RTTMOBED SAID INTO PENNSYLVANIA.
New York, Feb. 2.— Tbe Tribune has the
following special despatch:
Harrisburg"; Feb. I.—A report prevails here
to-night that Imboden crossed the Potomac
near , Sir. John’s Run,j below Hancock three
Hiilesr' He will aim at Cliambersburg and the
(Cumberland Yklley, and will reach Harrisburg,
if possible; Imboden is daring and persever
ing. He has no artillery or infantry with him
except two sections of a 6-pound battery . There
is no adequate force to pursue or intercept him.
The 20th and 21st Pennsylvania L Cavalry have
Just been’(discharged from the service. Gen.
Sullivan’iS force is inadequate to pursue him suc
cessfully.
Governor Gurtin is at Bellefonte.'
’ • 1 THE REPORT DENIED.
( Harrisburg, Feb.j2.—The authorities here
have no official knowledge of the reported in
vasion by Imboden’s cavalry, and seem to think
that the statement is premature.
ANOTHER AND OFFICIAL DENIAL^
The following despatch has been received
from the State Treasurer, in reply to one in
quiring as to the trnth of the report of a rebel
raid into-Pennsylvania:
’“Harrisburg, Feb. 2. —The Governor has
received no such information. General Couch
would.havqveported it, if true.
(Signed) <‘W. V. McGrath.”
L • STILL ANOTHER DENIAL.
| (By the People’s Line ot Telegraph.)
Baltimore, Feb. 2d.—News of a character
vrorth telegraphing is . scarce here to-day. It
may be proper to contradict some rumors to
the effect that therebel Imboden had crossed
the Potomac with a heavy cavalry'force, and
was preparing to make a laid into Pennsyl
vania. The whole thing is a gold speculation
canard. •
All is quiet in 'Western Maryland and along
the Potomac. Our troops are vigilant every
where on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the
trains on which run regularly.

FROM BALTIMORE.
[By the People 1 ® Telegraph Line.]
Baltimore, Feb. 2.-=The train which left
Philadelphia, due here at six o’clock this morn
ing, has not yet (11 A.M.) arrived. Some
freight cars ran of the track, causing the de
tention. "■ -
An accident on the Northern Central Rail
way to a cattle train .killed several of the ani
mals and seriously damaged two locomotives.
The passenger trains were in consequencG de
tained, -
Hgnry M., Warfield is now in Baltimore.
He makes no regarding his late
visit to Richmond, keeping perfectly silent as
to what he saw and heard. It is thought that
if even his mission was to secure ah exchange
of Senator White, of the Pennsylvania Senate,
he failed of success. My own opinion is that
he has a less favorable impression of Dixie than,
he had some years ago. ..
The "cars and mails are regularly in from
Washington. ; ! . ; ■ !
The Chronicle and other papers of to-day at e
without news of moment. There is scarcely an
item worth telegraphing. r
There is a goodly number of his friends here
who are of opinion that Col. Eisb, late Provost
Marshal, will come out of the ordeal, into which
he has been plunged, unscathed.
The despatches received here yesterdayfrom
some comical individual in Washington about
the South being wilßng to lay down their arms
.and negotiate a peace, if President Lincoln
would agree to pardon their leaders, .Was a
mere canard.
We have cloudy weather and indications of
more rain.

THE REBEL CONDUCT OF THE (WAR IN
FUTURE.
[From the Richmond Examiner, Jan. 28. ]
The time has passed for offensive military
operations on the part 'of Southern armies.
Beyond recovering lest portions of territory,
the true policy now is to risk nothing. At firsts
before Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri were
lost, we might have gained much by taking
Washington and penetrating to the centre of the
enemy’s power. But we then threw ourselves
on the defensive, allowed our soil to be in
vaded, consented that our own, supplies should
subsist the troops of both belligerents, and suf
fered the extensive belt between the two hostile
nations, whieb TO desolated by tho contending
tHI iJAiJLY jB'VTISNiNG ,BU IdLßTjla : . HIA, jUKSDAY, FEdEUAKY 2. 1864.
