k is e rtss SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1863 THE SITUATION. At length, from the mass of rumors and reports that come us from Virginia, we begin Ito get •e clear idea of 'the plans of General LEE. Philosophers tell us that ob jects seenthrough a mist appear exaggerated beyond their actual propOrtions. So it has been with the movements of the enemy; as long as they were enveloPed in the mists of uncertainty many of us attached to them undue importance; and felt seriously alarmed for the safety of our State. It was a salu tary alarm,. for it taught us, at the same time, our strength and our weakness ' and doubtless had the effect of saving us from more serious rebel incursions;; but it has passed away. The military , authorities have remitted neither their • labors nor their vigi lance ; the fortifications are still being thrown . 4), and the troops are still - being organized and concentrated at the critical point But these :things-seem to be done in the belief that they will constitute . the most important and exciting features of our home campaign. Withthe exception, perhaps, of one or.two straggling detachments of cavalry, the re bels seem to have retired from our border; and. partly from this circumstance, partly from a feeling of confidence in the capacity of our generals, and soldiers at Hanish - erg, we feel that cursituation is much less criti cal than it was supposed to be a day or two ago; and many entertain the notion that we no longer stand in any danger whatever. Thus reassured of their security, our people are beginning -to calmly contemplate the oPerations in Virginia. The general con elusion arrived at, that General, LEE'S en tire army is marshalling for an advance - across the Potomac, is in accordance with the opinion we have already expressed in these ,columns, and is, besides, a necessary inference from the language employed by: the Richmond' papers for 'at least a month past. They have clamored for au invasion of the North, and that invaSion will soon be attempted. The battle of •Chandellorville., although claimed by the rebels as a victory, and ad mitted by many of our Own journals to have many of the features of a reverse, in reality made Gen. HOOKER the master of the situa tion in Virginia. We were 'officially, as sured that he would resume the offensive; artffwe knew that the rebel army, which, ac cording to the Richmond papers, was but sixty thousand strong, had suffered terribly, losing a host in the single loss of STONEWALL JACKSON. But .this situation of affairs, so desperate for the:enemy, was not allowed to endure for many weeks. Gen. HooxEn's army was materially weakened by the re.: turn of regiments whose. term of service had expired, while Gen. LEE'S army was re ported to have been reinforced from - Suf folk, Charleston, Newbern, and even from Tennessee. In a little while the "sixty thousand " had swelled, by report, to ninety thousand ; and a few days since a" correspondent of the New York He rald, in a detailed statement of '-the organization of the rebel army, made it - one hundred :and thirty-four . thousand strong. This estimate seems to us very , much'` like an exaggeration ; but ' the force named would be none too large for the . work Lir, has in contemplatiOn,- and the finues may be true. With an army there: fdre, probably as, large, if not larger than ' the Arniy of the Potomac, General LEE is aliout to make an effort to Wrest the control of 'the situation front General HOOKER'S hands. .It is of little avail to - inquire, as nutny will inquire, why;the rebels are.unt forrnly allowed to equal or outnumber us at every critical. point The difficulty, is one that must be contended with, until our armies succeed in'practically cutting the ." Confede • racy " in two in Tennessee, of at Vicks- - burg ; for the rebels have thee- advantage of interior lines, and, of:course, can concen trate their armies at any point where there is the greatest occasion for their presence. Dbubtless, they have done so in the present case ; -for we are bound to conclude that a skilful General like LEE, embarking in, a hazardous campaign, :the difficulties of which must multiply a hundred-fold_ with each day's advance, would neglect no pre caution, or fail to secure no advantage, likely to increase the chances of success. - Undoubtedly the enterprise which. LEE has undertaken is hazardous ; so hazardous, indeed, as to confirm the impression we have so often expressed, that he must be in a desperate condition—not that he, lacks men, or that his men lack spirit, but simply that they lack` supplies. Virginia cannot feed them for many months longer, and a Movement northward is imperative. It seems to us that General LEE will move with his entire force up the Shennadoah. Val ley,- take- 'Harper's Ferry and Maryland Heights, if possible,, and then proceed either against Baltimore or Washington, most probably the lattei" , point. This is evidently his intended movement; Meanwhile, in the endeavor partly to di vert attention from it, and partly to obtain supplies, the raid into Pennsylvania will, if possible, probably be repeated siraultane ou'sly at several points. It is a difficult matter, with such an extent of border as we have, to protect every- point from cavalry raids ; but • the forces assem bled at Harrisburg and Pittsburg should be able to prevent' the enemy from committing any serious , depredations. Perhaps it will not be so difficultto thwart the - main purpose of the enemy: General LEE cannot place Washington in peril out-atwith the same time placing Richmond in cfrPriter peril. . 