One Regiment that got out of the Big fight.

--A Washington letter dated the 6th inst., says:

‘ The 58th regiment Pennsylvania Reserves reached town about midnight last night from the front, having been mustered out of the service in pursuance of an arrangement by which the Government allows the time they were in State service to go to their credit on the three years term; averaging the time the different companies of regiments were mustered into service and mustering each regiment out from the date of the average. The 58th regiment is one of the earliest regiments raised of the Reserves, which comprises fifteen companies.
