RECONNOISSANCE TO ROMNEY Rebelsßuild a Bridge at . Williamsport. Great ,Bestruetion :On,the:Baltimore and Ohlo Railroad. CSPCCIELI Despatch to-The Press. Passengers from Frederick last night report that the rebels were advancing from Boonsboro on that city, and that in consequence hundreds of people were leaving. One of the pickets informed a resi dent of Frederick that the rebel design was to enter Baltimore. Their entree, to this city will not be very easily effected. York avenue, Pennsylvania avenue, and other streets to the northeast and northwest are being barricaded, to prevent any pos.+ Bible approach. All last night laborers were at work forming abattis along the roads. Hogsheads of tobacco, old drays, and lumber of all descriptions, are thrown across the highways, and the work of defence progresses with celerity and steadiness. Official information has been received at head quarters that Cumberland has been reposeeised by our forcis, and that a reconnoissance sent out to Romney showed thal . no rebel forces were in that region. It was discovered that between Cumber land and Martinsburg, the country had been utterly laid waste, the railroad track entirely torn up, the bridges burned, abutments destroyed, and the rail road iron carried off by the vandals. The terminus by the Baltimore and Ohio road may now be said to be at Harper's Ferry.' The present position of the contending armies, as understood in official quarters, is this : Lee has pushed his army up so that the left wing rests in Maryland, and to get supplies he has invaded Penn sylvania; Lee is busily at work putting hie army in fighting trim and drawing for it ample supplies on the Pennsylvania border. General Hooker, in the meantime, has pushed his army up; so that the right wing meta on Poolesville. The advance into Mary land must be made, before the rebel army can give battle. With this view, no doubt, it was that the rebels have built the bridge, and it is said to be a very strong one, across the canal at. Williamsport; by this means their forces are enabled to plunder about the neighborhood and supply themselves for the coming campaign. D. [Special Correspondence of The Press.) The purposes and designs of General. Lee are gradually developing themselves, and we now begin to see what was and is our danger and the prospects 'er-.443eimixkdiate future. The invasion was no off epring orrelkl impulse, nor the result of a quickly formed delibetation. It bears the impress of along conceived desfp, and the effect of consultation and counting of dances and cost. Conscious"of increased weakness by a further delay of a few months, within which the Government would have fully equipped, for the field, a new army under the Conscription act, and eager to revenge the loss of chancellor. ville, as well as to inspire hope in anticipation of the fall of Vicksburg, the rebel:leaders have com menced an active campaign, which, while it satiates the clamors in the South for a forward movement, will yet, it is hoped, prove a boon to us. If the wished-for end can be secured with greater certainty and success on the soil of Maryland or Penney'. vania, even though it subject those States to tlib horrors 0£ Virginia battle fieiaer~vny shOlild - we not rather court the coming of the rebel hosts? Our fertile fields, may be laid waste, our horses carried off, and property .de stroyed;-our cities backed, the wheels of business stopped, and personalcomforts denied us. Harris-- burg, Greencaetle, Hagerstown, Pittsburg in posses sion of the enemies of the country! What of that, if those enemies are subsequently destroyed? Is the .property of the citizens of Pennsylvania morevalua ble than the lives of other of its citizens in Virginia? A hundred thousand-nobli Pennsylvanians have willingly offered themselves as sacrifices. What is there in, bricks and mortar that is more valuable? Instead of insisting against invasion when invasion brings death to the invaders, it should be invited to its own destruction. The rebel force marching un der the banner of Ewell-is too small to suppose that the rebels ever intended to make Pennsylvania a battle-ground. They must have mistaken the grit and spirit of our people, if -they had supposed they would not have been met by an impromptu army on our very borders. The hosts gathering-at -Harris burg are now fully competent for the emergency that called them into existence, and,the rebels dare not venture on so dangerous an experiment as its capture. Intelligent persons do not' credit the in vading rebels with a greater force, all told, than twenty thousand men. These are not march ' ing in single column, for they have ene mies to contend with on all sides. They are reported to be within a short distance of Harper's Ferry, at Point of Rocks, in the valley, at Win chester, at Boonsboro, at Williamsport, and at Ha 'gerstown. They are, therefor% extensively divided, though of course. ) in case of an extensive battle, they might be 'Summoned together. They would have Couch in their front, Tyler on their left, and General Schenck in reserve on their right. It is im possible to conceive of the movement in any other light than as a feint to deceive Hooker, and to coax him away from his own chosen ground to fight • again a battle of South Mountain, with an im possibility of attaining its success or brilliancy. Hooker is before Lee with a watchful eye, and ready to pounce upon him at the first favorable opportunity. He cannot be lured away by the false representation that the North is at the mercy of General Ewell. He has confidence in the spirit of the Pennsylvanians, and in their hands, in this par ticular emergency, he- is willing to leave a contest which ought to end, not solely in the defeat of the rebels on their borders, but their capture or utter destruction. The backward movement from Penn sylvania, on the part of the rebels, is a subject for regret more than rejoicing, for we sustain the dis grace of their tread upon our soil without our ad ministering a rebuke. The western part of Maryland will for many days be the scene of the most active Operations of the rebel& Awed by the preparations at Harrisburg, they have returned, and the people of Baltimore are becoming alive to the danger which now threatens their own city. Passengers from Frederick, this morning, report that rebel pickets-were seen last night within ten miles of the city. Boonsboro, which is a very short distance, was occupied last night, and the indications Were that Frederick would be in the hands of the - enemy to-day. There is nothing to prevent their progress to that place. The guard there ._was removed on Monday last, as it was too small to make any resistance, and their only service would be to be taken prisoners. The city is comparatively deserted. All the Union people of the town have removed to this city, bringing with them their effects. There is hardly a horse in the town, and none can be. procured to go in that direction for any price. The affection existing between rebels and horses is of the most intense and touching Character.' The secessionists of Frederick, and they are not scarce, are somewhat jubilant in the prospect of soon saluting their admirers. The rebel policy, is' said to be very "conciliatory." They seize nothing that they cannot_lay they hands on, and for every thing which their affection for Marylanders lead them to' appropriate in a spirit of brotherly kindnes they return the promises to pay of the "Confederate' government—a sufficient quid pro quo, by the way, to many of the victimized, whose actions hastened the embrace of the wayward brothers. The fight which occurred near Hancock, Mary land, by which the rebels were severely worsted, was creditable to the United States forces engaged. Col. Gallagher, of the 13th Pennsylvania Cavalry, distinguished himself on this oscasion, and hie gal lant regiment addedto its laurels. Up to this time it is ascertained, that Gen. Tyler is not only secure at Maryland Heights, but that no enemy is withing seeing distance. The passenger trains between this city and Fre derick resumed their regular trips yesterday, and are running today.

