THE SITUATION.
The city still continues to be filled and agi
tated by rumors, received from fugitives as
they arrive here from the Cumberland Val
ley. While we desire to give credence and
ciroulation to all reports worthy of considera
eon, it is of course our duty to be cautious in
creating increased alarm in sections already
con : raised-with panic. One of the most start
ling reports of the morning is to the effect,
that the rebel pickets had advanced within
two miles of Greencastle, and that a consid
'arable party had proceeded with precipitate
haste in the direction of Bedford. But to
show the uncertain character of these rumors,
brought to this city by intelligent fugitives,
we had - communication with Greencastle at
12 z. to-day, the operator at that point refer
ring in - his dispatches neither to the approach
or the appearance of the rebels in that vi
cinity. The most reliable of the reports re
ceived by telegraph, however, is to the - effect
that the rebels still hold Hagerstown,. and
that, from all accounts, they had withdrawn
the force they threw out yesterday as far as
Middleburg: The statement now is that they
hold Hagerstown as if they were waiting the
approach of reinforcements; and, indeed, this
is corroborated by the fact that last night
two signal rockets were discharged at Hagers
town. This of course indicates that enforcing
parties are in close proximity, and that move
ments would be made early this morning, of
whicli we are not advised, or that demon
strations will be made during the day, to be
supported by the parties thus signalled.
Coh Samuel B. Thomas, one of the aids of
Gov..Curtin, was dispatched this morning to
Harper 's Ferry, with instructions to look after
and report to the State Government, the con
dition and wants of the Pennsylvania regi
ments stationed at that post. He is an effi
cient officer, and will discharge faithfully the
duty to -which he has been thus assigned.
Major General Cadwallader telegraphed a
stirring and a characteristic appeal, from his
headquarters in this city, to-day, to the people
of Philadelphia and vicinity, earnestly urging
them to respond to the call of the Governor
for troops to join in the State defence,. The
unbounded confidence with which Gen. Cad
wallader is regarded at home, and his popuz .
tufty with, the troops and people in
.Philadel
ptda, will give to his appeal a mighty influ
ence, and elicit such a response as cannot fail
101,1
ments called for the defence of the State.
A dispatch received in this city, by the
cashier of the Harrisburg Bank, from the
cashier of the Chambersburg Bank, states
that information had been received at Cham
bersburg, through reliable individuals, of the
evacuation of Hagerstown this morning by
the rebels. It is supposed by the people who
still linger about Chambersburg, that demon
strations have been made by our forces, in
the lower part• of the valley, which has led to
this hasty movement
—Dispatches received at headquarters cor
roborate the news as to the evacuation of Ha
gerstown, and add that the rebels are evidently
retiring along the Potomac in the direction of
Shepherdstown. Shepherdstown is near one
of Siebest fords on the Potorcac, easily cov
ered on the south side. The last dispatch
from the operator at Greencastle states that
he was about proceeding to the State Line,
and thence to Hagerstown, in order to open
up telegraphic communication.
Tas CaciPs IN WEsmax MARYLAND 'are re
presented to be in a deplorable condition, the
country being almost reduced -to a parched
state, there having been -no rain of conse
queues since the last of May. The tobacco.
and corn crops will be very trifling. So burned
and hardened is the surface that turnips,
buckwheat, &c., cannot be sown. Corn be
ing - SW a barrel, some idea may be gathered
of the sufferings of the poor.. Referring to
this condition of affairs in Maryland, the
Washington Chronicle says that things look
as if the wealthy classes of our city may be
more loudly - called upon to aid those in the
region around about us who have habitually
ad,ministered to our , creature comforts in sup
plying our markets than for the more preten
tious calls from afar off. In this connection
it may be stated that negro hands are con
stantly leaving their masters' service in Ma
ryland., • •
Tux COPPERHEAD Pans is now sorely exer
cised and is toiling to lash the public into indig
nation about the emptiest of hollow abstrac
tions. The point fiercely insisted upon is,
that Mr. Lincoln must not refuse •to welcome
back the South with slavery. But the South
does not offer to s educe back with slavery.
Not the slighest particle of evidence exists
that she makes such an offer. When evidence
to this effect is shown, thr it will be in or
der to discuss the mooted question. Till
then, all that is prizited?Wsaid in hostility to
the President's position; is to no practical
purpose,.except to help the enemy by assail
ing the Government. This is transparently
the sole object in view by those persons that,
since, the peace farce at Niagara, can talk of
little except what they gratuitously designate
as "the President's ultimatum." •
A }izzoßT reaches us from Texas that Union
saiMinextts are gaining rapidly in that State,
and that in Northern Tains there are: already
ton lodges of Union Leaguers, _ whia .are
very awiititly* and oaatiously but 'constantly
inoromin the# =Oen. •
The Effect of the Draft on Men Actually
in Service.
It is important to those who are entering
the service of the National Government, as
soldiers, to understand, that when a man is in
the army, regularly mustered into the _United
.
States service, he is not subject to the reiquire
meats of the draft made during the term of
his enlistment. This decision does not ap
ply to the men entering the State service
for any emergency ; nor offect those
who merely put themselves under arms for
local duty. It only applies to men who are
regularly mustered into the United States
service, without regard to the term for which
they have enlisted. Hence the men who are
in the one hundred days" organizations, are
not subject to the dritft. They are already in
the service, and can ho More .be drafted than
the veterans who are in the field.
The 25th Judicial District.
The Conferees of the Twenty-fifth Judicial
District, composed of Beaver, Butler and
Lawrence, assembled in New Castle on the
25th inst., and nominated Hon. L. L. 11.'Goffin
as a candidate for President Judge of that Dis
trict. Judge M'Goilin was appointed by Gov.
Curtin to fill the vacancy created in that Ju
dicial District by the , election of Hon.
Daniel Agnew to a place on the Supreme
Court bench of the State. The nominee is
spoken of by gentlemen who are thoroughly
acquainted with his. character as a man and
ability as a jurist, to be one which will be
unanimously supported by the intelligent vo
ters of that district.
HA.FER'S iharzuv, for August 13, contains
the usual fling at Pennsylvania, in which the
New York journals all delight to indulge, in the
shape of an illustration intended tondicule our
agricultural friends, who have suffered so much
from rebel invasion. It represents an old
farmer, surrounded by boxes filled with fowls,
his furniture Packed on a . . wagon, with horses
attached, all ready to be conveyed to a place
of Safety. At the door of the farm house is
represented a chap dressed in thetoggery of the
city, at whom the old farmer evidently gazes
as if he had seen him before; and we venture
to assert that if pictures could '"talk" the old
fanner in Irarier's Weekly would reconize in
the figure beside him as it is represented
in the picture, one of the New York pick
pockets or burglars who came to the Cumber
land Valley a year ago, in the uniform of
Federal soldiers, to steal and destroy more
than ever was taken or destroyed Veaving out
of the list Chamliersburg) by the rebels. We
advise liarper's Weekly to try another illustra
tion of a Nei" York regiment filling •,its camp
chests with the clothing of women and chil
dren, and carrying the same home as trophies
of war.

