A ,gen tleman from Papertewn, Cumberland 'county, informed us about noon yesterday that when he left home the road was full of wagons filled with people fleeing with - their household goods, from foes who were supposed to be near their homes. They were nearly all from Adams county, and reported the enemy in the iviciai ties of, Gettysburg and Cashtown. Mr. M., from-whom we derived the information, stated to us that he bad the information as•to the whereabouts of the enemy from a reliable gen tleman who had it from another reliable gen tleman—but neither of them had seen a rebel. Frederick City is said to have been in pos session of the -butternuts on the -21st, -or at least that some of them passed through it.— They were not in great force, and it is even represented that the first marandingbandivere attacked and driven out by some of our troops under Major Cole. Some say that a battle de imminent at Chamberaburg any day unless the rebels disperse into small squads and keep out of reach of our troops_ They are said to have driven of some 2,000 cattle and as many horses from Franklin county. They keep continually on the move, so that their exact position at any given time is not known. Gen. Jenkins, with 8 - force of mounted infantry 1100 strong; is said- to be moving towards Gettysburg, and. doing much mischief. He is said to have de -signs on-the Northern Central railroad_ Where Gen_ Hooker and his army arc no -body seems to know. Milroy's defeat by Gen. Ewell at Winchester was complete, terminating, says the NM Her ald, in a disastrous retreat to Martinsburg and Harper's Ferry, with only 2,000 men out of 2,000, and having lost all the artillery, stores, baggage and everything except Whitt the men .carried on their persons. Three entire batte iea of field artillery and one battery of siege guns, about 280 wagons, over 1200 horses and mules, all the commissary and quartermaster's stores and ammunition of all kinds, over 6,000 muskets and small arms without stint, the private baggage of the officers and men, 826311 into the hands of the enemy. There was a rumor last evening that Gettye burg was occupied by the rebels and that the people of Adams county were flying in all di rections. Just before going to press we re cieved a dispatch from the operator at Gettys burg, who says that there were no rebels there, nor could they hear of any in that vieintiy, so thst tip) mart was a mere were, and had no foundation in fact. From dispatches received here last evening, sent by reliable parties, it is ascertained that the rebels are moving in force on Chambers burg. For farther news see telegraphic dispatches, In another column_ And Still They Come. It is much to the credit of our youth and middle-aged citizens that in this emergency they come forward in vast numbers at the call of the Governor to drive back the rebel in vaders of our soil. We do not yet believe that Harrisburg is in any immediate or even remote danger—but Some of the border counties have been invaded by smell parties of rebels who ought to be driven back, or, if possible, cap tured. Heavier bodies may be behind them, and the intention of Lee may be ultimately to pay us a damaging visit, and even carry the war to the Delaware. In this view we are glad to see the ready response of our own gal lant militia, as well as those from our sister States. Fresh bodies of troops are arriving every day. Fund For Wounded Soldiers. At the recent monstor Democratic Mass Convention held at Springfield, 111., $50,000 were raised in a`feW minutes as a fund for wounded soldiers. What Villainous copper heads they must be. Have all the mianamed Union Leagues in the country done half as much! Politics In France—The Elections CO*. woken by the Emperor. With what.;instice the following address of the Count de Montalembert to the electors of p rcno h district, in reply to certain Govern ment proclamations, may be applied to ithe ad ministration end administration party in thiS country, we refer to the.judguant of all im partial -and intelligent citizens. "pro gramme"—comprised in three words. "peace, economy and liberty"—is precisely the pro gramme of all truly patriotic Americans to day. What he says in reference to the require ments of the Emperor and. his party, to wit, that they weut, " &patio daaile and resolved •to do everything the :Emperor tells them," is irrecisely what is now required by the party In power at Washington—" unquestioning sup •port." Those who are not blind, or resolved to maintain the imbecile and despotic adminis tration of Lincoln at-all sacrifices of constitu tional freedom, cannot fail to be struck, upon reading the following.address, of the similarity of the condition of the people of the United States living, nominally, under a written Con stitution, with that of the people of France under imperial sway. Montalembert says ELECTORS: Official and other documents charge the Catholic and Liberal candidate with wishing to " paralyze the energies of France, to imperil her security at home as well as her legitimate influence abroad, to give up the country to hazard to pave the way for fresh revolutions, to disturb and endanger the