General U. K. H.ckles, who has been to Washington City on business pertaining to the Brigade, returned yesterday, lie tele graphed to the commander of the post to have the Brigade drawn up in dress parade on his arrival, bi t as he came two hours behind lime the parade was noceasanly gone through wilhl out him. B The Brigade is rapidly tilling up. 1 heard a conversation between General Sickles and the Surgeon of the Brigade, in which the Gen eral lolormed the Dr. that he desired that the men should be inspected at once, as be would move shortly from this. 1 judge we are to proceed immediately to the seat of war, (Fort reas Monroe, probably ) ' Tbe uniforms for our company arrived to day, and we will go on parade to-morrow' fully uniformed, and as there are 5 Odd stand of arms at City Uall.New York, for this Brig, ado, it will not be long beforo we are entirely equipped. Our men are all well and enjoving Iheuuelves, so those who were apprehensive that we might be absorbed in this Brigade were greatly mistaken, and I am happy to say that we have never met io many warm friends as since wo came D Mew York. We have received tbe first position ol honor in our rsg'm-nt, viz: the right of the tiftb.— This is encouraging—more than we possibly cculd expect. J Next Sunday will be a great day in camp. A flag will be taifed and a sermon pleached t "Wtilito conclude with a grand dress pa- We witnessed for the first time, to-day, the drumming cut if cauip of a re rui. who'was round guilty of theft. The Brigade was or deredout to witness h: 8 pun ihment, formed into two ranks open order, down which the man was marched, one side of his head shaved, a card on his back with the word thirf primed on it. He was followed by the drummer, playing the Rogues March,” it was a sorry sight; one which I never wish to witness again. Capt. Brurm, of the Friendßiflef?, left this evening for Pittsburgh. I understand he has gone to recruit another company. Success to him, for he is the right man in the right place. They are not in our regiment, being attached to the Ist. "We have a mats in our company called the “ Kearns mesa," called after our pa triotic lriend K. P. Kearns, of your office, to ■whom we are under many obligations. I am sorry to say that two of our non com missioned officers have left the camp, without leave, to-day, for the purpose, I understand of recruiting in Pittsburgh for this Brigade. As I was tolcPto day, by Gin. Sickles, that the Brigade was full, they will Bnd themselves mislaken, and 1 hereby inform those who may join this company that they will only have their trouble ior their pains. We received a dispatch today Iroin Colonel Campbell, of the 12th Pennsylvania Regiment, offering us a position in his regiment; it is 100 late now.

A Pittsburgh V olunteer Shot Dead for lie fusing to Obey Orders* Letters received yesterday from members the Firemen’s Legion, at Mellville, Baltimore county, Md., give the details of a tragic oc currence on Saturday last Four members of the “Legion,” Robert (alias “Loafet”) Bell, Joseph Davis, John "W. AicClay aDd another, named Knox, left “Camp Scott,” and going to town, became intoxicated and when a file of soldiers was cent for them, refused to Some accounts say they had commited depre» dations on the farm houses between camp and the town. A second file of soldiers was equal ly unsuccessful in bringing them back, one of the soldiers having his musket wrested from him. The guard was reinforoej and sent out a third time, with orders from Capt. Stewart to bring them in, dead or alive. On reaching the insubordinate squad the Sergeant in com mand ordered them into quarters repeating his orders. They replied by firing at the guard, Bell with a musket, the others with pistols. A section of the guard, five men, was now order ed to fire and did so. Bell fell, pierced by four ball, two in the head and two in the abdomen, coming out through the spinal column. The other shot struck Knox in the arm. None of the guard were injured. Bell was a notorious character here, bad fig ured extensively in police reports and was no ted for his violence, especially when in liquor. His violent death may be a warning to others disposed to follow bis example. A correspondent of the Gazette, referring to the affair sa^s: “Thus has the first mutiny been quelled, and properly, although OapL Stewart feals it keen ly; but he had no alternative, for this is not the first time the same party have refused to obey and resisted the guard. They have been put on extra guard, and punished repeatedly, but without any beneficial result. Captain Stewart was exactly right in thus quelling the first outbreak so promptly, arid bis course has been fully endorsed by the entire staff, who came down this morning early to investigate the matter. Davis and Maclay have just gone *° Henry, under guard, where the? will be tried.

