fbMorbllqpto. E. O. GOODRICH, EDITOR. "TOWANDA : Thursday Morning, June 19, 1862. THE LATEST WAR NEWS. The Uuirni Ibss-es io-the late fierce battle at Port Republic are particularly reported. A glance at the paiofuliy lor.g list of names will show with what despcrat courage onr brave heroes contested the grouad, against a force more than five times their number, led by Jackson in person, to whom, as he well knew, defeat would be utter destruction. We had not more than 2,500 men ia the fight—parts only of seven regiments, with a squad of cavalry ; that cf this small force nearly one quarter are kiiled and wounded, ia eloquent testimony to their courage and valor. The 7th Indiana reached Port Repulicwlth only about 300 men; they return 211 killed, wouuded and missing. This gallant regiment held the right wing for four honra against a vastly superior force. Late accounts from Gen. Halieck's army state that Gen. Buell, with 60,000 men, em bracing two divisions of his origiual corps.and all of Gen. Pope's forces, are in close pursuit of the rebels nnder Gen. Polk. Gen. W. T. Sherman's division ia on the Memphis and Charleston Railrcad.repairing the bridges and the track betweeD Corinth and Grand Junc tion. Gen. Wood's division, of Buell's corps, i 3 repairing the bridge over Bear Creek, 26 miles east of Corinth, on the Memphis and Charleston Riilroad. Gen. Thomas has 6,- 09C men in Corinth,who are giving that town and surrounding conntry a thorough renova tion. Gens. MeClcruand and Wallace are at Purdy, with 2,000 men. The Railroad from Corinth to Jackson, Tenn., is being rapidly put iu order, as also that from Jackson down to Grand Junction ; so that in any emergency before the completion of the bridges between Corinth and Grand Junction, troops may be forwarded without delay. Communication by railroad with Columbus, Ky., is expected to be opened iu a few days. Saturday's dispatches from the army before Richmond report active and mysterious move ments on the part of the Rebels, but for what purpose was not apparent. Large bodies were moving from Richmond toward the late battle field ; oar pickets at Old Church were driven in, and early iu the morning an artil lery fire was begun upon Geo. Sumner's front. The Rebels seemed to be feeling for a weak spot, preparaioiy to ranking another general attack. No dispatches were received on Sun day at Washington 'rem McClellan's army ; the Fortress Monroe telegraph fine was on of order. Norfolk is get!ing into better feeling ; Uu iou seutiments begin to find expression, and trade is reviviug. At) expedition to Deep Creek, 15 miles from Norfolk, on Friday, dis covered a rebel post-office that kept regular communication with Richmond. It was, of course, broken np. It is thought there are no Rebel forces east of the Blackwater River, which is nearly 40 miles by rail from Norfolk. All is quiet at Memphis. Two Eteamers laden with sugar, cottou, and molasses, had left for St. Louis. Many citizens were leav ing for the North. It is is said there that, after the evacuation of Corinth, Gen. Hind man had gODe back to Arkansns with all the troops from that State. Kir* TLe Battle of Cross Keys, cn Sunday between the forces of Jackson and Fremont, was a complete victory for the latter. It was closed by the coming cn of night, and durim: the darkness the Rebels pursued their retreat. On Monday morning Fremont advanced in lino of battle, but tho enemy were missing, having left all their dead and many of their wounded on the field. Five hundred dead bod ies were found, and their wounded were in ev ery houre along the road toward Fort Repub lic. Ambulances, wagons, arms, and clothing strewed the field. The 6th Lonisiana lost all but thirty men. Ou Monday morning Jack son crossed the South Branch o( the Suenan dob at Port Republic, burning the bridge (for the possession of which he had the fight with General Shields's,) aud hastened ou toward the Blue Ridge. He will have no rest until be his pat that natural barrier between his ar my and the avenging forces of the Pathfinder, i It is net impossible, even if he sncceeds in crossing the mountains, that he will find Mc- Dowell in his path, as it is comparatively easy to send up forces from Fredericksburg byway of Gordonsviile. In any event, Jackson has l had about as lively a rime since he left Win- 1 cheater as the most enterprising rebel could desire. It cannot be denied that he has work ed with tremendous energy, and fought brav ly. General Fremont's official dispatch speaks iu high terms of the conduct of officers