COLONEL FISK IN THE BATTLE.
How He Went into the Fight-HOw He Got
Wounded and How He Escaped from

From the New York World of the fourteenth
While at his office in the Grand Opera
House. he received another message from
Lieutenant Colonel Braine, saying the regi-
ment had been ordered to Twenty-eighth
street and Eighth avenue, and was march
ing out. Colonel Fisk fastened back to his
carriage, and ordered the driver to take
him with all speed to his regiment. The
dav being excessively warm, he had taken
off his coat, belt and side arms, and I'M
luckily they were left behind. He found
the Ninth regiment in position on the left,
and in a very short time the colonel
had resumed command, standing at the
head of his regiment coatless, and his
shirt sleeves pulled up. He dispatched an
orderly to bring his coat and sword, and III
the meantime he took Major HitchcOck's
sabre. that officer in turn taking the light
sword of one of the sergeants Colonel
Fisk was marching at the head of his regi-
ment, in his shirt sleeves, hourishing the
large sabre, when the first cackle of mus
kerry was heard in front Simultaneously
with that volley there seemed to come
whole shower Of stones and bricks at the
Ninth, and many of the men declared that
rifle shots were fired at them from the win
dows and the roofs. AT any rate. the UNI
fortunate Pryor, private in Company A,
who is now lying almost dead in a house
pletely shattered by ball which must
have been fired almost straight down, as it
entered just below the knee, and passed
through in a line toward the foot
AS the fire ran up the line of the Eighty
fourth regiment toward the head of the
Ninth, the first companies of the Ninth
wheeled, and Colonel Fisk and his officers
stood to the right, for the first company had
kneeled ready to fire. They discharged their
pieces without receiving any orders, and
the second company followed the example.
The mob appeared to be surrounding
Colonel Fisk and he was seen to raise his
sabre AS he did so rush was made, and
Colonel Fisk was soon after picked up out
of the gutter with his ankle di5lOcated. He
was carried into Bankers bakery, near
Twenty-fifth street, and placed on a sofa.
His adjutant followed him in and Surgeons
Pollard and Thompson were quickly by his
side. At first the surgeons thought he had
been struck by spent ball or piece of
rock His left ankle was out of. shape, and
it soon swelled badly.
After remaining in the house about an
hour and a half, the procession having
marched down, large crowd gathered
around the house in which Fisk was lying,
and, fearing an attack on the DOORS Colonel
Fisk was advised to retreat under cover.
He was accordingly provided with "a straw
hat and coat, and was carried out through
the back door to fence opening in another
street. close coach was waiting on the
outside, and the colonel being lifted over
and placed in the vehicle he was driven
away The surgeon had decided that the
sea breeze at Long Branch might accelerate
his recovery, and Colonel Fisk was there
fore driven to the dock, where he took the
boat for Sandy Hook.

Crops in Claiborne.
The Claiborne AdoOcate says:

The Claiborne 1doOcdte says:
Tn a short visit to the northern part of
the parish we have been enabled to form
some idea of the condition of the crops in
that section. Cotton is generally tolerably
GOOD. vet it is rather backward. Corn is
bad: there will not be enough made to sup
ply the wants of the parish.
The Homer Hiad presents more hopeful
view, and says:
During the past week the weather in
Homer has been very hot, with but little
rain: but all around through the parish IN
the direction of Dorchete, we see that the
crops are as good, if not better than they
have been for many years. The corn and
cotton are both in splendid condition.
prospects are indeed very Hattering'

The manner in which the spoils of re-
cent express robbery in Alabama were di-
vided by the robbers, who were cOlored,
shows in the case of one of the parties a sad
instance OF misdirected intelligence. None
of the gang could read, but after the safe
was broken open Alfred Crosby tore off the
ends of some of the packages, and soon dis
covered that the largest contained the small
est bills, and consequently the least money.
Therefore, in making the division, Alfred
proposed that two small packages should
count as one large one, to which the Others
readily acquiesced; and he then took care to
take his part in the small packages, thus
getting a double share of the booty.

which he represents that he has had on
storage with the defendants, since May %
last, eight hogsheads of sugar, and which
they refuse to deliver, except on the pay

which sum he is willing to pay. He there
fore prays that they may be ordered to de-
liver to him the aforesaid eight hogsheads
of sugar. or in default, the value thereof,