I Sword Presentation—An Interesting Ceremonial. —Last evening one of the large parlors of the Monongahela House was filled by a party of ladies and gentlemen to witness a pleasing and touching ceremony—nut an uncommon one amid the incidents of these times of war,—but in this iostance a peculiar ly graceful and appropriate one. A beautiful sword was presented to Lieutenant Colonel S. D. Oliphant, by bis friends, as a token of their love for the man and their esteem for the vir. tues peculiar to tho soldier, which he so emi nently possesses. In a speech conceived in most excellent taste and delivered with true manly feoling, the sword was presented to Col. Oliphant by Algernon S. Bell, Esq. of tbi> city. It w L received by Col. Olipnaiil with deep feeling aDd his reply was a model of calm el, quence! such as only comes when the heart speaks out! The gentlemen were college mates together are both members ol the legal profession and the friendship of their early days has been re fined and strengthened by the growing es teem of more mature years The occasion was one which called forth feeling allusions to by-gone days, and classic remembrances. The generous impulses of both hearts poured out in simple touching words Tnere was no effort at display—no high fl iwn effort at big round words, hut the men spoke to each other as brother might speak to brother. We never recollect to have witnessed asimi lar ceremony more happily consummated -- The audience sympathized heartily with the sentiments expressed by the speaker, and at the close of the ceremony gavo their’ hearty congratulations to the officer whom they had assembled to honor. J. H. S. Court of (Quarter Session*, Monday, Judo 17th, Be.'ore Judges McClure, Adams and Parke The case of Commonwealth »*. Philip Klein indicted lor keeping a dm, rderly house, known as the •• Molodeon," Smithlield nr-ei. WHe called. The indictment was drawn under the new penal code, section -Td of which provides that "if any person shall keep and maintain a common, ill governed and disorderly houso or place, to the encouragement of idlonnss, gaming, drinking or other misbehaviour, to the common nuisance and distmbaiue of the neighborhood or orderly citizens, ho or she shall be guilty of a misdemoanor, and on con viction, be sentenced to pay a line not exceed ing live hundred dollars, or to undergo an im prisonment not exceeding one year or both, or either, at the discretion of the Court " Seve ral witnesses le-tilled to the disordes'y charac ter of the bouse, when defendant’s counsel, Samuel W. Black and K P Jones, E qrs.l withdrew the piea of not guilty and substituted one of guilty. The jury was di-charged and Saturday next fixed ior the sentence of defend ant. Julius Weisert, indicted under the same clause, for keeping the ■■ Hod, White aDd Bine," next door to the •• Melodeon," was tried and convicted. Sentence deferred Alex. Totten plead guilty to selling liquor without license and was lined slu and costa. John McGovern was tried for larceny and acquitted At the ai j lurnment oi Court Henry Rawie was on trial lor illegal liquor selling. The Reserve Corps to be Armed— The Uniled States government has notified the Governor of Pennsylvania that he 4 will be furnished immediately with ten thous and stand of arms, fur the purpose ot arming the Reserve Curps. These arms are to be of the best and most approved description, and will be placed in the hands of the Reserve Corps as soon as they are forwarded from the General Government. The Slate authorities are making arrangements to purchase a supply of rifles. The arms to be furnished by the War Department were applied for by the State au thorities. Three thousand men are to be armed and equipped this week, but whether this will include any of the men at “Camp Wright” we are not prepared to state. A Good Susgestion. — A friend from New England suggests that on the occasion of the celebration of the approaching Kourth of July, all the'bells in the city, not only those on en gine houses and steam-boats, but those on the ohurohes, which are largest and loudest, should be rung during the firing of Lhe national salute at sunrise Thiß is the old Revolution custom, and it is Btill kept up in New York and New England. We call the attention of the civic committee, when appointed, to this matter, as worthy of consideration. Bask Failubi —The Medina Bank, New York, has failed. Its capital is only $50,000, its circulation is a little over $lOO,OOO, and its deposits exceed that amount. As part of the securities pledged for the redemption of the circulating notes are bonds and mortgages, it is quite likely that the bill.holders wili loso something considerable. The bank has re cently made some change in its ownership, and been under depreciation for some time. Dithi Bihvice at Camf Wilkies —Kev. J. M. G-reene, of Middlesex, Mercer county, preached at Camp Wilkins on Sunday fore noon and afternoon, and conducted prater meetings in the evening There are nine com panies now in this camp.