1 7PlesS he abandons all cora ication with Richmond, he will. be cora pelled to detach a large portion of his army to+guard his lines, while General HOOXER'S communication is so short'• and so well pro tected that it will be' next to impossible for any force, however large,• to interrupt it. In fact; the . advantage of the 'interior •lines, which has rested with the rebels so long asL they hive been content to defend their.own: territory, now lies with General HOOKER ; and this is Arne, although he is not acting upon the defensrve,as the phrase is generally understood.- With such advantages, which should' counterbalance inferiority •of num bers, if such inferiority exists, the , An:l,v of the Potomac, the pride and reliance of the North, should be able to gain a-substantial victory.; arid if there be - any truth =in the . Napoleonic maxim, that "Victory , always declare for the army that best knoWs how to manceuvre," such will, indeed; be the case. The Danger and the Duty, Although the rebels are no longer in Chambersburg, nor, so far as we can'learn, in thee State of Pennsylvania, we should ; not forget the lesson of their .last invasion. The failure of JENEINS to advance on Har risburg can only be accounted for on the theory that. General LEE did not intend an invasion in force until he had defeated Ge neral HOOKER. This was our impression in '1 the beginning, and, as the situation is'deve loped, it seems to be justified. The force at Chambersburg was merely an advance 4uard for the, purpose of ' obtaining' stores, . burning a bridge or two, and, by alarming the people of the Ndith, preventing the re- inforcement of HOORE - 11. The real blow is intended to fall -elsewhere; and, although we profess no capacity for military divina tion, one or two things seem to be obvious : LEK wishes to occupy Washington. That would give the rebellion world-wide pres tige, and might become the pretext for in tervention on the part ofEuropean POwers. He wishes to posses& Baltimore as a great d6pOt for the South: - ? He would find many friends, greatresbuices, and material enough to euStain a whole campaign. The posses aion of these two points would transfer the War from the Rappahannock to' the Susquehanna and add the rich State of Maryland to the Confederacy. His cam paign, therefore, looks to the aoeoln - plishment -of these, objects. An jutted into Pennsylvania, in the meantime, would have no•other effect_ than to weaken his line - of attack,' without' bringing corresponding advantage& We must again remember, that all this while General lan is compelled to maintain long lines of communication with Richmond; or with whAteVerpOint he may select as a base of operailonsilhat *heit i jie endangers that line, he place's himself attlie mercy of the antagonistic army in his rear, and that a defeat 'in Maryland would be an nihilation : so that it is merely prudence to presume that, until a conflict has: , take a place between. LEE and 'Somme, there will be no serious invasion of the State. This makes the invasion of our State, therefore, depend upon a contingency; and as we do not know what the fortune of war will bring, this contingency must, be imme diately met. LEE is now on the shores of the. Potomac. He is said to be in Marylandi and while this is not known, it is very cer tain that he has command of the upper fords of the Potomac. HooKnu is advancing along the lower bank of the Potomac, and; if our sPeculatiOnS are not incorrect, he is, by this•-time, in force-around Harper's Ferry. It, is possible that LEE will accept or give battle near'Antictam, the scene of the;fornier contest. ;Upon that battle the result of the war, will greatly depend. If we fail, Washington will be beleaguered and Balti more Wlll 'fall. Pennsylvania would then be an inviting harvest for these deathly reapers. Pennsylvania, with its fields, and 'stores; and vast works, its wealth and fruitfulness, would be at their mercy ;" death and desola- . tion would reign e;Verywhere. So far as the,, power of the enemy compares with our own, we have le4 reason to feel s confident• than when the army of MCCLELLAN was in line of battle. On the 20th' of September, 1862, after the battle of. Antietam, the total number of men in the Army of the Poto mac, including those under the command of General BANNS <around the defences of Washington,was,l64,3s9,, andexclusive. of those under BANKS, there were more: than 100,000 men in