DESIGNED RESULTS. OF THE INVASION:
The rebels being entirely in, the dark as , to tlie two.
jected movements of the Army the ?otoinse, recently ,
determihed to make a series of .brilliant reconnoissatweg
on .the north bank \ of, the Potomic river,,of tiome of
which we may now try to write the history..
The rebels always make these movementspay accord
ing to the rialto undertaken. They conseettentlylook for
many edvantages in making.these .g raids" rather than
a single One ,
The mistake of the Union'generals in reconnoitring has
been that they seek information :et the enemy's position
and force, and do: not attempt to,injare him seriondy.
The- rebels, on the - other hand, get all the valuable in
fennation necessary, enure -all the plunder, and do all
the damage they can, beeides Wails g Wand - holding a line
of retreat, as also possessing theniseives of imbortant
strategical points. C' .
THE STARTING POINT.
General Lee desired to knots certainly the exact po=
sition held by the ,6 MY of the Potomac In Nitryland,
and whether it was the intention of hicalellan to move
with celerity and vigor upon him at Winchester, Scatter.:
ing his fres 'fluttery and disorganized army, or *tether
the Union forces were to settle down 'upon the north
bank of the Potomac for the winter..
GENERAL EITZRUGR 'LEE AT WORK.
If the former were to be the case, Generid•Lee 'and his
army must retreat to Gordoosyille; if the latter, he would
remain comfortably enough during the winter in North
ern Virginia. So General Plishrigh Lee, of the rebel
army, with Ashby's old brigade of EiteWart,e' Light Di
vision, wasordered to patrol the line of 'the Potonia:e'river
from a point some miles above Hancock down to'the
sition of IllcOltlian's richt wing.
A FORD SELECTED.
It did cot take the crafty rebel leader long to see that
there was a dietitians , of twenty mites of the north bank
of the river front entirely unguarded, and from the re
ports given by his scouts and spies he learned that the
Pennsylvania militia had all been withdrawn and sent
home, and that her border towns were all unprotected
and at their UlErcy.
Gen. Lee was beard to say by a citizen of Morcereburg
- that be•was really loth to believe these retorts given
by idsejsfere, and when they came in with circumstantial
proofs he was really astonished to think that any people
would allow themselves to be "gulled', like these citi
zens of the good old "Keystone 'Oommonwealth " had
been by the machinations of malevolent politicians,
With a full understanding of these facts,-Genertil Leo
determined to ford the Potomac, and did ao, at a point
just above and nearly opposite the town of -Hancock,
' Md., en the night of Thursday, the 9th of October. A
brigade of cavalry, composed of two regimentiftwo bat
teries of light artillery, and a regiment of infantry, cross.
ed over. "Tbe'infantry remained at the fording place
with a Section of artillery, while the rebel cavalry, under
Lee, advanced towards Hancock by the river road, and
..bi-ssuuzaths..ontiL,within eight of that place, where
they posted their pickets and bivouacked for the night.
The little town of iltas-4-1 , -an_a u x ptey - arrn • •
rrs/mlNgr, -- arad the village , mOinte,•eistera,
and sweethearts could only ., console themselves seith the
thOught that'thotigh their hearths ware deeolate and
their womanhood, patriotism, and love outraged, their
sone, brothers, and lovers bad all. manfully enlleted in
- the Union army, and there- waa nothing left by the Go
vernment for defence but old mon and shotguns, and no
military leaders to marshal and encourage them, -
CROSSING TEE LINE.
But now to fulfil that oft repeated threat of Northern
invasion, Fitzhugh glee set out to' do it or to die.. Gat
lopirg over the border, scarcely stopping for anything
except to get some freah milk, some smearcase, or a kiss
from a pretty Pennsylvania farmer `girl er dairymaid
who rbong i bt they were all. "Union," Lee galloped on
with his troopers to hiercersburg, and here scenes were
enacted which we . .pray God May never fail•to the lot of
American women again. ,
'lwo hundred of their relatives and proteotors had been
lying here 14 Camp Curtin," without• either arms or
equipments, and now these women wells being vio
lated at least in principle, if not sensually, by voluptuous',
lustful traitors, those brave Union eoldiera 'were power
less to defend in the smallest way their own homes.
The rebels are said to have entered stores and private
residences,.feeding and clothing themselves in the pre
sent° of ladies!, throwing off their filthy, lousy garments,
and 'standing in a state of semi-nudity before them while
putting better things on, , and finally, to add insult to In
jury, offered these wome n of ours their grassy, worthless
Confederate scrip in payment for what they had taken . ..
TUE. REBELS MEET 001,. PLUCK.
It is said hero that a small band cf true Pennsylvania
patriots lay in ambush on Friday night, on the mall road
between Mercereburg aid Ohambersbarg, and when a
portion of the rebel cavalry came by, on the advance to
' the latter city, these gallant fellows gave them a warm
rent ption from ehot•guns and gaining-rifles, emptying a
numbel of saddles. When the rebels saw this they made
a gallant charge with a squadron, and succeeded In cap
turing one man, whom they dragged away, taunting him
and calling him a "D—d Pennsylvania Dutchman."
These noble men were used to the woods and ravines,
• aid being scattered about as skirmishers it is not thought
that many of them were injured.
TIIE ADVANCE • UPON CHAMBERSBURCI.
7he rebel cavalry, about I,Boostrong, advanced by two
routes upon Cliambereburg, fully aware that the whole
proceedtog was a safe one. When within about four
sidles of the city •Oen. Lee halted hie forces, drew them
up into line of battle, and sent Lieutenants alli;tal Har
rison, of his staff, beating a deg of truce, within eight of
the city. Col. A. K. itcOlure and United States Marshal
Bllmsnell were deputized by some of the leading citizens
to wait upon the rebel officers and surrender the town,
'provided that the rebels promised to pay due respect to
',mete property. To this request the rebels acceded
without the least reluctance. Cot. McClure and MC.
atitemell returned to the city at one?, and after. sending
.the • telegraph operator to a point near Shippetusburg,
a pp r i se d the populace of what they had done. Notwith
standing the good promises made by the rebel officers,
they took ten aorses belonging to Col. filcOlure without
.00 much as tendering him a thankee," and other well
known citizens of the town and surrounding country suf
fered in a ilmilsr way.
THE REBELS GET MONEY.
At Diercersbnrg, Chambersbnrg, Hancock, and Bt.
Tbomas, the rebels obtained in various mean ways, and
by rotrting to many , tricks, about $2,900 in specie, and
over $lO,OOO in Government and local funds..
OTHER CAPTURES.
The rebels have secured by this reoonnolastome some
Seven hundred pretty good horses, as many fine cattle,
a large Quantity of grain carted back by Secessionist, of
Maryland, and a vast amount of clothing and shoes, of
which they are sadly in need.
TRYING THEM ON.
At Ohambereburg the rebels obtained 'a rich prize
r; all in a lump;' it was nothing lees than a number of
large,boxes containlog nearly six thousandlnlts of uni
forms inter ded for our troops in that vicinity, who, when
the trouble came, had been mysteriously ordered off, and
hence DoC.BlcOlure telegraphed that nothing could be
done but surrender the atty. Bat the joke of this was that
the boxes were hastily opened, and in a short time there
stood over a thousand veteran soldiers all In blue and
new," who but a moment before presented the appear
ance of dark earthenware models of humanity. I thought