em pire." In a word, he who, during ten years represented you is, according to these docu ments, a Matt of disorder and revolution, My whole life is one long contradiction to the ca lumny. I never attempted to overthrow any government; I never had a hand in any con spiracy, never figured in any adventure, never applauded any revolt, and never profited by any revolution. lam driven to declare that among the servants and the panegyrists of the empire there are not many who can say as much. The whole of what they tell you amounts to this: You must name deputies do cile and resolved to do everything the Empe ror tells them. If this be so, the shortest way is to suppress the Legislative Corps altogether; for if it be composed only of salaried appro vers it is but a costly and useless piece of ma chinery; its suppression will simplify matters and reduce the amount of the budget. The Emperor will be very well able to go on alone. He has no need of a crowd of advisers all paid to be always of his opinion. But the Emperor himself one4ay said that "his government needed control and publicity," and the country has taken him at kis word. The whole of France is at this moment shaking of its sleep. In all directions she is calling back to public life men of whom I feel pride and honor to be the friend—Thiers, Defoure, Borryer, o,llllm Barrot. These are men who have given proofs of independence and patriotism in the most stormy times, and therefore the more competent to exercise sal utary control in times of calm. They have all responded to the call and come forward as candidates. Not one of them has put forth pretensions incompatible with the maintenance of the empire, though all have demanded the rights which France long possessed, and which sooner or later she will obtain from those who have the honor to govern her. Like them, and with them, I demand less of taxation and more of liberty, fewer conscripts and greater con trol, less of arbitrary rule and more of re sponsibility, less police and more discussion. My programme is comprised in three words. I want three things as necessary to the coun try as they are advantageous to the govern ment, viz: peace, economy and liberty. CH- DR MONTAVEMBERT. Governors . Seymour and Parker. The New York Commereia2 Adsktrilser, a YG=7 decided administration paper, contains a short editorial, which is in very strong contrast with the remarks of several haw and servile Aboli tion papers in our own State. We take plea sure in recording just and generous sentiments from whatever source they may come, and therefore we give this leading New York Abo lition journal the benefit of our columns for disseminating its remarks, which we commend to the consideration of the ultras of the State who have been unsparing of their denuncia tions of Governors Seymour and Parker. The Advertiser says : - , We should be guilty of a great injustice were we not to give due credit to the Governors of this. State and New Jersey for their zeal and promptitude in this crisis. When danger was impending, neither of them had conditions to propose or terms to exact. The only question was who could first and most effectually dis charge his duty as the ruler of a free and loyal commonwealth. They make use of no 'if,' 'and' or 'but.' In the case of New Jersey, in deed, Governor Parker calls upon the people to come to the rescue 'with unprecedented Thq genduct of these officials will be more cordially appreciated, inasmuch as they do net belong to the political party to which the national reins of authority have been com mitted. It is very possible that by referring to the past we might find that such men as Governors Seymour and Parker have taken po sitions not to our liking ; but as the deeds of. to-day are of more importance than the sayings of yesterday, we prefer to make conduct rather than professions the teat in judging the merits or demerits of our public servants." Oar Nominees. The popular heart is so deeply stirred against the iniquities and mismanagement of the present dominating party, and so deter mined to have a change of nil ers, that we feel the utmost cunfidence in the election of the Demo cratic candidates for Governor and Supreme Judge, in spite of all the influence whop posi tion, money and force give to our opponets. We have an advantage in our candidates which it seems to us impossible for the Aboli tionists to overcome. They are both honest and capable men, and no men nominated by a party controlled by speculators, peculators and fanatics are likely to be either one or the other. We have nominated men who, if elected, will prove an honor to the State—men who will maintain the just constitutional rights of the State and the citizens of the State against every attempted encroachment of the national administration ; and there is not a man in the Abolition party likely to be nominated for Gov or nor or Supreme Judge who could be relied upon to administer the government either ably or faithfully—certainly not one who would dare to stand up manfully against the. corrup tions and usurpations of the Federal admini stration. • We are therefore in little danger of defeat— but to make the election of Woodward and Lowrie absolutely certain let organization go steadily on in every county and township in the State. DESERTERS SENTENCED TO BE Suov.