forces, to be taken frorji our own territory., Our
means ol'subsistence have now been too far ex--
hausted to admit any other than defensive
tactics. We must stand behind the wide belt
of land which war has devastated, and put our
enemy to the hazard and the cost of crossing
thatwildemess of destitution. We may recover
Tennessee and Arkansas, we may carry our
lines to the. banks of the Potomac, we may
prevent the navigation of the Mississippi by
the constant presence, ‘at certain points, of
movable batteries ot artillery; but in these, and.
in all onr military enterprise's and operations,
we must observe the wary tactics ot Fabins,
and win the battle by risking nothing. ._
Hereafter our strength will consist in onr
very' poverty. Our country'is too sparsely
inhabited, too scarcely supplied with food and
forage, to be successfully invaded for an indefi
nite period. The war will last as long as the
North can maintain a muster-roll strength of
three-quarters of a million, and support an army
of four hundred thousand men at a distance of
several hundred miles from its basis of
.subsistence. Tt has become with us now a sim
ple question of endurance. We can husband
our resources; we can maintain onr armies at
a standard of strength apportioned to the pro
ductive capacities of the country; when out
numbered, we- can weary the enemy and waste
his strength by artful manoeuvres, attacking
him in detail and destroying him by piece-
but if we undertake more, we risk all.
Our territory's still of vast dimensions, and
presents nowhere any largo accumulations of
supplies. In' the compact States' of Eu
rope, where every foot of the soil is brought
into requisition, where agriculture is at
the maximum, where every acre groans with
redundant crops, invasion*by large armies
is comparatively not only practicable,
but profitable and self-sustaining. There,
armies move over great distances with
out the appendage of leagues of wagon trains,
drawing their food along for hundreds of miles
behind them. Bnt the case is very different on
this continent. A striking exemplification of
the fact is witnessed in the case "of East Ten
nessee, where the Federal armies are now com
pelled to retreat from sheer want of supplies.
Yet that country is emphatically the granary
of the South. The traveler will .see on
the roadside, from Bristol to - Chattanooga,
in the month of June, more wheat, than if he
continues bis journey on to Vicksburg, then
travels by the Southern route back all the way
to Richmond, then up the famed James river
valley, and through Southwest Virginia to Bris
tol again. The enemy have occupied East.
Tennessee only four or five months. They en
tered in August; just after an unusually abun
dant harvest of all crops had ■ been se
cured, rendered greater by the extraor
dinary exertions of the inhabitants, put forth
under the invitation of Mr. Davis’s corn-plant
ing proclamation of last spring. Just after
the heaviest crop ever raised in that produc
tive grain country had' matured, our forces
were called out of it by Bragg, and the enemy
invited to enter and enjoy. Yet they are now
forced to.evacuate a large portion of the most
productive meat and com country in the Con
federacy, from sheer want of supplies.
The fact proves that no portion of our terri
tory will long support the presence of anarmy.
It proves that, in order to our subjugation, the
N orth must transport several hundred thou
sand troops over distances of hundreds of
miles, and support them at those long dis
tances—with supplies brought from home.
With the South, the duration of the war is sim
ply a question of a continued supply of food for
people and army; With the N orth its duration is a
question of enlistment and finance—a question
of recruiting a muster-roll strength of at least
three-quarters of a million of men for their
armies, and of maintaining a system of finance
taxed with the cost of transporting four or five
hundred thousand troops and their subsistence
over distances of many hundreds of miles.
fr The South can hold out indefinitely, even
after all this waste and- extravagance, if only
at the eleventh hour, sho does not.go mad.
The Richmond Congress can bring her to .sub
jugation in six months more, by conscripting
her present producing classes' and thrusting
them into an unclad and unfed army.
The great want is more food and
clothing —a want which cannot
be supplied by multiplying mouths, backs and
feet, at the expense of the producers of pro
visions and covering. The first duty of Gov
ernment is to provide these supples; and if
they cannot be provided except by weakening
the army, the alternative must be adopted of
resisting with smaller armies, using the tactics
of Fabius and the strategy of defence.
Young Lady Shot. — Miss Francos Price was
shot by a Miss Evans, on Deil’s Island, on
Wednesday evening, whilst returning from
church. From what we could learn, the affair
seems to he a mystery.— Somerset(Md.) Herald.
