Report of Another Raid.
Our city was alarmed yesterday afternoon
by the report that another raid was antici
pated in the Cumberland Valley. If such is
really the fact the rebel force cannot be a
large one, and must be under the guerrilla
leader Mosby. Oar force in that region is
sufficiently large to counteract any movement
the rebels may make, and we have no fear
that serious damage can be done, by them
without being captured by our forces, who
are posted all along the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad.
P. to tom o'clock last night General
Couch who is stationed at Chambersburg,
telegraphed, that he had received no informa
tion that the rebels had crossed the Potomac.
The New Seeretary , of the Treasury.
Our dispatches from Washington inform us
that the balance of the seventy-fite million
loan advertised for by Mr. Chase, of which
thirty-three millions were not accepted, has
been withdrawn from the market. Gold has
fallen, some fifty per^ cenesince the resigna
tion.
It seems now a conceded fact that Mr. Fes
senden has accepted the Secretaryship, and
we may look for a radical change in financial
affairs
An Apceal in Behalf of Pennsylvania's
Slek and Wounded Soldiers.
We print, to-day, a proclamation from Gov
erner Curtin, appealing to the people of Penn
sylvania fot means and material to relieVe the
sick and wounded soldiers of the State, now
suffering in every hospital in the country.
The different agents of the State write that
our soldiers—our sons and brothers—in many
instances are absolutely suffering for the need
of comforts and nutriments essential to their
recovery. In the midst of the gathering
plenty of our harvests, surrounded with lav
ish luxuries and incalculable abundance, the
wonder of our people will be that the appeal
should have been so long postponed, as each
man and woman strives to excel in the gener
osity, of their contributions., „1.
There must be no time wasted' in words on
this subject. What is needed is a perusal of
the Executive appeal, and then ,that practical
response which will achieve the relief required.
Independence Day.
The return of the 4th day of ;July, 1864,
marks the Eighty-eighth anniversary of Amer
ican Independence. The day demands such
notice and respect, as will, we trust, have
their influence in the suppression of all busi- .
noes, and a titan of the - hearts of the Ameri
can people in that homage which is due to an
occasion which is invested with so much in
terest, and still fraught with all that is to
make history grand and memorable in the fu
ture. The independence of the American
people, as they emerged from a colonial ex
istence to that of the condition- of a Union
composed of sovereign commonwealths, was
achieved only by the shedding of rivers of
blood, and the sacrifice of vast treasures.—
Those who surrendered their lives and
made those sacrifices deemed the cost
small for the great work accomplished.—
Our fathers were willing to incur those expenses
for what they deemed the certainty of being
able to bequeath • the principle and the prostage
of a free government to their posterity, there
by creating an asylum for the oppressed of
all nations, and a home for the "free and
the brave" of all climes. What our fathers
aimed at, would have been solidly and surely
accomplished, had the antagonisms to freedom
been entirely lianished from the compact into
which they then entered for a perfect Union
and the security of a structure based upon
the principle of self-government. • Erecting a
great Republic on foundations whereon it vas
oonceded the elements of a barbarism rested,
was the total error of those who fondly and
patriotically but not wisely organized the
first workings of the Americfm. Union.
Had provision been made for the extinction
• of-slavery—had the barbarous relio of a then
past age and a repudiated regime been even
by
,impncation repudiated, the generation
which is now struggling with a fierce con
spiracy, would have been spared its sacrifices,
and, undisturbed by passion or war, would
have presented the grandest specta'cle of a
—free government the world ever beheld. But
let us not reproach the omissions of the past
out of which grew the gigantic error of the
present. If our fathers failed in their duty to
freedom, it was because they did not and
could not then fairly comprehend what "do
inestie servitude" or slavery meant. We gave
to slavery the force wherewith to organize the
.rebellion in which its minions' are now
engaged. We pampered its upholders and
encouraged their pretensions. 'And now, con
fronted by their fierce passions, it is our duty
S.) conquer and extinguish the upholders of
slavery, or to be conquered and extinguished
in turn, by the influence of that institution.
—A year ago, we fondly anticipated that
the return of another 4th of holy would wit
ness the nation at peace, with_ its . enemies
conquered by its authorities, with its armies
fwd nubs victorious, and with its govern.
ment in operation in all the States. Disap
pointed in our anticipation so far as actual
peace is concerned, we do not lack confidence
in the strength, virtue and valor of those who
are eventually to accomplish these sublime
results. Our faith in the sanctity of freedom
and the.majesty of a free government, gives us
that confidence in the final result, which will
heriaftei ada additional to our Fourth
of July. Even if the battle is waged until
the return of another anniversary of our na
tional independence, and another return is
added to that, we still believe that the vic
tory will be with those who are for freedom.
