THE INVASION.
It is very difficult to form any opinion in
referene2 to the movements of the rebel
army now in Maryland. It is certain that
the movement on the upper line of the
Baltimore Railroad was merely a guerilla
exploit. One bridge seems to have been
burned; but as we have no tidings of the
binning party, and communication with
Baltimore c again exists, we may safely
believe that all immediate danger to
Baltimore has passed away, that there
is no serious design at present' contem
plated upon Pennsylvania, and that the
enterprise, such as . it is, - is: now con
fined to an attack upon Washington.
Without knowing the facts, there can be
little doubt that the whole strength of the
rebel army in Maryland )Pill be directed
against Washington. Their whole move
ment indicates such a design. The ad
vance northward was a feint. The cutting
Of the bfidges on the Baltimore and Phila
delphia Railroad was to interrupt commu
niention and prevent reinforcements. While
these small bodies of rebels have been thus
distinguishing themselves in lanes and by
ways, and by exploits against unarmed men
and women and unguarded railways, the
main body of the rebels has been directing
its attention to Washington. We hear of
them in greater force about that city than
in any other part of Maryland. , The de
tachment that occupied Mr. BLmit's place,
and menaced. Tenallytown and the northern
part of the city, must have been a portion
of the coltunn that defeated General WAL
LACE at Monocacy bridge.- The result of
the enterprise against Washington we
have not learned. The city yesterday was
idled - With the most exciting rumors. We
were told that the rebels had made several
attacks upon one of the forts surround
ing the city, with the. hope of forcing
a breach in our line of works, and, by way
of - comfort to our own friends, it was
further said that we had' driven the assail
ing column back with . fearful slaughter.
At the time
~ , o f writing we know nothing,
and these rumors are the meie flincitis of
excited men and wanton. Notlfing is more
probable than - that Washington will be
assailed, if the rebels can do so with the
smallest chance of being successful: The
stake is worth greater risks. The capture
of Washington would entirely change the
aspect of the war. If it would involve
the . danger of European recognition, it
would. also - bring down upon the South
the whole North in vengeance. It would
makethe war a crusade. To the rebellion
this triumph would be ruin, for we know
• ,
with what fury it would kindle the North.
Later despatches prove that Washington
is regularly attacked by an army not to be
despised. It-is an isolated city. That the
rebels in large force have destroyed .so
many miles of the Baltimore road, and
have probably seized Annapolis City, is
evidence of the greatness of their purpose
and the extent of their means. No mere
raiding force would thus operate by combi
tions which require many men, and aim at
the complete separation of , the capital from
the :Northern States..., 4 These.. movements
are the preludes of battle; and if We 'are
not grossly , ' deceived by the statements - we
publish, it is almost certain that a battle.
'vas fought yesterday at Washington, or
will be fought to-day.
The .Action of Philadelphia.
Our generally tit - pathetic city was excited
yesterday. Philadelphia has been dull and
laggard during these exciting days. She
refused to believe in the invasion until it
came almost to her own doors. The action
of the Governor and the Mayor has been. all
that prudent and loyal citizens could de
eire. Men are being armed, money has
been subscribed, and every effort is being
made to put the State in a position. of de
fence, and at the same time aid our good
Friends in Maryland. It would be impro
per to state how many troopshave left the
city, but we can say that during the past
twenty-four hours Philadelphia has done
nobly. The much-abused Union League
is raising its fifth regiment. The Mer
chants are busily recruiting a regi
ment to be raised and equipped• by
them alone. They are making good pro
gress, and show a spirit of emulation and
enterprise. In addition to this, the coal
merchants are adding their contribution to
the war in the shape of a regiment, which
is being recruited with
. great rapidity. In
all parts of the city private citizens are rais
ing companies and sending them on to be
mustered into regiments, according to the
wishes of the Wais Department. The States
of the North are rapidly gathering their
soldiers together. What we do now we do
in spite of a malicious militia system, or ra
ther because we have no militia system at
all. It is simply the spontaneous action of
the people, who have;. determined to repel
the invaders in their own practical way,
and with as little loss in time as possible.
While we demand from all immediate and
energetic efforts to carry on this great and
pressing duty, we. trust that in this time of
excitement our people will not give way to
unnecessary alarm and anxiety. • The coun
try demands the calm devotion of every
citizen.
The , Meeting Yesterday.
If ''we are not satisfied with the great
meeting in Independence Square, yester
day, it is not because'of any lack of enthu
siasm or earnestness in thepeople. Though
the call was first--publislied in the morning
papers it was promptly answered, and thou
sands welcomed an opportunity of consulta
tion which promised to end in action.' The
speakers said sensible things, which were
generally approved; some of them, by their:
own sincerity, strengthened the resolutfon
of their hearers. Three cheers were then
given for the Union, and the meeting ad
journed.
It may be asked, but we cannot answer,
'why the citizens of Philadelphia were thus
called together only to listen to a few elo
quent specelies, and why better use was
not made of the first. opportunity for popu
lar organization. It is said that the pro
jectors of the meeting wished it 6 be en
tirely impromptu, and, therefore, did not
prepare resolutions or any plan of action.
Tile meeting was simply an appeal to the
people.
But there is no need of any appeal to the
people. Philadelphia is not ignorant of
the • danger, nor indifferent to the duty.
All that her citizens want is leadership,
and that, it seems, is denied to them.' A
mere public meeting, whereat we are to be
told that the national capital is attacked,
the State insulted, that men are wanted,
and that it is the duty of brave men to
volunteer, amounts to nothing. The five
thousand men who met yesterday needed
no such information. What they wanted
was a practical plan, and a few good
leaders. If any citizen who has the
confidence, of the public had offered to
help to organize a regiment, scores of men
'would have volunteered at once, and had
any tried soldier offered to lead it, hun-
dreds would have followed him; We do
not wish to disparage a praiseworthy at
tempt, which, of course, did . good ; but we
arc decidedly of the opinion that it might
