ated - - Charleston, West Virginia, June id,
which says:
The widow and three children of Gen, AlliertGal
din Jenkins, of the rebel army, arrived here yes
erday, passing our lines under a flag of truce. A
rebel chaplain was allowed to accompany them
here. Gen. Jenkins was wounded three times at
the fisrht, with Gen. Crooks at Cloidellleuntain, near
Dablin.- The wound canting his death was in the
,um, - near the shoulder, amputation was necessary
and was made. He was removed to a place near
Dublin, Whore his family joined him, and was doing
well until one night the artery, which had been in
cautiously taken up, began to flow, and ere those in
attendance discovered it he had bled so profusely
thit recuperation was impossible. He was 35 years
of ago, and owned a - splendid Property in Virginia,
en the Ohio, a few miles-below the Kanawha, yar
ned it'&300.000. lai view ofits confiscation a stand
ing offer is made to the government for it. by parties
-in Cincinnati - , of $20() ; 000. The children of the Gen
eral. on reaching- this place, were wretchedly clad,
-and:destitute of shoes and stockihgs. •
-When, Jenkins turd his horde entered this
town on the 15th of Jane, last year, it appeared
uif he was on a reconnoissance. They were
about here l'or some days, carrying on for them
selves, without regard to the comfort or anxi
eties - of our citizens. Jenkins -was of eourse
thei.controlling spirit, and seemed to be in good
repute with his men, Who; as we have intima
ted, were nothing more nor less than guerrillas,
having carried on that mode of warfare in Wes
tern Virginia from the beginning of the war.
Oc - tr people are all familiar with Jenkins' visit,
so that details here are unnecessary; but there
are some portiontof the history of that eventful
period not generally known, and which may be
of. interest now. Jenkins had been a member
4 - the same Congress with the Hon. Wilson
Reilly. It was also said that he had graduated in .
the, same class at Cannonsburg College with J.
McDowell Sharp, Esq. We believe he made
very kind inquiries about these two gentlemen.
One of his Staff, an aid we think, who called
Ibimself Murphy, claimed to be a native of '
ton county, and alleged that he was a graduate
n the printing business from the FRANKLIN
RE:RoSITQRY office. He admitted that he had.
an *tned name, said that the countenances
of many of our citizens were familiar to him, •
and indeedseveral persons with whom he con
versed, be called by 'name. At the breaking
out of 'the war he resided in ,Martinsbrirg,
was a practicing lawyer, and at the time Dis
trict isittiarney of Berkley county. He was an
- Tintelliient, prepossessing fellow, and evidently
a favorite with Jenkins. In his personal ap
pearance -Jenkins might be called handsome ;
It is certain at all events that he was smart,
obreWd and keen, realizing completely our idea
of ,tha true type oft ti guerrilla chief, proud of
his position, and an 'Unmitigated traitor. In hi 6,
expressed opinions of the war he was inexora
ble ; , nil compromise or submission was admis
sable. It was the independence of the Southern
• Confederacy, or death. One Afternoon,. while
partiiiin,g of is number of glasses of ale, and
evidently feeling its exhilarating effects, in a
certain well known eating and drinking estab.
liihment in this place, he took occasion to speak
very 'emphatically of his position on the great
question to some persons present. He placed
before him two glasses of ale, and, in a very
dramaticpanner declared that before he would
yield the_ caise of the Confedenacy,lie would
mix. poison in both glasses and , give oue to his ,
wife and children, while he would drink the
ether himself. He spoke of his immense wealth,
of the magnificeneei Dais property on the Ohio,
:of the haPpirress and comfort that bad previous
' ly reigned in his home, of his high social stand
ing, and of his,therished desires in Years gone
by, fur the' advancement and glory of his coun
try. "But my riches," said he, "are all gone;
not an object of value is left me but this faith
ful sword. My home is broken up and my lam
ily.driven from* it in the most ruthless manner;
my licipes and desires fora united country are
forever dispelled. Yankee tyranny did all
this; Now we only ask to be let alone as a
4113parate government, and a separate people,
land we intend to accomplish these purposes.
