FOR PRESIDENT, Albitahani Lincoln, Or ILLINOIS. FOR VICE PRESIDENT. Andrew Johnson, Latest from Hagerstown. IN THE WooOs, Two MILER NORTH OF H&GEBSTOWN . July 8, 1864. About one hundred and eighty picked guer rillas from Imboden and Moseby's command, under Maj. Davis, entered Hagerstown at 5 o'clock this A. M. They• are robbing the stores, and have fired the engine house Thurston's warehouse and a pile of about 200 tons of Government hay. They intend burn ing Zeller & Co.'s warehouse] and threaten to burn the town. The turn table of the rail road is not yet disturbed. The rebels are heavily laden with plunder pilfered from men, women and children.— They started a squad of about twenty out the Greencastle road and fifty out the Leiters burg pike, it is supposed to meet . any. force which the flames of the burning town might attract to its rescue. .The rebel General Dreausland, with his bri gade, was at William - sport this morning.— Scouts from that direction report the indica tions in his camp that he will leave there this morning. A high wind is blowing and the flames are reported to me, by fugitives from Hagerstown, to be rapidly spreading through other portions of the.town. I have no communication with M'Lean.— [it is fair to suppose that M'Lean, with his forces, has encountered the twenty guerrillas sent out from Hagerstown towards Green castle, as he must be somewhere on the road between those two localities.—En. TEL.]. LATER No communication has yet been had from the force sent out by Gen. Couch, under com raimd of Lieut. M'Lean, from Greencastle. STILL LATER At 11 o'clock, A. M., to-day, dense volumes of smoke were observed to continue to rise from Hagerstown. This act of incendiarism is regarded as a base violation of all the rules of war, as the people of Hagerstown yester day paid $20,000 and contributed 1,600 out- Ate, as a subsidy to relieve the town from pil lage or destruction. • The force sent out by Gen. Couch from Greencastle under Lt. McLean, has been heard from. He is in a position to,operate ef fectually against the foraging squads of rebels now plundering the vicinity of Hagerstown. THE VERY LATEST FROM HA.GERS TO TOWN. • IN TEE WOODS, 3 Mums FROM }LAGERS- !. TOWN, July 8-12 M. the latest information from Hagerstown is to the effeot that the main body of the rebels which entered that place this morning have retired, it is supposed, south across the Pelo tas°, leaving a few stragglers in the town. A Tlinely and Sensible Order. General Couch has just issued an order, directing that neither horses or wagons be permitted to pass east from the Cumber land Valley, over the Susquehanna river. This order is well-timed and sensible. The people or the Cumberland Valley, or at least the able-bodied men who, mounted on'horsee, have been riding into Harrisburg within the pist three days, should show a disposition to curtain at home and arm for the protection of their lives and property. If they did this, there would be no trouble in raising troops for their relief and defence. As it is, even now hundreds and thousands of men are °Tering their services to march into the Cumberland Valley to meet the enemy. But we-submit whether it is encouraging to such as these, as they enter Harrisburg from all parts of the • State, - tli"nteet swarms of able men from: and stalwart en the Cumberland Val ley, shrinking, it were, to risk a•• peril in the defence of their own homes. —We heartily , commend the order , of Gen. Goneh. It will have a tenderiCy . to 'Stay panic, and assure the people of the neoessity of.or- Midi:loer home protection. Let all, then, who are at home in the Cumberland Valley, prepare there to meet and net Ape from up advanoing . enemy. And let all, too, who have lied from the valley, at once :return to their homes. . „Get Your Substitintes. There Is very. little doubt that we shall Hoc* have.another zalt ironi the President for 'at least - three hundred thousand men; whether for one, two or three years,. we cannot say. The 'quotas will be estimated by States; dis tricts and wards as lieretiffore. Now, 'in iew of the certainty of this dr4l,'We Would suggOst to .those who have the means to spare, to get a Substitute while they - may..ire had at reasonable rates. They cant• be seemed note at three to four hundred dollars each, while subsequent to the draft they will range from slight hundred to one thousand. In this man ner. tholo):"'„WIto are wealthy can relieve those ofleasStr-Mes,uti by filling up the quotas of their respective wards. The system is already behrwedgited in .New Yorkptand belagiformed in which substitutes are being 106filWatig. placed u ,ti? service EIRE Form Home Guards. We hopli Our citizens will at once go to work and form Hoine Guards for the protec tion of their families and property. Let every .. man capable of bearhig arms enroll himself under a suitable leader for the protection of his homeand fireside. We have no time to lose. The rebels hate returned to Hagers town, and notwithstanding they had made a solemn agreement not to disturb the property if the required amount of money and outfits were produced, they burnt a large portion of the town. -- We have a large numher of strangers in the city who have come here for protection. Let them also be required to shoulder a musket— and if this be done we shall be able to repel any cavalry raid that mighf,be inadathis way. We hope that a general meeting will be called at the Court House and that uniform measures be at once adopted for our protec tion. Let every business man close his store or shop at 5 or 6 o'clock and connect himself and his employees with companies to defend the city. Some mode ought also be adopted, which would prevent similar scenes as we have wit nessed for the last two days in this city. It seems that a large portion of the able-bodied men residing in the Cumberland Valley, have left their hoines and firesides; we have seen more able-bodied men with wagons and horses, than they numbered animals. This is a dis grace to themselves and cruel treatment to their families, who have been left to the ten