FROM SHERIDAN's ARNY.-A gentleman in
this city has received a letter from his frier
in the army OF Gen. Sheridan, from which we
extract the following:
1--WE thrashed Lomsx away from the Rapt-
dan, capturing his only two cannon. We at.
tackled the Gap ten miles from Cord ems Vile
the next morning, and think could have car
ried 1t. bat Gen. Torbert thought il would cost
too dear, particularly as the enemy were
bringing mp infantry, ard we csuld have ef-
fected nothing had we got in.
"1 see that Gen. Lee says that Lomax re-.
pulsed MS. The gallant cavalier knew better
than to attempt to follow the brave lads who
had chased him twenty miles, and had taken
every gun from him. i wouit have given a
months pay to have had him come down in
the plain.
1--WE all need rest and recuperauon badjy ."

mgui, but that kenmcky would ahol-
ish slavery by State action, though il
would rtquiIe at leas, seven years to-
do it. There happened 10 be quite
number Of darkies listening TO him.
and the idea Of seven years more Of
slavery was 50 dstasleiul to them,
that they concluded Immediately 10
take the short cut 10 freedom yia the
army. Accordingly they not only
went themselves, but got all their
neigbors 10 join them ia stampede
for the nearest recruiting station, and
the result was an accession Of more
than one hgndred sable recruits to the
army Of the Union.
One negro girl, about twerly years
old, was among Mr. Harlnns audi
tors, and She. was so badly frightened
Al hearing that the hour OF her free
dom, which she had long consoled
herself was Immediately 81 hand, was
yet seven years distant, that she start
ed in hot haste, TO the Office Of the
post eommandant, TO know il he would
not give her pass to 60 North. The
officer, who commands q colored regi-
ment, said he could not DO il; that IL
she was a slave she must stay with
her master until slavery was abolish
ed by law. But" said Dinah, lots
OF gals has gone Mort, slaves too. -
/" All, yes said the Colonel, "but
they did not 20 away until they mad
become free by marrying soldiers
They married some of my boys, aud
then they were free by the laws of
Congress, and had a right to 60 where
they pleased. If you will marry one
of these darkey boys dressed in blue,
you can so North or stay here, just
IS you please"
Dinah was tickled almost 10 death,
as the saying is, at this good news,
and told the Colonel that she always
intended to marry a "soger' any how.
After some further conversation be-
tween the two, the Colonel agreed TO
sen1 for squad of the best booking
colored warriors in his command, and
very soon the swathy lady was con-
fronted by about twenty as likely
looking African descenters as can be
found this side of the Atlantic. II
took her about five mi nutes TO select
a companion for life from the group,
and the bargain was Immediately rat
fed by the chaplain of the regiment
who united the twain in the holy bond
Of wedlock. This may be laughed
at as an impossible case of marrying
IN haste, but ] can assure the reader
that it is strictly and literally true.
