with the exception of few outposts,
which they had expected from the be-

The fighting continues between the
artillerymen principally and at dis

the rebels cannot take the town, but
that within a few hours the rebel,

moved that the prisoners be taken
from the town and tried elsewhere.
The attitude of the county was such,