have done better. Elsewhere we publish
a call to patriotic citizens to enlist in the
Merchants' Regiment, and asking the mer
chants of Philadelphia to unite in sending
it to the front at once. We respectfully
submit that this is the way to do the
Work, and that argument to those who are
convinced, persuasion to those who are re
solved, is at this late hour superfluous.
EnglMM and Denmark.
The determination of the Palmerston •
Cabinet not to give any assistance, except
" lively sympathy," to the unfortunate
Dimes, was formally announced in a very
imposing manner, by Leal RUSSELL in tho
Lords and by Lord PALMEnSTON in the
Commons, on June 27th. The case, di
vested of verbiage, is simply this, that, in
1852, Lord PALMERSTON negotiated a
Treaty whereby the succession- to the
throne of Denmark shoisld be Peacefully
provided for ; thatc Lord . Gnavvrn - rx and
Lord MALMESMMY, also foreign ministers
in that year, each "had a finger in the
. pie ;" that the King of. Denmark chose as
his. successor PrilICC, CHRISTIAN of Glucks
burg ; that, there being a question of the
rightrof the House of Augustenburg to
the Duchy of Holstein, that right was com
muted for a pecuniary indemnity ; that the
Duke of Augusterthure, .having been in
rebellion against the King of Denmark
upon a former occasion; and his estates
having been confiscated, the value of those
estates was given to him ou condition of his
renouncing for himself and his successors
all claims to the Duchy of Holstein ; that, on
the death of the King of Denmark, last
winter, Prince CTERISTLkE bucceeded to
the throng ; that the Duke of Augusten
burg's ion, repudiating the bargain made
by his father; asserted a right to the ,
Duchies of. Schleswig and Holstein ; that
the Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, brother
of the late Prince A.I.BERT, and cousin as
well as brother-inlaw of Queen VICTORIA,
warmly backed up the claims of this pre
tender ; that Germany and Austria, giving
him material . assistance, by sea and land,
invaded Denmark for him, taking the dis
puted Duchies, and threatening to, seize
Jutland, thereby reducing Denmark to a
few islands; that a Conference was held at
London, at which the great European
Powers (who had been -parties to the trea
ty of 1832) were represented; that a sus
pension of hostilities was the rgsult ; that
several weeks were wasted in idle talk;
that, finally, the Conference broke up on
June 25th, and that hostilities were re
sumed on the next day..
Admitting (in Lord PALMERSTON'S
words) that, " from the first to the last,
Denmark had been ill-used ; that might had
overridden right, and that the sympathies
of almost the whole of the British nation
were in her favor," still the British Govern
rant refuses to help her. The alleged rea
sons for letting Denmark go to the dogs is
that Franeg and Russia were indisposed to
take any active measures on her behalf, and
that the whole brunt of the effort, there
fore, whatever it might have been—namely,
the' effort to dislodge the German troops,
and those who might come to their assis
tance from the rest of Germany, from Schles
wig and Holstein—would fall upon Eng
land alone. This might lead to a war with
the whole of Germany.. Therefore, PAL
,
MERSTON declined recommending that Eng
land should aid Denmark. This annottuce
merit, in an unusually crowded Reuse, is
stated to have been'received with murmurs.
The reasons for holding back did not satisfy
the Commons.
Lord PALMERSTON said, at the close, "I
do not mean to say—and I think it right to
put in that reservation—that if the war
should assume a different character, that if
the existence of Denmark as an indepen
dent Power in,Europe'should be at stake ;
I do - not mean to say that if we ivefe- to
find reason to expect thatwe should see at
Copenhagen the horrors of a town' taken
by assault, the destruction of property, the
sacrifice of the lives not only of its defen
ders, but of its peaceful inhabitants, the
confiscation which would arise, the cap
ture of the sovereign as a prisoner of war,
or events of that kind ; I do not mean -to
say, if any of these -events were- likely to,
happen, that the position of this country
might not,possibly be a fit subject for re
.consideration—["ohl obi'' and ministerial
cheers]—or that ether counsels might not
be taken. < But thia I say, on the part of
the Government, that if any change of
.policy were thought desirable, such change
would be communicated to Parliament, if
Parliament were sitting, and, if Parlia
-ment were not sitting, the earliest op
-portunity would he taken of asking for
the judgment of Parliament on the sub-
The Opposition have threatened, through
Mr. DISBAEI:I, to take a vote of the House
of Commons upon the foreign policy of, the
Palmerston Cabinet, and, parties are so
nearly equal in that branch of the Legisla
ture, that the issue is very -,doubtful.
Whether the Government be .beaten or
successful a dissolution of Parliament is at
hand, and the result of this appeal to the
people may wholly change the ildministra
tion as 'n as the policy of England.
WE lIAVE gloomy accounts from the crops
in the great Northwestern country. There
has been.a great drought, and grains and
grasses suffer greatly. There will be a
small crop of wheat, and other staples in
limited quantities. There is some hope for
corn, particularly if We have favorable
weather in the late summer months. This
meagre harvest in the Northwest is unfor- -
tunate at this time, when there arc so many
embarrassments in the country.
Ix Tun opinion of the Louisville Jonrnal,
"Gen. Scott never had a more beautiful or appro
priate description applied to him than is found In
General IVltAllellan , 3 oration at Wait Point—the
"living column of granite against which have
beaten In vain alike the blandishments and storms
of treason.,,
A friend ventures to suggest in a general
way, and with no idea of being critical,
that blandishments ate not in the habit of
beating against granite columns, in this
fashion. Bow yer, as the said friend is
only a civilian, his suggestion. is probably
as hypercritical as it is insidious.
IT IS STATED that we shall - receive from
internal revenue, this year, the sum .of
three hundred millions of dollars. Can
men - who read this believe that a countty
with such resources can be overthrown by
a miserable rebellion?
?rayon GuriznEn dreads that the re
moval of troops from New York will cause
a riot. This shows that the Mayor properly
appreciates the effort of Governor SEYMOUR
in reference to the arrest of General Dix.
A COPPERHEAD orator states that he pre
fers "Liberty to Union."• How many
months is it since the utterance of such a
statement would have stamped a man as a
disunion Abolitionist ?
IN NEVADA they disfranchise all who
have been rebels. We trust to see this
same rule prevail in all parts of the coun
try. No . man who has raised his hand
against the country should ever again be
permitted to return to it.