active duty. Of these men many have been transferred elsewhere ; many have been discharged ; sickness, and death, and battle have done their, work, while thOusands have returned home at the expiration of their terms of enlistinent. It may easily be seen that the force of General - HOOKER is smaller than that of General Mc- CLELLAN, while there is no evidence to show that LEE is any weaker than when he was beaten at Antietam; The necessary infe rence is that there is, greater danger now than in September, and that greater saCri flees must be made to avert that danger. We see by a Fewspaper authority that is generally reliable, that Gen. McCLELLAN himself takes the same view of this earn paign. " Though the latest despatches an nounce the evacuation of Chambersburg," says this' writer, " Gen. MCCLELLAN is in dined to believe that the dang,er - is not yet over. He, thinks we shall-hear of the main body of LEE'S army at or near the old battle field of Antietam, in Maryland, before the week is out, with the design, probably, of moving on Baltimore. Hence, the General counsels that no abatement should be made in the exertions that are making to. organize • the militiefor defence." The great duty before us is that of so shel tering our State that its invasion will be an impossibility. If General HooKEn is de feated, the rebel power will be thrown upon us, and Pennsylvania will be the Ther mopyhe of the Union. We must, therefore, have a large= reserve force 'oikanized and• thrown along our sduthern border. There should be at least a hundred thousand men assigned to this duty, fifty thousand of whom should be raised in this State: Many of these men may be raw and undisciplined, but there will be enough veterans of, the former Army of the Potomac to, feaven and strengthen the mass. With this army in the front of LEE, HOOBER will be strong enough to encounter him successfUlly, and between the two, it is impossible for him to escape annihilation. ~.Let, Pennsylyania sustain' her.

WASHINGTON, June 19, 1863 This gust of, invading war has hidden everything from sight but the danger that came in its wake. Now, that there is a lull, we may look at the political situation, and see that the prospects of the Union triumph are bright and attractive. The enemies of the Administration are • bUsily engaged in making UP the issue,' and it will, be no fault of theirs if in the= ensuing campaign any misunderstanding exists as to their true 'Mr pose. With a degree of frankness that lutist command our praise, they have accepted the contest in its true meaning. They dis like the Administration, and a Government based on freedom'; they desire to see it oveithrown ; and as they cannot join in an armed alliance with the South, they give it all the assistance that can be given at home, by embarrassing the war power of the North, and consequently aiding the war power of the South. You had an example of this in Harrisburg a few days since. It was a time of great alarm.. The rebels had occupied Chambersburg,.and seemed about to occupy Harrisburg. The Governor of the State was'calling upon the loyal men, of the North to come to the rescue. Men were needed to throw up fortifications and defend the river. It was vital that the peo ple should be aroused to a true sense of their danger. Here were the leaders of a great • organization. They had come from all parts of the State,- and for the purpose of taking action upon the affairs of the State and country. It was an opportunity for good. Not to speak of the material aid of so many stalwart men in the trenches, or as soldiers in the line, they, might have given theirino rid influence in behalf of an outraged and imperilled Commonwealth. And yet, not a word was said, not a deed was done which manifested the slightest sympathy with the cause. We look in vain throughout their` resolutions for a single word ofi ! .cheAlal loyalty. We see the Administration de-, nounced in coarse term ;and falsehooda'are printed in words that no;:gentleman would utter. This ih, the platform on virhuh thiy have placed that cold; precise . pmilillierY jurist, Mr. Justice Woodward. ' They have given him to the Democracy of Penn sylvania, just as Mr. Vallandighain was given to the Deriapattcy"of Ohio. He is an eletherirof - §edition And Mischief,: mid shoid be so .regarded. It becomes us to' take up the gambit that had •been thrown down---to draw the lines plosely—to make no other distinction than-that made in the State of Ohio : mere loyalty to the Union.. In Ohio we have a sterling Democrat in the person of Mr. Brough, placed in the-fields against Mr. Vallandighana, and the issue. will thus be made. It is not the contest_ 9f two parties ;• it is not Republican or Beino crat ; it:is attachment, te tho_ Union; and to a_war in behalf of the Union. I am glad that the peopleare thus, enabled to make a directfight in behalf of the Administration ; for I am confident that, on a g,ool phitfornaZ and with a true man as our leader, we - shall gain a glorious victory.