and men in the battle cf Cross Keys. He rates his killed at 125, and his wounded at about 500. His advance was just on the heels of Jackson's rear guard at Port Republic,so close that some of the Rebel officers left their horets as they ran acroßS the bridge, which they had just fired. PENNSYLVANIA QUOTA or THE DTRECT TAX. —On Saturday morning last, the State Treas srer paid to tho Assistant Treasurer of the U. S. $350,000, the final installment of Pennsyl vania's quota of the direct tax imposed by the ftCt of C'oDgress of July last,the whole amoant paid being nearly $2,000,000. This prompt, cess saves 15 par pen*. authorised to be.de- BUed. PRIZES CAPTURED. Our Navy is haviDg a good time of it in capturing prizes. It is stated that out hundred seventy piizes have been taken. In con sequence of the delay of the Government offi cers in New York aud other cities in condemn ing the rebel vessels and cargoes captured, it is impossible to statu now the value of the prizes, hence no estimate can be made of the enormous amount of prise money to be distri buted among the 6ailors in the naval service. Some idea, however, m#y be formed of the total by the single case of the Circassian,which ! arrived at New York a few days ago. This | vessel and cargo is valued at $1,500,000. The ' sailors who captured her will, when she is con demned, receive about $1,300 each. It is said there are some fifteen vessels equally valuable now on the ocean trying to run the blockade. About twenty thousand first class Enfield rifles have recently been captured by our navy, together with the vessels containing them, while in the act of attempting to run the blockade. It is said that English speculators iu arms have shipped about twenty thousand Enfieid rifles to Nassau, where they dispose of them to rebel agents, who reship then with the expectation of running the blockade. steamships Bavaria and China, from Liverpool to St. John's, N. F., bring us a week from Europe. The China, a new Cunard steamer, made the passage from Quecnstown to Cape Race in five days and seventeen hours. The Admiralty have grant ed to the Atlantic Telegraph Company the services of the ships and crews necessary for revising and exteuding the former surveyes of the route along which the oabie is intended to be submerged. Further negotiations are in progress, the result of which will undoubtedly lead to facilities for raising the additional cap ital necessary to complete this noble enter prise. The Steamer Porpucine is to prepare to take soundings, and will be ready iu about ten days. English news is unimportant. The House of Commons, on the 31 iost., divided on the motion against the Government for a reduction of the exjwraditures, and the motion was negutived by 365 majority. A vessel with a cargo of salt had sailed from Liverpool for New Orleans. The J loniteur publishes an Im perial decision reducing the French array in Rome to a siugle division, consisting of three divisional brigades, under the command of Gen. Montebello. Accounts from the manu facturing districts of Frauce are favorable, aud the silk and other crops most satisfactory.— Garibaldi had an]explanation at Turin with the King's Aid-de-Camp. It is reported that all differences between the Government and Gar ribaldi had been arranged, aud he proceeded to Belgrade. The Turks have beaten the Montenegrins over the frontiers. Four villa ges were burned, acd 700 Montenegrins killed. The Montenegrins had been repulsed several times, and were flying to the mountains. Cot ton at Liverpool had advanced ont-fourth pence. Breadstufl's generally dull and steady. Provisions heavy, with a declining tendency.— American Stocks were declining. CODSOIS ninety-two and one-eighth. "STONEWALL" JACKSONS ESCATE. — Mrs. Leg gett, wife of Liut. A. Leggett of the Eighth N. Y. Cavairy, was left in Winchester, Va., during the late Rebel occupation of that place, her husband having retreated at short notice with his regiment. She has since returned to Rochester,after having enjoyed several day's intercourse with the rebel chiefs, and she says Jackson's force cannot have fallen below 40, 000 men. It was all day passing through Winchester on its retreat, wheu it had every reason (or economizing .time. It was this ar my that Gen. Fremtnt, with less than 25,900 men, fought at Cross-Keys, holding his ground firmly, though the rebels were very strongly posted; it was this army which Geu. Fremont advauced next morning iu battle array, but it had stolen away during the night. " Stone wall" Jackson is one of the best