[Special Despatch to The Press.!
BALTINORIS July 12-10 P. INT.—The excitement
in this city has not abated, although it is reported
that the rebels have disappeared from around the
city. The bulletin boards of the newspaper apes
are crowded round with eager. searchers after news
from Washington and the country surrounding
this city. The hotel parlors and bar-roams have
also their swaying, excited throngs.
W
The Union spirit seems uppermost. Indei
m ne
would imagine that this city was a real Northern
city, 'without its thousands in the rebel army,,were
he to judge by the loyalty that, displays itself every
where and in every way. The throngs seem one in
sentiment—all filled with the same anxiety for the
safely of Baltimore and Washington from the rebel
deliverers who are.making another, effort to acquire
' , My 'Maryland?' If rebel sympathizerS are about,
their number is so few, or their courage so con
temptible, 'that they fail to make their presence
known or appreciably felt. Ten thousand flags
wave to the breeze on the housetops of the city.
To,day business was secondary, news first, all
important, universally sought for. The usual wild
rumors were current, but their patent improbabili
ty secured their disbelief.
In the calm which has settled over the city, we
begin to see that the danger is wearing away, for
the present, at least.
Our brave citizen - soldiers have seen no enemy
to-day, neither have scouts who have scoured the
country for long distances, and they may sleep to
night secure from war's alarms. _
It has been asserted that Early's and Breckin
ridge's commands, together with Johnson's Mary
hinders, who form the main 'body of the Invading
force threatening this city, have fallen back towards
Frederick. This is very improbable,- however. If
they have, the move is inexplicable. ' .
There is now no communication with Washini
ton, and has been none since early this afternoon.
The two wires have been cut at several' different
stations simultaneously, showing that large forces
must have crossed the line of the telegraph road.-
There is every evidenee that the rebels are con
centrathig on Washington, and it is more than pro-.
bable that the raiding forhe around this city has
gone thither, with the detachments called in from
all the quarters in which they have been Pursuing
their work of devastation and plunder. They hare
made a very clean sweep of live stock and grain
from this section. Nearly every farmer and menu
, .
facturerin this county, and those in: thetrack of the
. -
invaders marching from Frederick, have beeitheavy
losers. The inhabitants, however, have r been will
treated ; that is, if we set aside the deprivation of
their property, and consider only the personal coin
monieation between the soldiers and the citizens.
It is known that General A. P. Hill's corps is
confronting Washington, and that Early and Break
inridge were in command of-the rebels before and
around this city. Others are reported here as
having crossed the Potomac at various points
during the" last few days, all converging their
lines . of march upon the Capital. The number of
the rebels. now beleagueringijt it is, -of course, im
possible to say, but the people of the North may
rest assured that it is neither small nor impotent.
various guesses have, been made by parties hero
who profess to be posted, but they vary widely,
though none, g 4 lower down than between twenty
five and thirty thousand. ,
Governor Bradford has issued another proclama
lion, calling the citizens to arms. He does not
think that the emergency is over yet, even if no
enemy can be discovered near this city, or perhaps
in the State.
Refugees. Arrived here this morning from the
trains captured at Magnolia Station. They report
that the mail aboard all fell into the hands of the
enemy. General Sullivan was in command of the
rebels. He is very well known here, and is stated
to have been in the city last Sunday, getting value.-
ble information for his own benefit and that of, his
superiors. It is supposed .itis to his visit here that
he owes his capture of General Franklin, who is
known to:be a prisoner, now, quite likely, on his
way to Richmond. Having ascertained the train on
which the General was to leave, he timed his visit
accordingly.
They do not complain of having been robbed by
Gilmore's men, who by his orders confined their
attention to GoVerniatint property Only. .They say
that seven cars were destroyed, togeitter with the
Gunpowder bridge. The damage done to this
bridge cannot be repaired in less than a week.
The rebels were mounted on horses in fine con
dition. and appeared to be highly elated by their
good fortune. K. O'D.