BALTIACOICE, Julie 21 BALTIMORE, June 20,1863 The Wheeling Intelligencer of Thursday contains an official despatch from General Kelly, and NeW Creek, 17th inst., one o'clock P. M., and addressed to Mr. J. B. Ford, agent of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at Wheeling. This despatch says: " That the Confederates had occupied Cumberland, and their advance was then at Itawline's Station, on the railroad line, midway between New Creek and Cum berland, and that General Kelly's advance was alio approaching that place froni New Creey, and;that it was %ought that , an engagement would-take . place." 4 , , - Yesterday afternoon further information was re . ceived here from New Creek, per telegraph, by way of Wheeling and Pittsburg. -It appears that the Confederates -fell back ,before General telly's ad vance without fighting, as no engagement was re. ported. They continued their retrograde* move ment to Cumberland, followed by - Generat'ACelly, They-re-entered the last-named city, but, remained but a short time, as they were pressed by the Fede ral forces. They, left Cumberland on Thursday in the direction of Bedford, Pennsylvania, where it was stated they alleged they were going. • The Union leagues of Baltimore are arming for the emergency. The members comprise about ten thousand, and at their meeting, on Thursday night,' they resolved to offer their services when the safety of Baltimore would seem to require them. For the present, affairs in this neighborhood are quiet, though we know not what a day may bring forth. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JTJNE 22, 1863. THE SPIRIT IN BALTIMORE BALTIMORE, June 20.—The military fire is up in Baltimore for the first time. There is no alarm x cept amongst the enemies of the republic; Many of them have fled in terror. Several thousands of the Union men have en rolled themselves in the militia, in obedience to Gov. Bradford's call, and it is thought that the whole quota of Maryland will be raised in Balti more alone. They are mustered in as fast as they present themselves. If the rebels make any demonstration on our city, they will find us ready to receive them. There is no abatement of the zeal to meet the insolent foe. General Schenck is keenly alive to the situation, and is heartily supported by the Governor and the Mayor in his exertions to put the city in a complete state of defence and resistance. The coming of the New York 7th cheered our hearts, for they are old friends. They gave the Union population new courage. Their first service, yester day, was to escort fifteen hundred of Grant's rebel prisoners through the disloyal streets to Fort Mc- Henry. What a pitiable and revolting sight, those prisoners! A rebel female made demonstrations from one of the balconies of Barnum's Hotel, falling on her knees and praying for the success of the rebellion. •Mr. Barnum got such a hint as will hereafter prevent these offensive demonstrations. I could tell you of military movements going to show we are up and doing, but n'imporle. All I would say to our friends in the North, rally and help us drive the foe from the soil of Maryland. You see no rebel or 'disloyal insolence any more amongst the enemies still residing in our town. They have a wholesome fear of General Schenck. We are raising cavalry forces very rapidly: The Union Leagues,'some eighteen thousand strong, are not sleeping' on their arms. They are a military power now. IMPORTANT CONTRADICTION The rumor that prevailed last night of a force of twenty-five thousand rebels being at. Williamsport, Hagerstown, and Sharpsburg, is ascertained this morning to be an entire fabrication. The only troops at those points 'are those of Jenkins and Hodges, the former makingraids for horses and supplies, and the latter, with his' infantry, standing at Williams port in readiness to protect his crossing With them to Virginia. They are understood to be, driving their plunder unfits ' which would not indicate any lengthened stay on this side. As to the rumored. construction of bridges at Williamsport and Shep herdstown, this is not very likely, as it is known that the Potomac is now so low 'as to render bridges unnecessary in crossing it:—Baltimore American, Saturday. ' ' THE INVASION OF MARYLANDOSITION OF THE REBEL FORCES FREDERICK, Md., June 20.--[Special to the New York Herald.]—The rebel cavalry left Eoonsboro last evening, after capturing a number of horses, and returned to Hagerstown. One regiment of infantry and a battery of artillery were in Hagerstown` yes terday. Six thousand infantry is reported to have crossed at Williamsport, but it is not believed that they will visit Frederick. The enemy has nearly 6,000 infantry this side of the Potomac under General Rhodes. TwO regi ments of infantry and .a squadron of cavalry are at Sharpsburg, and the remainder are encamped be tween Williamsport and Hagerstown. No artillery has been sent over, nor have any troops crossed since, yesterday morning. General Ewell has left Williamsport and gone to wards the main body. His command is - stationed at Charlestown. Lee's army is not knownto be within supporting distance of. Ewell. It is very probable that the rebel forces now in Maryland will not penetrate further North. The cavalry force numbers about 1,200, under Jen kins, and the party which first advanced upon Greencastle and Ohambersbmg numbered only 650. A DISTINGUISHED ARREST Quite a sensation was produced on Baltimore street, on Thursday night, owing to the arrest, in Gilmour's saloon, of a distinguished officer, of the United States army, by Lieutenant Marshal, of the provost guard. The arrest occurred under the fol.' lowing circumstances: -It appears' that the officer had just arrived in this city from Washington, and had gone into Gilmour's saloon to procure some re freshment. He was dressed rather singularly, hav ing a coat of Federal blue, with the insignia of a co lonel of cavalry, while his pants were of the pattern usually worn by artillerymen, and of genuine " but ternut" color. Persons who saw him enter the sa loon strongly surmised that he was :a rebel colonel, and a spy. Lieutenant Marshal, of. the Provost Guard, shortly appeared in the saloon, and informed the officer of the suspicions which were excited as to his being a rebel officer, and that he must produce some evidence to the contrary, whereupon passes were shown, signed by . General Heintzelman and other military officials at Washington, from which" it appeared that he was Colonel Sir Percy Wynd ham, of the New Jersey Cavalry. The evidence 'was not considered conclusive, however, and he was further informed by Lieutenant Marshal that he must consider himself under arrest, and report at the office of the military provostmarshal. Afterthe colonel had finished his meal, he was escorted by Lieutenant Marshal to the office of Colonel Fish, where he was instantly recognized by that• officer, and others present. The mistake was promptly ad justed, and Colonel Wyndham instantly released, With proper explanations.—Baltimore - American, RAILROAD COLLISION. BAL'rneoitE, June 20.—A serious collision took place this morning on the Northern Central Rail road between Williamsport and Harrisburg, a pas senger and freight train colliding. Six persons were killed and twenty wounded. The latest advices say there are- no rebels near Harper's Ferry. • The regular train left this morning for Prederio ' There is no travel on the road between this and riarpoesg.Rarry._thig-morning. _ PENNSYLVANIA, A Large Force Reported Advancing on Pittsburg—Rebel Pickets' at Uniontown. - Major Beazell, U. S. Volunteers, received intelli gence from Fayette county, Pa., this morning, that the rebels, in heavy force, were advancing on Pitts burg, Pa., via the National road leading from Cum berland across the Allegheny Mountains. Their pickets had yeached Grantsville, Md., thirty-eight miles from Uniontown, Fayette 'county, Pa., on Wednesday evening last.—:Washingion Star, of Satur day.

