Nearly all, perhaps all the men dischar
ged from the Philadelphia custom house,
whom th" Democrat claim* as X
were tli ,-e who had aided the
-•outhern traitor- by every in .an* in th ir
j iver -iuce they began the foul work of
• 1 ttroying our government. On the
!;••• t- and iu bar-room?, they were over
i'- 'dy to denounce every measure caleu'ta

it was nut until public inuignation caused
number of them to be notified that thev
h-t l -ai l ar. 1 done enu igb, that they eeus
ed their work of publicly aiding and abc-t
--tin_ treason. If the Lcwislown Demo
crat has tear- to sued f-.r the dismiss;.l of
such vagabonds, it ought by nil means to
bring out Li* office this Jail a few of the
democratic t<jnes yet remaining in this
c .anty, who, like staying sheep, ought to be
belled, so that every one would know
their proclivities. A It-son to such
at the polls would probably be of some ser
vice.
Border State Convention.
Our reader- will perhaps remember that
among the last act- of the Virginia black
leg convention which plunged that State
int i treason and anarchy, was the recom
mendation to hold a Border State Conven
tion to remedy the evil., of disunion. This
Convention met at Frankfort, Kv. and
the latter Mate and Missouri were only
represented. An address was issued,
signed by J. -J. Crittenden, Jas. Guthrie,
and others, in which the nigger figures
quite a? conspicuously as he does in ordi
nary times. This is sheer nonsense. The
Border Mates can get ample security on
the Gave question in but oz way. and tha'
i* by aiding to put down the southern
traitors. A - for standing neutral in such
a conte-t and at the same time talking
about the north yielding to new slavery de
mands on the part of such ttcufrah. is as
absurd as foolish. The northern mind is
solely filled with the preservation of the
liberties of "hit- men at present, and does
not even think of the nigger, except per
haps when reading an account of a stray
chattel who has fled from service, when
the natural reflection comes up "This is the
result of Jeff. Davis A Cos work." Aid
that work, Mr. ( rittenden, and in a few
years the border States will not need talk
about -ecunng light.- for slavery, for thev
will have no slaves; but, on the other
hand, shoulder your musket, and put down
traitors and treason, and your runaways
will be returned more faithfully than they
have ever been, and that tuo without any
compromises.
e are pleased to learn that arrange
ment are being made in the State Govern
ment a! 3lyrri-burg to advance one month's
pay t_> e\ cry .oluntecr now mustered into
Service from the State of Pennsylvania
The amount of money thus to be distribu
ted wiil be over three hundred thousand
dollar-, and it will, no doubt, be refunded
by the Government at Washington The
Governor deserves great credit for the man
ner in which he has thus appreciated the
-wants of our soldiers. We trust that the
example of Pennsylvania will be followed
by the other .States who have soldiers under
arms.
The Pennsylvania Fifth is the title of a
nc-w-paper issued at Alexandria by the
printers of the Fifth regiment. It is edi

LATEST NEWS
We give below the war new? in the or
der in which it was received :
The Skirmish at Fairfax Court House-
The Washington Star of Thursday eve
ning last says: -We have absolute confir
mation, from the lips of a reliable citizen,
who wa- at Fairfax Courthouse on Thurs
day night last, when Lieutenant Tomkins'
command entered that village, of the ac
count of the killed brought by his com
mand to this city. Our informant him
s, If -aw ten dead Disunionists, and also
saw a trouper in the course of the engage
ment ride up into a low porch and cut
down two Disunionists whom he did not
c- unt among the ten dead seeu by him
self, not knowing whether they were kil
led outright. The dead bodies were hur
ried into a hole dug near the court house
building, as s on on the following day as
the terror of the people there enabled
them to attend to the matter. It was free
ly -aid. directly after the fight, in the hear
ing of our inf- rmant. by persons iu the
viliam, that the dead numbered about thir
ty. And. ere leaving the place, lie heard
dire threats made against any citizen who
should report the fact that more than one
man was killed on their side. We have
been as.-ure-I of this last fact by no less j
than three distinct persons who visited
Fairfax Court House in th course of Sat
urday and Sunday last.
The Disunion troops engaged in the af
fair firmly believed themselves a match for
five times their number of' I "nited States
troop-. The re-ult proved that engaging
f.ne-third their own number of United
State? troops, and having the advantage of
fighting f'r mi beh'nd walls and fences,
against cavalry, too, they 10.-t ten for every
one they killed. We fancy they must now
c mi prebend that any one of them i- not
equal in the field to five of those who now
fight for the -tar* and stripes.
The Surprise at Phillippi, Virginia.