in 'Northern Virginia. Rebel officers were heard to
say to ore another in Uhambersimrg, yesterday, that this

GRAERAL STUART'S POSITION.
General J. E. B. Stewart, who, it Is said, atoompantee

State, is Chief of Cavalry in General Robert E. Leo'a

When General. Hanipten left the town of Chambers

that be intended to intive - direct/y on Hanover Junction,
on the Bortliepillieritiial Railroad, and thence to move to
Baltimore or Efirri;bnig, as be thought most profitable
but this is believed to have been a ruse, as the move
ments of the rebels indicate aiw intention of getting out of
Pennsylvania as soon as possible. From what I know of
recent military movements, I do not think these gypsies
or band its will get back. McClellan bai sent strong
forces to Hagerstown, Greencastle, Frederick, anti along
the line of the Bonham Central Railroad. The Gdvernor
has a large force in the Cumberland Valley. The Pitts
burg Turnpike is guarded at Cove Mountain. Gap; and
McClellan bee taken powerful possession of the fords
about Hanocck. He has also itwo brigades of cavalry
alter the rebels. All of this work has been done since
Saturday morning.
RETURN OF GENERAL, WOOL.
General Wool i storied to Baltimore last night, .
ponied by bin staff.
STATEMENT OF A PRISONER.
I - baie bad a brief conversation at Oarlisle with a rebel'
prisoner, who was captured by the citizens of Franklin
county, and is now on his way to Fort Delaware. He
pays he does net think that General Stuart is in Peruz-'
ahead*, but that the command cf the expedition de
volves upon General Hampton, of South Carolina, by
seniority of. rank. He is accompanied by several South
ern •officers of distinction of the rebel army, including .
several Poles and Pruselace. He says that the invading
force at present consists of about eighteen hundred ca
valry and a battery of twelve light guns. The rebels
gave their worn-out artillery horses to , our farmers in
exchange for their fine draught hot see.
THE REBEL RETREAT.
The rebels moved off from Ohambersharg on the Ha
gennown pike. My informant thinks ther will not go
to Fildorick or Hagerstown, but that Hampton will take
Waynesboro and Greencutle, and, passing through Mer
cerebnrg to secure the paaiage of the captured etorea,
will move directly to Hancock. This is about the only
feasible plan of of cape for them, it seems to me, and I do
not think this route will be left entirely open to them.
A SOUTHERN MAIL.
Wade Hampton's South Oarolina Legion was the last
to leave Frederick, and it is said that he brings a mail
bag with him, the conteats of which will soon be known
and possessed by the fair traltoreasm of Baltimore.
As the mail ie closing I can send YOU no further parti
colare by , mail et present. The above statements comprise
all the news and facts that I have been able to gather at
Shippensburg, Carlisle, and Harrisburg, together with
reports of persons who have arrived from Charaberaburg.
I may send additional items by telegraph, if anything
further should transpire.
The Governor and General Wool are both hopeful, and
think that the capture of the "rebel "alders" is almost
certain. SPE UAL.

—Gotoiler 3, 1862.
glace leaving our encampment at Frankford, Phila
delphia, we have had our full share of duty, although
not participating In any of the battles. Our principal
beelinee seems to be picketing. We have not, however,
.bad any very arduous duty in that capacity as yet; but
to new recruits the small share we have had seems quite
bard.
We are in Robinson's Brigade, which is composed of
the 63d, 105th, 1414, 114th, 68th Pennsylvania, and 20th
Indiana Regiments, all of which are becoming very
proficient in drill. General Robinson Is a thorough sot.
.flier, a strict disciplinarian, and enforces his commands
more by example than precept, which should stimulate
any soldier to do his duty.
On Wednesday we ban a review of the division (Gen.
Birney) of Reintzelman's corps d'armbe. There were
about 15,000 troops on review, and from my limited oto—
portnnity of witnessing the proceedings, our men almost
eclipsed some of the old regimente. About nine o'clock
the same night we had orders to be ready for picket again
the next morning, which order was obeyed with alacrity
by both officers and men. At seven o'clook we moved to
our destination, not leaving a man in camp fit for duty
except the guard.
Quite a little incident incurred while on post. Lieut.
Colonel Reynolds commanded the middle centre or rally
ing point of our regiment, and daring the afternoon our
wing had a visit from our old townsmen, Col. Heenan,
and Major Birdwell, of the 116th Regiment, who, after
partaking of the heapthelttleg of a soldier's rough life, de;

Rite of the river, and the enemy, as far as known, re

either awaiting an attack or bent upon retreating at the
'Levis of• our advance. This latter is merely a surmise of
many'. If. he purposes retreating without a fight, he
would naturally do so at once. I think public opinion,
at the South, constrains the rebel generals to remain
near the Potomac, until they are whipped away from it.

defend, and beading a blind rabble to overturn his Go- •

proved him wrongheaded.
There is food for, reflection in the enormous waste of
provisions by an army exceeding by far the consumption
of the Dame number of men at home. A contemplation
of the 'rations camping grounds vacated by irartudde'e

illustration. In all the camps the waste was more or less
great; but within my limited view, that of the 9th New
Hampshire Regiment was the greatest. There, in one
epot, I saw fresh moat enough to compose a good sized
calf, which' was not in the least spoiled ; several barrels
of salt beef and pork, and boxes of Crackers, which I
had not time to count. Many of these were open, and

These soldiers are all Germans. Why Germans almost
always prefer the artillery service, is a' question often
asked Oertainly they have a great tendency that way.
Perhaps it is because their heads are thick, and firing,
dote not trouble them, says an ill natured wit Not at

marching, and, as artillerists, they can ride on their
caissone, or. if. compelled to walk, can lay all theme
brauces upon them. Dat lah goof ! They very rarely
are reouired to appear on dress parade, and what picket
duty they perform 'is done in a comfortable way—taring
ha eoclable groups, or lying down, while the- infantry
pickets are pacing solitarily far beyond them, musket on

friends can often) to be joked upon. Several of our
clearest and ablest speakers in the last campaign were

LETTER FROM CINCINNATI.
[SpeolalOotreepondenoe of the Press!]
There is a forward Movement over the river towards
Centre' Kentucky, which took place, or rather began,
yesterday morning Things are carried on so secretly
and mysteriously that it is Ten - difficult to find out what
is going on. The military authorities in this section
seem determined that nothing shall be ,krown outside of
those interested. This is a _very necessary precaution,
and speaks well for those in *Power. Heretofore, a long
delay has always followed the prosecution of plans almost
publicly canvegeed ; at this stage of affairs, however, a
change has been made, and now the plane are canvassed
after they have been made and carried out. Tho mili
tary matters about Covington have been kept very quiet
ever IlinCe the great Louisville excitement, and people
have been led to believe that all, or nearly all, the force,
which was at one time massed at Covington, had been
sent to Louisville, and the force remaining was not worth
mentioning.. Such things have been known as a big
tire •
white thefe was not 'Much smoke, and It may
turn out so in this particular cue ; •at any rate,
the force is sufficiently large to satisfy a major
general in taking , charge of it. Major General
Granger has been in town for four or Ave days,
tatintiring about In citizen's. dress, and as he was
not much known here, no speculations were raised, bat I
had my eyes on him to Beewhat would be the result. I
knew he was not here for nothing, and. now the reealt
has became known; he has command of the troops which
are to act in the line of operations for Lexington, and
otooporate with Buell, to work the destruction of Smith
CO. No one would have supposed that anything was
in the wind, to have seen Gen.:Granger, night before last,
leaning against a pillar in the rotundo of the Burnett
Home, quietly smoking a cigar, without a single vestage
about him to denote that he was a military man. But he
looks every inch the soldier and the officer. He is a good.
sized square built man, dark complexioned, with black
whiskers and mustache and black hair; be has that easy
air of nonchalance, that speaks more plainly than words,
that he knows what he it about, that he understands his
own business, and means to attend to it. Well, the advance
has been made, and may imocees attend it. The progress
cannot be very rapid, for , the mon will have to march
thou& the road is a smooth, dry pike, and the distance
to Lexington is 95 miles. The bridges on the Kentucky
Central Railroad, which the rebels destroyed in tneir re
cent raid, have not yet been repaired, and it will be some
two weeks alter our troops takelposeession of the country,
before they can be reconstructed and the road put in
working order.
THE DRAFT.
The draft in this city has been 'carried on quietly from
first to last; no opposition was made to it, and no dbl. ,

having filled their quota by volunteer enlistments, and
all those which were not exempt have made liberal con.
tributions to the bounty fund for the benefit of thou)
drafted. The remit has been the Barrie all over the Mate
Bain the city, and there has been no grumbling, except
among the copperheads, who have adopted a platform
which means to find fault with everything, and be Biala.
fled with nothing. It was through their influence that
the row in Cie 'eland occurred. They circulated the re
port that the draft was not being conducted on the square,
and arousing the passions of the groat unwashed, they at
tempted to make a demonstration, which wee speedily
put under by the military from Camp Taylor, and, al
though a cannon was brought out, leaded, and Stationed on
the square, near the Perry monument, no damage was
done but a few'rwelled heads, produced by a model po
liceman, who with the weapon nature gave him, knocked
down some six or seven of the rioter!, before he could get
any reason into them. flubstautes are' cheap, and ere
not going to command the high prices many supposed
they could get, and for which they were holding off ;
too many at a trade always spoils it. Two hundred dol
lars is the highest prim I have heard of being paid, and
that was for a three years' volunteer, and I have known
of a nine months' volunteer being procured for $l2 Bo
the substitute speculation is going to tarn out a failure.