BALTimonz-1111thilgt.-51r. Flowers, the tole
graph operator at Annapolis Tunotion, has just ar
rived here with his instrument and such valuables
as could hastily be collected. He states that a Fe
deral officer came into Annapolis Junction from
Laurel, this evening,. who reported that a large
rebel force of cavalry and infantry were marching
on that place, tearing up the track, and destroying
the wires, Government property, From High
Hill was seen at Laurel the rebel force marching
on, and its strength may be inferred from the fact
that the column was two hours In passing a certain
point.
In addition to this important and authentic infor
motion, the statements of two rebel deserters, who
came into Annapolis Junction before Mr. Flowers
left, are probably true. They roport that a column
of the enemy was detached from the main army and
sent, to Annapolis city, with orders to hold the town.
' The railroad from Bottsville to Laurel is com
pletely destroyed, and by this time probably to
Annapolis' Junction. The 10 o'clock train from
Baltimore this morning was 'fired on at Bettsvillo
by artillery, but, though three cannon shot passed
near it, the train escaped without injury. No roll

be, as everything has been removed to places of

Baltimore is very quiet. Great anxiety Is felt,

THE FORTIFICATIONS.
Balm eons, July 12.—There is no evidence of the
appearance of any rebel force, even of guerillas, in
llattlmore county to-day. All hes boon quiet around
the city.
The work of strengthening the fortifications is
progressing with great energy under the direction
of General Ord.
Governor Bradford hes issued a proclamation
calling out the entire militia force of the city, who
aro to proceed to the defences to-morrow.
We learn that &party of about 150 robelS arrived at
Towsontown at 10 o'clock last night, being a portion
of ilmoro's party returning from the bridgeoburn
ing at the Gunpowder. They had with them, In two
carriages, . Gen. Franklin and his staff, whom they
hail captured on ono of the Minh:nom trains.
On reaching Towsontown they stopped at Ally's
Hotel, where they partook of rofreshrnonts, after
driving our picket-station about a mile on the road
to this city. They remainod at the hotel till mid
night, and arrested Mr. rannard Matthews, who
was coining through tho town. They hold him until
they departed. Another gentleman from Towson
town states that they had with them the dead body
of the traitor Fields, who was shot by Mr. Ishmael
Day. This, wo think, is a mistake, and If they had
abody with them, ltmust have boon thatorsomooM-
Oer killed in tho expedition, as we hear that the for

