ey have been sentenced to be shot, the order to be executed to-morrow. This report is from one of the Pennsylvania cavalry, who saw the villains and recognized them. Twenty wounded were in the covered cars on board the train which the guerrillas shot at. One of the poor fellows, named Remystamsley, a Frenchman, of the 55th New York volunteers, received two bullets in his body and leg. His leg was amputated. About noon to-day our pickets were fired upon by the enemy near Fair Oaks. Captain Shafer, or Shaler, of the Eighty-first Pennsylvania regiment, was instantly killed by a shot through the head.--Major Devereaux, field-officer of the day, had also charge of a picket. He was shot through the shoulder. In its "Situation" article, the Herald says: The guerrilla parties were still hovering about the rear of the Union army before Richmond.

He was once a Lieutenant in Captain Shafer's company, Maryland volunteers. About ten days since defendant was carried before C. S Commissioner Watson, and by him discharged, because the papers then produced did not make out a case on which he could be hold for trial.
