This town is twelve miles from Williamsport, and about the same distance from Bunker Hill, a village noted in that section for its extensive flour mills. Bunker Hill is ten miles north of Winchester, and five miles west of Smithfield. The country between Bunker Hill and Smithfield is broken, and hilly, and for several miles the main road runs through heavy pine and oak forests. Nearly midway between these two points the road crosses Opequon Creek, a stream which in high stages of water, is scarcely fordable. Bunker Hill is on Mill Creek, about two miles from its junction with the Opequon. There is also a country road running from Lee-town between Shepherdstown and Smithfield to Bunker Hill, which crosses the Opequon about three miles below the latter point. This road intersects the turnpike from Martinsburg to Winchester, about a mile North of Bunker Hill. It is more than probable that the column of the enemy advancing fr

are of an important character, and such as to create the belief that a great battle is impending, if it has not already occurred. All reports concur in the statement that the enemy, in heavy force, have crossed the Potomac at Harper's Ferry and Shepherdstown, and that our own forces, under General Lee have taken up a strong position, in which to await the approach of the enemy. The enemy are represented to be approaching by the turnpike road leading from Harper's Ferry to Smithfield, in Jefferson county, and from Shepherdstown by way of the Smithfield and Shepherdstown turnpike. Both of these are fine roads, and leading through the heart of Jefferson county. From Shepherdstown to Smithfield the distance is twelve miles, and from Harper's Ferry to the same point is about fifteen miles.

Pollavicino says: Having gone myself to the wounded Garibaldi, he declared to me that be felt no resentment to wards any one. On the contrary, he always avoided touching upon any subject of a political nature, and did not manifest towards the Government either hatred or opposition. He adhered tac tly to the conditions I proposed, and demanded permission to embark in an English ship and leave the country. I replied that I would ask, and wait for instructions on the subject. Having asked me what would be done with the prisoners, I replied that I was not the depository of the instructions of the Government but that, in my own opinion, the Government, after causing the prisoners to be sent to Messine, would perhaps get them at liberty within twenty-four hours, in order not to be char