To our cause I MAT sworn my services, and.
for it, if required, I will give- my life." This
was about the style of his language. When he
got through he was so full of "beer" that he
could 'scarcely move. ; and . was - lifted upon his'
Gorse in charge of his Orderly, at the door. @n
his second appearance in this place, his force
came 'u the, advance guard of Lee's army, and
• -he was free to assure our people that the whole
army was. coming. Jenkins was afterkvards
tachedfrath Lee and sent to his old truthless of
guerrillawarfare on Micoldllimiliargrounds,and
- on those grounds, where his atrocities and era
elties.kulcarule Ills • name a terror, he lost his
life, dying within the ,lines of his•vietors. So
this is the last of Jenkins, and his name, in in
famy, is :added to the long black list of Treason's
minions, 'who in death bad gone before him.
EI'ip#OPIENT OF TOE 21ST CAVALFX.---
eIstrALTIKS.—We announced the departure
`or the.2lit Cavalry from their camp near this
place,in our issue of the 18th ult. The Regi
ment Marched to Washington and encamped at
Camp Stonema'n. A short time after their ar
rival au order was issued requiring them to turn
over their horses, equipments, &e., and to sup
10 them instead with arm's and accoutrements
plir tawdry service. On the 28th ult. the
fiegiment was ordered to the front,'Col. Boyd
In caaailiand, 'having instructions to, 'report to
Major General Meade. In 'the interview with
Geartal Meade, the Regiment was aasigned, to
Sweitzer's Brigade, Griffitt's: Division, Fifth
Army Corps. On,Thursday,,_the 3d inst., the
Regiment= was at liethsaida Church, in close
proxiinfty to the enemy, and engaged busily in
throwing up defenses. While at this work the
enemy kept np an abtioat uninterrupted fire
upon ilium , , and among .the casualties was
the almost instant death of Lieutenant 'Richard
H. Waters, by a shell.. On Friday the, brigade
moved on.the enemy's works, and the Regiment
-was in, the thickest of the fight. It was their
first encounter' with the enemy, but they ad
vanced fearlessly under their gallant Colonel,
atta obeyed with alacrity ever:) , order given
them. Their full purpose they were unable to
accomplish, but they punished the enemy to a
degree that must have convinced him of their
prowess and un flinching courage. The enemy's
sharp-shOoters seemed to have a peculiar spite
at Col. Boyd., He was in rather an exposed
pbsition:'and the bullets flew around ; and about
him like pelting hail: Finally a ball struck hint
on the side of the neck near the shoulda.. * He
continued for'some time to give his orderi, but
was at last removed from the field, almost com
pletely exhausted from loss of blood: With
night the contest closed. The following list of
those wounded in the Regiment during , the day
we copy froin . the New York Herald of Satur
day last. We learn that the full number killed
and wounded is about thirty.

We will publish a list of the killed 'as soon as
it is furnished us.
Col. Boyd has been brought to his home on
"Federal Hilt," near this place. His wbmtd•
is very severe, though not dangerous. Fier
tions to find the ball in his person have thuar
been ~.insuceessfuL He speaks in rapttirthis
language of the conduct of his brave command,
and earnestly trusts for - his speedy recovery,
that he may rejoin it.
—Since the above was in type w,e learnthat
a careful' examination of Col. Boyd's wound
,shows it to be of a very serious nature. The
ball iA lodged under tha spine, and cannot be
extracted. Grave fears are entertained that it
may prove mortal. t
THE LADIES' PAIR—SURPHISING SUCCESS.