officers in the Rebel service ; we do not say he was beaten at Cross-Keys, but he certainly won no victo ry, and he wovld have been caught between Fremout and Shields next day, but for the Mistake of Col. Carroll in not burning the Port Republic bridge. That mistake has prob ably cost the Union cause 1,000 men—Shield's advance being crushed by the whole weight of Jackson's army and pushed back down the river, while " Stonewall" made his escape over i the Blue Ridge. He rushed down the Valley ! very rapidly, but he has been run out of it ai j full speed. His great strenghth and intimate i knowledge of tiie county have saved birn from capture or destruction. ILLINOIS REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE TREASURY NOTES AS LEGAL TENDER. —The Supreme Couit of Illinois has decided a case brought before it by the Slate Tuoeurer as to the forte of the act of Congress making Treasury Dotes ale gal tender. The court has decided that the State law requiring gold and silver in the payment of deOts to the State is as obligatory as every and that the act of Congress does not impair its force. Therefore the Stale taxes must be paid in go d and silver. The act of Congress does not, in the view of the Supreme Court, overrule the law of the State. THE REBEL GENERAL BEN HUGER IN TROUBLE. —The C. S. A. War Department accuses Major General Benjamin Huger of arrogating powers to himsell which do not be long to him, and of misconstruing and violat ing orders concerning the exchange of prison era Huger is said to have stood in the waj of the prompt release of Colonels Corcoran, Wilcox and Bowmau. He has been ordered to take the field for active service, and is now in command of what is called a division of rebel troops at Port Walthall Jnnctiou, on the line of the Richmond and Petersburg railroad, betwecu those two cities. 111 IB M THE union. ANOTHER GREAT BATTLE Gen. Shield's Advance Attacked by Jackson. SEVERE LOSS ON BOTH SIDES. THE BATTLE OF CROSS KEYS. The Rebels tyriven from their Position. —Sfc WASHINGTON, Wednesday, June 11. Advices received at the Wur Department state that Jaekson'a army attacked General Shield's advance on Mauday morning near Port Republic. The conflict is said to have been maintained for lour hours by aboat two thousand of our men against the main body of Gen. Jackson's army. The enemy's force lie came so overwhelming in numbers that our advance was compelled to fall back, which it did in good order until it met the main body of Gen. Shield's command near Conrad's store. As soon as this was effected the enemy in turn retired. The fighting is said to have been very severe, and the loss heavy oil both sides. No further particulars have reached the Depart ment. A private letter states that Gen. Shields had previously succeeded in destroying a large quantity of supplies belonging to the rebels, found at Mil ford and at Conrad's store. The damage of the recent rains, including the carrying away of bridges the south branch of iho Shenaodoah River, material y interfered w itli the Commissariat arrangements 1 and the movements of troops. LCKAY. Tuesday. June 10, ) via WASHINGTON, Wednesday, June 11. } Col. Carroll, commanding the Fourth Brig ade, consisting of the Eighty Fourth Pennsyl . vama, Eleventh Pennsylvania, the Sev.nth Indiana, and First Virginia, altogether about one tliousaid six hundred strong, reached Port | Republic on Sunday, reconnoitred, found the enemy in town, and had a skirmish. lie con ■ eluded to hold the bridge, and ordered it not to be burned, and put guns in position com inaiiding it. At 0 A. M , Monday, he was opened on by some twenty heavy guns placed in position during the night. Our forces tried to reach the bridge, repeatedlv, to destroy it, but were met by storms of bullets and had to retire. A large cavalry force crossed and at tacked our troops, while their i fantrv follow ed, our men opposing them at every step, often driving them back with heavy loss; but the uumbers, after Gen. Tyler's Brigade airived, were so much inferior to the enemy—theirs being at least five to one—that it was iuipos sible to hold our position, and we were coin pelled to fall back, our boys fighting every foot of the way. Afier falling buck some three or four miles, a body of cavalry was sent to at tack ns, nnt they were received in such man- ! ner as to compel them to retire, when the en- , gagement ended, having lusted five hours.