Press." WASHINGTON, June 19,,1863 From the Army. One hundred and six of the wounded at Aldie, Virginia, arrived at Fairfax station last night. Yesterday or the day before four boats' crews were sent ashore at Acquia to reconnoitrer Going out on the railroad, they encountered twenty-five or thirty rebel cavalrymen, who dashed among them, firing as they advanced. The seamen returned the fire and retreated in safety. The cavalry employed themselves for a short time in examining the empty storehouses, but a few well-directed shots from the gunboats caused them to scamper as rapidly as their horses could carry them. The boat, this morning, also brought up a number of stragglers from Stafford Court aouse. They left' there on Wednesday night, and report. that there were at that time no rebels in the vicinity, nor did . theysee any on the way. - The Aeronautic Corps of, the Army of the Poto mac has been dispensed with; and the balloons and inflating apparatus have been'sent to this atty. The several corps are steadily assuming the posi tions respectively assigned to them. The Ist Army Corps, on Sunday, marched 23 miles; on' Monday, id; and on Tuesday, 30 miles. This, considering the intense heat of the weather and the previous long marches, is an extraordinarY performance. .The distance the corps marched yes terday is not known, but probably 20 miles. Other , corps, niade rapid marches, but none as- COMpliehed so great a distance-' Tlib Fight at—Ald" The cavalry engaged in the fight at Aldie, on- Wednesday, was a division under the. command of Colonel KILPATRICK and a portion of FITZ HUGH Lun's brigade, under Colonel ROUSSEAU, on the part of the rebel& _The rebel forces (cavalry and mounted infantry) had come from. the direction of . Snicker's Gap, arriving at Aldie two . hours before our forces reached that point, and the rebels, getting warning of the approach of KILEATRICK,pOIIted them selves in commanding poeitions, and their mounted sharpshooters were placed behind steneuralle, ready to pour a mut derous fire upon our advancing column. Col. RiLra.rnicx charged upon the rebel advance, and droie them furiously through the town. The. rehele then made a stand on the 'other side of the town,'where was posted a_rebel battery of four guns on the road to Ashby's Gap, and the rebel cavalry posted themselves along the woods'and stonewall towards Snicker's Gap. At this place ,desperate. charges were made by our own and the rebel cavalry alternately, and, after a fight of over threihoure, with varying success, the rebel force . seemed to be gaining e Nom advantage, when n regiment, which had been detached from the .division for that purpose, came up to the rescue, and, by a desperate charge against a rebel' battery of four guns and a regiment of mounted Mississippi infantry, the tide was turned to our side. The rebels were routed with severs loss the horses galloping over, the field, riderless, and the foe that had not been killed being captured. The victory was dearly bought by the loss of the gallant Colonel DOUTY, who fell mortally, wounded. The fight lasted four hours, andsome of the officers who participated, and who have been in other fights, say-it was a most desperate one—such cutting and elashingwith sabres not having occurred before in our encounters with , the rebel cavalry. --The force e.ngaged , Was the advance of the rebel STUART'S- Cavalry, who, it is alleged by prieoners, Were Ad vancing through Aldie with the expectation Of. making a new raid. We captured over one hundred prisoners and a battle-lag - belonging to the sth Virginia Cavalry.. Among the killed, besides Colonel DOUTY, were Capt. G.E. SIINIIIIBTT, of the let Maine, and Lieuts. D. WHITAKER and kORTIMER, of the 2d bi"ew.York. The fact that the fight was so desperate is explained by the importance of the position to be gained—the commanding gap at Aldie, in the Bull Run and Ca. toctin Ridge. .; From the Statement of. Col. DURFIE, it appears that On Wednesday afternoon, when GREGG had- carried the stonewalls near Aldie, and driven the rebel cavalrY towards Snickersville, he was ordered to proceed to Middleburg and hold that . point. His regiment.went into the engagement with three- hun dred and thirty men and twenty-five officers. On arriving at Middleburg, he was informed by some ladies that a force of rebel eavalry:greatly ,out numbering his own were encamped around the town. This was evidenced by the fact that he had dispersed a brigade who opposed his entrance; and were then making demonstrations upon him from another point He was 'alio told that the whole of STUART'S. foxes was in the vicinity, but that Sw am . himself had just left, by another route, to rein force ries, Who was then falling babk from Aldie. Determined to carry out instructions, he sent back 'messengers to Aldie for reinforcements. In the meantime the rebels, in force, Attacked DUBEIE at several different' points'. Finding himself over powered by superior numbers, .and surround ed: on. - every - . Ode, he attempted to out his Way - ' back toward7Aldie,-. but :effect ing this, he turned , toward Thoroughfare Gap, and proceeded several Miles, when he ascertained that the Gap was held by Gen. Bwica, commanding the grand centre of .L - sn's army, and that Lin was thereabout in person. DOvvre then defiled to the left, crossed the mountain at HOpe Gap, and by a tortuous route succeeded in reaching mir Outposts. Among the ;Mooing officers of his command are Lieutenant Colonel Thompson,-Major Farrington, Captain's Shortliffolliss, s, Rogei l lllen, Clhaee, Gould, and Wyman •,'Adjtitarit Pallier, Surgeon Mann,_ Lieutenants - Shuileff, Chadell, Peterson, Brown, Prentiss's, Barker, and Ellis.

