The Pair Closed.—The great Sanitary Fair
closed on Saturday l ofter two weeks of turmoil
and exercise. The 14 dies must have been great
ly fatigued with their continued watchfulness
and labor. Especially in the Dining Ball where
the calls for refreshments were unceasing,
morning, noon nod evening. The fair ones who
were constantly in attendance must have wel
comed the day when the doors were to he closed.
The entire amount of money taken in, includ
ing the donations, cannot fall tar short of thi,
hundred thousand dollars, of which, the do.i
Dons were at least one half. A large amou.,t
must have been received from the auction sales
during the last of the week. We have not heal t
what the Managers intend to do with the lum
her of which the buildings is colnposed, but sup
pose that it will be sold wholesale as it stands.
The immense amount of rubbish will be cleared I
away during the week and Allegheny Market
Square will resume itr former appearatt! e.
limed by- Lightning.—We are pained
to chronicle one of the most startling occur
rences that hks taken place near our city fool'
many a:Year. A boy, or young man who lived
on °hie - greet; 'Allegheny city, named Forrest,
was struck by lightning yesterday about three
o'clocicrin Reserve t twnship, just adjoining that
city. He was attending a funeral of a man
named Ecker, and was just before the proces
sion. He was taking shelter during the sit ower
under a tree in the German Cemetery, in com
pany with a young lady, when the tree was
struck with lightning an I shattered considera
bly, andyonng Forrest was struck and instantly
killed. The young lady escaped somwhat in
jured. He was killed just about the time that
the body of Ecker was lowered into its final
resting place. Truly, in the midst of life:we are
in death. ,
Country Sites.—There Is a beautiful slope
of country along the Southwest side of the
Chestnut Ridge extending from Blairsville In
tersection to Derry station on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which would be an admirable section
of country for summer residences. This slope
extends for some eight or ten ru ties, just east
of and adjoining the railroad. The Chestnut
Ridge for miles above and northward, is a
boundless forest, grand, growing and pictur
esque. For miles there is no settlement and the
wild deer of the forest are said to roam over
this ridge and through these woods unmolested.
The land along this ridge is cheap and the tim
ber in m.any;places excelleht. The slope towards
the [railroad is gradual and the view from the
hillside extensive and grand. It would be a
rare place for country residences.
Watson the Swincller.—Nottling has treed
heard of "E. S. Wat ton," the swindler, whom
we noticed ri Saturday as having attempted to
raise money by a false statement made and cir
culated through the country, that he was rais
ing help for the benefit of sick and disabled
soldiers. It Is supposed that he has left the city.
Several packages that came in Adams' Express
for him, were luckily detained till he could bring
some one to certify to his character, which he
was unable to do. if he could be caught he
should be severely dealt with. There is enough
of swindling going on without resorting to such
bare faced robbery as this.
Dressed to Men's Clothes.—A young lady
was arrested the other iffy at the Fair Grounds
dressed up in men's clothes. She was taken to
the Mayor's office and appeared alarmed and
abashed at her situation, but refused to give her
name. She stated that her lover had enlisted ii?
the bth West Virginia cavalry and had appoint
ed to meet him here. She is good looking and
about eighteen or twenty years of age. Several
ladies and gentlemen furnished her with female
apparrel and she left for Philadelphia where
her parents live.
Last Eventug's Shower.—The thu:der
shower which drenched the streets of our city
last evening was refreshing to city and country.
Here it cleared the streets and pavements and
cooled the atmosphere which eves parchin4 hot.
To the growing crops in the country it was
worth thousands of dollars. The earth had be
come somewhat dry and a warm rain was much
needed. To make' fruitful fields there is noth
ing like warm suns and refreshing showers. We
had both yesterday.
The Tanner Boy, and how he became Lieu
tenant General is the title of,a volume laid on
our table by John P. Hunt. It purports to be
written by Major Peuniman and details. of
course, the leading events in the history of Gen.

FIGHT AT LONG BRIDGE
THE ENEMY REPULSE
Naw Volta, June lg.—A Herald cor
respondent with the Fifth Corps, gives
the following account of the fight near
Long Bridge: In crossing the Chicks
hominy at Long Bridge, General ('raw
ford's division had the advance. A fter
crossing, he pushed forward to the
heights on the other side, firmly estab
lishing himself, and there remained till
day-light, when the other divisions of
the Fifth Corps took position near by.