— Our loss in killed and wonnded is not known ; bur it is large, as is also that of the enemy. We lost a large number of prisoners. Col. Can-til's horse feli, injuring the Colo- j nel badly. Capt. Roily, of Gen. Shields' Staff, was j badly injured in the head. He received praise from all who saw him fighting. Col. Buckley, of tlie Twenty-Ninth Ohio, was badly wounded. His men charged three times to get his body, but it was ca;ried off by the enemy. Gen. Ashby, of cavalry notoriety, was posi- ' tively killed during tne fight at the bridge over ! Middle Ilivtr. Capt. Keogh charged with a body of caval ry, and held the bridge some time during a j perfect storm of grape. This was one of the most hotly contested ! engagements of the wnole war, as indicated by ! the loss compared with the numbers engaged. 1 The men fought like demons. FRONT ROYAL, Jum 15-, JS(J2. The resnlts of the battle of Port Republic, on Monday lust, between a portion of Shields' division and Jackson's army are now ascer tained, as near us can be. The names already given are known to be among the killed and wounded, although many classed among the missing ure no doubt badly injured ; but our troops, I eing compelled to retire before u foe so superior in numbers and in all other respects, : except bravery, many were necessarily left on the field, whose names coaid not be ascertain- : ed. CM the large numbers classed as missing, ! many wiil, doubtless, find their way back to j their regiments. The lorce engaged was mostly composed of Western men, who did their duly nobly, .s is evidenced by their fighting a toe more than five times their number for five hours, arid then retreating in order, exepting one or two reg iments which were completely surrounded and compelled to take to the mountains, many of whom maue their way back to the division.— The Sevcuth Indiana regiment did noble duly, holdiug their position on the right for lour hours against a vastly superior force, Colonel Gavin repeatedly charging and driving the enemy like sheep. They left Fredericksburg j eight hundred strong, and arrived at Port Re public with only three hundred, the remainder being left along the ronte, sick ar.d disabled, aid after the fight they mustered about one hundrid and forty, losing more than half their force. The Twenty-Ninth and Sixty Sixth Ohio regiments aUo lost heavily, as may be seen by the list of casualties. The three batteries of artillery Clark's.Robinson's and II un ting ton's —are entitled to great praise for the gallant part they took in the action Had the First and Second brigades been enabled to reach the scene of action, an entire ly different result would uudoubtly have ensued. Alter Monday's fight, it is understood, Jack son took the road toward Skanurdsville, pass ing through the gup ot the Blue Ridge Moun tains, in a line for Gordonsville, at which point is railroad communication with Richmond. THE BATTLE OF CROSS KEYS. (Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.) I'OKT REPUBLIC, Va., June 9,1862. We have had stirring times iu this depart ment. Jacksou took his trains over the river here on Friday and returned and gave us bat tle yesterday, five miles from this place, on the Harrisonburg road. Tbe battle for two hoars raged fiercely.— Scheuck had the right, Milroy the centre and tbe Blencker division tbe left. Sebexick was not assailed except by ikino ishing fighting. Milroy was in the hottest of the fight and drove the enemy back from point to point. The first brigade of the Blencker division, under Ge. Stahel, fought well and held the enemy back for some two hours, snf fering a great loss from a destructive fire from the enemy. The left wing finally gave way, and our whole line was ordered back half a mile to a more favorable position. The enemy did not advance, but commenced a retreat, as we learn here, previous toour falling back, and by ten o'clock this morning their whole army had crossed the river and set fire to the bridge. We pursued,but not in time to save the bridge Surgeon Cantwell, of the Eighty Second Ohio, was wounded, not dangerously. Capt. Chas. Worth was mortally wounded. The Seventy Third Ohio lost four killed and three wounded ; the Third Virginia, four kill ed and thirteen wounded ; the Fifth Virginia, three killed and seventeen wounded ; the Twenty-Fifth Ohio, six killed and sixty-eight wounded ; the Sixtieth Ohio, four killed and eleven wounded. Slahel's brigade lost, in kil led, wounded and missing, four hundred and five privates and twenty two officers. Several Colonels and Captains were wounded and one Captain killed in the Blencker division. Boh lens brigade fost ten killed and seventy wound ed. The Bucktuils