The Bullatin has the following ape al despatch:, Hinursnuno, June ta.—GoverneCturtin visited Camp Curtin this morning, and reiiiiired the warm- est and most`enthusiastle welcome #efeatended to him. The soldiers followed him in vast crowds, as he drove around the camp, vainly 'endeavoring to find the commandant. r . At'the unanimous importuning of tinwolunteers he addressed them. He said that they would notice by his voice that he was prostrated i 4 health. He had called to see their officers, and -he Nras sorry to say that they were not present attending to their duties as they should be. However, the Men were here, and he would inform them of who he intended to have communicated to the officers in writing.' He said, since this unhappy, rebelli he had been much engaged. He had some' (credit With the volpnteers, and the reason was' that he had never broken his faith with them. [4eng, con tinned cheering, and cries of, ",We know it, Go 7 vernor !"] He was sorry that there was some dis satisfaction about this call. He would tell the troops t that they were called out only while this emer gency lasted, and when that was over they would be returned to their homes. He (the Governor) was to be the judge when that emerg ensy was over. He said, " our soil has been invadedand we want to drive the invaders from it. VOLu (addressing the troops) are called for this emergericy, and no longer.

The steamer LSoutherner,- whialt was recently launched at Stockton, on the Tees, has been making atrial trip. Among the' ccenpany on board was a person representing himself , as a newspaper reporter, but turned outto be a spy, and who made an affidavit lending to show that the steamer was intended for a Confederate cruiser. This affidavit was forwarded toXinister Adams, and by him [submitted to Earl Russell, who ordered the vessel to be searched. This , search, resulted in nothing to justify the sus picion of her being,. intended as a pirate, and the steamer accordingly remained unseized. The al leged spy, however, continued to hover about West Hartford, wherethe steamer was lying. Tt is stated that the vessel is intended for trade between Liver pool and Charleston.

It WAS said that a considerable infantry force was posted on the Virginia side, near Williamsport, some seven miles from Hagerstown, but of this our informant could not positively speak. It= was. reported that another infantry force was located near Antietam or Shepherdstown, and about to cross. The position of General Ewell, or the main body of his corps, seems to be unknown. Our informant could not learn that he had made his appearance in Maryhind at all, or near to it, although it was said at Hagerstown that the conciliatory , policy alluded to was dictated by him:_ > The hope of obtaining re cruits in Maryland is no doubt the secret of this conciliatory policy. Front Frederick. FARDERICIK (Md.), Tune 19.--[Special to the New York Heraid.]—Trains have resumed running from . Baltimore to this point : but not beyond. Considerable excitentett prevails here. Nearly all the prominent Union citizens have left, and the invalid soldiers in the,hospitals been removed. Everything is "quiet above. The enemy was in possession of. Hagerstown last night, their pickets extending in the direction of Funkstown. The report that the rebels have appeared at South Mountain is incorrect. Sharpsburg and Boonsboro are undisturbed, though the enemy visited Middletown. Stores have been emptied of most of their con tents, and p - reparations been mEide for an early ap pearance of the rebels. Engines have been sent to the Point. of. Rocks to bring of the locomotive dis abled by White's Cavalry. Refugees state that a detachment of our cavalry from Harper's Perry left Iloonsboro only a few mi nutes before the appearance of the enemy, who numbered abOut twenty, and came in on the road from Shepherdstown. It was -reported a that they have a large camp three miles froninOonshoro, and this party was only the advance_guard of a superior force. Very Yew persons are allowed to leave the places occupied, by the enemy, and these must give satis factory assurance of their Secession proclivities. From Shippensburg.