Here the Corps remained all (lay, hut
not without an independent and most
brilliant fight by Crawford's division
,
or the cavalry still in his advance, a por
tion was sent in the direction of Murner's
Ford, across the Chickahominy, and
some towards White Oak Swamp cross
ing.
At the latter crossing, the cavalry
came upon the Ist and 2d South Caro
lina regiments of Hampton's brigade,
and being inferior in numbers, they sent
back for infantry supports. Gen. Craw
ford sent Bates' brigade, with instruc
tions to aid the cavalry to get possession
of the road and entrench. Very shortly
after, Sykes' brigade went to the assist
ance of the Ist brigade, followed by
Carl's brigade.
In the same redoubts thrown up by
Gen. McClellan, the enemy had placed
three cannon, from which he kept up a
vigorous shelling' of our troops.
Three objects were to he gained by
holding the Long Bridge road, upon
which w..re all our trains, silencing the
guns in the redoubts and keeping pos.

DE
PARTMENT 11 P. St.—Major General Dia:
Dispatches from General Sheridan have
just been received. He reports a vic
tory over the enemy at Trevelain Sta
tion on the Virginia Central Railroad a
few miles south of Gordonsville, where
Gen. Lee a few days since reported a
rebel victory. The official report is as
follows I have the honor to report to
you the arrival of my command at this
point and also to report its operations
since leaving New Castle Ferry. I
crossed the Pamunky river on the 7th
inst., marching via. Ayletts and encamp
ed on Herring Creek. On the morning
of the Bth I resumed the march to Pale
Cat Station and encamped 3 miles north
of this station. On the 9th 1 marched
through Childsburg and Newmarket, en
camping on Erie Creek, near Young's
bridge. On the 10th I marched via.
Andrew's Tavern and Levinan's store,
crossing both branches of the North
Anna and• encamped at Buckchilds
about 3 miles north-east of Travelain
Station. My intention was to break the
railroad at this station, march through
Mechanicsville, and cut Gordonsville
and Charlottesville railroad near
Lindsey's house, and then to march on
Charlottsville, but on our arrival at
Bockchilds I found
,the enemy's cavalry
in my immediate front. (In the morn
ing of the 11th, General Tarburt with
his division and Col. Gregg or General
Gregg's division attacked the enemy.
After an obstinate contest they drove
him from successive lines of breastworks
through an almost impassable forest hack
on Trevelain Station. In the meantime
General Custer was ordered with his
br;gade,to procede by country roads so:aii
to reach the Station in the rear of the
enemy's Cavalry. Un his arrival at this
po.nt the enemy broke into a complete
route, leaving his dead and nearly all of
his wounded in our hands, also, 20 offi
cers, .10(1 men and :too horses. These
operations occupied the whole of the
day, :it night I encamped at Trevelain
Station, and on the morning of the 12th
inst. I commenced destroying the Rail
road from the front to Lorrain C H., this
was thoroughly done, the ties burned
and the rails rendered unservicable.
The destruction of the Railroad occu
pied until :1 o'clock of this day, when I
directed General Tarburt to advance
with his division, and Gen. Davis' bri
gade of Gen. Gregg's division in the di
rect;on of Gordonsville and attack the
enemy Nvlm hail concentrated and been
reinforced by infantry during the
night, and had also constructed ride pits
at a p Ant five miles from Gordo nsville
the advance was made, but as the ene
inv's position was found too strong to
assault, no general attack was made.
On the extreme right of our line a por
tion of the reserve brigade carried the
enemy's works twice and was twice
driven back. Night closed the con
test. I found on examination of the corn.
wand there was not a sufficiency of am
munition leftto continue the engagment.
The next day trains of cars also came
down to where we were engaged with
the enemy. The report of prisoners
and citizens were that Pickett's old di
vision was coining to prevent the taking
of Gordonsville. I therefore during the
night and next morning withdrew my
command over the North Anna river via
Carpentier's Ford, near Miner's bridge.
In addition the animals were for two
entire days in which we were engaged
without forage. The surrounding coun
try afforded nothing but grazing of a
very inferior quality, and generally at
such points as were inaccessable to us.
