Pleasanton's forces crossed the Rappa
hannock in two columns, the right at Beverly's
Fora. and the left at Kelly's, six miles below.
T oe folds were taken without loss, and with
,;:;.ght skirmishing. A mile from the river, the

re bel cavalry, and, taken in flank by another
brigade, cut their way out from overpowering
am b ers . They lost heavily. General Gregg,
f Pennsylvania, commanded the left column.
The Rebels were commanded by Fitzhugh Lee,
F. Lee, Jones, Field, and Robinson, and were
under orders for a raid into Maryland, which
bas been anticipated and checked. Colonel Da
and Lieutenant-Colonel Irwin, of New York
Nally, Captain Davis, of the 6th Pennsylvania

Elie received a shot through his leg, and Capt.

The loss of the enemy is said to be fearful. It

but it succeeded in thwarting the plans of Gen.
Lee to get into the rear of the army of the Rap.
paha•
imock and lay waste the fertile border
counties of Maryland and Pennsylvania.
REBEL CAVALRY RAID INTO MARYLAND.
The enemy's cavalry, about 250 strong, crossed
the Potomac near Pooleaville on Thursday morn
ing at daybreak, and drove the patrols of the
Sixth Michigan cavalry back to within three
miles of that town. The enemy then retreated
to Seneca, burned the camp of the Michigan
company, returned down the towpath and re
amed the river. We lest four men killed one
badly wounded. The enemy left on the field and
one lieutenant and one private killed.
A RECONNOISSANCE ACROSS THE KAPPA-
HANNOCK.
A reconnoissance in force, by the 21 division
6th Army Corps, was made across the Rapp,-
hassock at noon of the sth instant, at what is
known as Franklin's crossing, near Deep Run.
The crossing was resisted by the rebel sharp—
shooters, but our troops pushed across under a
severe fire, and stormed the opposite rifle pits,
which they took, with nearly a hundred prison
ers. The object appears to have been to ascer—
tain the whereabouts of a portion of Lee's army,
and was successfully accomplished.
THE SIEGE OF PORT HUDSON.
OFFICIAL REPORT BY GEL BANKS.
WASHINGTON, June 9, 1863.
The following official report by Gen. Banks
ass received this morning:
HEADQUARTERS! ARMY OF TRR GULF,
LEFORK PORT HUDSON, May 30.
H.W. HALLEcz, Gen.-in-OW Waehington
GENERAL: Leaving Sommeeporl on the Atcha
falaya, where my command was at the date of my
last dispatch, I landed at Bayou Bitra at 2 o'clock
on the morning of the 21st.
A portion of the infantry were transported in
steamers, and tbd balance of the infantry, artil
lery, cavalry, and wagon train moved down on
she west bank of the river, and from this to
Bayou Sara.
un the 23d a junction was effected with the
advance of Alai Gen_ Augur and Brigadier Oen.
Sherman, our line occupying the Bayou .Sara
road at a distance of five miles from Port Hudson.
Major-Gen. Augur had an encounter with a
portion of the enemy on the Bayou Sara road in
the direction of Baton Rouge, which resulted in
the repulse of the enemy wi th
. heavy loss.
On the 25th the enemy was compelled to aban
don his first line of works.
Gen. Weitzel's brigade, which had covered one
rear on the march from Alexandria, joined us on
the 2Gth, and on the morning of the 27th a gen
eral assault was made upon the fortifications.
The artillery opened fire between 5 and 6 o'-
clock, which was continued with animation du—
ring the day_ At 10 o'clock Weitzel's brigade,
with thedivision of Gen. Grover, reduced to about
two brigades, and the division of General Emory,
temporarily reduced by detachments to about a
brigade, under command of Col... Paine, with two
regiments of colored troops, made an assault
upon the right of the enen y's works, crossing
Sandy Creek, and driving them through the
woods to their fortifications.
The fight lasted on this line until 4 o'clock,
and was very severely contested. On the left,
the infantry did not come up until later in the
day; but at 2 o'clock an assault was opened on
the center and left of center by the divisions un
der Major-Gen. Augur and Brig—Gen. Sherman.
The enemy was driven into his works, and our
troops moved up to the fortifications, holding the
opposite aides of the parapet with the enemy on
the right. Our troops still hold their position
on the left. After dark the main body, being
exposed to a Bank fire, withdrew to a belt of
woods, the akirmishera remaining close upon the
fortifications.
In the assault of the 27th, the behavior of the I
officers and men was most gallant, and left noth
ing to be desired. Our limited acquaintance of
the ground and the character of the works, which
were almost hidden from our observation until
the moment of approach, alone prevented the
capture of the post. .
On the extreme right of our line I posted the
Ist and 3d Regiments of negro troops. The Ist
Regiment of Louisiana Engineers, composed ex
clusively of colored men, excepting the officers,
was also engaged in the operations of the day.
The position occupied by these troops was one of
importance, and called for the utmost steadiness
and bravery in those to whom it was confided.
It gives me pleasure to report that they answered
every expectation. In many respects their con
duct was heroic, no troops could be more deter
mined or more daring_ They made, during the
day, three charges upon the batteries of the
enemy, suffering very heavy losses, and holding
their position at nightfall with the other troops
on the right of our lines. The highest commen
dation is bestowed upon them by all the officers
in command on the right.
Whatever doubt may have existed heretofore
as to the efficiency of organizations of this char
acter, the history of this day proves conclusively
to those who were in condition to observe the
Conduct of these regiments, that the Government
will find in this class of troops effective support
s and defenders- The severe test to which
they were subjected, and the determined manner
is which they encountered the enemy, leaves
upon my mind no doubt of their ultimate euc
cess.
They require only good officals, commands of
limited numbers, and careful discipline to make
them excellent soldiers.
Our losses from the 23d to this date, in killed,
'Wounded, aud niitAng, are nearly one thousand,
including, I deeply regret to say, some of the
ablest officers of the corps. lam unable yet to
report them in detail.
I have the honor to be, with much respect,
Your obedient servant,
N. P. BANKS, Maj.-Clen. Comd'g.
FURTHER FROM PORT HUDSON
Later news from Port Hudson informs us that
Gen. Gardiner, commanding the garrison, bad
sent in a flag of truce to Gen. Banks, offering to
surrender underPemberton's reported conditions,
but the reply of Gen. Banks, like that of Gen.
Giant, was unconditional. The rebels fought
with great desperation, and whole companies
were Cut down at. their guns. Oen. T- W. Sher
man, wounded at Port Hodson, is hardly expect
ed to recover, and among the killed was Major
Milli], once• an aid-de camp to the King of
Denmark. Great bitterness exists between the
pegro soldiers and the rebels. For a negro lately
hung, his comrades hung a rebel in retaliation.
Banks has been reinforced from New Orleans.
Profiting by the absence of so large a number of
troops, guerilla parties are threatening incursion.
Farragut had kept up a fierce bombard
ment, but received no reply from the rebels in
Port Hudson, who have every reason to save
their ammunition.
Pascagoula dispatches say that Gen. Sherman
was taken to New.Orleana and bad his leg ampu
tated; but that he afterward died.
LATEST PROM VICKSBURG.
Our latest advices from Vicksburg are to the
Bth inst. They come from Gen. Grant himself to
official persons in Washington. Up to that date
the siege was progressing satisfactorily. On the
4th inst.. Gen. Grant and Gen. Banks were in
communication, Port. Hudson at that time,
which is the latest date we have, being closely
invested. Gen. Grant expresses no fear either
of the army in his front or rear, and regards the
capture of Vicksburg as certain. The rebels are
said to have made an attack on the 6th inst. at
hfillikin's Bend and Young's Point, and were re
pulsed.
Recent semi-official telegrams from the rear of
Vicksburg stated that Rebel deserters and priso
ners named the 9th inst. as the last day to which
it woe possible for the !lAMB in the plate to hold
out. .
The Cincinnati Commercial of the 10th has ad
vices from Vicksburg, through an officer of the
48th Ohio Volunteers.
The condition of affairs there was favorable.
The troops were impressed with the idea that
Vicksburg must fall, and have no idea of failure.
Our losses are greatly exaggerated. The total
loss since the crossing of the Mississippi will not
exceed 7.000.
Gen. Kimball's expedition of 3,000 men went
up the Yazoo to Saluria, thirty miles below Yazoo
city, and discovered a rebel force under General
Wirt Adams. The rebel% two thousand strong,
were routed, losing many in killed and wounded,
and two hundred prisoners.

