BEDFORD GAZETTE. B. P. MEYERS, EDITOR. FRIDAY, : : : i : : ! MARCH 11, 1862. THE SACRAMENT OF TUF. LORD'S SUITER will lie administered (D. V.) in the Presbyterian Church of this place, on next Sabbath. This notice is inserted for the information of mem bers of the church living at a distance from the village. "No Party." The "Republican" leaders, last summer and fall, were great sticklers for the "no party" movement.. "Let us lay aside political dif ferences and be a united people until the Un ion is restored and Secession put down," was their cry prior to the last general election. How soon their policy is changed ! Nay, how hol low and decoitful were their pretensions of wil lingness to "bury party." Now, they are loth to vote for any Democrat. Even Union Dem ocrats like John Scott, of Huntingdon, who help ed them into office in the organization of the .Legislature, cannot satisfy their exacting punc tiliousness on the subject of "loyalty." And here, in our own borough, this feeling of hatred toward Democrats, crops out quite boldly of late. In the "Republican" caucus, last Mon day night, several of the would-be leaders of that party in this place, declared that they "did not vote for Democrats;" that it was distasteful to them ; and one of them said that he had done so once, or twice, but he did not feel like doing it again. Yet it is expected by these bitter pnrtizans that some good-natured Democrats in our borough, will help one or more of their candidates out of the mud at the coming spring •lection. Tho Democrats have been in the majority in this borough for some six years, and during that time have always been liberal with their opponents in regard to the selection ofßorough officers. They have nearly always conceded tliem an equality in the School Board, and if the nominating caucus did not make such concession, there were always enough of kind, accommodating souls among the rank and fde that would "bolt" from the ticket and assist their enemies (always full of smiles and Obsequi ousness about election time) in defeating their Democratic opponents. Our Democratic friends liave also opened their hearts, on several occa sions, and made the "Republican" minority a present of the office of High Constable, when j good men in our own ranks desired the position. | But how is all this kindness requited ? Do tho j "Republican" leaders show any appreciation ol'i the sacrifice of the men and principles of the Democracy made out of pure generosity toward their weak minority? Not a sign of it. On the contrary they insult us for our liberality, and attempt to fix a shameful stigma upon as pure and upright a patriot as can l>e found in the Democratic ranks. They repudiate the com promise we offer them, call our candidates traitors, despise and hate us when we would lie on neighborly terms with them, and act as though we were unfit to be their associates in any po sition. Will the Democracy of Bedford borough submit to this treatment, and like whipped dogs, lick the hand that smites them? Have we no pride in our party, no love for its integrity, no respect for its organization, no regard for the honor and dignity of its name? For shame's sake, for consistency's sake, for principle's sake, for the sake of what wo believe true and right in matters of political opinion, lot us stand to gether in solid column and rebuke the insolence of these ingratcs whose favorites we have warm ed into life in our own boHorns! 0. E. Shannon, Esq, On Saturday niglit Inst, the Democrats of Bedford Borough nominated the above named •gentleman, in connexion with Messrs. Geo. lily mire, S. L. Russell and John Taylor as candi dates for the office of School Director. Messrs. Russell and Taylor are Republicans. On Mon day night following, the "Republicans" held a caucus and nominated Messrs. S. 1,. Russell, John Taylor, S. 11. Tate and Geo. lilymire for the same office, throwing overbonrd Mr. Shannon, because as was alleged by several of the lenders, heis "disloyal 1" The refusal of the Republicans" to accept Mr. Shannon, after the Democrats had gone so far as to nominate two of the most strenuous and uncompromising "Re publicans," is an outrage upon the Democracy of Bedford, which cannot be overlooked or ex cused. Mr. Shannon is a reputable, upright, law-abiding, Constitution lovingcitizen, and has never dono any thingto merit this mark of Cain which some of the Republican fanatics desire to fix upon him. " For our own part, we were anxious to keep School affairs out of polities, but, as the "Republican" caucus would have it otherwise, we say let the issue be made and let it Re made thoroughly and in earnest. Hie Dem ocrats extended the olive branch and have been returned a dagger. Shall it not be taken up and sent home 1 Shall one of our best citizens be stricken down and branded as "disloyal" to grat fy thcwhiins of a few crazy, maglignant fanat ics T Citizens of Bedford Borough! will you, can you, refuse to do justice in this matter 1 WRKMOVAI.. —Owing to some repairs being done to the law office of Messrs.