Thb Military ,- Excitement—Recruiting, for State Defence. - Considerable 4ouble has been experienced in- eb. taining recruits, although' the number obtained ?Ms been immense, in consequence , of the dissatisfaction existing as to the time of service. Notwithitanding the proclamation of Governor Curtin in reference' to this point, the matter does not yet seem to be fully understood. The Governor, in the course of a speech made to the soldienr. at Camp Curtin, dis tinctly stated that he only wanted the services of all who volunteered for the, present' emergency, and that they should be returned tretheir homes as soon ne t in his opinion, that . emergency was over. The Governor gave as his reason for the mustering of the recruits into the United States service, that they might secure their pay and equipments at the expense of •the General Government. This plain explanatimkwill, no doubt, prove beneficial to the public interests'. Recruiting progressed rapidly, and was attended with the usual spirit and enthusiasm during yester day. Although , everytliing was conducted with lent bustle and stir, than during the early part of the week, yet as much was accomplished:during yester- day 'as'any preceding day. The most important events of the day were the following: • AnnIVAL OF NinV "YORK ItEGIXENTS. The 22d Regiment N. Y. S. 211. reached this city yesterday morning, and were entertained at ifie Vo lunteer Refreshment Saloons. They subpequently marched to the depot and left for IT.arrisburg. The regiment numbers about six hundred men, and is commanded• by Colonel Aspinwall.; The men are fully uniformed, armed, and - equipped, ready for the field, and as they passed through the streets .their Soldierly appearance attracted general attention. The regiment was acconipanied by, an excellent brass band and a full druM corps. - Adjutant General Hall, of New York, arrived in this city- yesterdarmorning, and , accompanied by his staff, paid his respects to Mayor Henry. While at the IYlnyoria offices the 22d New York Regiment: pasied, and were reviewed by the General' and the Mayorirom the steps.

They were entertained at the Refreshment Saloons. Like the 22d, they are fully equipped and armed. A COLORED REGIMENT TO BE RAISED. Thomas Webster, Esq., Vice Chairman= of the Citizens , BoUnty Fund Committee, received yester day afternoon the following communication relative to a colored organization in this city : , . OFFICE OF THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, June 19, - 1863, Thos. Webster, Esq : • DEAR SIR lam instructed to receive and muster into service one (1) regiment of ten (10) companies of colored troops. Each company must be eighty (80) strong. They will be mustered into service, and provided for in all respects the same as for . white troops: Please give this as much publicity as possi ble, to effect the object in view. Your ob't - a F. RUFF, Lieut. Col. U. S. A., Conimanding. The work of forming colored regiments should now be commenced in earnest. The recruiting com missioner for colored troops is now in this city, where his presence and co-operation have been so licited by a number of leading gentlemen. A me morial, signed by upwards of two hundred Phila delphians, including some of the most prominent and conservative citizens, has been forwarded to Washington, praying the Government to commence at once the work of organizing ‘ black regiments in Pennsylvania, and asking for such facilities as will make the work:effective.' A committee is in pro cess of formation to raise funds to defray recruiting expense& The commissioner is assisted by J. M. McKim, whose relations to the cause, and the fact of his en joying alike the confidence of the white and black communities, makes him a valuable auxiliary. Mr... McKim has taken an active part in the subject of black enlistments, from the beginning. Hairing seen the Port Royal industrial movement put into suc cessful operation—to the great advantage of the black Man—he now desires to see a successful mill, tary organization of the colored people, brought un der the eyes of the world, in confident expectation of advantages still greater. There will be no diffi culty in raising one or two regiments in this city, if the affair is properly oenducted, as it most certainly will be. THE diTy This place at present is all life and activity. Day and night, during the whole of the past week, the officers have been in attendance filling up therequisitions for arms, accoutrements, and equipments for the vari ous military organizations of the city. Many compa nies have been fitted out with overcoats, blankets, caps, blouses, knapsacks, haversacks, canteens, tin