The cavalry engagement of the 12th was
by far the most brilliant one of tie
present campaign. The enemy's loss
was very heavy. They lost the follow
ing named officers in killed and wounded:
Col. McAllister, commanding a regi
ment, killed; Brigadier Gen. Rosier,
commanding a brigade, wounded ; and
Col. Custer, commanding a regiment,
wounded. • lay loss in killed and wound-
ed will be about 573. Of this number 490
are wounded. I brought off in my
ambulances 377, all that could be trans
ported. The remainder were with a
number of rebel wounded that fell into
my hands left behind. Surgeo.us and
attendants were detailed and retimined
in charge of them. I captured and have
now with me 370 rebel soldiers, in,clud
ing 20 commissioned officers. My loss
in captured will not exceed 160. T.hese
were principally from the sth Michigan
cavalry. This regiment gallantly charg
ed down the Gordonsville road, captur
ing 1500 horses and about 800 men, bi It
were finally surrounded and had to give
them up. When the enemy brolre:they
hurried between Gen. Custer's com
mand and Col: Gregg's brigade, captur
ing five caissons of Pennington's battery,
three of which were afterwards recaptur
ed, leaving in . their hands two esisons.
A more detailed report will be made
hereafter. • iSigned]

WAR DEPARTMENT, WASH - MGT*
June 15-10 A. m.—General Dix : The
following dispatch from General Graat i
dated yesterday 11 a. m., at City Point,
has been received by this Department :
The Ninth corps this morning carlic4
two more redoubts forming part of the
defences of Petersburg, capturing 40
prisoners and 4 elins. Our successes are
being followed up. Our forces dreisr•
out front within 50 yards of the enemy's
entrenchments at Cold Harbor, made a
flank movement of about 55 miles march
crossing the Chickahominy and Jaines
rivers, the latter 200 feet wide and 84
feet deep at the point of crossing, and
surprised the enemy's rear at Peters•
burg. This was done without the loss
of a wagon or a piece of artillery, and
only about 150 stragglers were picked
up by the enemy. Covering this move;
went Warren's corps and Wilson's cav•
ry had frequently skirmishing with the
enemy, each loosing from 50 to GO killed
and wounded, but inflicting an equal if
not a greater loss upon the enemy. The
Tenth corps, (Smith's) were the
Eighteenth (Smiths), were transferred
from the White House to Bermuda
Hundred by water, and moved out near
to Petersburg. The night of their ari
rival they surprised or lather captured
the very strong works north-east of
Petersburg before a sufficient force could!
be got in them by the enemy to join!
them. He was joined the night follow-.
ing this capture by the Fifth corps, which
in turn captured more of the enemy's;
redoubts further south, and this corps
was followed by the 14inth with result:
above slated. All the troops are now up,
except seven divisions covering the
wagon trains, and they will be up to
night. The enemy in their endeavors to:
reinforce Petersburg, abandoned their
entrenchments in front of Bermuda
Hundred. They no doubt expected
troops from north of the James river to
take their place before we discovered it.
Butler took advantage of this and moved

PITTSBURGH' OIL TRADE.
OPPIOS: OP THIt DAILY PoST
hioNDAT. June 20, 1864.
BUSINESS.--On Saturday was very dull, not
on account of prices, but simply because hold
ers of 011 had, in a great measure, withdrawn
their supplies and were not disposed to set the
figures. They preferred waiting until to-day
and take the chances of the market. The amount
of Oil on hand is very small.' The receipts on
Saturday by the Allegheny river only amounted
to 170 bbls of Crude.
CRUDE—The market' was very firm ; prices
have further advanced. We quote nominally at
38@39e packages returned, whilst sonic dealers
are holding out for 40c. The only sale that we
could learn of was 110 bbla at 38c on the wharf.
The same price was refused for 3,70 barrels, 40c
In Ix; demanded.
R eIFINEII---Was very firm. The market was
very firm, holders manifesting no disposition to
operate at the present figures. The rates we
publish are altogether nominal. The only tram- I
action reported was 200 hbla up river brand.
Free 70e, an advance. The rates for city brand
Bonded, were 62@03. Free 71@75c, with more
buyers than sellers. For fu lure delivery the
market was very miserable.
Pittsburgh Pig Iron Market.
PITTSBURGH, June 20, 1864.
The Iron market duting the week was not
very active ; buyers took hold sparingly ; hold
ers were firm and not disposed to lower their
figures. They prefer waiting and taking the
chances of the market. The supply on hand Is
not large, whilst the low stage of water in the
Ohio and Allegheny rivers will prevent receipts
through those channels. Hanging Rock hot
blast was held firmly, whilst of cold blast the
market was bare. The sales were limited as
follows:
