There is either atraitpr, an ass or a consummate fool, Who does the " associated Press" at Har risburg. “He seems incapable of telling what he knows, which is very, very little. However, we are able to say this : A party of rebel horse took possession .of Chambers burg, as published last week. 4 As regards the number of the invaderswe are as much in the dark as ever. Their approach was held indi cative of strong ..reserves of ar tillery in their rear, and the Governor promptly called for troops, and proceeded to'put the-ap proaches to Harrisburg iu a state of defense. Meantime, G6v. Seymour very promptly sent several New York Regiments on to assist Gov. Curtin ; Gov. Parker, of New Jersey, did the same for New Jersey. The rural districts of Pennsylvania poured out their quota of sturdy formers, pod Philadelphia, Inst, but not least, managed to get off some men; for Harrisburg after New York hod set the example. On the 17tb, the rebels left the State, but subsequent ly returned and took possession of McConnels burg. That they meditated an attack upon the principal cities of this State is beyond-question. But onr people are in a state of preparation. Lee’s army is said to be west of the Bull Bun Mountains, moving north. Hooker is keeping pace with him. Our forces have been driven from several points in Northern Vir ginia, Harpers Ferry among the rest. Gen. Milroy made a gallant fight against odds at Winchester, but was forced to retire. He was afterward surrounded, but cut his way out and reached a place' of s_afety. The rebels were also driven from Harpers Ferry. Hagerstown, Md. f is occupied by the rebels. They are said to be in force both there and at Williamsport, and about to make the Potomao Jheir new base of operations. *4- Tbu-rtbels patronized the druggists and dry goods men of Chambersbnrg very freely, pay ing in'Confoderate rags. They carried off all the horses and cattle they could find. Up to this time the invasion seem* 'nothing worse » inltl UJ 4U*tco, lint *!•« w UTSt rvf it may not be arrived. Gen. Milroy is reported to be sweeping down from the western part of tho State with a large force of cavalry and riflemen. He will give the invaders a warm greeting if he gets near enough. There are : signs of a movement upon Rich mond from the Peninsula. - Theya was a cavalry fight near Aldle’Va., on the 18th' between our forces under Col. Kil patrick, and the rebels under Getf. Leo. Kil patrick drove the rebels five miles. •From Vicksburg wo. have the assurance of Gen. Grant that he can take Vicksburg at any lime.
