Since our last issue, a scries of the most terrible conflicts this continent, or, perhaps, any other sectiou of the vorld, ever saw have been fought. For seven long summer days, the flower of two grand and power ful armies contended together in deadly grapple before the avenues leading direct ly to the Rebel stronghold, Richmond ; for seven days tire contest waxed fierce and unequal ; but the going down of the sun of the last day of blood illuminated the banners of our successful if not victori ous soldiery. Right was? pitted against Might, and thank God ! with the in fallible result. The Army of the Potomac was saved, and, in its temporary reverses not less than in its triumphs, it covered itself with glory. That the carnage was dreadful on both sides caunot be gainsayed. The carnival of blood ran high, and thousands went forth to their long account. It is admit ted on all hands, however, that the mor tality in the ranks of the Rebel? far ex ceeded ours, their loss having been set dowa at as high a figure as scvcnly-Jivc thousand, whereas ours is reported to be about thirty thousand. The main features of this "Week of Bat tles are no doubt familiar to our readers. They all know ichy we fought, how we fought, and against how many. Suffice it to say, then, that the result is consider ed in military circles to be a brilliant and entire success for our arms. Without attempting to detract from the blood-bought laurels of other heroes, we would say a word as to the Pennsylva nia Reserves. V'hen their history comes to be written, will it not be said of this splendid corps that their courage and for titude 'went far to throw the trembling fortunes of the day in the right direction that they ically saved the Army of the Potomac from destruction ? They were in the very front, and for five consecutive days fought with a braver' and tenacity never surpassed by an' army in the world. The evidi.uce of the war correspondent of the New York Tribune on this point is Iritfly -as follows : "At intervals as some point in the line seemed weak, they went sternly into the wooded valley and shalow of death. Not a regiment Lthaved unseemly." Even when reduced to half th oir original numbers, they showed no sigus of flinching. Every Pennsylvanian has just reason to be proud of these chivalrous sons of the OIJ Keystone. They have fulfilled the hopes and expectations of their lead ers and friends, and compelled the admi ration of all. Their measure of fame is full! The loss of the Reserves was terrible. Gen. M'Call was wounded and taken pris oner; Gen. Reynolds was taken prisoner; Gen. Meade was wounded ; and it is esti mated that from three to four thousand officers and men are cither killed, v.oun- cicu or nnssiucr. Sorrow and glocm have been cast over this community by the apparently well authenticated report of disaster,, to Company A, 11th Reserves, Col. Galla gher. This company was organized in Ebcnsburg and Vicinity, and contains within its ranks the hope and pride of the Mountain County. The first rumor iu his connection was to the effect that the company had been cut completely to pie ces, commissioned and non-commissioned officers, privates and all, with the excep tion of ttcdvc or fourteen I Later reports, however, would seem to favor the proba bility that the company, in common with the entire 11th regiment, hod been cap tured en masse by the Rebels during the fight of Friday, 27th June. A war cor respondent of the Philadelphia Press, de scribing the incidents falling under his observation that day, writes as follows : 'The lastwc saw of the 1 1th Reserves, Col Oalhigber, they were fighting, completely surrounded by rcbl troops. Of this rei iwent, only one company escaped." The company here referred to i3 Co. R. from Indiana county, which, owing to their being absent on special duty, was not in the fi-ht. TilURSDAY From another source we have the fol lowing intelligence : "Nine companies of the 11th Pennsylvania Reserves were surrounded and taken priso ners in the fight near Gaines' Hill." Add to thi3 the fact that in a partial list of prisoners captured by the Rebels and now held at Richmond, as published ia the Richmond papers, appear the the names of Col. Gallagher, Lieut. Col Jackson, Maj. Johns, AJjt. Robert A. M'Coy, (of Ebensburg,) together with eighteen other commissioned officers all of the 11th regiment and the presump tion becomes violent that the fortunes of war have thrown a large proportion of our brave boys upon the tender mercies of the enemy. Various conflicting rumors are going the rounds as to the probable fate of the company. As no letters have been re ceived here from the soldiers since the battle, these must necessarily be mere speculation, to which but slight impor tance should be attached. Although the suspense is terrible, let us exercise pa tience, and hope for the best. Pic Nic at Carrolltown. A very pleasant pic nic came off at Carrolltown this county, on the "Fourth," at which the editor of this paper was so fortunate as to be present. The exercises were had in the most umbrageous of groves, jus out of town, where a large and select as semllage were congregated at the appoin ted hour. The Declaration of Indepen dence was read by Henry Scanlan, Esq. the Constitution by the Rev. Giles Chris topher ; and speeches, in the English and German languages, delivered by