affair, enlivening the confulenee of lair•
people in the strategetie ahility of our
Lieut. General.
Advices from the City Point :ire to the
effect, that Gelieral Grant has again in
itiated a forward moveinent against Rich
moni. On Saturday last the Second
Corps was marched on boar 1 transports
and, with playing stemmed down
the Jetties river, evidently on their wind
ing way to Washington. Down the river
to the delight of the Rebels, the troops
did go, but when darkness fell on the
land, the steamers turned round and
pushed up the river, past Bermuda
Hundred to a point above, and within
twelve miles of 'Richmond, whine, the
corps was disembarked. By this move
ment the Rebels were completely sur
prised, and Hancock again 'Aided fresh
laurels to his fame by attacking the ene

and seven pieces of artillery. The 10th
Corps, with Hancock's artillery, also
crossed to the north bank of the river on
Saturday evening, and the troops were I
all over by three o'clock in the morning.
These forces in addition to those of Gen.
Foster, who has held a position near Mal

Advice.: from Fort Leavenworth arc to
the effect that on Sunday, the 7th inst.,
the hostile Indians commenced an indis

region of the Little Blue and along the
stage route. The people of Northwest
Kan..sag have been inhumanly murdered,
their crops burned or otherwise destroy

savages. It is well ascertained that all
the Indian tribes are now banded to
gether for war, awl doubtless, to a great
extent, urged into it by the Babel etnis
saries. General Intuit has stopped the
sale of arms and ammunition to thetmand
forbidden them to leave their reserva

By our last account , from the Shenan
doah Valley it is ascertained that Early's

was thought he would await reinforce
ments from Richmond, when he would
probably turn end give battle to the
Union army. Skirmishing was in pro
gress between our advance pickets and
the energy's rear * guard. A few da
will decide whether there is t be nom.

Our forces are now in possession of Stras
burg. On our advance - towards the
town, the enemy. whose force consisted
of but a skirmish line, fell back out of
the town. leaving it in our possession.
The Rebels tinder Wheeler have been
making some demonstrations on Sher

line of eonaillunication, On the evening
of the 14th the enemy appeared before

Startling Deval.,pments

well as others in the western part of the
State, have mysteriously disappeared
from their homes, and no trace could pos

notwithstanding the most diligent search
WAS made for them. Recently, however,
some startling developments have come
to light through the arrest of a young
girl named Jennie Thompson, at Utica,
who was attired in male habiliments, and
went under the assumed name of James
Thompson. Upon searching her, some
enormously rascally documents were
found, making startling revelations.—
There was a manuscript copy of what
purported to be the constitution and by
laws of the " Knights of the Secret
Circle." In this document the object
of the Circle is said to be to kidnap and

Fraudulent Substitutes
The high price of substitutes, which
now ranges from .5.100 to $lOOO per• man
is aiding largely to the incentives to
fraud among brokers,deserters and others.
rendering much caution necessary on the
part of those who may be required to fur
nish and pay for them. The risks are nu
merous. All sorts of men will present
themselves or be offered by agents as
substitutes. Every . " bounty jumper in
the country will seek to take advantage
of the occasion and make all the money
he can. Now the law expressly declares
that if a substitute shall, after enlistment,
prove to be a deserter, his principal will
not he exempted, but will again bo held
liable,uniess ho furnishes another and an
approved substitute. _There have been
several such eases. Several persons,who
It - ad furnished substitutes and thou..;ht
themselves out• of trouble, have been
called upon to respond to the draft a sec
ond time. whoa it was am:dal/tined that
the substitutes presented for them proved
to have been deserters. It therefore be
comes persons to look out and see who
they take for substitutes.

a few mornings since,nut at the front,
from a musket in the hands of a member

down to the bank of Julian's Creek to
discharge their pieces. Firing into the

The- explosion .of Ordinance Boats, at
City Point, Va.
W4SI:IEINGTON, August n. —The
mail steamer Charlotte Vanderbilt, from
City Point, arrived here this morning
with the mails and a few passengers,
On Tuesday morning, shortly after the
mail steamer Dictator had left the wharf
at City Point, a terrible explosion took
place on board of two barges which were
being loaded with ordinance stores belong
ing to the Sixth Corps.
Opinions differ as to the cause of the ex
plosion, some parties asserting that it was
occasioned by one of the workmen drop
ping a box of ammunition, while others
contend that it was caused by the sparks
of cigars of officers or men ou board the
boat,
Sixty are reported to have been killed,
and between two end three hundred.
wounded. A sufficient quantity of heads,
arms and legs to fill twenty-seven sacks,
were picked up on the bee,* and the
water is said to have been literally filled
with limbs and. bodies in every state of
disfigurement. •
The 20th N.w York militia which is
doing Provost d uard duty at Ci ty. Poi nt,
lost five men killed and twenty Wounded.
Pieces of shot and shell were blown over
Corps Hospitals a mile to the rear of
City Point, and parties one hundred yards
away from the scene were killed by the
falling pieces of shells.
The keel of one of the barges was
thrown up a hill forty feet high, where
it remains. Nearly all of the buildings
near the wharf were demolished, and some
four hundred feet of a new warehouse was
destroyed. The office of Adams' 1.1 x..-
press Company is a complete wreck; but
the employees of the company, who were
in the building at the time of explosion,
escaped unharmed.
Many of the officers and men of the
Commissary Department are missing,and
supposed to be killed "but their names
have not been ascertained:
Col. Babcock, of Gen. Grant's staff,
was slightly wounded, and Dr. Prentiss,
of the 73d New York, had his loft foot
injured. A Mr.. Baxter, a sutler at City
Point, is amonn• the killed.
The explosion is said to have shaken
the earth for miles around, and for a
time caused the greatest consternation.
Many of the buildings on the wharf at
City Point are a mass of ruins, and the
amount of loss in property will be very
heavy.
It was a fortunate circumstance that
the mail boat which arrived bare yester
day morning, had left City Point before
the explosion took place, otherwise the
loss of life would have been greater, as
she had on board a large number of pas
sengers.

A Curious and Beautiful Incident
We printed, a few days ago, (says the
New Albany, Indiana, Li Iger,) from an
Atlanta paper, an account of a mocking
bird, which, at the battle of ltesaca,
perched itself on the top of a tree, and
during the fight imitated the 'whistling
of bullets, and other noises incident to a
battle. Another and more touching in
cident of a similar character was lately
related to us by Capt. G. Babbit, nf Gen
eral Gresham's staff, and of which he
was himself a witness. During the fierce
cannonading at Nickajack, a small bird
came and perched upon the shoulder of
an artillery-luau—the man designated, we
believe, as "No. 1," whose duty it is to
ram down the charge after the ammuni
tion is pit in the gun. The piece was a
Napoleon, which makes a very loud re
port. The bird, as we have stated,
perched itself upon this man's shoul
der, and could not be driven from its
position by the violent motion of the gun
ner. When the piece was dicharged,the
poor little thing would run its beak and
head up under the man's hair at the
back of the neck, and when the rep - trt
died awaylwould resume its place upon his
shoulder. Captain Babbit toJk the
bird in his hand, but when he released
his grasp it immediately resumed its
place on the shoulder of the smoke-be
;;rimmed gunne,r. The scene was wit
nessed by a large number of officers :and
men. It may be a subject of curious in,.
quiry, what instinct led this bird to thus
place itself. niSsibly frightened at the
violent commotion caused by the battle,
and not knowing how to escape or where
to go, sonic instinct led it to throw itself
upon this gunner as a protector. But,
whatever the cause, the incident was a
most beautiful and pleasing one to all
who witnessed it.