—Prl- Tates Wm. Grayer, 46th Pennsylytnia, Chris topher Krobart, 18th New Jersey, and Wm. M'Kee, 46th Pennsylvania volunteers, have been found guilty of desertion and sentenced to be shot by musketry. Gen. Hooker has aproVed the proceedings, finding and sen tences. Negro vs.. White Solitierel We have been a thousand times told by ad , ministration prints, by `officials in its employ . by AbolitiO Senators,. Representatives, ore- . tore and preuebers, that the negro,* now the, only hope if the couutry—that without negro soldiers we may as well give up the contest and acknowledge the independence of the Southern Confederacy. If this is all true, why in the name of patriotism and' Wisdom don't the administration confine its attention more exclusively to the raiding of negro troops? WitTdon't it gather its brave black friends to get&her, in legions, from the North and the South wad overwhelm the rebels, hotted of con scripting white men, with whom they allege we cannot succeed ? • They either lie about the negro being the only hope of the country, or they act with little regard to its safety. Since they have forced the negro policy upon the country against the solemn protest of three-fourths of the people, and since they allege that only the negro can now defeat and bag the rebels and save the "life of the nation," they are bound, it seems to us, to force him into the army, 'wherever they find him, free ir slave, and put him into a position where to can best show his fighting qualities against the armed rebels. Let the white man alone awhile and try these black heroes in the field, not by companies and regiments merely, but by bri gades, divisions and corps. NEWS OF THE DAY. BY TELEGRAPH. FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. lIIIADQUARTERS, ARMY OF THE POTOM/A June 22nd, 1663. Heavy cannonading was commenced, early yesterday morning, in the direction of Aldie, and continued, with intermissions, during the day. Towards night the sound became more and more indistinct. No definite reports have been received. It was known that Gen. Pies sonton attacked the enemy near Aldie, and :t is supposed he has succeeded in routing Stuart's command. It will probably be late before the reports of . the battle are received, as the battle field is 25 miles distant, with no telegraphic communication. [We may infer fr2m this that on Monday Hooker's headquarters wire 26 miles from Aldie.] DISPATCH PROM GEN. PLEASONTON. 'MAI/QUARTERS CAVALRY CAMP NEAR UPPERVILLE VA. 5.50 p. m , June 21st, 1863. Brigadier General S. Williams : GENERAL : I moved with my command this a. in. to Middleburg, attacked the cavalry feFce of rebels under Stuart, and steadily drove lltiat all day ; in fighting heavy loss ; drove iim through Upperville into Ashby'eGap, took two pieces of artillery, one being a Blakely gun, and caissons, by blowing up one, and upwards of GO prisoners—more coming in—a lieutenant colonel, major and five other officers, besides a wounded colonel and a large number of other wounded left in the town of Upperville. They left their dead and wounded upon the field. Of the former I saw upwards of twenty. We also took a large number of carbines, pis tols and sabres; in fact, it was a most disas trous day to the rebel cavalry, Our loss has been very small. I never saw troops behave better or under more difroult circumstances. Very heavy charges were made and sabres used freely, but always with great advantage to us. (Signed,) A. PLEASONTON, Brig. Gen. ATTEMPT TO ARREST A DESERTER-AN OFFICER SHOT AND DESERTER KILLED NORRISTOWN, June 22.—Last night Daniel Bisenberry and M. Wagner, special deputy pro vost marshals, assisted by A. lt. Battolet, en rolling officer, attempted to arrest a deserter named Howe, in Frederick township, Mont gomery county. Admittance to the house was demanded and refused. Horns were blown by the parties in the house and answered by horns in different parts of the neighborhood. The deserter fired from a window and shot Berta let, killing him instantly. As he was firing the second time the guard fired and killed Howe. TUN mama MAWILAND BALTIMOBIE, June 22.—A dispatch received at the American office says that not more than 8,000 rebels are in Maryland. No engagement or demonstration has been made at Harper's Ferry, and we still hold communication with that point. TEE REBELS RETURN TO FREDERICK. BALTIMORE, June 22.—Parties who came from points up the Baltimore and Ohio road towards Frederick City yesterday, state that the rebels returned to Frederick in small force about 10 o'clock, a. m., and remained there all day. They destroyed the telegraph wires.— During the day a small force of, our cavalry charged into the town and drove the rebels out —but they subsequently returned. The rebel cavalry are said to be mostly Marylanders who came in to see their friends. Parties from plane No. 4 Oe the /341tilgioro and Ohio road state that heavy firing was heard at intervals in the direction of Harper's Ferry nearly all day. FROM VICKSBURG NEW YORK, June 22.---Vicksburg papers re ceived at headquarters contain nothing of im portance, but speak of severe casualties. AtOCIOUNTs. Fourauss ,MORROZ, June 21.—O8ICKA, June 16.—A desperate fight took place at Port Hud son on the 12th, The Confederates charged the enemy and drove him from the fortifica tions, but the situation at Vicksburg is still doubtful. Heavy reinforcements are pouring into Grant, and large , installments from Rose crane have been sent to the great army invest ing Vicksburg. FROM WASHINGTON. Raw Yost, Jute 22.—A Speoial dispatch from Washington says that no rebels are at Thoroughfare - Gap. Notaing seen of the enemy towards Warrenton and beyond that point. Our army is on the move. Look out for news. ADMIRAL FOOTE NEW Vous, June 20.—Admiral Foote, whose sickness tuts been already announced, still lingers. but without the elighest prospect of recovery. Last evening a consultation of physicians was held at his room at the Astor House, and the opinion was general among them that he would hardly survive the night. He was alive, however, in the, morning, and another council was held, but no favorable symptoms appeared. The Admiral is gradually sinking, and his death is almost momentarily expected. LATER NR.W YORK, June 22- - EVetling.—The condi. tion of Admiral Foote is not as favorable as this morning, and it is feared he will die. BY THE MAILS. RAID INTO INDIANA-20,900 TROOPS FOR SIX MONTHS CALLED FOR-HOME GUARDS DEFEAT. ED AT ORLEANS. CINCINNATI; June 20.—Yesterdity about 100 of the Fourth Kentucky rebel cavalry crossed the Ohio river into Harrison county, Indium s for the purpose of making a raid into the inte rior. At Orleans the rebels had a skirmish with the homeguards, whom they repulsed. The rebels were moving toward!the Ohio and Mississippi railroad at the last accounts. The militia, with' the convalescents from the hospitals at New Albany and Louisville, have started in pursuit of the rebels. The Indiana Btate apthonties hat. Waled nal*? twenty thousand volunteers, to serve far months. INVASION OF MARYLAND-NEWSPAPERS UP- PRESSED. Detrutoun, June 21.—Information has been received that Frederick was occupied by a 'small force of rebels last evening about 6 o'clock. The rebel pickets extended last night about 13 miles east on the Frederick turnpike. There ie no panic in this city. • Gen. Schenck has issued an order suppress ing the circulation of disloyal papers in this Department, as follows: HEADQUARTERS BTM ARMY COMPS, Z . BALTIMORE, June 20, 1863. S The following newspapers have been sup pressed within the limits of this department, and the local press will not hereafter be al lowed to publish extracts from their columns : New York World, New York Express, Cincin nati inquirer, Chicago Times, New,York Cauca sian. By order of the General Commanding, W. 8. FITCH, Lieut. Col. and Provost Marshal. BALTIMORE, June 21.—The rebels made their appearance at 5 o'clock last evening, and about 7 o'clock a small body of cavalry 'reached the Monocacy bridge, four miles this side of Fred erick. The rebels paroled the sick in the hos pitals and the Government employees. They searched the stables for horses, and seised all marked "IT. S." A large force of rebels, infantry and caval ry, crossed at Antietam ford during yesterday. Refugees exaggerate the number to 45,000 or 60,000, but our scouts say 25,000. The opera tors at Monocacy Bridge, as soon as the rebels appeared, came down to Baltimore on a hand car, traveling the entire distance, forty-nine miles, in seven hours. These operators, young lads, named E. Fulton and Giswell, stood their ground to the last moment, and only left when the rebels were in sight. The former brought away all the important dispatches that were in the office. A railroad conductor and several government employees also came down on the hand-oar. At Plane No. 4, heavy firing could be heard, this morning, in the direction of Harper's Ferry. As a matter of precaution against a raid or other hostile demonstration on this city, aline of earthworks is being erected around the west and north sides of the city, thus completing the fortifications. A. very large force is en gaged, mostly contrabands. A line of barri cades, composed of tobacco hogsheads filled with brick and sand, has been erected within the city, extending from the high ground on the east to the southwestern extremity of the city. LATER FROM FREDERICK BALTIMORE JUDO 21—Midnight.—A party who left Frederick this morning says that the rebels who came there last evening were only a small squad, who passed through the town, captured a few horses and left. This, squad was in pursuit of some of our signal corps from South Mountain. Our informant says no rebels were known to be nearer than South Mountain when he left Frederick, at 8 o'clock. LEES ARMY PROBABLY AT CHESTER HAP. WASHINGTON, June 21.—The rebels are not at Bull Bun, nor is Gen. Hill at Dumfries. This contriliction is positive, notwithstanding the currency given to the opposite rumor. Bull Run and Dumfries have been visited, and the rebels have not been seen. From a variety of statement and speculation, based upon respectable authority, it is ex tremely probable that Gen. Lee is now at Ches ter Gap with the main body of his army. This is certainly consistent with information we have heretofore received, and is a statement generally believed in. FROM VICROBITRG MEMPHIS, June 19, via Cairo, 21.—Official advicee from Vicksburg to the 16th are re ceived. The siege was progressing slowly but surely. Our total loss during the past week is estimated at less than forty. Not over eight or ten were killed. The garrison continued a vigorous firing of musketry and shells up to the time the dispatches were written, but with no success. • An attack from Johnson is looked for daily, but each day lessens his chances of accomplish ing anything. The guerrillas are still active at various points on the Mississippi. There is nothing from the cavalry expedition sent out by Gen. /10010. MITAPIIMISDORV, June 20.—Information' received here says that Gen. Grant will un doubtedly take Vicksburg. Ten days ago he entrenched his position on the Big Black, and in the rear of Sherman, at Walnut Hills. General Grant is perfectly able to defeat any force which the rebels may bring against him. - General Joe Johnston cannot collect a suffi cient force to dislodge General Grant before the mines shall have been exploded and the city taken. Jared Blazer', of the 4th Indiana battery, Was shot to•day for desertion. WASHINGTON, June 20. —lin official dispatches from Vicksburg to the 14th inst., have been received. Everything is going on well there. There art Many; intlioationsk that the rebel garrison must soon succumb. REBEL. REPORTS -DARIEN DESTROYED - - SEVEN FEDERAL IRON•OLADS AT BRUNSWICK-VAL. LANDIGEAM RUNE THE BLOCKADE. FORTRESS Monson, June 21.—Riohmond papers of yesterday state that the city of Da rien, Georgia, was burned by the Feder&ls on the 11th instant, and is now one plain of ashes and blackened chimneys. The Federals also captured the scho o ner Pet, ready to sail for Nassau with a cargo of cotton. Seven Federal iron-clads were at Bruns wick, Georgia, and large forces had been lan ded from transports. Mr. Vallandigham has run the blockade from Wilmington, N. C. He is going to Nassau, and from thence to Canada. THE STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA Witmina, Va., June 20.—The State of West Vitginia is now a fixed fast. Hon. A. J. Bor man was to-day inaugurated as its first Gov ernor. Business was universally suspended, and the citizens turned out en masse to usher in the new State. Many business houses and resi dences were gaily decorated with flags. The celebration of the day was closed with a bril liant display of fireworks. In the firing of tho national sallates, Captain Morris W. Downey had his right hand severely injured by a premature explosion. COL. D'UTASSY IN Patsow.—The Sing Sing Republican, announcing the arrival of Colonel D'Utassy at the prison in that place, says: When he was assigned to a shop, ho asked his keeper to allow him to go alone from the shop, to the • mess-room ' 'remarking that he deemed it too degrading for him, having been a colonel and an acting brigadier general in the United States service. to march with com mon convicts. In answer, the keeper limply remarked : "Captains, colonels and brigadiers are all alike here--all reduced to the ranks." When he , incidentally mentioned that he had had a university of edimation, and was master ofeleven. different languages, the keeper re plied : "One language is all we have here, and we want very little of that." Loox., Orrr , ron C4IIIZITIMIF PCISTAnn CUR aRNOT---Durnig Friday night and Saturday a large number of counterfeit fifty cent notes were put in circulation , in the city. The notes are i lithographed, and so' close an imitation of the genuine bills that it requires an expert to de.; tect the fraud. On Saturday a woman was arL rested in'the fifth ward on the Charge of shov ing the . ne* counterfeits, and no less than ninety of the spurious notes were,found in heti possession. She had, also some counterfeit ones and twos of the Union Bank of Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, in her possession.— Philaa'ephia Di+patch. NEW YORK AND PENNSYLVANIA.-11 is a glo rious thing to think that, at a moment like this, New York can tend, at a day's notice, to Pennsylvania, an army of 15,000 men to pro tect her from invasion. Gov. Seymour is pushing forward regiment alter regiment, for the protection of our sister State.—Albany Ar gus. It is, indeed, "a glorious thing"—and the Democracy of Pennsylvania, the truly loyal masses, will not soo,n forget the promptness with which New York and New Jersey lend their aid.—Editor Patriot and Union. "How doyou get along with your arithme tic ?" asked a father of hie little boy. "Oh, father !" exclaimed the delighted youngster, " I've ciphered through addition, partition, subtraction, distraction, abomina tion, justification, hallucination, darnation and amputation." Most men would be ashamed not to know a great deal more than they knew years ago, and yet, with a strange inconsistency, they are ambitions of being thought not to bare changed or modified any opinion they ever held.—Pren tice.