God might as Weil be expected to — ebauge one
of the immutable laws by which he preserves
the harmony and working - of His creation, as
the American people to yield a subversion by
which their form of Government would be
impaired, their progress in political greatness
and glory impeded, or their physical and ter
ritorial development obstructed! We are
now struggling for a more perfect independ
ence than that declared July 4th, 1776. When
that is achieved, as. God has decreed it shall
be, then indeed Will Independence Day mean
what it implies, and the stars and stripes be
come in reality the emblem of a nation that
is free!
The Sick and Wounded In the Military
Hospitals.
The casualties in the fearful battles waging
in Virginia, adding immensely to the num
ber of the sick and wounded soldiers in the
military hospitals of Washington city, George
town and Alexandria, Va. Among these are
a very large number of Pennsylvanians.
When it is considered that the localities of
these hospitals are easy of egress for railroad
trains and steamboats, and that the connec
tion between those points and others in the
rural districts of Pennsylvania is direct and
certain, a petition for the removal df at least
the sick and wounded soldiers of Pennsylva
nia deserves the serious attention of the Sec
retary of War and the Surgeon General. We
do not pretend to assert that the inmates of
our military hospitals are not treated with all
the care a soldier has a right to expect; but so
ninny of our braves were wounded before they
had learned all the duties of a soldier that to
them the treatment of the hospital is about
as rough as the practices in the entrenchment
or the dangers in the open held. Hence, a
large per centage of the deaths in the hospi
tals is due to the treatment which patients re
ceive. Many a valuable life might be saved,
if proper nursing were insured—if pure air
and light were had—if palatable food could be
provided—if cleanliness and cheerfulness,
and devotion and affection were bestowed on
the suffering hero. These are not peculiar to
the ordinary military hospitals. We do not
care how assiduous or how liberal the Gov
ernment may be, how vigilantly it may super
vise the action of its subordinates, the wound
ed in a general hospital are certain to suffer
more or less, if not of actual neglect, at least
of inability or inexperience on the part of
those charged with their care. We are not
condemning the Government, when we allude
to these facts: But is it not better that both
the Government and the people should un
derstand the true facts, that a proper remedy
may at once be applied?
There now comes up to us in our mountain
retreats and our homes in the valleys, a cry
of suffering intense and agonizing. It is the
voices of our brothers, of the fathers and the
sons of the State of Pennsylvania, who went
forth ardent and valorous, full of hope and
patriotism, to do battle in defence of the honor,
the integrity and the perpetuity of the Na
tional Government. They knew why they
buckled on their armor—they had counted
the cost and were prepared for the fearful risk,
satisfied that those who were left behind would
be faithful to their memory icthey fell, and
still more faithful to their persons if the
chances of war left them as wrecks on the
beach of the country's glory and greatness.
"I will be faithful to you in death, and true
•to you in suffering," were the last works spo
ken by many a loving wife and sweetheart of
Pennsylvania, as they bid adieu to their sol
dier husband and lover. "Your home will be
ever open to receive you, dead or alive," was
the assurance given by many a fond parent,
as sons marched gaily out into the rough road
which led to where their country's foes stood
arrayed for battle. The time has arrived for
the fulfillment of these pledges, and in the
name of the people of Pennsylvania—in the
name of sacred affection and holy love—
in the name of those whose hearts now yearn
for husbands and sons and lovers, we implore
those who have authority in the charge of the
hospitals at once to make arrangements for the
removal of the sick aral wounded of all the States
to their homes. We write now, more particu
larly for our own, our suffering Pennsylvania
heroes, but humanity dictates that we should
include in that appeal all who are- suffering
in the military hospitals. It is not possible
that the Government can properly care for
its wounded defenders. , Whatever may be its
arrangements—whatever the extent of its lav
ish expenditures—whatever its vigilance, the
wounded soldier in the hospital is in danger
of suffering, and every groan wrung from a
veteran by such neglect is a curse to the nation
and a disgrace to the Government. Home is
the proper abode for the wounded soldier.
Home, particularly for those who belong to
Pennsylvania and States as easy of ingress
from Washington city ; and when we write
"home," we do not mean exactly the circum
scribed precincts of that sacred abode ; but
anywhere and everywhere in the State, where
a larder is full, a hearthstone clean, and the
hearts of the family pure and patriotic, the
soldier of the Keystone has now and ever
will have, a home
The people of Pennsylvani a want their
wounded. This is a plain and practical desire.
All over the State—in the Cumberland Valley,
rich with its ripening crops—in the counties
washed by the Delaware and the Schuylkill—
in the district watered.by the Susquehanna—
along the Lehigh and the Juniata—in fact, in
every locality penetrable by railroad trains or
steamboats, the people of Pennsylvania are
464104 wild to relieve and succor and
nurse and restore to service, or retain and
support the wounded heroes of the State. If
the Government will at once enter on some
arrangement by which the removal of the sick
and wounded capable of transportation can
be secured from Washington to points in
Pennsylvania, it will do humanity such a ser
vice as no nation ever rendered, and, create a
feeling at home from which incalculable ben
fits will be derived. By this process more
soldiers will be restored to the service than
could be raised by the draft in double 6,
length of time consumed by their removal
here and back again to the army. Anywhere
thid State, the wounded would receive at
tentions which could not fail in their restora
tion. In the military hospitals such restora
tion has become a matter of chance, in which
all is against the recovery of the soldier. The
heat of a crowded building—the absence of
all but the dull routine of purely professional
care--the atmosphere of the dying--the con
stant accession of the suffering, all combine
to render the condition of the wounded ex
cruciating and terrible.