and had quite, a jolly time, presenting Mr. Ady with
a fine horse as a compensation for his hospitality to
them.
WO .also learn that they had a slight skirmish
with some or our pickets during the night, near the
Shepherd Asylum, and that ono of our men was
either captured or killed.
THE RECAPTURE CF-FREDERICK—THE
REBELS DRIVEN OUT.
I3svridlOUP., July 12.—The American has received
Information that the rebels wore , again driven out
of Frederick yesterday, and that the old flag again
waves over It. About nine o'clock yesterday morn
ing a division of Cole's cavalry oaine dashing in,
and a fight took place in tile streets between our
troops and the small rebel guard loft there, of only
ono hundred men.
The rebel captain was Idled, and the balance of
the rebels were. driven out and pursued in tho di
rection of the Monocacy. The rebolihad demanded
a contribution of $200,000 in greenbacks. A com
mittee of citizens was appointed to negotiate with
them for the safety of persons and property, and a
pledge was finally given, that if the money was
paid no ono would be molested, either in person or
property, which pledge was kept and the money
paid down. The only property destroyed was the
Government stables, which wore fired on Sunday.
During the time of the rebel possession their fo
raging parties sent out into the country to seize
horses and cattle came in with excessive droves,
including pigs and sheop. At times the main streets
of Frederick were literally filled with horses and
cattle, all of which were driven to the fords and
crossed into Virginia. The informant states that
ho came to this city by the Baltimore pike, and that
the only rebels he met on the route were about
fifteen cavalry, 'whom' ho encountered near Oar
roliX Manor, fourteen miles from Baltimore. They
inquired of him if he knew anything.of 'the Were
abouts' of Bradley T. Johnson's cavalry. Ho replied
that he did not, but shortly afterwa.rds learned that
Johnson had crossed the pike at tjarroll's Manor,
at 0 o'clock yesterday morning, with an immense
train of captured horses, goinglowards the Poto
mac. As ho had command of the raiders in this vi
cinity, it may ho presumed that they have all gone
towards the Potomac.
The rebels did Tory slight damage to the Mono
amp Ircin bridge, It being too strong.
SULLIVAN IN COI4FALUNICATION WITH.
• SIGEL—SOUTH MOUNTAIN
,FORTIFIED .
BY. • TILE REBELS—THE INFLUX- OF
TROOPS TO HARRISBURG.
BAntelennito, July 12.—The gratifying intelli
gence was received to -day that General Sullivan
is in communientio, with General Sigel,. who is
In command at Harper's Ferry. If this connection
can be kept open, advantages will accrue from it
which caution forbids me todiscuss in this despatch.
We have Still another despatch, to the effect that
Sigel!s cavalry wore in Frederick yesterday. Thil
intelligence, however, is
.questionable, as we have.
other information, stating that large rebel forces
were at Boonsboro and Middletown, at the same
time. If this intelligence is correct, it was utterly
impossible for any Federal (twee to maintain itself
at Frederick.
From the South Mountain the news is of a relia
ble character, and it is credited here that the-rebels
have strongly fortified the rugged ranges in that re
gion.
The rumor that a large force of rebels, estimated
at 38.000, had passed through Frederick, assumes
to-night the shape of a fixed and dangeroua fact.
Accompanying this force were . l.4o field pima In 6-
Anion to the force reported to have passed through
Frederick, we have intelligence from rebel °lacers,
by persons living in the city, of a highly Important
character. It purports to give the fact that Hill's
corps was approaching, and that a junction was
expected to be made with the' thirty thousand al
ready referred to at or near Leesburg.
In connection with this report we have a rumor
that the rebels are recrossing the Potomac into Vir
ginia, below Harper's Ferry. There La no 'doubt
that the' movement of crossing a.t:this' point is a
feint, on the fart of:the'..rebels in taaryland, to de
feat any effort calculated to Iffeat the coutaactiori
with the approaching forces under Rill. '
The Patrieveact - mum' denies that qtpre is• any
infkix of troops to Harrisburg, and rhHoules the re
port that he people of Pennsylvania are gallantly
responding to the Governor's call. In reply to this,
I am constrained to declare that volunteers ire
steadily, and in large numbers, repekting for duty
at headquarters, and that the intelligence from all
parts of the State relating to the uprising of the
people Is most cheering. The cities, boroughs, and
towns of Pennsylvania must and will. supply the
necessary troops for the present, but men in the re

THE RAID ON TOE I'IMLADELPIMA, WILMINGTON,
AND lIALTIMOUIt RAILIIOAD
This morning two trains from Porryvillo arrived
at the station at Broad and Prime streets, with
about 200 persons on board, most of whom wero par
tics who bad either been captured by the guerillas
at Magnolia, or who had been detained by tho stop
page or the trains from Baitimoro at that point.
There are conflicting accounts as to the capture of
Major Gen. Wm. B. Franklin at Magnolia:. One
repbrt is that he was on the train in,plain clothes,
and that lie was at once recognized by the guerillas
and carried off with them. Another statement is
contained in a despatch which roads as follows:
"Gen. Franklin is not captured. The mistake
was made in consequence of the resemblance of
another person to the General. When the train
was stopped the first question asked was, Which' is
Gen. Franklin 7 , The conductor replied that ho
knew of no such person being on the train. The
guerillas then passed through the ears and arrested
a , gentleman In plain clothes, whom they main-
Wised was Gen. Franklin. • This statement is con
firmed by Major William Leon, of Gen. Wa
staff."
"Since the above was written we hear that throe
gentlemen from Pennsylvania, who were on board
the train at Magnolia, state that they sat near Gen.
Fre n kiln.
When the guerillas boarded the train they asked
for General Franklin, and, on seeing him, asked his
name and rank. Ile evaded the question. Seine
females from Baltimore then emphatically pointed
out the General, and the guerillas arrested him, and
eked him to march off with him. He replied •that
it was impossible for him to walk with his wound,
when they brought a buggy and drove off with him.
A despatch from Wilmington, dated this morning,
says "N. Wheeler
.came through from Baltimore
over the road during the night, and sends the fol
lowing:
The cause of the gunboat firing at Bush river was
that two of our men, Sanders and John Mahoney,
started with the engine H. Clay to escape from the
rebel, but could not raise steam. They stepped on
Bush river bridge, within range of the gunboat,
which opened on them with shot and shell, when
they left at once. The engineer of the gunboat then
ran the Clay to Havre-de-Grace. She is now In
the shop all right. The engine Sturgis Is off the
track at this end of Gunpowder bridge. The draw
Is burned, together with about forty bents (500 feet)
of the bridge. 'The Noithern Central engine which
was damaged at Magnolia was a camel back. it
had been left on the siding at that point on Sunday
night.' , -