Col Kelly, who was reported mortally
wounded, i.- now said to be in a fair way
of recovery. Some 15 rebel? were found
dead in the bushes. A correspondent of
the Wheeling Intelligencer, in giving an
account of the light, and the flight of the
chivalry, closes as follows :
It is very certain that somebody was
hurt, and right badly too. A leg, which had
been torn off by a cannon ball, was picked
up in the camp. There was a great deal of
bin-d □ pen the ground, and all along the
road in the direction of the flight, on the fen
ces, and on everything in the way of the in
discriminate retreat. Hats, blankets and
cloaks, and every imaginable description of
luggage, were scattered along th* road fir
mere than a mile. I saw one of the secess
i n hats, with a veritable cockade, which a
chap was wearing around town to-day with
a great deal of gusto. The rebels left behind
some forty horses, all their provisions, their
baggage, and camp equipage, and a good
many ban U< me uniform*, together with
440 stand of arms, all of of which fell into
the bands of the victors. The hat and epau
lettes of Col. I'orterfieU. the secession com
mander, were picked up in the road.
Several prisoners were taken besides Sirnms,
among them D. M. Anvil, prosecuting attor
ney, and the long looked-for, taken at last.
Colonel Wiiiey, of burnt-bridge fame. He
professes to be terribly unwell, and lie ought
to be, if ho fully appreciates his situation.
Capt. llobinson, of the Logan Guards, had
the honor of making the capture. Col. Wil
ley's commission from the Confederate au
thorities, with some interesting corresp n
dence, was found upon h's per? n. Several
. hats, apparently belonging to officers, were
picked un. and ah .rse and buggy, belonging
to 13. F. Martin, a Pruntyrown lawyer an 3 de
feated Secession candidate for the Legislature,
were part of the spoils. Thomas Furghnor,
"the inimitable lorn, as Bill Cooper used to
style him, " Captain of the Barbour forces,"
as he styles himself, and the late editor of the
Barb r JefFersonian, at the first approach of
danger, made tracks; he ran with all the
speed the shortness of hi* legs would permit,
and as fear lent him wings, he managed to
get out of harm's way.
'J he example set by the Baltimore bridge
burners is being followed by the Vandals
of 5 irginia, who are fast rendering the
public works of Maryland useless. llovv
the people of that State can stand quietly
by and see their property wantonly destroy
ed by the cutthroats of the South, almost
surpasse- comprehension, though perhaps
so long as such villains as Kane, Wallis,
Lowe, and other perjured traitors are toler
ated, nothing that occurs is much to be
; wondered at. The following are some of
the latest acts of the rebels;
The bridge at the Point of Rocks and
the bridge at Berlin were both destroyed
by the rebels, by fire, between 1 and 4
o'clock on .Sunday morning. The former
is twelve miles and the latter six miles
east of Harper's Ferry.
Tliey also destroyed Dam .No. 5, on the
Potomac, eight miles above Williamsport,
on Sunday, to prevent the construction of
boat-bridges on its breast for the passage
of the Federal troops, and it was expected
they would destroy Dam No. 4, nine miles
below Williamsport.
Despatches from Uagerstown show that
quite u border war js in progress between
the Unionists of Williamsport, Suarpsburg
and M- rcerville and the Virginia .-eees-sion
ists. ibe latter not only seem determined j
to destroy the dams, but have actually
crossed the Potomac at various points and i
seriously damaged the locks, broke up ca- i
! nal boats, and attempted to rob them of ;
their contents. They had tailed iu their ;
attempt to destroy dam No. 1 on account
of the resistance of the Maryland Home i
Guard. Ali the boats and scows in the ;
river have been destroyed, and we have a
confirmation of the destruction of bridges ;
at the Point of Rocks and Berlin, as well
as of the Canal locks between Harper's
Jerry and the Point of Rocks. This wan- j
ton destruction of Maryland property
-i.oaU be at onco checked by a c nipetent
force. The small force of secessionists at
Shepherdstowu was Monday reinforced
by a whole regiment, and the bridge at
that point has Lcen so arranged that they
can destroy it at any moment they think
necessary. There are still a number of
fine fords on the river, and abundance of
guides on the Maryland border to lead the
way to them.