A pGrtion of the New York Cavalry Regiment to day captured twenty rebel prisoners at 111cConnelLs burg, inFulton county. Colonel Lawrence, of the 127th Pennsylvania Re giment, with a portion of his regiment, who were mounted, also captured a squad of rebels who were marauding on this side of the river.

General Couch has issued an order thanking the authorities and citizens of HarrisbUrg for their energy in construct, ing them. The rebels are known to be eight thousand strong at Hagerstown and Williamsport. They hold the south bank of the Potomac, from Cumberland to. Harper's Perry. General Kelley drove them out of Cumberland. When they left, they threatened to return and fur nish.themselves with horsei and forage. They have already done immense damage. It is "thought that Rhodes' rebel force is opposite Williamsport, with twenty thousand men. General Imboden is reported to be advancing, but this is doubtful. Governor Curtin Will review the -New York troops. The two Buffalo regiments have arrived. The Secretary of War has sent a despatch, saying he will sustain the Governor in his promise to send the Pennsylvania troops home after the present emergency is over. HAnnientrno, June 20.—The Governor is being annoyed by officers asking for transportation hoine of Philadelphia volunteers. He'states that he can not see Pennsylvania troops suffer as some of them axe suffering, for the want of blankets, &c, which they cannot receive until they are mustered into ser vice. The Governor informed the colonel commanding one of the regiments who do not wish to go for six months, that he was mortified to hear them asking for transportation before any troops had been moved towards the enemy. Col. Thomas' regiment is a unit so far as they are concerned, and reflect great credit to themselves and upOn. the patriotic sentiments of the Stati..,,Go vernor Curtin offered, this morning : everythinglthat lay] at his command to the soldiers to enlist fqr six months, but as yet they have not accepted his offer. Colonel W. B. Mann has been appointed pravoist marshal, and his Splendid company, with the police force under Captain Spear, make an effective organization. In response to a despatch from_Hon. Henry D. Moore, of this city, in reference to the difficulty about the enlistment of volunteers, at Harrisburg, Governor Curtin replies as follows : " Ilennisuirrio, June 20.—The troops may elect to serve during six months, or during the existing emergency. In either• case, they must be mustered into the service of the United States, the time being specified at time of muster, whether for six months, or • for the emergency. , A. G. CURTIN." The Wissahickon Cavalry return honie this eve , ing. The First City Troop reported to the Go vernor through their captain, S. J. Randall, and asked for service. They expressed a willingness to go. to the front immediately. The Governor has asked that they go towards Carlisle. A MOVEMENT TOWARDS MoCONNELLS VILLE AND .BEDFORD--MILROY ON THE ALERT. [Special to New York Times ] HATLICISBIIRG, June 20.—A heavy force of rebels continues to linger in the vicinity.of Hagerstown and Williamsport. Scouts sent out fan Chambers burg report-that there are indications'of a retreat to the other side of the Potomac, but this afternoon they moved up in the direction of McConnellsville and Bedford. General Milroy is on the alert for tfem. GEN. JENKINS' VISIT TO CHAMBERSBURG. CHAMBERSBURG, June Pt—Under this date a MU zen-of Chambersburg gives a full aceount to the Lancaster Express of the Confederates in Chambers burg. Most of the faots we have published. The rebels, who, as usual, made_ a 'show of chivalry, were neither very brave, courteous, nor humaae, but in some instances brutal. The following pas sages are interesting : • "Night came on, and we retired to rest under rebel protection, and in the morning the court-house bell was rung, and an , order. -read requiring the MU 'zens to give up all the 'guns, swords, pistols, and other.warlike weapons within two hours, andhat if they were not delivered up they would search our "houses and burn down every property in which 4iinies should be found. The guns were •promptly turned in according to order, and a curious looking armory was soon, established. There were guns of all descriptions, some without barrels, some without triggers,.and others without locks, but in the num tier there were about two hundred good muskets, which had.been collected after the raid last year by the United States Quartermaster. "As I before stated, we played a little sharp with . the worthless trash they compelled us to take for money. They demanded $9OO for the horses taken from them by the citizens. They set up the curious plea in support of this demand, that no citizen has a right to take property from military invadere,but that they bad a right to take from the farmers and others any property that would be of use to;them—a right which they illustrated by. seizing about one hun dred and fifty, horses, and a quantity, of saddles, harness, &c., in the neighborhood. So, as the . next best thing;to he done, we collected the $9OO in rebel money from the different stores, and with that paid them for their horses, Of course, they could not well refuse to take their own currency ! "Before leaving, our visitors went to the part of the town occupied by the colored population, and kidnapped all they could find, from the child in the cradle up to men and women of fifty years of age. They tied them with ropes by the wrist, and, pistol in hand, drove them through the streets, firing at them to make them hurry along ! It would have made your very heart "ache •to have witnessed this high-handed and brutal outrage committed on these poor defenceless creatures. The'indignation of our citizens.was intense, but what could they do? The first lot sent through was in charge of a small guard, which was captured, and the ne g roes set free again at Greencastle, about ten miles From here, but I am afraid they were recaptured again by. the rebels. "I have Just had a conversation with one of the wounded Union cavalry soldiers, who fought with the rebels from Bunker Hill, and reached our place on Monday night about four hours before Jenkins' forces:came in. There were about 160 of them, and they skirmished with the rebel advance until near Oreeneastle. We had this young soldier secreted while' the rebels were here. They told us that this little band fought, them gallantly at Bunker 'Hill from four o'clock until night. They used a brick churCh as a' fort, making loop-holes through the walls for their guns. Although they admitted having a vastly superior force, our fellows fought them gal. lantly, and thus kept them from capturing the large train of army wagons which passed through this place on Monday. This was evidently the prize the rebels were after, as the first question they asked on their arrival was, " How far is the wagon train ahead'?" Of , course, none of our citizens gave the stitisfactory information. ' The bitterness of their curses showed how-much they were disappointed, and how nobly our little force did their duty in covering the retreat of the train." ARDIYAF THE POTOMIC.

