Bloody Affray at Washington--One
Man Killed and two Others Injured.
The neighhoring borough of Washington,
was on Wednesday last the scene of a dis
graceful affray, in which three persons were
shot, one of whom has, since died from his
injuries. The Review gives us the following
particulars
On last Monday evening the Ringgold
pinky arrived in-this place, and soon after
a portion of the company (we are glad to
know in opposition to the desire of a ma
jority of the company) commenced swear
ing vengeance against the "Copperheads."
aftar dirk a number of the Company
gistiared' in front of John Brady's Butcher
Shop, swearing vengeance against the "Brady
fouggy." However the whole thing passed
off without serious trouble.
About 9 o'cicck on Tuesday morning, a
difficulty occurred, the particulars of which
we have not been able to learn, when a
number of soldiers joined in the melee, and
copMlolllll4l ,._
. .. 4 4 fit* into Benj. Brady's ahop,
Mr. Brady returning the fire, when after the
exchange of a number of shots the affray
was stopped, but unfortunately not until our
.esteemed fellow-citizen David Wolf, who
was. Mending in Mr. Brady's door at the
time of the trouble, was shot through the
body,—a little son of J. D. M'Kahan also
shot through the body,—Benj. Porter shot
through the leg, and Beni. Brady slightly
wounded on the head.
About an hour afterwards as Benj. Brady
u returning home, accompanied by his
brother James and Phil. Koontz, passing
the Fulton House, where the Ringgolda
mere quartered, a number of soldiers com
menced firing upon them. Fortunately, al
though a number of shots were fired, "no
body was hurt.'
Mr. Wolf and little McKahan are both in
a very critical condition, but the physicians
in attendsuloe have hopes of their recovery.
IMPtthwe the above was written, Mr
Wolf has died.
Boys out at Night.
, The practice of allowing boys to spend
their evenings on the streets is one of the
most ruinous, dangerous and mischievious
things possible. Nothing so speedily and
surely makes their road downward. They
acquire under the cover of night the most
.pernicious habits, and become educated in
mischief, and in the use of profane and vul
gar language, and associate with the vicious
and depraved. Thousands of boys belong
ing to-irinthy families, who are permitted
_ sm
night , nightl to select their own com
pany of resort, are on the direct
roads, Confiding parents who believe
,
thocsons are safe—that they will not asso
ciate with the vicious—will one ot these days
have their hearts crushed, as thousands have
before, by learning that their sons whom they
toorded as proof against evil, have been
from early youth, on the road to ruin.. -
Again we say keep your boys at home at
tt, .unless you accompany them ycurselt.
,your homes such that your children
01 delight to spend their evenings there,
, t atetijoir will find your task a light one.

The Draft Probably Postpone&
The joint resolution flora the louse ex
tending the time for the payment of boun
ties, to April Ist, passed the Senate on the
8d inst.
Mr. Wilson, in calling it up, read a letter
from the Secretary of War which stated,
First. That in his opinion the requisite
number of troops could be raised more ex
peditiously by continuing the payment of
bounties to April Ist, tbs. by any other

Second. That great exertions are being
made in the several States to raise their
quotas by volunteering to avoid the draft—
the people preferring that mode of raising
troops.
Third. That Generals Burnside and Han
cock, the State Legislatures and Executives,
are earnestly requesting such continuance.
Fourth. That the measure was wise and
judicious, promotive of the public welfare
and calculated most efficiently and quickly
to strengthen our military force.
Of course the passage of this resolution, on
such recommendations, involves the post
ponement of the draft.