We trust that the authorities here and the
people all over the State, will at once petition
the War Department on this subject. The
sight of a blade of green grass—the odor of a
familiar flower—the consciousness of being
once more at home, will do many a poor man
gled, or fever heated, worn and weary soldier
more good, than all the Surgery and medicine
which the Yegulations prescribe. If a peti
tion for their removal is properly prese,ted
to the Secretary of War, he dare not refuse
the appeal—and if he did, he would be over
whelmed with the groans of the dying and the
curses of the living. We want our wounded
at home! God help the poor fellows, they
want to come home! What nobler appeals
than those should be needed to elicit the favor
able responses of those in authority?

NEW Tong, July 3,
Special dispatches from the headquarters of
Gen. Grant's army record the return of Gen.
Kautz with the loss of many men, horses,
twelve guns and wagon trains.
The expedition was most successful in the
destruction of the Danville and Weldon rail
road, mills and an immense amount of rebel
property. On returning they were over
whelmingly attacked by Fits Hugh Lee and
Hampton's cavalry and infantry. Our cavalry
repulsed them several times but they were fi
nally surrounded and the retreat of the wagon
trains and artillery cut off. Orders were then
given to retreat, which was effected through
a dense woods and march.
The artillery was spiked and the wagons
burned. It was reported that the sixth army
corps had vigorously attacked the rebels and
retaken some of the guns—another dispatch
states that eight guns were recaptured by the
sixth corps and that the division occasioned
by the movement of the second and sixth
corps enabled Gen. Wilson to defeat the rebel
cavalry and reach our any, with consider
able leas. •
A letter from the 18th corps, gives the de
tails of what was intended as a surprise to the
rebels by Gen. Baldy Smith, which, however,
owing to disobedience of orders by, Barton's.
brigade, resulting in nothing but drawing a
heavy artillery and musketry fire from the
rebels.

Jung 29-10 F.
At length Wilson's cavalry expedition which
marched nine days with the purpose of de
stroying the Danville railroad has been heard
from, through other than rebel sources.
. Capt. Whittaker of Wilson's staff with an
escort of forty men left the head of the re
turning column at 'Wm's Station on the Wel
don road fifteen miles below Petersburg early
this morning, and reached Meade's headquar
ters at 11 A. M.
He slashed his way thrOugh a column of
rebel infantry which was moving down to in
tercept our cavalry, losing in the dash 25 of
his 40, but he got through. Wilson's com
mand consists of his own and Kautz's
divisions.
'Not halting on the way to more than tem
porarily break the Weldon road, which he did
at Reim's Station, he moved rapidly to Enrkes
ville the intersection of the Danville and
Richmond and-the Petersburg and L,ynchburg
roads, 80 miles from Richmond—then to the
work of destruction with all the might of thou
sands of active men.
Up to this time he met but little opposition.
With Headquarters at Burksville, he de
spatched commands in each of the four direc
tions where lay a railroad. In this way on
the Danville road he burned bridges 40 miles
apart, and thoroughly destroyed to the burning
Of every tie and twisting of every rail, some
twenty miles between.
On the Petersburg and Lynchburg road he
utterly destroyed 30 miles and fired bridges
out of that distance.
Ile'turned to come back when he met skir
mitihing right, left, front and rear, but noth
ing riot-easily-ridden through until last night
at Stony creek, on the Weldon road 18 miles
below here.
The enemy had concentrated in front and
themselves attacked late in the afternoon, and
a severe engagement ensued, lasting into the
night. He met the same force that had been
-dealing with Sheridan north of Richmond.
The result does not seem to have been de
cisive, although the losses sustained and in
flicted were large. During last night he turn
ed the enemy's flank coming in between him
and Petersburg, preferring that to the other
flank and a longer march.
So far as the force he - had been fighting is
concerned, the-moire Seems to have been suc
cessful. He eluded it, .and would have reached
our.lines by noon but for the rebel infantry
column which Capt. Whittaker discovered
and rode through. • •
Gen Meade ordered the Sixth Corps as an
offset to the rebel infantry, to march to Wil
son's• support, and such of Sheridan's cavalry
as had come up, to hasten in that direction.
The Sixth Corps marched early in the after
noon, dives-ed of all impediinents, stripped
for marching and fighting.
Such is the situation as far-as heard from,
but the collision has doubtless, already been
precipitated. We shall hear from it to
morrow.
