Cavalry, in the field, > Fairfax county, V'a., Sept. 18,1582. } To Mia. 11 'in. Mann ami other La-hex of KixhncobuiUa* Valley, Mifflin county, Pa. .- Ladies : —Having been requested by my Battalion to acknowledge the receipt of a costly and very beautiful flag, this day re ceived by the Ist Battalion of the Ist Reg iment of Penna. Reserve Cavalry, as a present from a number of ladies, residents of Kishaooquillas Valley, Mifflin county, Pa., as a token of their respect and appre ciation for the heroic and gallant manner in which the Ist Battallion conducted itself on that memorable occasion, theUth ol Au gust, 1862, at the sanguinary, terrific and terrible battle of Cedar Mountain ; and while 1 tender you, kind ladies, the sincere and heartfelt thanks of the Battalion for your splendid and most magnificent pres ent, F assure you in behalf of the officers and men of the Battaliou, (it affords me the greatest gratification to be able to do so) that their object, aim and desire will ever bo to protect, preserve inviolate, and respect that flag, not only for the sake of our national emblem, and flattering compli ment displayed on its face, but for the sake of its fair donors, (Heaven bless them.) The bare knowledge of our being remem bered by our fair and loved ones at home, will ol itself be an incentive for us to press 011 in the performance of our duty, in ham stringing and annihilating this unholy and hell born rebellion. And when it shall be spoken of as a thing that was, and our glo rious old banner again floats in triumph wherever it did, then, and not till then, will \vc sheath our sabres and return to our peaceful homes, pleasant valleys, and happy firesi !cs, bringing with us (with the help of God) our flag, untarnished and undimtned, as an evidence of our right to the approving prayers and smiles of the. good and generous throughout our land, (and especially the ladies of Kishacoquil las \ alley.) Again, ladies, permit me, in behalf of the officers and men of my Bat tallion. to thank you kindly lor your lovely flag. It shall never want protection while a man of the Ist Battalion exists to swing a sabre, or a standard bearer, while there is a man left of the gallant Captain J. P. Taylor's company (every man ol' which I am prond of. and their friends have good reason to be) to take the place of the brave ami heroic sergeant Bonnet. In conclusion you will please pardon me for saying a word in reference to the other two Battalions of our Regiment, for whom I. entertain the highest esteem and regard, and it was simply owing to circumstances that they did not take so conspicuous a part as did the Ist at Cedar Mountain, 1 they being at the time detached in other parts id the field, where they rendered important service and where they would have been but too glad to have given a good aceou.: t ; handkerchiefs, dried peaches, 1 ean quinces, 1 cup jelly.

TERHIRLE ACClDENT.— Yesterday after noon about 4 0 clock, as Brower, son of the Pour House Steward, and another man were driving a one horse wagon down Market .street, a hog got under the horse near Graver's Hotel, causing him to ruu away. The animal was a powerful one, and young Brower held ou to the lines for some time, when he unfortunately jumped out and his leg becoming entangled in the lines he was dragged at full speed across the square, his head striking the stones with great force. His skull is badly bro ken, and he sustained other injuries which render his recovery extremely doubtful. He was removed to his father's residence at the Poor House. Mr. Brower lately lost a daughter, is himself sick at this time, and has now added another severe affliction. Relics from a Rebel Camp.

Lewistuwn, Mifflin co., Sept. 24, IBG2. Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil! I AM told that Samuel B. Haines has said to a number of Mifflin county farmers, that he made the same kind of horse power long since, which I am now making, (Helton's Patent) and that he found it was out good and abandoned it. and if any one doubts it he can show them tjie wheels. The object of (Jiis communication is to give a history of those wheels as related to me by those who claim to know the truth, as fellows: Lewis Wialer some years since brought to, this county a Pelton Horse Power. It was left in a place where 9ome one drove against it with a wagon and broke it. lie took it to Samuel B. Haines to get it repaired; Mr. Haines did not (perhaps could not) repair it, but set it in the cellar of his shop, where it remains, aud is what be shows as boing of his own make. This summer Lewis Wisler sold it to W. P. Graham, giving him an order for it, but Mr. llaines refused to deliver it. The inference is easily drawn. I have no objection to his making any kind of machines he bus a right to make; uor do 1 wish to di/ert his customers to myself in any way but by their own choice. If I make the best article the public will find it out for themselves; I leave them to judge. I am the sole agent of the Patentee, Saml.