cups, knives, forks, spoons, plates, arms, accoutre ments when required, and, in fact, everything neces sary to put them in prime condition -for • immediate Service. The arrangements for the delivery of these large quantities of military trappings have been so complete that a full renfiiiiitiOn for one hundred men is filled in thirty minutes fromthetimeitis received. The importance of- such an establishment in a trying. emergency - like the presentis now beginning to be • fully understood and appreciate& " • MATTERS OpTERALLY The company of Germantown Home. Guards, un der Captain Marks J. Biddle, which has left for Har risburg, contains a nuniber of the wealthiest and most influential citizens of the Twenty-second wardp. - A company of eighty men, who arrived from Bucks county, intending to join some one of the regiments on their way to Harrisburg, were treated to a supper and lodgings, and a hearty breakfastyeaterday morn ing, by Mr. Marmaduke Watson; of the Madison House. A meeting of officers who wish to connect them selves with the Light Guard Regiment; now being formed by Col. George P. McLean, will be held at the county Court House, this evening, at 8 o'clock. The„officers are expected to report at the meeting the number of men that each can bring. Col. McLean was formerly commander of the gallant Eighty; eighth, - and, after performing honorable service, was compelled to resign, from disability brought on by TROOPS GOING THROUGH BOTH WATS During the past forty-eight hours the at the Cooper Shop Saloon were "gay and_happy." The same may be said of the Union. These saloons are again the objects of more than ordinary attraction; and, if it lithe "desire of the people of Philadelphia to maintain. hem, the, subscriptions should be made with Out the committee being driven to the necessity of begging. To beg is simply beneath the character of the gentlemen who are willing to give their time to maintain the reputation already gained for Phila. delphia by these institutions. The mere mention of the Cooper Shop in the army bringaat ,ortee .to the mind of the soldier on the tented field, or midnight picket, a happy hour, with its kindred pleasant recollections. After - the New York 7th was fed at the Cooper . Shop, 'then came Company B, Captain Marshal; of New Jersey, 70 men, for the defence of Pennakl yenta'. - The Chester Guards, Captain Thetcher, 70 men, filed into the Cooper Shop and entertained. During yesterday the following .regiments passed: through on their return from the. war: 22d New Jersey, 780 men ; 26th New Jereey,'76o men'; 29th New Jersey, 750 men; 30th New 'Jersey, 800 men. While all the above was going on; ,the 22d — New York _and the 37th New York arrived en route for The 28th New Jersey, on the return from the war, wereexpected to areive imme time early this morn- Other regiments from New York, for the war, are expected to arrive to-day;•equads from New Jersey will also eo through for the defence of the State of Pennsylvania. A number of the most active men of the Cooper' Shop COmmitteohave also 'gone to the defence of Pennsylvania, and are now at Camik The Committee may be said to be:light handed, and have to,work much harder thaw ever. The neighbors, resident in the vicinity of the Cooper Shop, Were on hand and rendered willing assistance during the great'emergency yesterday. _ ARRIVAL .08,..TH8 FIFTY-SIXTH,- BROOKLYN , = -This' regiment, Col. Adams commander, arrived is town at a. late hour last night, and were hand ;comely entertained at the refreshment saloons; after which they. marehed up into the ' city, but through some znisunderatanding transportation had not been provided for them. -.The regiment halted in front of Independence Hall; and were iu a short: time pro vided with quarters for the night. • THE FORMATION OF COLORED -REGl ariorrs.—Last evening, a Meeting was held at Sin som.street Hall, for , the,purposer. of;appointing an . Executive Committee to superintend the recruiting of colored regiments. Col. George H. °roman was called to the chair, and Henry Samuel was 'appoint ed Secretary. • - Col. Crosman, on taking the chair, expressed his regret that the attendance was , not larger, but at the same time thought it a great honor to preside over this body. He to the fact that at. one time'. he had been a slaveholder himself, and was as much opposed to the negro • tia any one. - Within thnpast three years, however, he had become as much im 'ppreseed in their favor as he, ad been against them. Be spoke of the colored troops employed in; Europe, where at first they were /ooked..upon with as much distriset as , here.