There is nothing there that can be of any use to them, excepting the buildings, which they cannot hold. The rails which were used for transportation purposes, terminating at that position, have all been torn up and taken away by our forces. Although it is not a proper matter to state the whereabouts of General Hooker's army, it is safe to state that General Lee is believed by the commander of the grand Army of the Potomac to be operating in his front. In the absence of official information on this score, many rumors exist as to the position of the commander of the rebel army with his immediate 'forces. An idea 'which seems to have, in the last two or three days, received believers, is, that he has invested Maryland and Pennsylvania with his parti san rangers, guerillas, &c., to annoy the Army of the. Potomac, while he - slips off to reinforce Bragg and overwhelm General Grant at Vicksburg. Another impression, probably better -founded, is that he is massing a considerable force at Front Royal for the purpose of marching northward and engaging in the third annual battle of Bull Run. ' . Yesterday's rain was not of sufficient duration to place any barrier in the way of their recrossing the river when they desire to return to the soil of Vir ginia, even if the storm reached far enough to cause them any inconvenience whatever by a rise in the rivers over which they must cross. But it is not be lieved that at present there is any disposition on the Part of the invaders to retire from the'grateful shade and luxuriant crops of Pennsylvania valley. It has been demonstrated that horses and cattle for the tired and hungry is the cause of this raid, and they have not yet succeeded in gathering in to their hearts' content the riches contained without the de vastated precincts of;Virginia. - - - A SINGULAR RUMOR—CONFLICTING ,RE PORTS. The New York Express, in the third edition of Saturday, has the following, which we consider doubtful: .

Express rumor. The Star says a cavalry reconnoissance on the day before yesterday, (Thursday,) under Gen. Stahl, demonstrated that a censiderable force of rebel ea valry were in the immediate vicinity of Washing ton ; while Col. Duffle's cavalry, on the same day, definitely ascertained .that Lee holds Thoroughfare Gap with a shriller. force. . Other information leads to the conclusion that Lee is also holding the gaps of the Blue Ridge in our front. THE CAVALRY ENGAGEMENT AT ALDIE BETWEEN GREGG AND STUART. • CCorrespcndence of the yew York Times.] ALDIE, Wednesday, June 17. The advance of General Gregg's cavalry command reached this place at about two o'clock this after noon, where two brigades of the enemy, commanded by General Stuart in person, were found in posses sion. After three 'hours' hard fighting they were forced to retire. The fight, while it lasted, was one of the sharpest that has occurred during the war, and as a consequence the loss of officers and men on both sides is very heavy. The ens my's pickets were first encountered a little east of the village, by companies H and DI of the 2d New York (Harris' Light) Cavalry, under the com mand of Lieut. Dan. Whittaker, and were by them driven through the town back to a ridge of hills half a mile to the west, extending across from the Mid dleburg end Snicker's Gap roads, where the rebel force was in position and ready for action. The ad vance brigade, under General Kilpatrick, imme diately moved through to'the westerly edge of the, town. The Ist Maine,Col. Douty, was sent off to a point half a mile to th left, and the 4th New York, Col. Cear ola, to the right, to support a section of Andrews' battery, placed on a rise of ground north of the Snicker's Gap road. The enemy, at this time, occupied the hill, as before stated, where they had four guns in position ; aline of their skirmishers occupied a fence on the eastern slope, and a long ditch, -just in front of which were half a dozen stacks of hay=thus commanding both Middleburg and Snicker's Gap roade s A stronger position could not well have been selected. When the exact position of the enemy had been ascertained by drawing their fire, General Kilpa trick rode up to the Id New York (Harris' Light), and said then was the time to wipe out the reflec t tion cast upon them for their alleged misconduct in the fight of last week, at Brandy station. He order ed them to charge into the valley and secure the hay-stacks. The ditch or ravine at the rear of this position hall not then been discovered. Companies H and al, accompanied by Lieutenants Whittaker, Raymond, Martinson, Homan, and Stuart, moved off down the Middleburg road. The fence to the right was quickly thrown -down, and, with a dash, -this forlorn hope rushed up to the hay-stacks. For the first time.their fire was, opened from the ditch a . little to the rear of the hayostacks. This was filled with rebel cavalry, many of them armed with rifles. Captain Grinter, with Lieutenants Mattison and Shafer, and Company IC, dashed up immediately to the support oft hese companies ; F, I, D i and G went to the right up the Snicker's Gap road a piece, turned to the left, crossed the field, and reached the scene ofconflict in time to take an active part. The contest for twenty minutes, at this point, was about as spirited a scene as is often witnessed on a battle-field. The 6th Ohio, Major Steadman, was sent up the road to the left, ter support the Harris Light Cavalry, when the whole command, with the major at its head, dashed into the fight just in time to decide the unequal contest. The rebels were forced to abandon.their poeition, and all.who were not killed or captured fled precipitately up the hill. They rande'S. phort stand behind the fence, when a • dash from a:battalion of the 4th : New York, called ~in from its position behind- the battery, together , with:the other:regiments alneady named, drove them ' penmen over the hill. The lat Maine, at about this time, was called in from ;the left, and, with the lst Mariachizetts, stationed on the Snicker's Gap road, took a position held by the 2d battalion of the 4th New York . . , The rebels, at this time, charged down the same road and drove before them a squadron, when Gen. Kilpatrick ordered the Ist Maine, Colonel Douty; Ist Massachusetts, Lieutenant Colonel Curtis, and -.a battalion of the 4th New -York, under Colonel Cesnola, to charges's) the road. There was a little hesitancy at first, when General Kilpatrick, accom panied by Colonel Douty, of the Ist Maine, and Captain Costar, of. General Pleasanton's staff; went, to thesfront and called upon the troops to