ship, in consideration of important events in our

to believe that our liberties and freedom under
our glorious Constitution, for which our fathers
fought and bled, are endangered by the Negro-
Abolition fanaticism of many of our Northern
citizens; and WHIGUEAS, We do not believe that
this once happy and glorious Union can ever be

by disregarding the rights guaranteed to the
citizens and by advocating a higher law doctrine
Therefore

the Union as it was, and shall claim the privilege,

attained and maintained by a strict observance

Resolved, That the Democrats of Marion de
nounce, in the name of the Constitution of the

ty, the outrage practiced upon some of our citi
zens, as well as citizens of other States, in ar
resting them -and carrying them away for no
other crime than exercising the right of freemen
in expressing an opinion on the policy of the
present Administration.
Resolved, That we abhor and detest the black
hearted abolition spies and common informers
who are amongst us, who have not manhood
enough to do their dirty work openly but employ
a certain notorious " Bully" to carry out their
malicious designs.
Resolved, That the course pursued and princi
ples advocated by our. County Representatives,
the Ron. S. E. Ancona, lion. Hiester Clymer,
and Messrs. Potteiger, Kline and Weidner, meet
with our entire approbation, and that we have
full confidence in the ability, integrity and sound
Democratic principles of our Hon. Senator, Mr.
CLYMER, our first choice for the neat Governor
of Pennsylvania; and if nominated by the next
Democratic State Convention, will pledge our
selves to give him such a majority as no other
candidate ever received in Old Berks.
Resolved, That the thanks of this meeting are

LANCASTER, PA., March 4, 1803.
Dr. G. H. MARKLEY—Dear Sir: For many years I was
the victim of Dyspepsia in its most aggravated form ; my
system having become so much deranged and debilitated,
that I was unable to perform any kind of labor. I had re.
sorted to the best doctors within reach, without relief. I
used some of the most popular remedies of the day, bat
none of them did me any good. My mitering. cannot be
described in words! I wee then living at Hopewell, Chea
ter county, and in 1817, as a last resort, I commenced the
nee of your medicines. They noon afforded me relief from.
the most painful symptoms which I had scarcely hoped to
obtain ; and in a surprisingly 'Mort time I wee completely
restored to health, and I have enjoyed the beet of health
ever since—not a symptom of my old complaint remain
ing. Since then, I have always kept your medicines in
my family, and would not be without them upon any con
fideration, as they have never failed to do what you claim
or them. Respectfully yours, .