LATER FROM THE SOUTHERN COAST.
Important from Florida-Disaster to
Gen. Seymour's Expedition.
The steamer Fulton, Capt. Watton,
from Port Royal on Vednesday last,
arrived on Friday night, bridging in
formation, under Gen. Seymour, in
Florida. On the afternoon of the 20th,
our troops under Gen. Seymour, met
the enemy 15,00 strong, ,fifty-five miles
beyond Jacksonville, and eight miles
beyond Sanderson, on the line of the
Jacksonville and Tailahasse Railroad.—
The battle was desperately fought dur
ing three hours, and at sunset our forces,
overpowered by numbers, retired to
Sanderson, taking them the great
er part of the wounded. The 7th Con
necticut,7th New Hampshire, 40th Mas
sachusetts, 48th and 10th New York
and Bth United States were engaged.—
Coolnel Feibly, of the Bth United States,
was left dead on the flea Colonel
Reed, a Hungarian officer, was mortal
,ly wounded. All the officers of Hamil
ton's Battery were wounded. Capt.
Hamilton (wounded in the arm) and
Liet. Myrick (wounded in the foot) are
at General Gilmore's headquarters at
Hilton Head. Colonel Guy Henry, of
the 40th Massachusetts,had three horses
shot under him, but escaped unhurt.—
The Cosmopolitan arrived at Beaufort,
on Monday evening, with' 240 of the
' wounded, Col. Reed among them, who
was living when the Fulton left on ed,
nesday. The enemy's loss ;;,s not known.
They captured five guns. It is sup
posed that the troops were from Bragg's
army. General Hardee himself was on
the field, having come to Florida on a
visit to his family, and also to form a
second marriage. Our loss is variously
estimated at from 500 to 1,300
The Providence, Rhode Island, Jour
nal publishessa letter from Lieut. Eddy,
of the Third Rhode Island Battery, who
' participated in the late battle in Florida.
The letter is dated on board the hos
pital steamer Cosmopolitan, in Port
Royal Habor, February 22d, and says :
On Thursday morning, the 18th, we
left our camps at Jacksonville, in light
marching order, with ten days rations.—
We marched all day, and as the roads
were bad, we made only sixteen miles,
when we halted for the night. On Fri
day morning, the 19th, we started early,
and marching all day, made seventeen
miles, and stopped over night at a small
place called Barbers. On Saturday
morning, the 20th, at seven o'clock, we
started once more for a place called
Lake City, thirty-six miles distant, at
which, if we had succeeded in occupy
ing, we should have stopped, our sup
plies being sent to the Western armies
of the enemy. We marched eighteen
miles, when we met the enemy and
skirmished with them for the next four
miles, when we found that they were
in force and had formed 1 heir line of !
battle. .
Our columns were at once deployed,
and our advance was soon sharply en
gaed. Hamilton's battery was ordered
forward and four pieces of the battery,
included my section, were placed in po
sition within 150 yards qf the rebel lines
under a severe fire of
. rp.usketry. We
went in with four pieces, ; fifty horses,
eighty-two men and four officers, viz :
Captain Hamilton Lieutenant Myrick,
Lieutenant Dodge, and myself:
twenty minutes we lost forty-five men,
forty horses, two guns and four officers,
when we managed to get off witl;
what little we had left. It was our
misfortune to have for our support a
negro regiment, who by running, caus
ed us to lose our pieces. The fight
lasted three hours, when, finding his
small army so much cut up, the General
ordered a retreat. •We returned to
Jacksonville, fifty-eight miles distant,
and reached there last night at twelve
o'clock. We had five thousand men
engaged on our side, and lost twelve
hundred as near as I can learn.
The enemy had fifteen thousand men
opposed to us, and of course whipped
us oadly. Capt. Hamilton is wounded
in his left arm severely, and in the hip.
Lieut. Myrick is badly wounded in his
left foot, and will probably loose some
of his toes. Lieutenant Dodge is woun
ded in the left arm, but not badly. I
am wounded in the leg, about three
inches above the ankle joint, but not
badly. All of our officers had their
horses shot under us. We are now on
board of this steamer bound for Beau
fort, where all the wounded will be
landed, except us four officers. We re
turn to Hilton Head to-morrow. The
battery remained at Jacksonville, which
otherskf our forces will find it difficult
to hold, as the enemy are following us
closely: Taking everything together
we have done prettey sharp work in
ninety hours. We have marched one
hundred and ten miles, fought a battle
of thirty hous duration, and got whip
ped, and what there is left of our little
army is back again to where we started
from.
Arrival of Another of our Officers who
Escaped from Libby.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.—A letter from
he Army of the Potomac, says that
First Lieut. Scudamore, one of those
that escaped from Libby with Colonel
Streight and his party, came into our
lines last night, having been on the
way nineteen days. He intended to
proceed by the way of Gordonsville to
ward the Ohio river, thinking his chan
ces of getting away in that direction
better than by the Peninsula, as he felt
certain of being captured if he had gone
in the latter directiont
After traveling twenty-five miles, his
knees failed hisn,and he was forced to he
in a mud hole as he terms it, for nine
days, a negro taking care of him and
becoming his companion. When he
resumed his journey at another tune he
had to lie eoneesded three days, but

