TIC Fight Near Washington.

New YoRK, July 1.-THE Washington
Chronicle has accounts of the operations
about Washington.
Our cavalry under Major Fry, stubborn
" contested the advance of the enemy, re-
treating only when aanked by superior
numbers. On Sunday the fight lasted from
3 to 9 P. NJ, and we were driven only .
miles.
On Monday the rebels were kept at bay
or 3 miles out of TennallytOwn.
The force on our front is estimated at
at several thousand.
The President and Secretary of war were
present encouraging the troops.
About P. NJ. the rebels advanced to-
ward Fort Stevens, about miles from the
city. Their sharpshooters got within 300
or 400 yards of the Fort. The 9th N. Y.
cavalry dismounted and drove them out of
the houses protecting them and then burn
ed the houses that proved as obstacles in
the range of our guns. Other regiments
arrived and drove the rebels back a half
mile. Towards P. NJ. the veterans from
the fighting 9Th corps advanced and drove
the rebels mile and half.
WASHINGTON, July 3.-Skirmishing had
been constantly going on and our troops
had acted strictly on the defensive, until
yesterday evening, when the rebel sharp
shooters becoming annoying, it was de-
termined to dislodge them from front of FIT.
Stevens. This was effectually accomplished
amid the shouts and applause of those VINO
witnessed the action. The rebels retired
in hot haste, leaving at the house F. p.
Blair, Silver Springs, hundred of their
wounded, including eleven officers and
their dead upon the field. A reconnois-
sance this morning showed that the rebels
had disappeared during the night from
front of our corporations, after firing a
number of buildings they had previously
occupied as a shelter to their sharPshoOters.
Scouts report the rebels crossing the
Potomac nearly opposite POolesVille, driv-
ing before them about 1000 head of cattle
which they had stolen, while "A dispatch
received by Halleck from Rockville, says
the retreating rebels passed through that
place at 3 O'Clock this morning, moving in
the direction of Edwards Ferry.
The rebels near Bladensburg moved of
this morning, taking the road westward and
carrying with them number of horses,
cattle, &C., stolen in that neighborhood.
Several squads of rebel prisoners were
brought in to-day and taken to the old
capitol.
Our killed and wounded yesterday
amounted to about 200.

Additional News from Baltimore.
BALTIMORE, July I4.-Trsins are run
ming as usual this morning TO Washington.
When Gen. Franklin was captured he
was seated in the car by the side of 3
Lieut.. Col, when q rebel officer came up
and asked the Col. if he was Franklin, the
officer replied that he was not. The rebel
then asked Franklin, who disclosed himself,
feeling convinced he had been pointed out
by one of the passengers In few moments
a gentleman came in and told Franklin he
must consider himself his prisoner. The
General was then put into q carriage aud
taken to ReisteFtown where they stopped
for the night. The General feigned sick
ness and sleep and waited until his guards
were asleep. he then made the best of
his way, as near as he could, 10 the direc-
ton of the city for three quarters of an
hour, when being broken down with
fatigue, be crept into a thick wood and re-
manned the balance of the night aud all
the next day, frequently seeing rebels
scouting for him. About sunset, being
nearly famished, he ventured out and short
ly met some men, who proved to be friends,
one of whom took him to his house and
finally provided means for the General to
to reach the city.

B6rA HINTeTo THE FRIENDS OF So1<
DIERs.-The great difficulty, in such ar
duous and protracted campaigns as are
those of the armies under Generals Grant
and Sherman, which our brave BOYS at
the front experience in obtaining writing
materials, suggests the necessity of sup
plying their wants in this way by the at
tentions of friends at home. Let every
one who has correspondent in the army
take the pains to enclose IN his letter a
sheet of writing-paper and an envelope,
carefully directed for the reply of his sol-
der friend. The latter must oftentimes
write his letters with lead pencil, and
an envelop similarly addressed is liable
to loss or miscarriage from the indistinct-
ness OF the direction. Every one who
has ever experienced the privations of ac-
tive campaigns will appreciate fully the
force of these suggestions.