On Monday three battalions of the Ris
triet Volunteers took up the line of march,
and were to be follow i by several other
regiments, with the necessary accompani
ment of artillery and cavalry. They took
the turnpike road for liockville, Maryland,
and their destination is supposed to be a
ferry on the Potomac, thirty miles from
Georgetown, and four miles from Lees
burg, Virginia, the terminus of the Alex
andria and Leesburg Railroad. It will
thus be seen that the plan of attack on the
Confederate forces at the Ferry includes an
advance from three directions. The main
force, under BrLauitr General Thomas, of
the United States Army, is advancing from
Chaiubersburg. Prom the West a portion
of the force operating under the order- of
General McUkiian is known to have reach
ed Cumberland. And now from Washing
ingti u the third column i- advancing up n
the Perry. The whole of the force thus
concentrated toward the Ferry is not less
than twenty-five thousand men. Unless
the Confederate lbree can be largely rein
forced they will be obliged to retreat, or
permit themselves t > be -unrounded by a
superior force. Whether they can be re
inlorced without weakening the force at
Manassas Junction -o as to invite attack
there and tiiu- peril their line of com in u
ideation, is a question which can only be
answered by event.-. The column advan
cing from Chamber-burg had m t reached
II igor-town on Monday. The military ac
tivity at Washington is reported f. be very
great. It is also reported that Major Gen
eral Ranks is to take command of the de
partment of Annapolis and Baltimore,and
that General Cadwallader is to conduct a
column, probably consisting of the three-
Pennsylvania regiments now at Baltimore,
byway of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road. to support the movement upon Har
per's Ferry.
A detachment of United States troops,
un ler command of Col. Smith, stationed
at Annapolis, on Sunday visited Kaston,
on the Eastern Shore, and t k possession
of the State arms in the arsenal there.—
The arms were delivered without rc-i-tanee.
and a recipt given tor them.
A letter to the Richmond Whig from
Manassas Junction, an extract which rea.-h
--e? u- by telegra] h from Louisville, gives a
discouraging report of the condition of the
Confederate force at that joint. There
was, on the Oth inst, a large sick list, and
it was feared thai one-fifth of the force
would soon be sick. There were no hospi
tal arrangements, and water so scarce that
it was dealt out with the rations.
Gov. Hick- publishes his promised vin
dication against the charge of having or
dered or consented to the burning of the
briJues that fallowed the riot of the Jbtli
of April in Baltimore city. The Gover
nor not only adduce- many strung circum
stances to show the improbability of the
charge, but also bring.- forward evidence t<>
show that the party which burnt the bridges
had actually left the city on their mi.-siou
previous to the hour at which his as-cut i
alleged to have been given. The Gover
nor boldly makes and -irongly su.-tains the
charge that the riot and the subsequent
bridge burning, Ac., were parts of a delib
erately arranged conspiracy to precipitate
Maryland into rebellion.
A lady of undoubted veracity who ar
rived at Washington on Monday from
A quia Creek, represents the number of se
cessionist- killed during the bombardment
at that place at not less than fiity with a
goodly number wounded.
The War on the Mississippi.
The Government is preparing a number
ol gunboats on the Mississippi. Some of
these will be cased with iron to resist the
shot from th-. batteries erected upon that
river. Others will be strongly built tug
boats, strengthened for war purposes. The
lower Mississippians feci much concerned
about these manifestations, and at Xew
Orleans, particularly, there is a great deal of
apprehension entertained of an invasion
from above. Every little movement above
Cairo is chronicled as soon as made, and
a great deal more space given to events
there, than those transpiring near the seat
of the federal Government. The Western
movement will, no doub*, be a formidable
one when it commences its work, and Xew
Orleans will be its object.
A correspondent of the Xew Fork Tri
bune gives the following;
WASHINGTON*, June 0, 1801.
The important movements of the campaign
have begun. A portion of the force which
moves from this direction towards Harper's
Ferry has marched. Other regiments will
soon follow.
Major General Banks will take command
at Baltimore, while General Cadwallader,
whom he relieves, leads a column from the
Relay House to co operate with General Pat
terson's force, which will move byway both
of llagerstown and Frederick.
General McDowel's command will fully oc
cupy the attention of the rebels at Manassas
Junction, while the three columns are inclo
sing Harper's Ferry.
It is certain that, beside the New Hamp
shire regiment, some 1,500 or 2,000 District
volunteers, the Rhode Island regiment, and
the Xew York 9th will be in the column of
advance: probably, also, the New York 12tl
and 7ist.
A battery of artillery has already started
byway of Georgetown and the Chain Bridge.
Other troops —volunteer and regular—have
marched or gone by rail. Several other reg
iments start early in the morning.
It is said that 10,000 men will be on the
march in time to co-operate in the movement.
Harper's Ferry will fali in season to empha
size the action of the Wheeling Convention,
which meets on Tuesday. Fifteen delegates
are to represent Eastern Virginia and the val
ley.
An officer and private of the Virginia cav
alry were captured six or seven miles beyond
the lines by a scouting paTtv of the Pennsyl
vania sth, through the patri tic instincts of
the regiment dog. lie reported to his supe
rior officer, ly insisting upon continually re
turning to a certain point, that he had treed
the enemy. The party followed liiin and
came suddenly upon four rebels in uniform,
two of whom they succeeded in taking pris
oners.
There is no doubt that General Scott is ful
ly apprised of the plan- of the enemy, and
iuliy prepared to meet and discomfit them.
Though the scheme ascribed to Davis and
Beauregard may nt be the real one in mat
ters of detail, it i- so in substance.