RETREAT OF LONGSTREET.
Pursuit of our, Troops-4. Skirmish—Dead.-
sorters taking the Oath--Longstreet on
his way to Richmond.
KNOXVLELE, Feb. 28.—At the.last ac
counts Longstreet was retreating,
his headquarters being at Greenville on
Wednesday night. Our cavalry came
upon his rear guard in the vicinity of
Bean's Station yesterday, and a slight
skirmish ensued, when the rebels gave
way.
Gen. Schofield is pursuing with his
troops, but owing to the rapid retreat
of the enemy no engagement is expect
ed this side of the Virginia line. The
railroad bridge at Strawberry Plains
and the tracks were injured beyond the
possibility of present use.
Five officers and a number of men
ieserted when Longstreet fell back and
have taken the Amnesty oath. The of
ficers state that he is retreating to-Rich
mond with his original troops leaving
Johnston and Buckner to protect the
Virginia border.
Last Hours of the Rebel Congress.
The Richmond Examiner of the 22d
says: "The last hours of Congress
which deceased at the Capital on Thurs
day, at twelve o'clock, was not the
calm and tranquil consciousness of a
life well spent, and good deeds done.
The body writhed in the throes of ex
piring debates on Wednesday night,
over a bill to repeal the section of the
military bill relative to farmers. Mem
bers, whose sands of political life were
fast running out, delivering themselves
of their last speeches and fell back speech
less into seats that were soon to know
them no more forever. Others con
scious of the approach of their last
hours, set their desks in order and clear
ed their political house of old bills, loose
stationary, &c., each administering up
on his own estate. Charley Hunt (the
"brevet major,") of "Our House," was
the gastronomic and spiritual underta
ker on the occasion, and served up, in
an ample room, the last supper of
doomed members, who solaced their
grief in slices of boned turkey and
bumpers of French brandy. The scene
was affecting 4eed, audeaanot be de
scribed in this Brief obituary notice.—
Requkceat in pace.
The Danish War.
The New York Tribune concludes an
article reviewing the Danish war, in the
following language :
"It is now fully certain, that if Aus
tria and Prussia should be still willing
to effect any kind of a compromise, by
Virtue of which the Kincr z' of Denmark
would remain Duke of Schleswig and
.11olsteine ' no power of Europe will in
terfere in favor of the Danes: But on
this point the two German Powers be
gin to express themselves with great
equivocation. * * * * The decis
ion of the Austrian and Prussian Gov
ernment on this question is awaited with
great impatience. They find them
selves in a very embarrassing dilemma.
If they support the people of the Duch
ies in their claim for independence, the
possibility of a European war again
draws near. If they refuse to support
these claims, they make all the minor
Governments of Germany and the im
mense majority of the German people
their mortal enemies. In either case
thedecision will produce a sensation in
Europe, which, as we are assured from
nearly every European country, con
tinues to watch the development of the
Danish war with unabating interest.
Our Reversein Florida.
The coriespendent of the New York
Times with Oen. Seymour's army says
that the reverse the haye suffered in
the interior will by no means decide who
shall have posession of Florida. Neith
er does it terminate our operations in the
State. Before many days, the enemy
will be convinced of our determination
to act in that direction, andhe may pos
sibly meet a foe whose .strength he little
suspects.
Reinforcements are basteninfforward,
and no apprehensions need be felt as to
the ability of our troops, not only. to hold
their ground, but to administer to the
rebels the severest threshing .they have
yet suffered, should they open an at
tack. Our present position is in front
of Jacksonville, six .or• eight n3iles from
that place.
Stirring News at Hand.
It is stated on high . authority, says
a Washington dispatch, that the Army
of the Potomac is advancing on Rich
mod again, and the recent hasty retreat
of Longstreet is in consequence of Gen.
Lee's inability to stand without rein
forcements. Mead's advance may pre
vent reinforcements leaving Leo's array
for Georgia. It is certain that great
movements are now going on. This
much may be said without getting on
contraband ground, stirring news is at
band.
Fire and Loss of Life.
A dispatch from Sedalia, March 2d,
says a fire broke out about two o'clock
on that morning, in the Missouri Hotel,
and spread so rapidly that many of the
inmates escaped only by jumping from
the windows. Five persons are known
to have been killed, among them the
wife and daughter of the proprietor of
the hotel, T. W. Greasham. Several
buildings west, and one whole block
east of the hotel were consumed. ,The
loss is estimated at $lOO,OOO, to $150,-
000, with but tittle insurance. The
fire was undoubtedly the work of an
incendiary.
air The total loss at the battle of
Chickamauga on the part of the Feder
alists was 17,209. The total loss of the
Confederates was 19,000. The time
consumed in fighting was sixteen hours

From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D., Editor of
the Encyclopedia of Religious Knoutkdge. :
Although not disposed to favor or recommend Patent
Medicines in general, through distrust of their ingredi
ents and effects; I yet know of no sufficient reasons
why a man may nut testify to the benefits he believes
himself to have received from any simple preparation,
in the hope that he may thus contribute to the benefit
of others.
I do this the more readily in regard to Hooßand's
German Enters, prepared by Dr. G. if Jackson. of this
city, because I was prejudiced against Wear for many
years, under the impression that gluey memo/Mr/1 an
alcoholic mixture. lam indebted to my friend, iksbert
Shoemaker, Esq., for the removal af this prejudice by
proper tests, and for encouragement to try them, whin
suffering from great and long continued debility. Tho
use of three bottles of these Bitten, at the beginning of
the present year, was followed by evident relief, and
restoration to a degree of bodily and mental vigor
which I had not felt for six months before, and bad
almost despaired of regaining. I therefere thank God
and my friend for directing me to the use of them.
Phila., June 23, 'l2. J. N, BROWN.
ATTENTION SOLDIERS I
AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS
We call the attention of all having friends in UM
army to the fact that "DOOFLAND'd German Bit
ters will cure iiine.tenths of the diseases induced by
exposures and privations incident to camp Wm In the
lists, published almost daily in the newspapers, io t a the
arrival of the sick, it will be noticed that a very large
proportion are suffering from debility. Every cue at
that kind can be readily cured by Iloofland's German
Bitters. Diseases resulting from disorders of the di.
gestive organs are speedly removed. We have no
hesitation In stating that, if these Bitters were freely
used among our soldiers, hundreds of lives might be
saved that otherwise will be lost.
The proprietors are daily receiving thankful biters
from sufferers in the army and hospitals, who have
been restored to health by the use of these flitter., seat
to them by their friends.