lost one killed on] ten wounded. Our total loss will be from one hundred to one hundred and fifty killed, and from four hundred to five hundred killed and wounded. The enemy's loss was very heavy. Four hundred of their dead, by actual count, were found nnburied on one field. From the nuai bers of their dead scattered in other parts of ihe battle gronnd, it is believed that there are two hundred more of their dead on the field making their loss in killed six hundred, besides ; officers, who were carried aw-ay. Gen. Slew i art was killed, Gen. Elsie wounded, Colonel Hunghton mortally wounded, and Gen. Jaek j son wourded in t he wrist. CoI. S. S. Carroll, of Ohio, with two regi meuts of Shields' division, reached the oppo j site side of the river from here yesterday morn ; ing, and attempted to hold the bridge, bat was driven back by Jackson. He opened with his j artillery this morning on th • bridge, as the rebel army were crossing, but was diiven back i by the superior force of Jackson, uud retreut- I ed down the liver. The Floods in the Coal Region. The coal business ha< never received so seri ous a blow since it assumed the present pro portions in trade, as by the recent (lood in Pennsylvania. The more striking particulars of this disaster are known to our readers. The I rain began as early as a week ago last Sunday in some sections, but the flood occurred on Tuesday and Wednesday, the waters of the Lehigh, Schuylkill und other rivers lising to a i hight totully unprecedented, and carrying away bridges, dwellings, boats, locks, and even groves ot trees, with a great loss of human life. The last and most important item is yet : very uncertain. It is estimated that two hun dred boatmen were drowued on the Lehigh, : with many women and children. From the vast mass of debris, consisting of timber, trees, ; broken dwellings, fragments of bridges, boats, and what not, swept down the river and col j lected in the grove of the Female School at ! Bethlehem, Pa , no less than thirteen bodies j have been taken out up to the present time. Our present purpose,however, is not so much with this sad record as to state, more accu rutely than has been hitherto done, the dam age to the coal interests, and the etiteut to which th.it trade wili probably be interrupted. The lir.-t to be mentioned, and the faithesi South, is the Cumberland bituminous rcigion. Two avenues bring tile coal from these mines to market through Virginia and Maryland the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, from Cum' er land to Georgetown, and Ihe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, from Cumberland to Baltimore The business here has been much interrupted by military movements ; the lines having been, at intervals, iu the hands of the rebels, in consequence of this, the supply of bituminous and SCUM bituminous coal had already heeii greatly diminished. But the Harper's Ferry bridge, which had been saved from the de struclive hands of the rebels by great efforts, yielded to the flood, and the transportation of Coal is still further delayed. On the whole, however, though considei able damage is done to the mines and to the canal and railroads, the prospect Is thai the canal will be in run ning order in about ten or twelve days, aud the road, within three or foot weeks. Coming north, and entering the Anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania, we find that every avenue, with scarcely a single or unimportant exception, is at least tempnraril) closed. The principal outlets are the Schuylkill Canal, the Heading Railroad, the Lrlngli Canal, the Lackawanna and Western Railroad, and the Delaware and Hudson Canal. The Schuylkill Canal will he repaired within three weeks, and the Reading Road is scarcely damaged, but will he delayed by the repairs necessary on the lateral roads, which are its feeders. Of lateral roads, the Mine Hill and Mill Creek are the principal, and they will not he ready under two weeks The Lackawanna Road will need between one and two weeks, and the Delaware and Hudson Canal from four to six weeks.— The principal damage on the former is at I'ort Jervis, the Lackawack Aqueduct, and the Rock Lock The latter is entirely swept away. The Lehigh Canal is the great sufferer.