A New English Irowelnd—ihe Royal So-
Tereign
The London papers have given long descriptions
of a new four-turreted iron-clad—the Royal Sove
reign—which has just mails an official trial of speed
at the trial-ground on Stoke's bay, Portsmouth.
The trip apOars to have been a very successful
one, for such an immense vessel. She Is of 3,963
tons burthen, driven by engines of 800 horse-power,
driving a common two-blader screw, ltafeet in dia
meter. Her length Is 250 feet, and her, breadth
63. Her draught of water forward is 21 feet 2 Maker,
aft 24 feet 10 inches, and the distance from the top
of her deck plating to the water is 7 feet 10 inches.
She obeyed her helm extremely well, making with
full boiler power , eleven knots, and with half power
eight knots. Her plan is that of our monitors, bat
is claimed as original to the designer of the Sove
reign, Captain Cole, H. N. Her upper deck is
turtle•backed, and along the crest of the curve
stand the four turrets and pilot house, funnel
and casing, hatchways, masts, ventilating shafts,
&c. Everything above the deck is painted white,
and nothing relieves the , monotony of color but
a few carvings of English insignia. The fore
most turret, standing fire feet above the deck,
has its top covered by a grating, and is surrounded
by a hand-rail, so that It will serve for a promenade
to the look-out or the officer of the deck. There is
a similar contrivance on the tops of the pilot-house
and funnel-casing. The three single gun-turrets
are 4 feet 3 inches. The tops aro all closed by heavy
angle-iron, and all the apertures opening below
decks are closed by wrought-iron bars 4!..S.lnch by
In-inch, placed 4 inches apart, to prevent the pas
sage below of shot and shell. The deck is
combined wood and iron, laid upon roiled Iron
beams, and the original beilms of the ship. These
are placed closely together, so Writ if a shot pene
trates through both layers of the deck It would be
difficult to force a further passage: The openings
between the turrets and the deck are closed by
leather Ham metal weighted at the outer edges, and
iron coverings serve similar purposes around the
hatchways. The pilot-house is oval, plated with
five-and-a-half inch iron, and stands between
the foremost turret and the funnel casing.
But she differs from all other iron-clads : first, to
the form of her hull, which is V-shaped; in her tur
rets revolving by four different appliances of power,
via: by hand; by rack and , pinion inside the tur
ret; do. outside, and a fixture on the lower deck;
tackles and hand•spikes shipped and manned by
capsain bars, in Ilan of one method only—by steam.
But It is especially , in her armor and the disposition
of her turrets that she ditierr from our American
any
nation. The armor is composed
or, more correctly speaking, of solid, rolled plating,
Instead of a number of inch and inch-and-a-half
plates together, as is the me with our monitors.
The Titers, in discussing the evident points of
difference between the Sovereign and the American
turret ships, enumerates four which It considers great
advantages withal. It lays down the following fbur
points of advantageous difference :
1. Exposed height of turret above the deck. 2.
Turret's support at base when revolving or repelling
shock when struck by shut. 3. Jamming of port
stoppers or mantelets. 4. Disabling of gun•ear
riages.
It says that the turrets, instead of resting on
brass rings on the upper deck, from which they are
raised by means of a sorry-wedge, in time of action,
have their base and working portion on the lower
deck. Less holght-surface Is thus presented to an
enemy's guns.
The Royal Sovereign's turrets distribute their
weight over a large space, while the turret revolves
on bevelled wheels, much in, the same manner as a
railroad turn-table. This the. Times considers a re
markable difference from American monitors, whose
urrets stand out like boys' peg-tops when spinning,
depending entirely on the perpendicularity of the
central sphidie. It contends further, that the tur
rets of the Royal Sovereign, through this difference,
expose less surface to shot, and enjoy a great ad
vantage over American monitors which have the
weakest opposite. In the American monitors, the
port stoppers (to protest the crew when loading the
gun) are of iron, and swing upon an iron pivot. In
the Royal Sovereign they aro niaesive rope man
telets (after the fashion taught us by the Russians
at Sebastopol), with cable grummets worked sailor
fashion round the gun inside the port, sufficiently
strong to keep any rifle ball or splinters from large
projectiles or shells from entering the port. In the
Atherlean vessels, the guns have no breeching, but
trust entirely to a powerful compressor. The Royal
Sovereign's gun-carriages, on the contrary, have not
only powerful compressors, but they have, as all
guns at sea should have, good breechings, with
carriages working on inclined planes with great
friction.
The vessel is armed with live guns, of leg-inch
bore. They are smooth-bore 150 pounders; but if
they had been rifted, would have been WO-pounders.
The foremost turret carries two guns, requiring
thirteen men to work them, and on the other three
turrets nine men each are stationed. The guns
work on massive platforms, with an inclination of
.four deg., by which the recoil (six feet) is somewhat
checked. They are loaded by machinery, and the
method of sighting is after the most approved Eng
lish plan.

The rebel raid into Maryland is having its elect
upon our citizens, and proves the cause of much ex

General Sandford designated the 4th, 6th, 11th,
84th, 03d, 95th, 90th, and nOth Regiments, for garri
son duty at Washington. They will nil be at their
posts before the end of the present week; the Brook