WHAT REBELLION IB„DOING FOB SLATZWZ.-
The Nashville Unit»; says: "The colored regi
ments reviwed last Wednesday were composed
of stout, able-bodied, athletic men, in the
prime and vigor of life. There was- not one
amongst them who, is 1860, would not have
brought, as a slave, 61,000 on the block I No
the rebels who saw theta grated their
teeth and muttered curses. They saw mil
t
lions of dollars worth of human chattels, re
deemed and disenthraled, enlisted in patri
otic service, in striking contrast With their
cold-blooded treason. .
Wrra a most sublime -assurance; the New
York News declared that "excepting 'the few
'soldiers of fanaticism, who, under any cir
cumstances, would support a war for the
abandonment of slavery, every soldier of the
North, who is not controlled in the exercise
of his elective fianchiffe by his superiork
will vote fOr a peace candidate, if any be
nominated."
Sze's=Aar rESSENDIUT, it - is said, expresses
much gratification at the manner in which
the new loan is,-being taken by the people.
Returns are, as yet, received from but com
paratively few points, but the aggregate ra-
'pcirted officially, and unofficially is , already
over ten raillions of dollars.

now exceed eight hundred.
All prisoners previously taken by M'Cook
were abandoned. About five hundred mules
were shot by him before Ransom captured

Gen. McCook was successful in breaking
the Macon road, and capturing and destroying
a wagon and railroad train.
He also captured seventy-two officers and
thirty-five men, but was obliged to let them
