OCA MATTERS.
OBrruary Norices.—As we are almost
«daily in receipt of lengihy obituary notices
we must beg leave to once more remind our
friends that we cannot publish them unless
paid for in advance, We cannot spare the
room to the exclusion of other matter mare
interesting and more profitable. Obituaries
are seldom of much interest to any save the
immediate friends of the deceased, and they
certainly do not add anything to the general
interest of a paper. Besides we do not con-
sider it altogether fair to ask the printer to
publish ¢ free gratis for nothing,” matter
which should be paid for the same as ad
vertisements, We therefore, give notice
that obituary notices, exceeding six lines,
will hereafter be charged for. The printer
must make a living as well as other folks,
and if he cannot do it out of his legitimate
busmess he had better shut up shop. It is
direct imposition to ask him to print mat
wers in his paper which interest no one but
the parties concerned, for nothing, and the
sooner the public is made aware of this fact
the better. We are always happy to publish
anything in reason, but when we are asked
to give up a half a eolumn er three guarters
‘of a column of our paper for the purpose of
extolling the virtues, real or supposed, of
somebody whom nobody else knows any-
thing about, we most respectfully beg leave
to enter our protest.
All obituaries, not exceeding six lines,
which are handed to us for insertion, will be
publiched ; but anything over this, will
«come under the same regulations that gov~
«ern us in our other advertising,

Epirors oF tie WarcHmax :—1 visited
the Pennsylvania sick soldiers yesterday in
the General Hospital, Judiciary Square, in
Washington city, and took their vames; a
hundred ani twenty eight in number. Sev-
eral of them were brought from Yorktewn a
few days ago, I ascertained thata man from
Centre county, died in the morning; his
name is Wm. H. Confer, Company A., 49th
Regt. I have no knowledge of his family
cconnecticns, or I would write to them. An
announcement of his death in your paper,
would probably reach them. Any informa-
tion respecting arrearages of pay, &ec., I
cannot give to day, as the persons in charge
were too busily engaged, but will return to-
morrow and get all particulars.
It may be gratifying to the friends of sick
soldiers to know, that they are well cared
for. As to cleanliness of wards, beds, ten
der careful nursing, faithful stewards, the
skillful and attentive Surgeons, in the sev
eral hospitals cannot, I think, be too highly
commended.

“* GAVE HS AUTHORITY.” —There are per-
sons who seem to think that editors regard
it ag one of the greatest intellectual luxuries
to *¢ pitch inte ”” somebody and they suppose
‘themselves to have conferred a great favor
by furmshing belligerent con tribations, in
which some person, corporation or society
is soundly abused. Such people may take
a hint from the following :
A noted chap once stepped into the sane:
tum of a venerable and highly respectable
editor, and indulged in a tirade against a
citizen with whom he was on bad terms.
«T wish,” said he, addressing the man
with the pen, ** that yon would write a very
severe article against R——, and put it in
your paper.”
“Very well;’ was the reply.
The next morning he came rushing into
the office in a violent state of excitement.
“What did you put into your paper ? I
have had my nose pulled and been kicked
twice.” :
I wrote a severe article as you desired,”
calmly replied the editor, “and mentioned
your name as my authority for it.”

I~ The dry weather we are having has
made the streets very dusty; so mach so
in fact that it is quite unpleasant to be on
the streets, when any vehicles are passing
along. We think our town council should
provide some means by which the dust may
be kept down, and we only repeat a sug-
gestion we heard the other day, when we
remar that a ‘ street sprinkler” would be
a good institution. Here is a chance for
some. enterprising young fellow to make
something. Let him start a sprinkler and
make the citizens pay him so much per
month. We think it would pay all around.
Don’t all speak at once ! :
P. 8.—Since the above was penned, a
geatle shower has laid the dust, and rein~
vigorated all nature. But dry weather will
00D come again, and by that time we hope
to see the ** sprinkler ” ready.