follow. There was no hesitancy then. The Maine boys gave three cheers Tor General Kilpatrick, and the whole cohimn made a dash up the road in the face of a terrible fire from carbines, rifles, and cannon, sweep ing everything before - them. This virtually ended the fight - The rebels, after a little more skirmish ing, fell back, and, our forces to-night occupy their position. Colonel Cesnola was under arrest at the com mencement of the action, but set such a gallant example to his men, by leading the first charge with out his sword, that upon returning to, the road, General Kilpatrick released him from arrest, and placed upon hiM his own sword. He immediately after participated in the charge with the Ist Maine, Ist Massachusetts, and 4th New York, and has not been, seen since. A sergeant of'the regiment asserts that he saw the Colonel fall, and is surelhat he was killed, and some of the rebel prisoners confirm this report. But the report of his death is not generally believed. In this charge General Kilpatrick had a horse shot under him, and Colonel Douty, of the Ist Maine, was killed. When returning 'from *the charge, the body was found by Captain Vaughn, wno had it preperly cared for. Two shots- struck him, probably at about the same time. The Ist Massa chusetts captured the battle:flag of the 4th Virginia Cavalry. .More than one hundred prisoners were captured— members principally of the ist, 3d, 4th, and sth Vir ginia Cavalry. They say they were under the eom . mand of Gen. Stuart. Among the prisoners is one colonel, three majors, and a lot of line officers. The major and sixty men, -who were stationed behind the haystacks; were nearly all captured. The major considered his position - impregnable, not believing that any, cavalry would dare make a charge - Upon the place, swept as the whole field was by three lines of guns. . ' The 'meeting of Gen. Gregg's command was en tirely, unexpected by the rebel*. Stuart had arrived . thus far on a forced march into Maryland—having marched 25 miles this morning, and expecting to be on the road again in the evening. Two regiments had entered the town, and had pressed into their service all the blacksmith tools to be found, and when our advanced guard approached, they ;were busily engaged'shoeing horses. To-day the command of Colonel Duffle passed through Thoroughfare Gap after a brief fight, and to-night occupies Middleburgh, five miles from Aldie, and in the rear of Stuart's army. Stuart will have to tight tomorrow at a disadvantage, or what is more probable sneak off to-night. Captain Allen, of:the • 4th New York Cavalry, 'Came through the rebel lines with this news.' • . During the engagement today, General Gregg managed affairs in a manner reflecting the highest credit upon his profession. He was fortunate not only 'in having an efficient staff, but able coin menders under him to execute all orders received.' THE SIEGE OF VICKSBURG, Official Report of Admiral Porter The Situation to the 15th—Johnston's Force Insufficient—Surrender Expected. WASHINGTON, June 20.—The Navy Department has received a report, dated June 9, near Vicksburg, in which Admiral Porter states that on the 7th inst., owing to a report that the rebels in force (about 4,000 strong) were threatening Milliken's Bend, where a quantity of army stores was kept, guarded by two black regiments and . a part of the 29th lowa, the gunboats. Choctaw and Lexington were des patched to that place to protect them. Our troops had thrown up some extra entrench ments near the levee, and prepared to receive the rebels, with some doubts as to the issue. The enemy made his attack before daylight, and many of our men had not arrived at that point, The fight was desperate, and our men were over powered and had to retreat behind the bank, near the water's edge, followed closely by the rebels. The gunboats then opened fire on the rebels with shell, grape, and canister, and they fled in wild con fusion, not knowing, the gunboats were there, nor expecting such a reception. They retreated rapidly to the woods and soon disappeared. When last heard from the enemy was bound in the direction of Lake Providence, and Admiral Porter had de spatched gunboats to meet them. In another report of the same date, Admiral Per. ter says : " The army is still advancing close to the works. A battery opened fire on the day before yesterday, and cleared everything before it. The mortars keep constantly playing on- the city and works, and the gunboats throw their shell whenever they see any work going on at the batteries, or any new batteries being put up. Not a soul is to be seen moving in the city; the soldiers lying in their trenches or pits, and the inhabitants being stored in eaves or holes dug out in the cliffs. "Vicksburg must fall. It is only wondered that it has held out so long." The rebel steamer Lady Walton came down from Little Rock, Arkansas, a few days since, and gave herself up to the commanding officer at White river. DlErarnis, June 18, via Cairo, June 20.—The steamer Imperial has arrived, bringing official ad vices from. General Grant's army to Monday, the 15th inst. ' The rebels opened a vigorous fire with srtillery and musketry along the whole line, keeping it up most of the day. At times their firing was furious, but it was with out much effect. Therebels placed two of their mortars out of reach of our guns and sharpshooters, from which they fired nearly a hundred shells at our trenches, but only wounded two or three of our men. The siege is being pressed with vigor on all sides, the defences' in our rear being daily strengthened. General Johnston is evidently afraid to make an attack on our forces. Guerillas are swarming the bankF.4tbove and be low here;land firing on all the passing boats. The .Alice Dean. was fired on at Buck's Island, 35 miles below, and one man was killed..., Measures are being taken to check the operations of the guerillas. A heavy cavalry force is being sent South by Gen. Hurlbut. MURFREESBORO, June 20.—The information re ceived here says that Gen. Grant will undoubtedly take Vicksburg. Ten days ago he entrenched his position on the Big Black, and in the rear of Sherman on Walnut Hills. He is able to defeat any force which may be gent against him, and Johnston cannot collect forces sufficient to dislodge him before the mines shall have been exploded and the city taken. David Bioren, of the 4th Indians. Battery, was shot to-day for desertion. LOUISVILLE, June 20. The steamer McCombs has just arrived, bringing 63 prisoners of the guerilla band that invaded Harrison county, Indiana. Some 10 or 12 of them were shot, and the balance of them were taken a few miles up the river, near Leaven worth. IVlEnirms, June 16, via Calro.—ln the fight be tween Johnston and Grant, on the 6th of June, about 700 Confederate prisoners' were captured, 150 of whom arrived yesterday. In conversation with one of the prisoners, a former resident of this city, I leam th at Johnston, in that engagement, had 15,000 men. Johnston could not hold his position. A man has arrived from the interior of this State, who is directly from the rear of Johnston's army, who says that Johnston can do nothing toward dis lodging Grant with Ms present force ;that in every attack he has suffered severe loss in killed and wounded. I am told by two gentlemen from the rear of Price's army, who left on the 9th, that that officer had a large force in the vicinity of Milliken's Bend, and that he was destroying cotton sheds and gins in all directions. Joe Lexton, half brother of General Forrest, the guerilla, was .killed, a few days agO, while on a scout. The Warrior brings news from Vicksburg -up to the 12th. Guerillas had landed on the cotton plan tation back- of Milliken's Bend, capturing negroes, and burned a considerable number of cotton sheds, gins, and farming utensils. The rebels were driven off of De Soto Point last Thursday; by gun and mortar boats. The river is rising, with plenty of water to Vicks burggg-AsumaTow, June . 20.-Unofficialadvises from Vicksburg - to the 14th have been received. Every thing was going on , well there, and there are many indications 'that the rebel garrison must soon-our •nd. L I The best information credits Loring at Jackson With 5,000 men ; Walker - at Yazoo city with 5,000, and Johnston at. Canton with 15,000. These will be massed together to attack General Grant in the rear, but he holds all the fords on the Big,Black river, which must be crossed by Johnston and Loring. Rebel cavalry are continually on the scout outside'of Grant's lines. Much sickness is said to prevail in Vicksburg, and the eitfzens desire its ca pitulation, which Pemberton absolutely refuses. ARMY OF THE CUMBERLAND. A Letter to "Old Rosy." Special Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette. Irlonangzsnono June 14. General Rosecrans, a day or two since, received a letter which indicates a remarkable degree of sharp ness on the part of the writer, although she sees the truth as through a glass darkly. The evil she corn• plains of undoubtedly exists to an alarming extent, although the real cause may not have been disco vered. There has been so - much rascality connected with the cotton speculation, that it is not Wonderful members of the medical department should be sus pected of complicity therewith. But whether the writer of this letter is correct in her surmises, or not, the sentiments she utters are worthy of being made household words throughout the length and breadth of the loyal States: CHICAGO, Ill.; June 9, 1863. "GENERAL ROSECRANS—SIR : What is the mean ing of so ninny men getting discharged from .your army there have such numbers come from the 19th Illinois and from Nashville who were in good health. How is it that they are so fortunate as,:to get their discharges when others are-not permitted to visit their families? I think there is a leak at the hos pital. The doctors are too fond of money ; and 'the soldiers, by selling cotton and dividing the proceeds with the doctors, manage to procure their dis charges. There are here three from one family who have come home. They belonged to the.l9th Illinois Infantry, and their name is Ambrose. One of them was in perfect health. Theygot into the hospital to" nurse the sick, and there they obtained discharges from the army. ,- • "Now is this right, Roseyl If it is, lam no judge of war. I have two sons in the army. They have been in the service for two years, and during all that . time they have never received a furlough. Is it just to discharge so many, and never let others come - home? Just look after the doctors at Nashville, or the first thing you know you will have but a small army. There are traitors amongst them who will thin your ranks for you. A great many have come `home to this city in the way and condition I have indicated. "I send my best respects to you, and good wishji, hoping you will, with the help of God, whip Bragg and all his host, and then send my boys home to me. It has been two years since I have seen them. The God of Heaven be with you, and lead you on to vic tory ! "A mother who has sons in the army, and who don't like cowards. ANNA —." . Everybody will appreciate the patriotic sentiments of that letter, as well as the sly humor which per 'vades it, while the fact of its publication, by per mission of the commanding general, is an evidence Of •his transparent candor towards the public, and of the sterling honesty with which he endeavors to ad minister the affairs of his department. If any at tempt is ever made in this department to cover up the shortcomings of any class of officials your cor respondent is perfectly certain ffi tat such a course will be in accordance with neither the character nor wishes of Gen. Rogecrans. - NORTH CAROLINA. The Revolted Unionists —A Threat from North Carolina—Another from Davis. FORTRESS Illos7con, June 19, 1863.—The United States transport Emily, Capt. Ashcroft, arrived from Newbern, N. C., this A, M., by which we received the following news from our correspondent, dated NEWBERII, June 17, 1863.—John L. Lay, the naval superintending engineer of this department, recently gave a public exhibition of the operations of his submarine obstructiorvremover in the presence of a large number of naval officers. It satisfactorily de monstrated not only its ability to destroy any iron or wooden vessel, but also • to remove any kind of obstructions in a few moments. - In referring to North Carolina, the rebel Commit tee on River. Fortifications report that the. Union forces are in possession of a belt of country in East ern North Carolina three hundred miles in length, by one hundred and fifty miles , in width, together with her great inland seas and rivers, reaching into the heart of the State, also into Virginia. On these Waters the largest class gunboats are continually coursing, which prevents the construction of fortifi cations. Hence it is very apparent to all, that so long as the Federal Government is allowed to hold possession of this vital region, which contains the most extensive inland waters in the country, the permanent secession;of North Carolina and Virginia from the Union is a matter of great doubt. The Unionists of Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina have joined hands in an extensive organization for the purpose of holding the moun tain region against the rebel . Government. They have been joined by thousands of deserters and con scripts from the rebel army, to whom protection is guarantied. Nearly the entire western portion of North Carolina is united against the conscription. The Raleigh Standard, of the 10th inst., contents a petition to Governor Vance, from the rebel citizens livingin that section, for protection against these organized bands of Unionists, who, according to all accounts, are ruling with a high hand. Vance re plies that he has no troops to send—that they,must take care of themselves the best way they can It also appears that these insurgents are openly offer ing to join the Union troops with twenty thousand men soon as a military post is established at Re- The sth Massachusetts, nine months' men, leave here for home on the 22d inst., by which time they will be relieved by the arrival of another regiment. This arrangement will be carried out in order that our forces hereahall not be diminished. The aristocracy and' extensive slaveholders in North Carolina are strongly opposing the course of Governor Vancei. the Supreme Court, the Whig Legislature, W. W. Holden, of the Raleigh Stand ard, and other opposition papers in this State, who represent the poor white masses in their desire to separate from the Confederacy.' From the Standard it appears that President DaVill has given North Carolina to understand .that if she attempts to carry her movements of separation into effect, the Confederate army, in its retreat from Vir ginia into the cotton States, will devastate and lay waste the entire State of North Carolina. Hence it is concluded that no move to this end can be made by that State until there is a -force of at least seventy.five thousand Union troops in her borders to sustain it. • It is the desire of North Carolina to withdraw frem the contest, and assume a neutral , position. The mail steamer Dudley;-Buck leaves here for. New York to-morrow, at 5 o'clock F. Gen. Wild's appointMent as Military Governor of North Carolina is hourly expected. THREE CENTS. - • -General Me e r on Peaee', At thetanqUet given's:KS : Thursday by a large num ber of , prominent citizens of New York, to General Meagher,iheilelivered a speech, which is valuable as the eloquent expression of the Irish soldiers through their gallant leader. His philippic on the peace movement is especially severe : General Meagher, after referring to the exploits of the Irish on the battle-fields of the world, and especially in the history of this country, spoke at considerable length concerning the peace•at-any price policy, amid the most rapturous applause. He said he should be doing dishonor to the dead if he admitted, for a moment, that those who had fallen had not fallen in a war sanctioned by our obligations of eternal good will to those from whose patriotism, love of liberty, and deep interest in humanity, this Republic took shape and derived its wondrous fidelity. [Cheers.] What swindling hypocrite,. what brazen knave, what paltry dastard, what scurvy called for peace' We must prosecute this war until the insurrection is suppressed. [Cheers.] The company rising and waving handkerchiefs.] War, he admitted, was a calamity. But, he con tinued, there is something infinitely more grievous to a people than, war—than civil war itself, with its appalling progeny of evils—the loss of pub lic virtue, the spread of falsehood, the reign of treachery, the prosperity of the mean and vicious, the exaltation to places of honor and respectability of the illiterate, the vulgar, the sor did and rapacious. The havoc that war makes will be repaired. Industry, art, ambition, survive, though whole regions are, laid desolate. The civ, purified and gloWing, will arise again in grander pro portions from its embers, and its restored bells pro claim a joyful resurrection. Nature herself, ever compassionate and beautiful, heals the wounds and obliterates the scars which the deadliest strife has left; and in the shade of. her ample leaves, under neath her sweetest flowers and the green field which she kindles into waving gold, will wash away' the stains and dedicate to peace the broken weapons of the fight. Such are not the fruits of peace, when peace is paramount to the sanctity of the laws, to the authority of the Go vernment, to the political consequence and historic dignity of the nation, and its apostles urge it re gardless of the irreparable detriment to the na tional life and • reputation it involves. [Great cheering.] Better, a thousand times, that the taxes should be multiplied, that trade should stand still, that commerce should be paralyzed, or limp lazily along, that multitudes should perish on the field with their countryo& flag pointed to the sun, and the glory of the =Akre ; that gayety should put on mourning ; that luxury should get down upon its knees and beg a crust; that the bittern and cormo rant should usurp the warehouse and palace, and the fate of Tyre and Baalbec be its visitation—better all this, a thousand times, than that a people, for the sake of having a reduced taxation, of having a glut of foreign importations, of being corpulent and at ease, shOuld, at the bidding of craven or audacious demagogues,_ clamor for and insist upon a peace which would annihilate their sovereignty, closing their history with the crime of suicide, and an ir revocable sentence of ineffable disgrace.

[Cheers.] Should that infamy befal the nation, let not a atatue, nor a column, in attestation of the founders of the Repub lic, stand to be the scoff of the traitors who shall then hold sway. In reprobation of such a peace—the perverted text of the hypocrite [cheers] : the fictitious capital of the swindling speculator in politica [hie 6CE a voice—" Fernando Wood”] ; the last refuge in which the bankrupt demagogue seeks to recover lost ground, and resuscitate hie shrivelled fortunes [laughter and immense enthusiasm;] in reproba tion of such a peace every soldier in the Army of the Potomac, every soldier in the Army of the Mis siesippi, every eoldier East and West, under arms for the Union, will set his teeth, and bringlis bayo net to the charge. [Tremendous cheering.] Talk to the returned regiments, and see if they do not, to a man, scout thia opprobrious proposition, some of the noisiest and moat flagrant advoaates of which were among the very first to incitethe Democracy to arras, and urge the war.