The steamer “Echo” is chartered to convey the school and guests from the city to the grounds.

A cow, belonging to a poor man, residing in the vicinity of Oakland Park, was killed bv a stray ball from the rifle of one ot a company of Home Guards, engaged in target practice More caution should be used, as the govern ment rifles carry a long distance.

Proclamation of Gen. Lyon Skirmish at Jlfewporl JTcirs, CITIZEN'S FIIIKIJ UPON i:v UNITED STATES TUOOi’.S IN ST. LOUIS Western Virginia Items St. Locis, June 17.—T e following procla* mation haa just, been isemrd in an extra Demo’ crat, to the citizens of Missouri, prior to the proclamation issued by Jackson, of date of 12th of Junp: “It was well known to you that the Gov ernor and Legislature sympathised in the rebellion movement now in progress in the country, and had adopted every means in their power to effect a separation of this state from the General Government. For this purporse parties of avowed secessionist* have been organizr-d into military companies through* out the State, with the full knowledge and ap proval of the Governor; the establishment of encampments in the Stale at an unusual period of the year, and authorised for an indefinite period, could have had no other object than the rone* titrating of a large military force to be subjected to the provisions of the military hill then in contemplation, and subsequently they passed a bill so offensive to all poarable inhabitants, and so palpably unconstitutional that it could be accepted by those only who were willing to conform to its extraordinary provisions for the purpose of effecting their cherishod object—the disruptionof the Federal Government. That bill provides for an obligation to the State on the part of all persons enrolled under its provisions irrespective of any obligation to ihe United Stale*?, when the constitution re* quires all State officers to take an oath of alle giance tn the United Slates. This, nf itself, is a repudiation of all the au thority of the General Government, whose Constitution is the Supreme law on the part of 1 the State Government and its officers, and such citizens m might choose to adopt theprovi •iions of the bill, and coupled as it was, on the part of the Legislature and Governor, with declarations hostile to its authority, ayrd in sympathy with those who were arriyed in a condition of actual hostility against it could leave no doubt of its object to carry out the provisions of this extraordinary act,having in direct view hostilities to the federal gov eminent. It was so denounced by Gen. Har ncy, who characterized it as a secession ord nance in his proclamation of the 14th of May last. That proclamation doubtless gave rise to an interview between Gen. Harney and Gen Tricr.that resulted in an agreement'whiob :t was hoped would lead to the,restoration of tranquility and good order in your State, that a repudiation of military, and all efforts ■f 111* military c-t the State under ils provision was the basis of agreement, was shown as well by the proclamation of Gon Harney immediately preceding it, as will be seen by the following paper submitted to Gen. I’nce. containing the preliminary conditions to an interview with him: | Here follows the letter of Breed to Gen. Pi.eo, published in the Democrat of Wednes- day i«M.] This agreement failed to deline specifically ihe torms of the peace, or bow far a suspension of the provisions of the military should form a part ot it, though from toe express declare lion of Gen. Harney at the time ot the con- ference, as well as from the foregoing paper, a ruspension of any action under the bill until there could be a judicial termination of its character by some competent tribunal, must, in good faith, be regarded as a fundamental basisof the negotiation. Nevertheless, immediately alter this arrangement and up to the lime of Gov Jackson’s proclamation inaugurating complaints of attempts to execute the provts. lons of this bill, by which the most exaspera ting hardships have been imposed upon peaceful and luyal citizens, coupled with persecution and proscription, those opposed to its proviso mns have been made tome as commander of .be United States forces, here, and have been carried to the authorities at Washington, with appeals for relief from Union men in all’parts OI the State, who have been abused, insulted, an I. in some instances, driven from th«ir to-111*8 I believe it to be the duty of a just government to use overy exertion m its power to give, upon this point, the policy of the government, which is set forth in a glowing communication from the Departmental Wash ington: AbjUTA.N'T GkNKBAL'S OvriCK, I Washington, May 27th, 1861. / Brigadier Gen W. S. Harney, Commanding Department, West of St. Louis : Sir—The President observes with concern, that notwithstanding the pledge of the State authorities to co-operate in preserving the peace of Missouri, that loyal citizens, in great numbers, continue to be driven from tboir homes. It is immaterial whether these outrages continue from inactivity or indisposition on the part of the State authorities to prevent them, it is enough that they continue to de volve on VOU the duty of putting a stop to them summarily by the force under your com mand, to be aided by such troops as you may require Iroin Kansas, lowa and Illinois, and all the professions of loyelty to the Union by the State authorities of Missouri are not to be relied upon. Hit'y I ave falsified those professions too often, and are to,, far commilted to secession to Ic admilled fo your confidence, and you can only bo sure d their desisting from thoir wick ed purpose- when it is not in their power to prosecute You will, therefore, be un. eeasingly watchful of their movements, and not permit the clamors of their partizans, and the oppuneta of wise measures already taken to prevent you from checking every movement against the government,however disguised un der the pretended State authority. The autb ority of the United States is paramount, and whenever it is apparent that a movement, whether by color of State authority or nol, is hostile, vou will not hesitate to put it down’ I cigned] W L.