Russell and Taylor, "-Republicans," as candidates for School Directors. The "Republicans" refusing to accept the compromise on School Directors tendered tliem, the Democrats re-assembled on Tuesday night, struck the names of Russell and Taylor from the ticket and nominated I lon. Job Mann and Mr. J. M. Shoemaker in their stead. The Democratic ticket for School Directors, now consists of O. E. Shannon, Geo. Blymire, Job Mann and J. M. Shoemaker; four as good men as can lie found anywhere and "loyal" into the bargain. Bedford Township Democratic Ticket. Constable —Thomas Boogie. Justices —William C. Wisegarver, Ephraim Koontz.

CAMP PATTERSON, March 4. 1802. MR. EDITOR: To relieve the monotony of camp life con sequent upon the inclemencies of the weather, your humble correspondent taketh his pen iu hand to commit some unimportant news to pa per, hoping it may prove interesting to your readers, especially those that know little, or nothing, about the hardships of a soldier's life, of which, however, Idonot complain, as it is the lot of soldiers to be exposed to the inclemencies of the weather. Tito weatherfor the last, few days has been anything but agreeable. With the exception of Sunday last, the sun has not cheered us With his presence (except an hour or two a day) tor almost a week. March, too, is (it seems), determined to keep up herVeputation as a stormy month as the recent high winds testify. Last night set in dark and rainy. A bout seven o'clock there was lightning accompa nied by thunder, and, by nine o'clock, the rain commenced coming down in torrents and the wind blew u perfeet hurricane. Such a rain and wind I have not seen since I came here, and there was almost Egyptian darkness. The wind stretched several tents on the ground, chasing the poor fellows out in the rain; hut the tent occupied by your humble correspon dent, stood the storm bravely. On waking up however he. found his head and feet both in water, which you may be sure was not very a greeable. Our canvass tents will turn a common rain, but that last night, was an uncommon one. It came in splashes and surges and sifted thro' with all ease. The poor soldiers 011 guard last night, were the most pitiable looking objects im aginable. Wo have an occasional incident on guard that helps to pass the weary hours away and lightens our cares {'or a while. One will sullice. A few nights ago the officers going the rounds were suddenly stopped hy a burly Dutch man who cried out "Halt! who comsh dare?" "Grand rounds with the countersign," was the reply "Grant rounts to —What do they want mit dc gountersign dish tiino of night!" said the sentinel. There are a great many (f )lying reports cir culated through the .Regiment, with regard to its ultimate destination, but only one that has obtained any credence whatever, and that is that we will leave here shortly and move to the seat of Wnr. This is pretty generally believ ed here, and seems plausible. The health of the Regiment still continues good. So does the health of the Bedford Ooun ty boys, some of whom have just returned from a visit to your county. They speak very 1 ugli ly of their reception and treatment while there. We were out on Ucgimcntal inspection and mus tered in for pay again last Friday. It is hard telling when we will get paid again, though. Your excellent paper was welcomed here a gain, yesterday, and its contents eagerly de voured. If I thought it would lie interesting to you and your readers, I would send yon a list of the names of the officers and privates of the company to which we belong. Perhaps I may risk it at some future period. More a non. Yours truly, * BLOODY RUN. RAY'S HIIX, March 3rd, 18G2. MR. MEYERS :—Sir: Enclosed, I send you one dollar and fifty cents, for a copy of the Gazette. There are few county papers that have with stood the contest during the present calamitous situation of our country with the same zeal and courage as the Gazette of old Bedford. There are a few Democrats yet in our part of the county that have not defiled their gar ments with nor bowed the knee to Abolition ism. Democrats in this part of the county are be ginning to see that the title is honorable, and, that to secure the prosperity and general wel fare of the country, it is absolutely necessary that the organization should be respected and upheld. The Democrats in this township, though few in number, hold bravely on their course and mean to become worthy of the appellation, "untcrrificd," applied to the faithful in days past, and, in the firm belief of the rectitude of our cause, intend to remain firm to the organi zation of the party. God grant that the cloud that covers the a trocious crimes of those engaged in speculations upon the Government funds, and, those engag ed in robbing, as it were, the public Treasury he removed and that the people may be con vinced that the cause of the Democratic }>arty should bo the cherished cause of every true A meriean citizen. EAST PROVIDENCE. I \U RJIEWS. A Severe Naval Engagement. The steamer Adelaide, Captain Cannon, ar rived at half-past nine o'clock yesterday morn ing, from Old Point, having left the latter place at eight o'clock on Saturday night. She brought the important intelligence of an engagement be tween several United States and Confederate vessels in Hampton Roads, between the mouth of James river and Sewall's Point. The news, soon after the arrival of the Adelaide yester day morning, created quite a sensation, and an confess variety of exaggerated reports were put in circulation. It appeared, after careful inquiry, that pas sengers who came up in the Adelaide, and seem ed to bo intelligent, stated that the Confederate steamer Merrimac came out at one o'clock on Saturday afternoon, while the Federal frigates Congress and Cumberland were lying off New port Newspoint. She headed for the Congress, which opened a broadside on her without any perceptible effect. She passed the Congress when the Cumberland opened a broadside on her, but that likewise had no injurious effect, and in a few minutes more the Merrimac struck the Cumberland amidship, and so crushed in her side that she sunk in a few minutes. It was reported that one hundred and fifty of those on board were known to have been saved, but how many were lost was not known. The Merrimac next turned her attention to the Congress, which had not ceased to fire on her, and after a short engagement captured her and all on board. The officers and crew of the Congress were sent to Pig's Point and the Con gress was immediately manned by Confederates. The frigate St. Lawrence was engaged by the Confederate steamers Jamestown and Pat rick Henry and is said to have been disabled and run ashore in a sinking condition. The steam frigate Minnesota left Old Point to join in the engagement, when the Confeder ates turned the guns of the Congress against her, but she grounded, and was still aground when the Adelaide left Old Point. The Con gress, after her capture, was found to be in a sinking condition, and her captors fired and burned her. The steam frigate Roanoke also started to take part in the engcgenient, but the haltery-at Sewall's Point opened against he.r and so dis abled her that she was obliged to put- back tin der canvas. Several smaller gunboats also started towards the seenc of aetion from Old Point, but withdrew. Cupt. Buchanan, for merly of the United States navy, ami a native of Maryland, was in the command of the Con federate, Beet. It was said by persons who came tip in the Adelaide that the conlliot was to have been renewed yesterday morning. The Congress and St. Lawrence were first class sailing frigates, each carrying fifty guns. The Cumberland was a first-class sloop-of-war, carrying twenty-two guns, and the Minnesota and Roanoke are first class steam frigates, eaeh carrying forty guns, besides which the Minne sota carries two heavy pivot guns. The wholo engagement, was of but a few hours duration. We have a list of the names of the officers attached several months ago to the. U. S. ves sels YY-liich participated in the engagement, but since it was made out so many changes have taken place that we omit it until we are able to give it in a more correct form. The Congress, which carries 50 guns, is of 1,667 tonnage, and was built at Kitterv, Me., in 1811. The Cumberland carries 24 guns; YY-as built at Charlestown, Mass., iu 1842. She is of 1,726 tonnage. The St. Lawrence Yvas built at Gosport, Va., an 1847. She carries 50 guns, is of 1,726 ton nage. She is commanded by (.'apt. llugh Y. Purviance, of Baltimore, and some time since engaged and sunk the Confederate privateer Sa vannah, off Charleston harbor. She was engag ed for about six months in blockading Southern ports, but returned to New York on the Bth nit., ffir temporary repairs. The Roanoke was also built at Gosport hi 1855. She is of 8,400 tonnage. From the Upper Potomac. Retreat of the Rebels f rom Tscsbury—The Ton n and fortifications Occupied bp the federal forces —Many prisoners and Stores Taken. Poolesville, March B.—Brig. Gen. S. Williams, Washington : Lcesburg was entirely evacuated ysrtcrday morning by tbe rebels, and the reports arc that Col. Geary's advance is there. N. J. T. DANA, Brigadier General. ' LATER. LEESBUHO, VA., March B.—Col. Geary has ta ken Lecsburg, and driven Gen. Hill with his whole rebel command from the town and sur rounding forts. The "Stufs and Stripes" now wave over the enemy's works. Gen. Hill's army fell hack towards Middlcbtug. Last night Col. Geary left Lorettsville with his command, and marched through Wheatland and Waterford, taking prisoners at both places and putting the scattered forces of the enemy to flight. Shortly after sunrise this morning lie took poss ession of Fort Johnson, which was renamed la the officers "Fort Geary." He then entered the town with flags flying and lmvonots fixed. The rear of the rebel troops, who hud thought this one of their greatest strongholds, could be discerned through a glass retreating. Thecommnnii took many prisoners and stores, and are in possession of the bank, post-office and public buildings. Forts Beauregard and E vans were also taken. This brilliant achievement by a well tinted blow and skillful movement, is of vast impor tance. The command is well and in good spirits. A detachment of the First Michigan Cavalry did much service under Col. Geary in this move ment. Important From New Mexico- Desperate Hut tie Ten .Miles Soat/fyf Fort Craig- Qreat TMSS on Doth Sides. DENVER CITY, Friday, March 7, via Jnlesburg, Saturday, March Bth.—The following news was received here to-day by military express : A desperate and terrible battle, lasting all day, took place at Valvevde, ten miles south of Fort Craig, on the 21st of February. The fight was probably resumed again on the 22d. The loss is great on both skits. Both parties claim the victory. A regiment of New Mexicans, commanded by Col. Pantofl, ran away. Capt. Mcßca, who had charge of our artilery, and every one of Ids command were killed at their post, and their cannon was taken by the rebels. Kit Carson was within 15 miles of Fort Craig. Firing was heard from his direction, with what result was not ascertained at the time the messenger left. The Latest From Old Point. Arrival of the Federal Iron-Clad Gunboat Mon itor—She is Attacked by the Merrimac, James town and Yorktmon—The Merrimac Driren Off and Put Back to Norfolk in a Sinking Condi tion. - [OFFICIAL] WASHINGTON, March 9th, 7 P. M.—The tel egraph line to Fortress Monroe was completed this evening, and the following dispatch has just been received by the government: Fortress Monroe, March 9, P. M.—The Erics son iron-clad gunboat Monitor arrived here last night. Early this morning she was attacked by the three vessel#, the Merrimac, Jamestown and Yorktown. After a five hours' contest they were driven eft—the Merrimac in a sinking con dition. Some skirmishes have taken place in Missouri and Arkansas, in which the Confederates under Price have been successful. They surprised Capt. Montgomery's company at Kietsville, kill ing only two and wounding one, according to the report.. They then fled, but managed to cany off with them seventy horses. In the same vicinity two wagons loaded with army stores were burned by the Confederates. The New Orleans papers are as belligerent as ever. The Delta calls upon men who feel alarmed about their property to defend it with the sword. The Crescent declares that if the Southern cities are taken, the people will retire to the mountains and swamps, and there maintain a warfare which must ultimately prove successful. Sixty-two U nited States vessels are said to lie in the neigh borhood of Ship Island, and large bodies of Fed eral troops arc reported to have been landed on Britton and Chandelier Islands. From the Washington Star we learn that a skirmish took place near l'ohiek on Tuesday last, between a party of Texan Rangers and a com pany of Ilointzleman's division. The Star ac cuses the Lieutenant-Colonel in command of hav ing led his men into a trap? The Foderal loss is set down at three killed and one wounded. Among the former were a captain and a lieu tenant. 'llic Confederates are reported to be concen trating a large force on the Lower Potomac. It is believed that the Confederate army on the Po tomac has been largely reinforced since their re cent defeats in the South-West. On the Upper Potomac, Lcetown and Lovetts ville are announced to be in possession of the | Federal troops. The official despatch states that I the enemy is in full force at Winchester, and that formidable earthworks, mounting sixty guns have been constructed on this side of the town. The work on the railroad is progressing rapidly, every point between Harper's Ferry and Cum berland being strongly protected. Thcbridgcat the Ferry, it is supposed, will be completed in about ten days. Bunker Hill has been occupied by Federal troops as the extrome outpost on the west. Asbby's cavalry endeavored to cut oil' a part)- of Federal cavalry near Bcrryville, but failed in the attempt. A similar attempt was made to outflank Colonel Geary, near Lovctts ville, but the Confederates arc said to have been driven off without a battle. A feYV Confeder ate prisoners have been taken by scouting par ties.