Maryland was the vulnerable spot through
which they intended to deal Washington and
the country a terrible blow, and this week is
the time at which that blow was to have been
struck. Frederick City and Baltimore were
ready to a*-is:, and it wa- arranged that a
large body of men should be thrown between
tbe Capital and the X rth.
If they bo not more wary than is probable,
the blow they meditate will recoil upon them
selves. The points which they desert in or
der to assume the offensive may fall into our
hands, and tbe fore - with which they intend
to move forward may be cut off in detail.
Should Harper"- Ferry and Manissas
Junction, as well as th<- troops which have
hitherto garrisoned each, and perhaps a re
inforcement fi. ui Richmond, al- > fail at a
blow, the leaders will have to thank their own
temerity, and tbe e entry will be indebted to
the vigilance of General Scott.
BY THIS MORNING S MAIL.
Unfortunate Collision.
Two regiment- of U. S. troops were
moved from different points near Fortres-
Monroe on Monday, and by a fatal mistake
fired into each other, kiiiing one man, fa
tally wounding two others, with several
slight casuahtics. The affair occurred be
tweon a German regiment and Co!. Town
send's Albany regiment—the former it
seems not having understood the signal.
Engagement at a Battery.
An engagement took place between two
regiments of U. S. troops under General
Pierce of Boston, and a body of rebels,
on the road to Great Bethel, where an ef
fort was made to take a large masked bat
tery, but from want of artillery failed.—
i he jdan of attack seems to have been bad
ly carried out. a? our troops were for some
time exposed to the fir . of the enemy with
out means of returning it. Lieut. Grelde

ted from 20 to JO killed and K'Ow--untied.
Uur readers by this time know what fiv.-t
telegraphic reports are, and must therefore
take the above with due allowance. The
main facts may or may not be true.
The Soldiers' Clothing.
From the subjoined letter, addres-cd to
Judge Fmyser, it is presumed that Gov.
Curtin has received some definite informa
tion respecting the clothing of the two
regiment- which gave rise to the wholesale
ehur_t.- made by many new-pa per.- He
takes strong grounds in relation to the
matter, and we venture to predict that the
charges made against him and bis admin
istration of complicity, will j rove about as
truc as the dog stow, lie says :
" We have clothed almost entirely 2-1 lvgi
mc-nts: much uf tier clothing is very good,
some of it of indifferent quality, and that ot
the two Regiments referred to utterly unfit
for use. This clothing is neither of the stan
dard nrr quality of the samples. Imp -iti n
and fraud have been practiced somewhere, I
and a- so >n as I can get a little r-.iiet fr in
the pressure now upon me, 1 will turn the
industry and energy which whether for g ;>d
or Lr evil, for more than a month 1 have giv
en to tiie service >f my country, to the detec
tion and punishment of the guilty, whether
it may fall on officials, agents ur contractor-.

Senator Douglas' Last Hours.
The Chicago Tribune, in a long notice
of Senator Douglas, says :
"In bis last days he gave those who stood '
near to minister to his wants the most convin
cing assurances of the depth and earnestness
uf the lively love of country that filled his
heart. In his waking hours, as well as in
those moments when the violence of his dis
ease unseated his great intellect, he was busy
with national events, and the conflict that i
now upon us. It was his last wish that the
work which will regenerate the country while
rescuing it from his enemies should go rapid
ly on.
To one, in a wandering moment, he said, •
" I station you at the Relay House. Move
on 1" Of another he asked, *' Why do wo
stand still ? let us press on 1 Let u- to Alex
andria quick!" To still another he said,
" Telegraph to the President, and let the col
umn move on!"' And so throughout the pro
gress of the disease, which struck him down
—he was thinking of his country and her
peril. At Washington, in his imaginings,
and in the command for which nature h id fit
ed him, and which would have been bestowed
had he lived, he seemed to direct events and
dictate victory. And when the lucid inter
vals cann, he was, if not so emphatic, cot less
sincere.
The salvation of the Republic was upper
meat in his thoughts by day and by night.
His own condition, the imminent perilof death,
his complicated affairs gave him no concern.
Almost his last coherent words were an arl-.nt
wish for the honor and prosperity of the Re
public, by the defeat and dispersion of her en
emies. The country, regardless of party dis
tinctions, wherever the love of the Star's and
Stripes is not repressed by the terrorism
which he knew and hated, will treasure up
his dying prayer and make his hopes and as
pirations the rule of patriotic endeavor."
few weeks ago a small child of Hen
ry 11. Shaeffer, a few miles abo-e Middle
burg, was accidentia killed. Mr. Shaeffer
was engaged in hauling wood, several of his
children were on the wagon, when one of
them unhappily fell off, and the loaded wag
ou passing over its body, killed it almost in
stantly.