It is my design to carry out these matron, '.'oils in lileir letter and spirit; their justice and proprieiy will be appreciated by all who 1-eve taken an enlightened view of the rela tions of the citizens of Missouri to the Gene ral Government, nor can such policy becon stru-d as at all disparaging to tho rights or dignity of the State of Missouri, or as infring ing in any sense upon the individual liberty of its citizens. The recent proclamation oi Gov Jackson, by which he has set at defiance the authorities of the United States and urged you lo make war upon them, it but the consumma tion > i his treasonable purposes long indicated by his acts and expressed opinions, and now made manlf* ?t If in suppressing those treasonable projects, carrying out the policy of the government, and maintaining its dignity, as abovo indicated hostPitics should unfortunately . ccur, and un happy consequences should follow. I would hope that all aggravation of these events may be diverted from tho innocent, and may fall only upon the heads of those by whom they have been provoked. In the discharge of these plain hut onerous duties, I shall look for tho continuance of the active co operation of all good citizens, and I shall eipect them to discountenance all illegal combinations or or ganizations, and to support and uphold, bv every lawful moans, the Federal government upon tho maintenance of which depends their liberties and the perfect enjoyment of all their rights < Sig-nnl ) N.

V Information, deemed reliable, has been re ceived here to-day that the rebels abandoned Leesburg yesterday, after burning all the cars and locomotives belonging to the Alexandria Hampshire and London Kail road terminating there. This was probably induced by a knowledge of the approach of Col. Stone’s column, by way of Edwards’ Ferry, and the fact that the federal forces from Alexandria had rebuilt the bridges, stocked that end of the road and had a telegraph completed to a die - tance of fifteen miles towards Leesburg.