ac
company them. Sunday being a day of rumors re
garding the results of the now invasion, a great stir
was observable among the military men. All sorts
Of orders, possible and impossible, were expected.
The possible ones'are Improbable, and the Impossible
ones having not yet been issued, our soldiers retired
to their homes, satisfied that all was quiet along the
lines. Our well-known "crack regiments," as they
aro called, aro not to be called upon in this emer
gency. Tiro precaution is wise In times like these,
when men •aro awaiting in grim expecta
tion and sullen determination tho new up
heaval of mob passions so tenderly fostered
by the Copperhead politicians and their or
gans. Our 7th Regiment (the old city pet)
has been thoroughly drilled In street-tactics,
and would, from this very proficiency, prove more
terrible to a mob than any two veteran regiments
that could at this day be summoned - from the Vir
ginia field. Its ranks are full, and at any moment
the number of muskets could be doubled by acces
sions from the youth of the city, whose enthusiasm
on behalf of this regiment Is peculiar. It was the
old 7th Reserve that proved so terrible to the rioters
in last July—the same, I believe, that made itself R.
record ao stern and admirable at the house where
Colonel Jardine, lay wounded, with the butcherly
outliers hunting him from attic to basement. It
was the'ith that quelled the Astor Place riot, and
that checked the "Dead Rabbit" demonstration
in its incipient stages many years subsequent. Its
presence in our city was all that prevented the
Wood-pollee riot from becoming more frightful in
its proportions, at a time when it was detained here
by special orders, and the men, drawn up in the
Park, expected to undert t ake the somewhat peculiar
fent of storming our own City Hall.
The steamboat John Potter, of the Camden and
Amboy line, was destroyed by fire, at its pier, early
oWDlonday morning. At the time a fearful thunder
shower was raging. Aroused by the long, rumbling
crashes of thunder, men started from their slumbers
only to see the heavens In aglow; the red, dripping
clouds Swaying like huge amorphous lanterns above
the city, and lighting up the streets and rooms
brilliantly. Tho belated pedestrian, struggling
vainly with his apostate umbrella, saw at windows
So many Dlemnons, shrouded In white, staring
stonily at the blood-bedabbled sky, and engaged in
profound analyses of its cause. Who can tell how
many visions of riot and ruin, of prowling mobs, of
negroes charring at streebttres, of arson and mur
der, and outrage, floated through the brains of those
silent watchorst In the present excited state of the
public mind, the co-operation of events otherwise
insignificant Is quite sufficient to cause a sensation

Speaking of the drama,naturaliy enough suggests
the moll() member of the Gemini, literature. There
was a time in the Elysian days of publishers when
only the vagrant Bohemian, or the genuine man of
letters, stalked into private offices with an obelisk
of manuscript under his arm. But In this singular

and her quiet, haughty face, and her well.dissem

read it, Isdeased. Claude Lest:: is a noble creation,

all that sort of thing, that, "really, my good Ma

great noodle, and Little Maudlin an execrable bit
of school-girl portraiture, at which even a weekly
editor would stand aghast. And so Miss Flora Mc-

with her be-ribboned Manuscript In her hand. The
matter has been one of utter Insignificance ;.with a

An Ohl Stratagem Tried Again.
More than ten days atro, as we know on the beat
authority, Gen. Grant inforuied the War Depart
meet of the fact that certain troops had been sent
by Lee into the Valley, with orders to cross the Po
tomae and do what damage they could in Pennsyl
vania and Maryland. Grant informed the Secre
tary of War of Lee's directions ,and. intentions;
told'bim what force to expect, and showed, in short,
that he knew what was going on. At the same lime
be made all the necessary preparations to meet the
plans of the rebels._
lie did not, hoivever, attempt to guard every foot
of railroad near the Potomac ; he did not Hue that
river with troops, so as to, prevent the crossing of
rebel troopers ' • he did not break up his own plans to
counteract those of Lee ; if he had, he would have
done precisely what Lee wanted. No • Grant left
something for the soldiers in garrison andthe militia
of tho free States to do. Be threw upon the citizens
the burden of defending their property against the
scattered and weak bands which he knew 000ld
easily be driven off by a few resolute men. Ten
rebels burned the house of Governor Bradford;
fourteen destroyed the railroad at CoekeYsville:
two hundred seized the cars at Magnolia; and
band§ of from four or bye to twenty appear in dif
ferent parts of the country, rob farmers, burn
bridges, and ride away on the hest horses they can
find.
Meantime this attempt at a diversion by the
rebels probably reminds Gen. Grant of a very simi
lar affair which occurred while he was-besieging
Vicksburg last year. The rebels suddenly appeared
in apparently considerable numbers at many points
in the country about Corinth, and instantly the rebel
newspapers, and their abettors in the North, began
to show that it. was all up with Grant's army.
An immense force was moving against Mem
phis ; this point was to - be captured, the Mississippi
closed above, supplies stopped, and poor Grant
forced to surrender. The plot really looked pro
mising ; and many persons began to have fears kr
our army behind Vicksburg. The rebel forces in the
meantime burned some stores, destroyed some miles
•of railroad, ran hither and thither in small bands
as they are doing now, created a good deal
of excitement amongst post commanders, who
bad to lie awake nights in fear of an
attack, or had to chase fur days a force which
they could never find, and presently the excitement
died sway, the tremendous rebel host was found to
be a myth, the attempt on Memphis was discovered.
to be rather an attempt upon Grant's credulity,
and a very foolish failure at that • and when John
ston discovered that he. could neither whip Grant
nor scare him, he left Pemberton to his fate, and
Vicksburg fell,
. For, remember, no threat sufficed to make Grant
budge from his post. Ho lay quietly before Vicks
burg as now Le does before Petersburg, and paid no
attention to the demonstration of Johnston, the
foolls.h boasts of the rebel journals, and "the pro
mises of Davis. What happened last year Is re
peating itself now. Once more Grant is threat
ened ; once more the rebels play their fa
vorite Annie of bluff; but Grant, who knows
what they--arc doing, and what they can do,
and what they cannot do, quietly pursnes the task
he has set his army. Ile appears to be as completely
satisfied with Ills situation now as when ho was be
fore 'Vicksburg. It may be true, as rebel sympa
thizers hint; that he has done just what Lee wanted,
thst ho is just where Leo wants him to be, that Lee
will , prosently show his cards and take the game ;
but until ho does, we shall maintain our confidenca
In Grant ; for, however it may end, the movement
against Lee is accompanied by precisely the. same
phenomena which signalised that against Pember
ton last. year.—N. I". Evening Post.
A SIRGULAti INCTITENT.—Twenty years 4V/ a
gentleman of this city resolved to remove out West,
and started for his destination. In New York he
stopped at a second-class hotel, and while there was
robbed of his purse. containing some two thousand
dollars inlold. In the course of his pere g rinations
he was successful, and had forgotten all abouthis
loss, having accumulated a handsome property.
When the war broke Out he was too old to enlist,
but, feeling patriotic, he efferent his services to Gen.
Logan and acted as quartermaster to a brigade.
One night, on a march, the army arrived at a south
town In Southern Alabama, and, according to or
ders, be took possession of the inn for genentl ho:ul
,quarters. While talking with the landlord ho dis
covered that he formerly kept a hotel in New York,
and, upon pressing his inquiries, found that ho was
the Identical landlord of the house in which he had
been robbed. in the course of the evening he ar
ranged a mock court-martial, and brought the land:
lord before it, charging hint, among other things,
with the robbery. aluch to his surprise the land
lord confessed the robbery, and 'ae hod his choice to
restore the money or din at sunrise. The man re
ceived his principal, and all the interest the land
lord could ailonl to pay, in gold, which the gentle
man invested In U. S. 1"-30 notes.—Boston Gazette.