— This Company's work is an improvement of the Lehigh River, over which by their charter ilny nave exclusive control. The Lehigh ia fed Iroiu the mountains, and is liable to fresh eis of the inoat rapid and violent character,— Two great floods—one in 1841, and the other iu 1860 had induced the Company to hudi their locks, embankments, and bridges in the most substantial manner, and it was hoped that they might defy the elements. But the present treshet has surpassed in violence any before known, and has fairly cleaned out the canal, locks, bridges, and all, particularly above Mauch Chunk There is little hope that it will be ready for use in its whole length ' this season. Indeed, it is believed that the upper part towurd White Haven, will not be reconstructed, but a railroad built instead.— The sole reliance for Lehisrl. coal now remain ing is the Lehigh Valley Railroad.from Mauch Chunk, near which placo the most important mines are situated, to Euslon. This road will not be ready to transport coal iu less than three weeks, though the Beaver Mendow (a 1 lateral road, joining the Lehigh Valley at Mauch Chunk, and upon which its business mainly depends) will be much longer delayed. The proportions of coal carried by the Le high Canal and Railroad were as follows last year : The Canal, 994 705 tuns ; the Rail road, 743.672 tuns. Tins coal is thought to have no adequate substitute for furnace and foundery purposes, and the cessatiou of ship ment by the canal wili, of coorse, tend to ad vance the price enormously. The total pro duction of the Pennsylvania anthracite fields last year was 7,775,000 tuns. The deficit this year cuimot fali much short of 800,000 tuns. It is impossible, of course, to estimate, even with proximate accuracy, the amount of the damage The loss of boats, although very great, is perhaps the least item. A large quantity of coal, in transit ch (he Lehigh, probably 10,000 tuns, was lost. The damage along the line, irrespective of that to the canal, is very great. The canal itself must be almost reconstructed ; and it is probable that the large surplus which this remarkably pru dent company had accumulated (about one million two hundred thousand dollars) wdl have to le entiely expended in repairing its losses. It is almost childish to express an opinion; lint when the damage on all the lims is considered, both of public and private prop erty, it can scarcely be reckoned at less than $5,000,000. Among other losses, may be mentioned the total destruction of the town of YVelaspoft, in which three hundred houses were swept away—a disaster wholly unexampled in this country ; and yet only one of the many items of this cumulative calamity.— JY. York Tribune. Incidents of the War, A correspondent writing from Memphis, describing the great naval engagement, gives the following incidents, which shows so „e of the horrors of war:— " While ab this was going on, our gunboats j were getting up speed head down the river. | The Benton, being on the left of our line of gunboats, became the antagonist of the Gen Lovelf, on the right of the second line of rebel boats. Capt. Phelps,one of the most tfficivot artillerists in the service, ran his eyes along the sights of one of the fifty pound rifled guns at the Benton's bow, waited until the Lovell swung into the position which would give him a raking shot, and pulled the lanyard.— The shot struck just below the water line and ripped np the planks. The water poured in with a rush, and in three minutes the vessel was lying iu seventy five feet of water. A ship going down in an instant with all on j board, is a terrible scene—one calculated to < appall the stoutest heart. The current of the ! river at Memphit sets close to the Tennessee I side and rushes by like a strongman in a race The pluroet gives from seventy five to oric hundred feet of water. The Lovell beiug in the middle of the current took the girgling, whirling waters through her torn sides Down, down, down—she settled like a lump of lead. Her crew became terror stricken.— They rushed hither and thither, bereft of rea son. One poor fellow with his left arm torn by a cannon shot, with unspeakable horror in his countenance, was seen beckoning now to those on shore and to those on the gunboats, and now looking up to heaven to the Great Father of us ail, for help ! Unavailing the try. A moirent later, and the boat with a lurch gave way beneath his feet,and drew him down iu the eddying whirlpool. A wail of agony went up from the water and from the land. Fifty human beings were buffeting the current, grasping at sticks and straws and pieces of the boat, anu such mova ble tilings as-floated by them. " Help ! help ! help !" was the cry which rose upon the aT, and reached the ! the kind in u.-e ; a targe stock i oi these ju>tly celebrated jars, at much less than the us | ucl price, at FOX'S.
