r Fairfax, the Sixth Virginia cavalry, and dashed at them with the sabre. The Major made two charges, and drove the rebels for three miles into a wood, and there encountered a superior force, that checked him with the fire of carbines. The fight, from the beginning to the end, was fierce. Major Remington, after having had his horse shot twice, cut his way out and made his escape with eighteen men. Eighty were reported missing. Among them were Captain Dagwell, Captain Campbell, and Lieutenant Hazleton. The companies were B and C. Carlisle, Pa., was abandoned by the Union forces, and soon after occupied by the rebels advancing on Gettysburgh.--A large number of rebel cavalry under command of Fitz-Hugh Lee, made a dash into Annandale, Va., capturing several sutlers who were in the vicinity, and burning a number of hospital stores and sutlers' wagons.

pened fire with grape upon them. The result was three men were killed and seven wounded. The rebels immediately charged, led by Mosby himself. Lientenant Barker, twice wounded in the leg, continued with his handful of men to contest every inch of the ground, and himself crossed sabres with Mosby. But numbers told, and several of the Fifth New-York were made prisoners. This gallant fight of Lieutenant Barker afforded Colonel Preston an opportunity to come up with the First Vermont. Lieutenant Hazleton was in advance, with about seventy-five men, and charged bravely up the lane, the few boys of the Fifth New-York, who were left, joining the Vermonters. Again and again the gun dealt destruction through the ranks, but nothing could check their impetuosity, and the brave fellows rode over the gun, sabring the gunners, and captured the piece. Sergeant Carey, of the First Vermont, was shot dead by the side of the gun; his brother, a corporal in the same regiment, although his arm was s

Reid, of Missouri, who resigned his seat in the last Congress to take up arms against the Government, and has since been doing a very brisk business in the guerrilla line, was arrested last week, and given in charge of Colonel Dan Huston, who commands the military post at Lexington.

Camp, Gatzmer, Coon, Hanna, Zouker, and Hazleton, with an aggregate of $1,800,000. Army circles here give these rumors no credence.

to our assistance, and in three hours after the attack on the Housatonic all hands that were saved were safely transferred to that ship, where they received every attention. Subsequently a portion of the survivors were transferred to the Wabash. The Gousatonic is a total loss. All hands lost all they possessed — money, clothes, &c. In fact many of them, including some of the officers, went on board of the Canandaigua in a naked state. A sad accident of the disaster in the loss of Ensign Hazleton, of Concord, New Hampshire; Mr. Mezzey, Captain's Clerk; John Williams, Quartermaster, and John Welsh, coal-heaver, of Boston, were drowned. The latter had got safely on the deck, but ventured back to save $900, which he had in his bag on the berth deck. Poer fellow, he never returned. Theo Parker, (colored,) who was on the lookout directly over where the ship was struck, was blown late the air and instantly killed. Capt. Pickerang was slightly injured by the explosion. John Goff,

the staff, having the fastest horse, at one time ordered Early's adjutant-general to surrender, under the supposition that he was the General himself; Early was in three yards of the Adjutant at the time. Burton being alone, the demand to surrender was responded to by a shot which wounded his horse, causing him to fall, fastening the Captain by one leg to the ground. This opportune moment was improved by Early, and he again plunged into mire and the pines, this time closely pursued by Captain Hazleton, of the First Vermont. Early was finally forced to ford the South Anna, two miles below the bridge, at a point where, under different circumstances, no man would have ventured to cross. Here, too, he was so closely followed that, to distract his pursuers, he divided his companions into three parties, and made his escape on foot, accompanied only by an orderly.--The pursuit was kept up, however, for ten miles further, but night coming on the hero of the Valley, by the merest accident,
