FIGHT IN cIiE4RIIELD couNry.,
Arrest of Ni.Reteen Deserters
TWO •MEN KILLED
s PaaaSatiso, Dec. 15, 1864.
A military force, consisting of a part of the
16th regiment Veteran Reserve Ceirps, under
Major F. A. FE. Gabel, came to this placeltist
week, to look after the deserters in Clearfield
county. Resistance to the draft having been
inculcated by the Democratic leaders in Clear
field connty, it has become a rendezvous for
dee,erters• from other parts of the State..: Knox
townehip was especially notorious, a large
number having congregated there under the
leaderstip of a noted outlaw named. Tom
Adams.
OrvTitesday , evening MajorGabel revived
intelligence that there was to be a "deserters'
ball" at A.danis' house in Knox township.
Capt. J. M. Southworth, with a detachment
of ninety men, was sent 'to look abet: the. 1
"guests.' About half the force were in sleighs,
the remainder,were'mounted. They arrived
at the house about, midnight. The Captain
posted-his• cavalry around the, house; and,then
advwed withliis - infantry to the door.i Just
as he reaehed the steps he heard some one

Read was a citizen of Claremont,
New HarriPabire. He had but recently been
transferred to the Veteran Reserve Corps,
baying served honorably for over two years in
the Army of the Potomac. In the brief pe
riod he had served in the 16th regiment, he
had won many friends, and his loss is regretted
alike.by . officers and men.
Captain Southworth and his men deserve
great credit for the manner in which the affair
was managed. It. has already struck terror
into the deserters thronging the log camps
threughout• Clearfield county, and has made
men, disloyal sympathizers, quake with fear.
Maj- Gabel is determined to arrest every &-
sorter, and aim" , disloyal man who has
assisted in fomenting this resistance to the
Government. He will make thorough work
of it. - ***

laenteuent Colonel Earle, commanding a
special party, was severely wounded and fell
into the hands of the enemy at Fayette, Mis

with Gen. Sherman's operations, could be
made from Vicksburg - and Baton Rouge, for
the purpose of cutting Rood's communica
tions with Mobile.
The expedition sent from Vicksburg, and
consisting of about 2,000 cavalry and eight
pieces of artillery, commanded by Col. E. D.
°strand, 3d colored cavalry, returned on the
4th inst., having met with a complete success
after an admirably executed flank movement
on Jackson. . •
On the 24th the expedition started for the
Big Black. Bridge, on the Mississippi Central
Railroad, which was reached on the. 27th,
and after a stubborn resistance, captured and
destroyed, thus cutting Rood's army off from
the large • quantity. of supplies and stores ac
cumulated atJackson, Miss., and makes that
railroad, which was his main reliance, unavail
able to him for months to come. Besides this
important bridge and trestle work, the follow
ing property was completely destroyed, viz;
30 miles of railroad track, including culverts,
wagon bridge over Big Black, Vaughn's, Picket
and Goodman Stations, railroad depots and
buildings, 2,600 bales of cotton, .2 locomotives,
4 stage coaches, 20 barrels of salt, and $16,200
worth of stores at Vaughn's Station.
The expedition was considerably harassed
on its return by large bodies of the enemy's
troops, but suffered no material losses, and
brought back more recruits than the entire
loss in effective men.
'Maj. J. B. Cook, commanding 3d colored
cavalry, distinguished himself and his regi
ment greatly, by the gallantry with. *hick the
force guarding the Big Black Bridge were
driven off from behind their strong stockades
on the opposite side of the river.
Our men had to charge dismounted with
nothing but railroad ties for a path, and
in the face of a sharp fire.
I have announced Major Cook, in goneral
orders, as promoted to the vacant Lieutenant
golonelcy of the regiment, subject to the
approval of the President.

Crrr Poner, Deo. IG.—The Richmond Dis
rtch of to-day, after fully confirming the pre
vious reports of the capture of Bristol, states
that the enemy then advanced up the railroad
towards Abingdon, which we presume fell i n
to their hands, though we have no information
of the fact.
The next we hear of them, they had at l)
o'clock yesterday morning, pounced down on
Shade's Spring, a depot on the railroad, 13
miles this side of Abingdon, taking every one
of them by surprise and capturing all of the
railroad employees except one, who managed
to escape to tell the tale.
At last accounts, the enemy were pushing
up the railroad in the direction of Marion,
which is 26 miles on this side of Abingdon.
This is a raid in Breckinridge's rear.
The raiders leaving their forces somewhere
in the neighborhood of Knoxville, came up
the north side of the Holston river and cros
sed over to Bristol. It is probable that the
raiders separated-z—one patty proceeding , to
Bristol and the other to Abingdon.
If unchecked, it is likely they will come - up
the railroad even as far as Salem, and thence
escape to Lananbee by the route followed by
Hunter last Summer.
It is unknown who is in command of this
expedition, but it looks very much like some
of Stonemau's galloping work
None of the dispatches received say - anything
about Saltville. If it is unprotect-d it has
doubtless been visited by the enemy. If,
however, there were any troops there, the
Yankees were apt to fight sky of it %tndreon
fine their operations to the railroad.
Gen Hood's official report of the battle of
Franklin haeat last been received. It will
be seen that our reported extraordinary loss
of general, officers is but too true. The fol
lowing is Gen. Hood's dispatch:

o'clock r. at., Nov, 30., we attacked the enemy
at Franklin, and drove them from their centre
line of temporary works into the inner lines,
which they evacuated during the night, leav
ing their dead end wounded in our possession,
and retired to Nashville closely followed by
our cavalry.
We captured several stand of colors /aid
about one thousand prisoners. Onr : Aroops

A subsequent telegram from Gen. Hood
says that our loss of officers was excessively
large in proportion to the loss of men.
From Kansas, Fort Gibson, Six..
The Lawrence Tribune says the notorious
brigand Quantrell was removed in an ambu
lance with Price's retreating column, sick be
yond hope of recovery.
'the Democrat's Fort Scott, Kansas special
dispatch of the 2d. says that yesterday.a cou
rier arrived from Fort Gibson with dispatches
causing apprehensions for the safety of a large
government train which lett the camp on Dry
Wood, ten miles south-of that place on the 2d
of November.
The train consists of 120 Government
wagons, five yoke of oxen to each one, 30 sut
lers' wagons, with six mules to each, all
heavily loaded, for Fort Gibson, distant 180
miles. It was guarded by a few dismounted
Indian cavalry and a section of artillery. The
train is now said to be corraled onthe Neosho
river, about 10 . 0 miles south of this place,
and the men are throwing up earthworks for
defence, being closely invested by 'the rebel
General taints, with 7,000 men and 5 guns.
Col. Moonlight is reported to be moving to
the assistance of the train.