Messrs Ren Wirtner, Henry Scanlan, Rev. Chris topher, Henry Hopple and A. A. Barker, Everybody enjoyed himself to the ful exteut of his abilities, and the occasion went off "merry as a marriage bell." Car rolltown and vicinity is patriotic to the core. At Ebensburg. The pic nic at Eb ensburg the same day was also a large affair. The attendance was respectable, and the exercises piquant and varied. Altogether, it was eminently creditable to those through whose exertions it was got ten up. Through per Railroad. It affords us intense pleasure to be able to state that the Post Otfice Department has perfected an arrangement with the Ebensburg & Cresson Railroad Company by which the mails to and from this place are now trans ported over the above road. This is a de cided improvement, inasmuch as our East ern mail arrives here two hours and a half and our' Western mail two hours ear lier than by the old dispensation of hacks to "Wihnore. Postmaster Thompson has issued the following schedule for the government of the Ebensburg Post Office : Mails Eastward close every day (Sundays excepted ) fit 4 r. 21. Mails Westward close at 8 P. M. Letters thrown in the Ofiice. af'.er these hours will lie over till the next mail. The contract for carrying the mails from and between the" Post Office and the Railroad was awarded on Monday to Mr. John W. Roberts, at 6G0 per annum. No Paper. Owing to divers and sun dry good and sufficient reason?, all of which it were useless to here refer to in" detail, no paper was issued from this of fice last week. Our patrons, we know, thty being all good fellow-sinncrs,- will readily pardon the shortcoming, and, when wc say that ice that is to say, the establishment in geueral and each and every one belonging to it in particular feel all the better and balmier and bus incss-like-er for a week's holiday, we are also sure they would commend us to a like rejuvenator once every three months at least. Thank you, patrons kind may you live a thousand years, and grow youn ger as you grow older ! Robbed in IIarrisburo. A man na med Richard Ash era ft, of Susquehanna township, this county, was so unfortunate as to allow himself to be robbed in Har risburg a couple of weeks since of the neat little fura of 100.- Subsequently he made information against a negro woman, charging her with the theft when she was arrested, and confessed the crime, im plicating a worthless negro named Jake Jones in the transaction. This latter per sonage was also arrested in Pittsbur" shortly after, and both parties are now rusticating in the Ilarri&burg jail. "We did not hear whether any of the stolen money had been recovered. -Lieut. Wm. II. Kern, of Co. il, 12th Penna. Reserves, was severely woun ded in the left leg in the recent fight at Mechanicsville, before Richmond. 'lie lives in thia county, and has arrived home. PrTTRrtirnn "PnfiT.v rnrirnr Wa copy the following notice of this excellent institution from the Pittsburg Gazette of the 3d inst : The Seventh Annual Catalogue of the Pittsburgh Female College has just been laid upon our table by the President, Rev. I. C. Pershing. We confess that we have examined its contents with a degree of satisfaction amounting almost to pride, as we have marked the fact that we have in our midst one of the most vigorous, well managed and successful institutions in the land. We question much whether one in ten, even of our own citizens, has any real conception of the status tho college has reached, or the grand and glorious work it is to day accomplishing. The recent commencement, at which nineteen young ladies received their degrees, gave evi dence not only of woman's capabilities, but also of the superior facilities afforded by the college for their development. The entire commencement whs a brilliant success and reflected the highest honor on all concerned. As an evidence of the prosperity of the college we need but state the fact that the attendance the past year reached the large number of tiro hundred and forty-ehjld, gathered from nine States. In order to accommodate the constantly increasing number of pupils, an addition has been made to the Faculty, which now numbers fifteen. Most of the old teachers remain. Among the new ones are Miss Martha C. Dole, a lady of large experience, and for some time a teacher in the celebrated school at Mount Holyoke, Mass., and Miss lanme A.-rish, who has earned such an enviable reputation in our community. lhe utmost care is taken in the selection of teachers, and the present Faculty wil compare favorably with any in the country. We are pleased to learn from President Pershing that an effort is now makine to put up an addition to the building. The design is to add 40 feet to the Chapel, divide the second story into a Library and Reading-room, and also a Hall for the Rrowning association, and devote the en tire third story to the purpose of an Art Gallery and Cabinet, lhe design is a noble one, and we trust it will be carried out. The next term will commence on Tues day, September 2d, next. We need hardly urge upon our readers to pat ronize the College. If fine buildings, thorough eauipment, a very lare and able Faculty, and "earnest devotion to the work of christian education, can cive claims to patronage, then has the college claims which are second to none. We advise our readers to send for a catalogue. STRAY MARE !
