'surprise , vre were made the . recipient of a
Present a shoat three gallon's - of good rye
whiskey; as a matter of course, intended scr
medical purposes. A handsome gift,' pres
ent prices considered.
TETE FAIR.—We have been requested
to announce that the ladies who are 'making
preparations for the coming Fair will meet
in the Town Hall on Friday of each - week-'
hereafter-at 1 and at 5 o'clock, P. M. •to
spend a couple of hours at needle work, etc.
It is expected that all the ladies in town thati
can will attend—if.ncit in the afterhoon in
the evening. The President and 'Managers
make th;s.request and we trust the response
may be general. • •
W 615 N DED. e -regret 4o • learn from
letters received from members of CO. '4l7th
Penna. CaValry," Oat l ionN SitocKEY, son
of Isaac Shockey, Esq. cf this vicinity, was
seriously wounded in an engagement a few
weeks since in front of Richmond, and that
JOHN FITZ, son of Mr. David Fits, also of
this vicinity, was wounded at the same time.
Report says he has since had one arm am
putated. Mr. S. is represented as being
wciutided in the side. The 17th cavalry is
attached to Sheridan's command; which has
done noble service since the opening of the .
carapaign :against' the Rebel capitol.
COL. 13011).—Col. lioro of the 21st
Reg. Penna. Cavalry, .who was wounded on
the 4th inst., in the neck, a notiee •
.of which
we published last week, has been removed to
his home near Chambersburg. We regret
to learn from the Rlpository that a careful
examination of his wound shows it to be of
a very serious nature The ball,is lodged - in .
the spina and cannot be extracted. Tears
are entertained thnt it may prove mortal.
DEAD.—The Nebel Gen. Jenkins Is dead,
certain, Recording, to a despatch which will
he - found in another column. The Gen. was
young in years but old in crime. In June
last he made his headquarters at Capt Kurtz's
itt this place, and was universally
regarded by our eititens as the greatest thief
and Most heartless villain of all the rebel of
ficers with whom they came in contact. But
he has met a traitor's doom, his black soul
having been called to its last account
PENNA. RESERVES.—It will be seen
from a notice published in another column
that Messrs. V. and H. R Gaff,
this place, have been appointed agents for
the 'sale of the History of the Pennsylvania
Reserves. The work mill give a complete
history of the Reserves through all rho en
gagements they were called to pass from the
time-of entering the service. It is to be
-printed on fine—paper i _bound in cloth and
handsomely illustrated. A record of the
gallant deeds as well 'as the .sufferings and
privations of this baud of veteran soldiers
during a throe years campaign must prove
If r interest to loyal. Penney!
• and no one who can afford the wrestle=
_of 63.00 should he without I copy.
C . APTURED.—Capt. DAVID IS. MCKID-
J3ti;, of the 14th 'United States, Regular In
fantry, was captured by the enemy in one of

In early life_he was a journeyman tailor.—
Ire came to manhood without even the first
rudiments of school education. Per his first
induction into the walks of scholarship he
was indebted to hji wife, a most estimable
lady. Ho was an apt pupil, and how rapid
ly and effeetively he Advanced; his vigorous
writing and ready, and", powerful' oratory , bear

long and singularlysuccesiful. We remem
ber him in the.Natieoal house of Represen

In our movetnents'so far we have captor•

The amount'of railroad property which we
have destroyed and captured is large. We
have taken a large number of prisoners.—
Some of them are mere boys, and one or two
I saw were so young that they could hardly
use a musket.
Considering the extensive character of

we have' attained, our loss is not large in ei

DEFEAT OF GEN. STURGIS. -
.141EstPlus, June 13.7.—The expedition
un
der Gen. Sturgis, which left Memphis Juno
Ist is returning. We learn from an officer
that they met a large force, of rebels at Gun
town, said to be 10,000, infantry and caval
ry, under command of Forrest, Lee. and Rqd n ,
dy. This force attacked them suddenly, and
a west desperate fight ensued, resulting,• in
the defeat of Gen, Sturgis, with the loss of
his wagon and ammunition train. This last
was the Inest•severe loss, as Sturgis ran apt
of ammunition, and was obliged to destroy
and abandon his'artillery. •Many of, his in
antry were captured—the exact number is
not known.
Gen. Sturgis' force consisted.of 3,000 cav
alry, and 5,000 infantry.. This large rebel
force is supposed to have I
Gen Sherman's rear, to interfere with his
comniunieatious.

- SERVED TIIEM RlGRT.—During the pro
!reai of the hloody_fight iu Virginia, that
have coveretiTititarili - s with glory and vindi
eated.the full power of the Oroverrtmen_t_to
maintaiu its just authority, a large number
of officers found their' we to the rear and
eventually • reached Vas ungton in sa
with the plea that they 'had either suffered
from snn,stroke,'or had been siliEtly'serateh•
ed—in the back. The sneaking cowardice
of these officers being apparent, the G-Ovefn
ment at, once ordered them all to be arrested
on charges of being absent from
. their com
mancis without orders. After a fair trial,
they were found gUilty, reduced to the ranks,
and at once sent to . the -- front — to fight — with
muskets in their hap* by the side of better
men.