—According to previous announcement, the La
dies' Fair for the benefit of the United States
Christian Commission, opened on Monday even
ing last. Both Franklin Hall and thS Court
House are occupied fur the purpose. The dis
play in the various departments is certainly the
grandest and most extensive ever witnessed in
this part of the State, and tells of the industry,
.zeal and patriotism which possessed our ladies
in carrying out their noble undertaking. We
hive not sufficient space this week to make
More than a general reference to the Fair, bat
shall give a detailed and as we hope a satisfac
tory description in onr next paper. Both Halls
are very tastefully decorated. Franklin Hall
is the main feature. , Here are offered for sale
useful and limey articles, in great variety,loys,
confectionery, trophies from the battle-fields,
&c., &c. The Court - Hall is used for the, cake
and ice cream depArtment. The Museum is
arranged in one of the large rooms of the third
floor of Franklin Hall. During the continuance
of the Fair meals will be served. citizens and
strangers at regular hours in the Court Hall,
and i at Hotel prices. Music .during 'each' even
ing Will be furnished by our Band. On Friday
and' Saturday evenings the Old Folks' Concert
will take place.
On the-opening night the Halls were erovvd
ed, and the scene was most brilliant. The sales
ladies looked their prettiest; and importuned
for customers in the- most irresistable style.
Eveqbcidy seemed " gnY and happy" and pur ;
chas edli o e rally. The night's receipts Wore about
$5OO. Yesterday the Halls were again crowded.
Thus far the undertaking has proved a most as
tonishing success, more than realizing the ex
pectations of its most sanguine 'friends. Let
us urge every one from every section of our
own and adjoining counties to give something
to this good cause. No matter how insignifi
cant your contribution may appear, it will add
to the aggregate result. Come then with your
money or whatever may be turned into money,'
and help swell the results of our labors for the
relief of our ptior manned and sick soldiers, to
a magnificent and truly liberal 'amount.
A NOBLE SOLDlER.—Another voice has been
stilled in death whase Utterances we_were ac
customed tii hear in the-kindest and: gentlest of
accents. Another soldier has surrendered his
life true to his God; his country and himself. If
ever a Man lived with nobility, ionl, with a
generous feeling for his fellow man and who be
lieved in the holiness and acted for the vindica
tion and success of his country's cause, it was
Lieut. Dick Waters, who fell instantly killed at
Bethsada Church on Thursday of last week.
This'noble soldier enlisted in the 12th Indiana,
a one year Regiment, and at the expiration of
his time came to this to)in. He was one of
the first to enlist . in Capt. Miles' Company of
the 126th Regiment nine mouths' service and
performed, his fluty faithfully. When the call
was made-for six months' troops be was quick
to reipond and before he was mustered out of
that service he assisted in raising a Company
and was appointed' 2d Lieuternt, Co. E, 21st
Regt. Pa. Cay., three years men;- - Lieut.Watera
was yet a young man. He was generous and
kind to a fault. His intelligence was of a high
order and his conversational powers always to be
appreciated. With these qualities he possessed
honesty, sobriety; and gentility, and, a cou rag e,
if not of a dashing order; was yet always sure.
He leaves a wife whom he had only married
last winter. May the ravages of war never
desecrate thy resting place good soldier, nor
the example of thy good deeds ever be lost for
imitation.
, THE PENNSiINVANIA RESERVES.—J. 11. Sy

Officers and a persetial record of each man,
during his term of service. These details will
be correct, as they are to be - compiled from
(klN n staitll,llll-114tiasitciiviiltine 15, - , 1864:'::'
official sources. Mr. Sypher is fully competent
for the task he has undertaken, and will make
his work ono of deep interest, not only - to gel
diers and, their relatives, but to th 6
Capt. Geo. N. Heagy, of this Borough, in the
accredited agent for the book in Frankliu,comity

in cloth, and $350. bound in leather. This his
tory of tut gallant ti body of ,men us the country
can produce, should be in every library in

State.
PuEsENTATIoN.- r -Gen. E. B. Tyler's -boys
of the nine months service always feel an inter..
est in anything with which his name is connec
ted. 3We made a statement recently, which
has since proved to be erroneons:that lie had pile
to the front. He commands a brigade of,,the
Bth Army Corps, and has his Headquarters at
the Relay House, near Baltimore. On Thursday
last thee fficers of the Brigade presented him
with a magnificent sword, and sash, belt and
spurs of the finest workmanship,as a testimoni ui
of their regard.