Parer Mape FROM CorN Leaves. —The
London Mechanics’ Magazine states that ex
cellent paper is now made in Europe from
the leaves of Indian corn. There is ore pa-
per mill in operation in Switzerland, and
anoth:r in Austria, in which paper is made
from such leaves exclusively. ‘The huskS
which envelop the ears of corn make the
best quality. As we are dependent upon
Europe, in a great measure. for our supply
of rags to make our paper, if we can obtain
as good qualities from Indian corn leaves,
we may yet become the manufacturers of
paper for the whole world, as the greatest
supply of cheap raw material is found in
America. This is a subject-worthy of deep
attention, as we import rags to the value of
about $1,000,000, annually, ard paper man-
ufactures to the value of about cue million
dollars.

SkEDADDLE —Since the war commenced
the above word has been introduced into our

the seceshers, we say ** we skedaddled 7 —
or, if they run from us, we say, * they ske-

General W. T. Sherman.
The Editor of the Cincinnati Gazette ac
cuses this gallant officer of suffering his di-
vision to be surprised on Sunday mormng
at Shilo, and ho'ds him responsible for the
blood shed on that signal day. He obrains
bis information from his correspondents,
who got theirs frown the fugitives, with
whom they herded under the bank of the
Tennessee river. The official report shows
the accusation to be entirely false. Tbe
two armies lay fronting each other for days
like two adverse lions, each waiting the fa-
voratle mcment for a bound. A battle was
certain, but neither knew which would be
the assailant, On Sunday morning General
Sherman’s pickets were driven in. He could
not know whether it was a general attack or
a reconoissance in force, but he was imme-
diately on horseback. rod« to the spot, and
proved it to be a movement of the whole re-
bel furce. He gave notice to the commanl-
ing General and the Geuerals of divisions,
and had his men all drawn out and srranged
them in order of battle before the enemy ap
proached within striking distance. He was
ready for the fight, and no one denies that
he and the great mass of his division fought
it out bravely. - But owing to the unlucky
capture of Gen. Prentiss with a large body
of his troops, and the flight of masses of his
own men, General Sherman's position was
so weakened that he could uot main
tain it, but, in the course of the days fight
fell back and took a second and afterwards
a third position, which he and the brave |
fellows who fought under his command held
the enemy in check until reinforcemeuts ar.
rived, He vas twice wounded —~had three
horses shot under him, the brave fellows
who remained ard fought suffered terrible
loss, but they showed pluck; most of them
were raw recruits who had never seen ser-
vice, but they fought like veterans. But
here I differ with the Editor of the Gazette.
1 take sides with those that fonght—he with
those that ran. In choosing sides, however
I think the editor has been somewhat influ-
enced by the fact that General Sherman
belonged to the fighting not to the running
corps. The manner in which he dealt with
correspondents who intruded themselves
as spies into his camp has not been forgetten
or forgiven. Indeed that band of worthies
have ever since waged a most vigouroas
war against Gen. Sherman, and were more
likely at one time overpower him than was
the rebel army at Shiloh.
They were a class of adversaries which
neither courage nor conduct could enable
him to resist. Ariosta, in his account of
the expedition of Rinaldo to the enchanted
Isle, has him assailed by lions, tigers, bears
and dragons, all of which he repels bravely
—at last he is set upon by an numerable
host of snapping turtles, against which
sword and spear and shield were unavailing,
and he would have been pulled down and
muddled to death bad he not been saved by
magic. ‘I'he bearing of General Sherman in
this hard fought field—-the skill and tact and
courage, which he displayed, the unanimous
approbation of his brother officers and of
the men who fought with him, or under him,
and the strong commendation of the comman-
der in chief of the division, have done all for
him, which, in the fancy of the poet, magic
could do for the half vanquished Paladin.

DEFEAT OF GEN. BANKS!
HE FALLS BACK TO HARPER'S FER-
RY AND MARTINSBURG:
Great Excitement in Baltimore,
WasHINGYON, May 25.
Dispatches received by the War Department
state that Gen Banks was attacked at Winchester
this morning, and has fallen back towards Mar-
tinsburg and Harper's Ferry.
The enemy are reported to be in large force,
and many rej orts state that the rebel force has
left Richmond and moved North to take the offen-
sive.
[secoNp pispArca.]
WasmiNgroy, May 25.—The enemy under
Gens. Ewell und Johnston, with a superior force.
gave battle to Gen Banks this morning at daylight
at Winchester. (Gen Banks fought them six hours
and then retired in the direction of Martinsburg,
with what loss is anknown.
The enemy are, it is understood, advancing
from Winchester upon Harper's Ferry. Our
troops there are being rapidly reinforced. Ru-
mors say that Jackson is advancing to support
Ewell ana Johnston, and there are also state-
ments that still another force is behind him —
Prompt means have been taken to meet these
emergencies, if truly reported.
A dispatch received to night states that Gen.
Banks has made good his retreat acyyss the Po-
tomac at Wil liamsport.
Gen. Rufus Saxton is in command at Hatper’s

[THIRD DISPATCR ]
MarriNssurg, Va., May 25—2.40 rp. M —The
rebels attacked us this morning at daybreak in
great force. Their number was estimated at fif-
teen thousand, consisting of Ewell’s and Jack-
son’s divisions. The fire of pickets began at day-
light and was followed by the artillery until the
lines were fully under fire on both sides.
The left wing stood firmly holding its ground
well, and the right wing did the same for a time,
when two regiments broke the lines under the
fire of the enemy. The right wing fell back and
was ordered to withdraw, and the troops passed
through the town in considerable confusion.—
They were quickly reformed on the other side,
and continued their march in good order to Mar.
tinsburg, where they arrived at 2.40 r. »., a dis
tance of 22 miles.

Bavrrivore, May 25.—The announcement that
Col. Kenly had not been killed in the rebel at-
tack on Front Royal was received with shouts of
applause by the crowds of Union men who throng-
ed the newspaper bulletins this morning. The
Secessionists, having been imprudent enough to
exult over the defeat of Co. Kenly and his prob-
able death, produced an intense excitement
amoug the Union men. A few moments since a

Bacrimore, May 25. —Two members of
Kenley’s regiment have arrrived in this city
and report they were attacked by a large
cavalry force under Ashby and several regi-
ments of infantry and twice repulsed them
with great loss. Kenly’s force consisted ot
the First Maryland regiment, one section of
Knapp’s Pennsylvania battery, three compa-
nies ot the Twenty ninth Pennsylvania
and while the fizht was progressing, two
companies of the New York cavalry came to
his assistance.
The fight commenced at 12 o'clock and
continued up to night, when the mfantry
anul force succeeded in surrounding them. —
The first tight and repulse tonk place east
of the Shenandoah, and finding the force too
great, he retreated to the west side, des.
troying one of the bridges, but was too
hotly pursued to succeed in destroying the
principal bridges. .
He wade another stand on the west side of
the river, and Knapp’s battery mowed the
enemy down with shell and grape. They
fired ir all nearly two hundred rounds.
Col. Kenly received a musket shotin the
neck during the first attack, but continued
on horseback until the close of the day,
when he was placed in an ambulance, per.
fectly exhausted.
The last fight took place about four miles
this side of Front Royal, his effort being to
fall back in order—expecting reinforce-
ments momentari'y from Gen. Banks,
A member of Knapp’s battery, who esca
ped, says that the Maryland regiment fought
with indomitable bravery, and that Col.
Kenly led them on, frequently to bayonet
charges.
He also states that on the third approach
of Ashby he displayed the white flag until
within pistol range, when Col. Kenley or-
dered to cease firing. The flag was then
thrown down, and the enemy rushed on our
troops, cutting and slashing, and refusing
quarter.
Lieut. Col. Dushane and Major Muller
are both reported wounded and prisoners.