Th&Obio Union Convention. Hon. B. F. Wade, chairman of the committee on resolutiona, made the following report: _Resolved That the calamities of the present rebel lion have ' been_hrought_enation by the in famous-doctrines of nullification and secession, pro mulgated by Calhoun and denounced by General Jackson in 1812, and reiterated by the Conve nem in city of with the unity, in tegrity, power, and glory of the American-Repub lic. Resolved, That the war must go on with'the Ut most vigor, till the authority of the National Go veretnent is re-established, and the old flag floats again securely and triumphantly over. every State and territory of the Union. Resolved, That in the present exigencies of the Republic, we lay aside personal preferences and prejudices, and henceforth, till the war is ended, will draw no party line but the great line between those who sustain the Government and those who oppose it; between those who rejoice in the triumph of our arms and those who rejoice in the triumph of the enemy. Resolvell, That immortal honor and gratitude are due to our brave and patriotic soldiers in. the field, and everlasting shame and disgrace to any - citizen or party who withholds it; that, sympathising with the army in its hardships, and proud of its gallantry, the lovers of the Union will stand by it, and will re member, aid, and support those who are disabled, and the families of those who fall fighting for their country. Resolved, That confiding inthe honesty, patriotism, and good sense of the President, we pledge to him our support of his earnest efforts to put down the rebellion. Resolved, That the present Governor, David Tod, is an honest, able public servant, and that his official conduct deserves and receives the approbation of all loyal people. After a few remarks by Mr. Wade, who was most enthusiastically applauded, the resolutions were adopted amid great , enthusiasm THE ARMY REPRESENTED Hon. Wm. Dennison stated that the Ohio soldiers of the noble Army of the Cumberland had held a meeting at Triune, on the 9th, and appointed a com mittee to present their wishes on this crisis before 'the convention. A letter representing the general voice of the ar my was then read, amid the greatest patriotic excite ment. A portion is as follows : " We sincerely hope that neither the Convention nor the people of Ohio will deem this action of her citizen• soldiery as formed upon any mere desire to participate, even in the most remote degree, in party or political strifes at home, but solely from a most earnest wish that civil,, State, and political action may be so conducted as to contribute to the great object which all true patriots; whether citizens or soldiers, must have at heart—the maintenance of the Government and the restoration of the Union. With parties, as such, we have long since ceased to sympathize, and to-day the Army of the Cumber landhas but this platform of political principles : 'An unlimiteduse of all the ener'ies and all the re sources of the Government for the prosecution of the war until the rebellion is subjugated and the Union restored. Though formerly divided by all the party .distinctions-of their time, we are to-day a band of brothers,' standing firmly and unitedly, upoh this broad platform. We ask of each other no reason why we are so united, but we gratefully accept the fact and let that suffice. We do not dis cuss whether slavery be wright or wrong;;whether the slaveholder or Abolitionist is the primary cause of .the rebellion ; it is enough for us that the rebellion now exists, and that we are bound by the heritage of the past, and the hope of the future to put it down. We did not refuse to sustain the Go vernmentbefore the Administration inaugurated the policy of emancipation.: We will not desert it now that it has. The efficiency and continued harmony of your army depend, in a great measure, upon the State. Government at home. It has pleased that Government to givens, while yet in the:hid, a voice at the polls, while eminent civilians at home will doubtless be proposed to the Convention as candi dates for the gubernatorial chair, from whom a choice might be made that would command our cor dial support, still, if such choice cannot be made with harmony, We beg to suggest the propriety . of selection being made from among the many eminent public men Ohio now has in the field. Such a can didate, while =being thoroughly acquainted with every want of the soldier, would, at the same time, possess equal ability to administer the domestic af fairs- or the State. For such a candidate we can safely pledge the undivided support of Ohio's one hundred thousand soldier& Presentment , of the-. Grand Jury for the Western District of Pennsylvania. LOYALTY THE FIRST DUTY OF THE CITIZEN.. To the Honorable the Judges of the United State ? Court for the Western district of Pennsylvania, now sitting at Williamsport: The Grand Inquest of the United States for the said district, having disposed of all the indictments laid before them, beg _leave to represent to this honorable court: that we hold it- to be the duty of every man, irrespective of his peculiar political fildnione7to be obedient to the laws of-the laud. and' aid, by all means in his power, in suppressing this wicked rebellion, that has already filled the land with sorrow, caused the death of many thonsands of our brave men, and threatens the overthrow and destruction of our. Government, under which the country has prospered as no other country ever has. If our Government 'is worth• preserving, we possess the means and power of its pre servation, and if we fail to use them, we will regret it when regret will be unavailing, and a form of government forced upon us that will be as op pressive, as the base idea is depressing to the heart of every true patriot and every man who has ajust appreciation of the blessings we have hitherto en joyed. When the chief- Executive officers of. the United States, and the State of Pennsylvania call upon the citizens to suppress rebellion, or repel an invasion in a loyal and non• seceded State, that call should be received and met with a hearty, cheerful, and prompt - response, when the liberties of our country are in danger; when - our country's flag is insulted and trampled under foot, and our dearest'' rights and privileges are threatened to be destroyed, not by a-foreign foe, but by internal enemies who, for more than eighty years have largely 'enjoyed the benefits of our- Government, it •is not a time to- stop and discuss the propriety of a law, or - the wisdom of thee measures that 'have been adopted to suppress rebellion or repel invaders. Our. duty, and ,the duty of every citizen, is to support those to Whom rioinajority of the people have confided the administration of the affairs of the Government in all proper, necessary, legal, and constitutional means to compel sub mission and preserve the Union - from dismember ment, leaving the -correction of errors to be settled when the rebellion is suppressed • and peace restored , to our distracted country. In such . a time as' - the present men's passions are easily excited, and, if these, passions are not controlled, will result in riots, bloodshed, and death,. and destroy the unanimity that ought , to exist in crushing this wicked rebellion, and teaching Secessionists that this Union must and will be pre served, Outbreaks have already occurred, disho norable to those engaged in them, and tending to separate men who should, in crushing this rebellion, be a unit. The Grand Inquest would most ear nestly enjoin forbearance, the cultivation of kind feelings and perfect agreement in forcing the rebels to submission—feeling well satisfied that not only our nationality, but our existence as a - free people, depend upon our unanimity and cordial cooperation with each other, and with the constituted authorities, in sustaining our laws and institutions, and crushing out all armed opposition.

PIIILADELPIIIA, June 24 1863. The week closed with a moderate demand for money. Good borrowers gilt all theYwant at sin per cent. A con. siderable amennt of money is coming from the country. and the supply is likely to meet all demands against it for some time. Government securities are strong, sales being made at yesterday's figures. In the absence of exciting war rumors, gold has been steady all day, figuring at 143%©144, with an increased demand from outsiders. Many anticipate a lively scene of speculation during the existence of the impending bat tle in Virginia, the results of which will- materially affect the price. Of course.it is impossible to say, at this moment, which way gold willinmp in the meantime. The areal interest at present attached to warm:tatters has caused a slight diminution of conversions into the five-twenty loan. In times of great public calamity, or of threatened danger, most men neglect their mere pocket interests, in the intense feeling of securing a personal or national existence. So it has been in regard to money matters; although, of course, business usual go on, while subscriptions to a popular loan may go forivard some time in the fature. There was but one session of the board of brokers to day, and business, inconsequence, is tomewhat limited in extent. State and city loans were steady.