A Shorter Method with the Rebels
In the old feudal time.,when knights rode to battle
clad in iron mall, the shorest method with one of these
unwieldy warriors upon unprotected men .at arms was to
kill his horse. Down came the knight in a motionless
mass upon the ground, where he was left till, after the
battle, the triumphant man-at-arms—the modall of
those days—had leisure to creek him open. with a sledge
hammer. Oar Southern chivalry is but a relic of the
feudal times, and it can be dealt with in the same shorter
method. It is mounted upon the negro; dismount it,
and we lay it prone upon the ground at once, to be dealt
with at our leisure, without further waste of blood or
treasure.
The rebels have now been carrying on war for some
eighteen month., on what they stole from the United
States Government
. ; what they imported before and
within a few months after Fort Bumpier; what the great
slave-owners the aristocrats who plotted the rebellion,'
bed accumulated is the last few prosperous years, and
the proceeds of confiscations. There are signs to show
that they have now exhausted ail these stores. 0119 of
their chief agents in 'England, Mr. Pearson, hue failed,
and they were bound by,every interest to pay their bills
abroad, so long as they could pay any. There is reason
to believe that the rebel leaders have spent all they state,
and all they have been able to beg or to foroe from the
planters; they have impoverished this class by burning
or rendering useless its cotton and tobacco,
by taking tts
money as loans, and by destroying the value of other
property, such as bank stock, railroad stock, &a
The Confederates have spent enormous sums; the war
has coat them (or somebody), according to the best ac
counts, up to this time, not Tees than four hundred and
sixty. seven millions, of which at least four hundred
million dollars are represented by paper. Moreover,
they have destroyed in cotton burned or used in de
fences. in nevem shot or run away, and mother proper
ty; an amount equal in Wane, if not greater. than their
war expenses. They are impoverished ; and they grow
desperate in these last days, and venture upon the ha
zard of 'an invasive war, because they have but one re
source left to rapport this war, and that is imperilled it
they do not keep our armies out of their borders.
The rebel aristocracy have been ground to powder.
They cansot demand of the poor whites—whom
they have forced to fight—that they shall also
prbvide (cod and clothing. When they begin to take
the pig, or sheep, or ox of the poor white farmer for the
army, they will arouse an element of opposition fatal to
them. But they need not do that yet. . They have yet
their slaves—about three millions in number—as- ass of
which a greater proportion labors tkartamoug any other
people in the world, and which ts, therefore, at thie
time of double• importance to them. It is their only
resource. They have nettling else left; they live and
fight and maintain war only by the labor of these black.;

Daniel Dougherty at Pottsville.
From Mr. Dougbertyie recent speech at Pottsville w e
make the following extracts:
I am one of those, who, up to '67, blindly followed the
fortunes of the South—believed in their chivalry—helped
to light their battles. Their Infamous Lecompton policy
Buggered ni,) judgment, but at length the veil has been
torn aside, and I behold in all its hell. born hideourneis`
the accursed pions by which they have sought to ruts,
and then ruin the Republic.
Thousand}, and butattreds of thousands of our follow-.
count} men in the South, have been as amiently attached
to the Union as we are, but their leaders have sought to
educate the masses to regard the Union not as the palla
dium of thttr . politioal safeey and prosperity, but ea a more
convenience to be need to long us it promoted their sec
. tional alms, and then to be deemed to piece,. Their de
signs were known to the fathent Washington feared the
people of the South would bo misled, and waned them
in his prophttio address. The leaders claimed that their
love and allegiance were due to the butt), aid not to the
Nation. I love Pennsylvania—it is my native State—it
is my home but it le not my country. Nut Pennsylvania
alone, but tram the mountains of Maine to the southern
gull, from the Mhantic—even to the Paciticthis, oh
this le my native laud.

he did not hang John u. Calhoun. hlorida was purchased
to add to their domain. Texas, six times the size of New
York, was annexed to permit them to carve new stave
States. The South wanted . Texas and the Democracy of
the North yielded to her wishes. The Mexican war was

John Brown, but Captain Walser and the fliibuetere who
sought to take forcible possession of ao uuoireading na
tion and when even Bncaanan timidly stood by Captain
Paulding, bouthern statesmen ou the floor of the donate
denounced him as guilty of a higkehauded outrage Whea
a party in the North opposed the extension of slavery to
free territory, the South agreed to leave the question to
the decision of the people of theterritory. But when they
found they could not induce see people of * Kansas to
yield eubmissively, they; aye,
the ceivairy ! re.oved is
the most atrocious fraud that disgraced legislation,
the Lecomyton Constitution, and ordered their mis rable
tool to send the army there, to force the fraud on Kansas at
the month of the cannon. Palling in their efforts they tam
est around, denied the right of the people to legislate for
themselves, and proclaimed the doctrine, that the Con
stitution of the American Republic carried slavery into
free territory, and that the Central Government was'
bound tc foster and protect it. They willingly yielded
up a part of Oregon, but within two rears of the br,ak
leg out of the rebellion John Slidell introduced a bill to•
tate from the national treasury 5311,000.000 to practises
Cuba, so that she, too, might secede. Raving obtained
all they wanted, or at least all they could get, they re.
solved to break up the . Democratic party, that they might
destroy the Union, folthey knew that as long as the De
mocracy flourished the .Union would be preserved.
The legislatures of Alabatim, - and- other Sotithern
States, in 1857 passed resolutions that in the event of
the election of a Republican President they would ac
cede. When the National Convention of the Democrats
party assembled, and reaffirmed the faith of '543, these
traitors spat on the platform. When the true men of
the party, who, in despite of all the persecution, and
opprobrious instate of Buchanan's minions, remained
faithful to the organization, relying on the National' con.