der mercies of a ruthless mob and guerrillas. These men are now lounging on the street corners, discussing the probabilities of the rebels coming here, and finding fault with the government in not protecting their homes which they have disgracefully left. A man that is not willing to protect himself is cer tainly not entitled to the aid of his neighbors, and we advise all such to go home without delay and preserve their manhood. Volunteer or Draft. It is useless to disguise the fact, that the Government must have troops to re-inforce our armies in the field. The people must de cide whether the troops are to be furnished by volunteering or the draft. Heretofore, owing to the defectsin the law on the subject, con scription was rendered ineffectual for practi cal purposes. The law, as it existed, afforded the very easiest and sure means of avoiding its own requirements; so that while the Gov ernment was expending large sums of money to secure soldiers, it required only the disburse bursement of a comparatively small sum to evade conscription. Every candid man saw the folly of such proceedings. It was admit ted on aH sides, that if the war was to be con ducted successfully, these defects in the con scription law must be amended. Hence, Con gress, at its last session, passed a law suffi ciently stringent for all practical purposes. Under the provisions of this law, so far as the Government is concerned, the citizen capable of service in the field, is confronted with the alternative either to enlist or be drafted. The Government will no longer commute services in the army for money. What it wants, What it must have, are soldiers to fight its - battles. If these fail •to volunteer, then the citizen must submit to a draft. At this juncture in tiddevelopments of the conflict there is but. one alternative left the citizen, namely, to go into the stibstitute market and finds man not liable for draft, and still capable of service, who will represent him in the army. It is no pleasing task for the authorities to enforce a draft. If the President could 'con trol the busineis otrecruiting our armies, we feel certain that he mould prefer, to fill up their decimated ranks by volunteering. But if the people neglect, from apathy or indifference, to volunteer, and if the people intend that the authority of this government must be main. tained, then a draft becomes inevitable. There is no possible chance of avoiding the draft, unless the people volunteer, Perhaps it would have been better had the law been so framed as to compel ail to enter the arms', when drafted, who were capable of service: Indeed, we believe it will yet come to this.— We incline to the notion that when the Euro pean sympathizers with the slaveholdersure convinced that they need men, they will begin to furnish the rebel armies with these, as they have already furnished them with all the rm. cessary supplies to conduct their hellish work. When' such a, dilemma occurs, then we will need the services of all our fighting men. But would it not be better to fight against such'tin occurrence by speedily ending the war in the complete triumph of our anus negating the Tax Law. • . Two fanners in Eunterdon, New Jerse y, undertook to resist the collection of the inter nal revenue tax by refusing to pay"it. The consequenee was they were indicted, plead guilty, and each had to pay a fine of $5OO. The amount of tax which they refused to pay was one dollar. A man that undertakes to resist the Federal laws, when properly exe cuted, will always come out of the contest second best. And yet , we need not be sur prised to heSr of repeated instances of these attempts to resist the law. Simply because the - conductor of every copperhead news paper in the country is now laboring to in eitethe ignorant portion o.the community to Oppose the legal authorities. Tndeed, the copperhead leaders seem to have no purpose in view now but to provoke a collision be tween a portion of theniasses of the, loyal States and the Government. The Huntingdon emigres:tonal District. The contest for the Union nomination for Congress, in the - ./Inntin i gg(in Congressional District, is very spirreed.

The Deseret Xews (organ of Brigham Young at Great Salt, Lake City) has a long story about the expulsion of 0 go T won elder from the company of the "saints." The elder in question is Walter M. Gibson, formerly knoWn as Captain Gibson. It seems that he arrived in Utah, on his way to the Malay Islands, in the fall of 1859. He, was out of funds,' but managed to secure them by lecturing' upon "Oceardca." course of lime he sought baptism, and was soon Elder Gibson. He went down to the Pacific coiSt, lectured, at. San Francisco, and was accused of being a Mormon, bat denied it. Finally he. reached the Sandwich Islaridß, and soon inade his presence felt among the natives, and was rapidly making a "good thing" out of them, when a committee from Utah went ont 44 in vestigate his acts. They found him, living-in clover, possessing,aores+of hind by thousands, his sheep by the Sarnefignres, and his horses and cattle, geese and turkeys in droves. But, more than all this. he dispenaed - MOribon offices and titles.' He had ordained honts-ot Kitnehareeha'd subjects as apostles, high priests, "seventies, elders - and everything else; and even the women received from his hand the hisnors of priestesses and other ti-: ties that his dinning suggeit to touch their veneration; while be touched their pro perty. Our Mormon delegation visited him andiemonstrated with him;- but he couldn't see it; and suggested tothem the propriety of a speedy . departure, A/ few hints of Lynch law by the newly converted natives accelerated their departure„ Tthe'lfAws: aitiouoneoles ,the,:tltOkincsi: ifIX4-.the Ant tine in the history. of this MM=M I movement that we have known of dark days in distant missions; but we need not tell Elie saints that those days have gone past forever. It is with much satisfaction that we can lock" back upon the past and 'contemplate through what the church has passed and see to-day, :the ocertain overthrow of evil.