N. Y. Tribune.
The Capture of the Baltimore Tra
A lady, who is temporarily residing In Phila
delphia, was a passenger in the 8.40 Ejtaltimore train
that left thnt city on Monday morning and was cap
tured by rebel cavalry near Bnsh river. We have
beard the statement of this lady, which may be coo
(lensed as follows: The train, containing two hun
dred passengers at least, was moving over the road
at the usual rate when suddenly, at Magnolia, a
volley of musketry was fired Into it, anti one of the
Men on the engine was killed. The train was im
mediately stopped, and the cavalry. to the number
of several hundred, immediately drew themselves
up in battle array. "Are you going to murder nal"
Inquired our lady informant.
"No. madam. we tin not intend to hurt you ; ire
are nearly all Marylanders, and, only want the Go
vernment property. , "
With this assnrance the lady passengers had their
fears quieted. The marauders commenced removing
tle baggage of the passengers, and assisting them
out. one of the party carrying the child in care of
our Informant to a shady place.
All this having been done In a somewhat hurried
manner, the train was tired and run on the bridge
at Bush river. where it burnt and destroyed a por
tion or the bridge.
Tbo marauders were under the summand of nrajw
Henry Gilmore, .of Baltimore. He is attached to
the rebel army. He was in Baltimore on Sunday,
at which time 134 learned that Major General Frank
lin would be on the train on the following morning.
It was then determir ed to capture him. The Gene
ral was still suffering from a wound he received in
battle. in Gen. Banks' army corps, a short time
since, and this prevented him from effecting his es
cape. The rebelasaid they had plenty of friends in
all parts of the neighborhood where the train was
captured. Their horses were splenclid-hxollng ani
mels. well fed, and quite lively, and pranced about
in all directions, thus making sufficient dust to al
most choke the passengers. A number of those on the
train were robbed, and this was reported to Majot
Gilmore, who bad assnred all that private property
should be respected. One of the Indies bad lrst see
thousand dollars. The man who robbed her was id a
tided by the lady, and he was made to return i
money, by order of the Major. who drew a pi
and threatened to kill him on the spot if he did aef
at once restore the money, The threat had aht.
tory effect. The passengers generally had to ik
f
r
from the place of captivity to the Gunpowder r e,
during which many of the men were sun-striek,
end that is the last .our informant heard of t t i i, m.
She and the children were token In a privy
N t r
age to GunpOsTrtler• river, where they were en
on board n - tnited States gunboat, and very Oily
treated. In eight hours after. the train was entre
ly consumed, and with a portion of the upper led
work of the bridge, fell into the river.
The soldiers, numbering forty men, stationedts a
guard at Magnolia, were on a blackberryhunt attire
time of the capture. 1
Our informant states that General FranirllnieaS
asked if be could ride a horse, and that he refitted
that he could not without giving him unneerry
pain.. A light wagon -was then procured an 'the
Geneal was driven away. _
In addition to the above we may state tha; the
succeeding train from Baltimore was captured;and
it is said the passengers generally were mbbert:.
We hear it further stated that some of the liiiell
desired to have some of the buttons of Gilm4re's
coat, as a memento of the occason. Several were
-distributed.
