Gallantry of the Maine Seventh.
Chambeksbcro, Pa., Sept. 22,1802.
Another great battle lias been fought in the
vicinity of Sharpsburg, Md., and the retiels
have been driven. It is certainly refreshing
after such a long catalogue of disasters to wit
ness the defeat of the redoutable Stonewall
Jackson. The contest was determined and the
result decisive. Some of the most brilliant
charges were made that have occurred during
the war. Among them was the gallant, yet
fatal charge of the “Seventh Maine.” This
Regiment was ordered to drive tile enemy from
a strong position about 900 yards in front of
the line of battle. Every private in the ranks,
knew that a Brigade of the enemy was massed
there with a battery of artillery, and that an
awful blunder had been made, but obedience
Is the first duty of a soldier. The order was
given to the regipient to advance. On they
Went across the field under a shower of bul
lets, halting twice to return the fire of the en
emy. After halting the second time to deliver
their fire, the Regiment rushed forward with
such a cheer as only the “Seventh” can give,
driving the enemy before them. The rebels
now took reftige behind a stone wall and open
ed a galling fire of musketry. At this point,
the Regiment had arrived within range of one
of our batteries, which had been playing upon
the enemy, and not aware of the advance our
forces continued firing. The rebels opened
their battery with grape and canister. The
regiment seemed now devoted to destruc
tion, yet the men delivered their fire with
steadiness and terrible effect as they moved by
the left flank to gain the cover of an orchard.
Thence through a corn field by a circuitous
route, they returned to their old position in
line of battle. Not a man had struggled. All
that the bullets had spared were there; but
how thinned the ranks! Only sixty-five men
now constitute the gallant “Seventh Maine.”
Many a brave soldier has fallen either killed or
wounded. Acting Adjutant, W. L. Haskell,
mounted on a white house, was a conspicuous
mar* ior tne enemy s millets, -uia tvmtey
received three shots while his rider was shot
through both knees. Lieutenant Brown and
Goodwin fell, bravely cheeriug on the men of
their respective commands. They have con
summated a noble life by the most gallant death
that man can die. Captains Cochrane and
Cook, and Lts. Shorey and Emery, wounded
in the early part of the action. Capt. Jones
received a slight wound. To this might be
added a long list of the rank and file that had
suffered more or less, from the missels of des
truction. Suffice it to say that all behaved
with the most becoming gallantry, and nobly
sustained the reputation of their native State.
But we cannot forbear to mention the names
of Major Hyde, commander of the Regiment,
and Lt- Haskell acting Adjutant, who were
everywhere present, controlling, directing and
stimulating the men. Index.
The Old “Kennebec District.”
The District which Hon. James G. Bi.aink
is elected to represent in the XXXVIIIth
Congress, is one of such perisistent steadiness
in political principle, that we deem it worth
while to recall some facts in its history.
In the present apportionment it ranks as the
Third District in the State—but it is better
known as the “Kennebec District”—as this
county is the largest of those composing it,
and the one from which it derives its steady
Republican majority.
It is a fact of some interest and significance,
that ever since Maine was admitted to the
Union, the District which included Kennebec
county has been carried by large majorities
•gainst the Democratic organization. As A'«
tionnl lit'jiublirun, as Whig, and now as lie
publican, the District lias tieeu uniform and
overwhelming iu its majorities.
From 1810 to 1824, Joshua Cusiiman of
Tassalboro’, represented the District. He dis
tinguished himself by the zeal and ability
with which he resisted the Missouri Compro
mise.
Pelko Spbaoue, at present IT. S. District
Jndge of Massachusetts, succeeded Mr. Cush
man in 1824. nml remained in the House till
1829, when lie was transferred to the U. S.
Senate as the successor of Mr. Chandler.
Georoe Evans succeeded Mr. Sprague in
1829 after a very exciting contest against Rtiel
Williams. Mr. Evans was continuously re
elected from the District until 1841, when he
in turn was transferred to the Senate as the
successor of J udge Ruggles.
Since Mr. Evans’ term of service, the Dis
trict has beeu represented successively hy the
following gentlemen, viz: David Bronson;
Lither Severance; Hiram Belcher;
John Otis; Robert Goodenow; Samvel
P. Benson ; Freeman H. Morse and Anson
P. Morrill. Each one. of these gentlemen was
elected by a large majority over the Democrat
ic candidate.
Mr. Blaine is elected by some three thou
sand majority over Mr. Gould — with some
scattering majority for Mr. Smith, of Wiscas
set. Had there been any special effort made
by the Republicans, the majority for Mr. B.
could have been well nigh doubled. It is
large enough, however, for practical purposes,
aud large enough to maintain the ancient and
goodly character of the old ‘•Kennebec Dis
trict. ’—[Ken. Journal.

Notice to Wood and Lumber Tier
chants.
FROM NoTcmbor 1st. 1IW2, to M»r lit, 1W3. the
rate* of freight on all descriptions of lumber
and timber will be advanced 25 per cent.
No fire wood will be conveyed bid ween October lat,
1862. and May 1st, 1803.
An advance in the rates of fire wood will take place
next summer, but in consequence of changes in the
arrangement for conducting the wood business, which
are about to be made, the Company will not be able
to take fire wood from certain places on the line, so
that should any parties make contracts for lire wood
to be carried on the railwav during the next season,
they must understand that they will do so at their own
risk, aud that the Company will not feel themselves
bound to carry it.
Due notice will be given of the rate* of freight, and
from what stations fire wood can be carried next
summer.
