Cannonadihg was ilainry- beard here on
Sabbath. • We learn, this (Monday) morning,
that a severe et;gagenient took Place yesterday,
between the United States troops and a Rebel
force supposed, to ,be ccmmanded by Imboden,
in the vicinity of Charlestown, Va. In the
early part of the day, a considerable number
of Maryland. troop,s, (Union)were captured, but
after some hours of hard fighting the prisoners
were recaptured,,ed the entire Rebel force
w l as repulsed with considerable loss in killed,
wounded and prisoners. This battle which
has resulted in checking Imboden, will give
us a breathing spell, and we -need, h,ardly l fear
a rebel raidat present. A hondred false re
ports are put intoVretation, every day. Let
Asotople restrest ; ns sured,that,the opal men t of
the Susquehanna is now better prepared to
resist the rebels-than t at,.aoy- period since its
organization..:lßeinfOreements have been gent

of cavalry, having made a wide detour, attack

New-York was sent to the support of General
Gregg. and Reed's battery M, Second United

but, owing to the short range of the guns,
which were brass Napoleons, no serious dam

The Fourth and Thirteenth were now
pressed severely in front, and our centre
broken, and at the same time they were at

men cut their way through, and escaped across