The Secretary of War has instructed the Surgeon General immediately to convene in this city after due notice, an Army Medical Board, whose duty it shall be to examine /all persons referred to by the Department as applicants for Brigade Surgeon and report the result of such examinations. The appointments will he made only from and among those who shall be so examined and reported by the board as qualified. Another order has been issued by the Secretary that the Surgeon General shall institute a similar board. io consequence of various complaints having reached the De partment of the incompetency of regimental surgeons, who havo been appointed either oy the commanding officers or by the Governors of Lbo S ales, the board is to examine surgeons of whom complaint has been made in order to secure their dismissal if found incompetent. The Eastern Pennsylvania Railroad has made an ofler which has been accepted to receive government bonds in payment for the transportation of troops and munitions of war over the route between New York and Harrisburg. Edward Clymer, the Pres ident of the company, in his letter says: “Should all the transportation companies unite in a like offer, it would necessarily re lieve the pressure upon the National Treas ury, and also tend La inspire confidence in the credit and faith of the government. The bids were opened at the Post Office Department today for carrying the mails I on route. No. 14*26 for four years from the first of duly next. For that of supplying the branch Post Office city of New York, there were 63 bidders ins urns of from £1790 to $12,000 per annum. The contract was awarded to William Wray, at the for mer price. This service has heretofore been performed by G. D. Morris at $3500 per an num. The withdrawal of Mr. Burlingame from the Austrian mission was not in consequence of any protest on the part of Austria, but of a delicate unofficial intimation that the appointment was not agreeable to that gov- ernment. Henry Bill, of Virginia, army paymaster at New York, has resigned. A gentleman who rude down the tow path ''f the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, reports that at flveo’dock yesterday afternoon Colonel Stone was in quiet possession of Leesburg. He also confirms the report that Lieutenant Col. Everett’s command, at Seneca Mills, had a brush with the Virginia cavalry under Capt. t»hreve, and that tho captain and two of his Lieut. Col. fiverett drew men were killed he water out of the canal in front of his po sition and used the tow path fora breast work, which gave him a decided advantage in post lion.

She re. •urned the compliment with a shell, when the annoyance ceased. St. Lous, June 17.—As part of Colonel Kallman’s regiment of reserve corps were returning from the North Missouri Kail road about eleven o'clock this morning, and when opposite the Recorder's Court Room, on 7th street, between Olive and Lo cust, a company near the rear of the col umn suddenly wheeled and discharged their rifles, aiming chiefly at the windows of the Recorder’s Court and the second story of the adjoining house, killing four citizens, mortally wounding one, and slightly injuring one. The statements regarding the cause are very conflicting, one being that a pistol shot was fired from the window of a house at the corner of 7th and Locust streets, which took ellect on the shoulders of one of the Captains, when lie gave the word to fire; another is that a soldier accidentally discharged his rifle in ihe rank, at which the company became frightened, and dis charged a lull volley on the crowd on lire sidewalk and windows of the houses. The Recorder’s Court wss in session, crowded with prisoners and spectators. Police Officer Pratt was shot in the side, and died in 10 minutes. Deputy Marshal Franzo re ceived three balls in bis l-gs and will undoubt edly die. The names of the other persons, who were killed on the pavement below, are not ascertained- Tho window just behind'Re corder Peer’s desk was riddled with bullets, and tbe broken glass was scattered over his desk. Tbo bodies of the killed were removed to the Health i dice, where a thorough investi gation will bo had, when the particulars will be given The Federal force now engaged in the into- of thin Stale consists of upwa-ds of 10, 000 men, 2,500 of whom are stationed at Her mann and Jefferson City; 3,200 at Kolia, the terminus of the Southwest branch of the' Pa ciflo Kail road; 2,600 at St. Joseph and along the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad; 1,000 on the North Missouri Railroad, and 1,000 at Bird’s Point, opposite Cairo. In addition to this there is a force of 2,600 remaining at St. Louis, wbleh could be in creased to iOOO in a few hours by accessions from neighboring camps in Illinois. These troops hold the entire portion of the State North of the Missouri river, the South-east quarter lying between the Mississippi, and a line drawn Southward from Jefferson City to Arkansas border, giving the Federal govern ment the important points of St. Louis, Han ibal, St. Joseph and Bird’s Point as a basis of operation with rivers and railrotds as means of transportation. Nothing is known of the movements of tho troops above Jefferson City. The Warsaw, Mo., Democrat says that Judge Johnson will not take his seat in the U. 8. Senate in July. It also states that Sen ator Polk will not take his seat. St. Luis, June 1.. —lt is impossible to ar rive at the truth relativo to tho cause of the firing upon the citizens to day by the volun teer troop. Scores of statemems of eye wit nesses say that pistol shots were repeatedly fired from the windows of the house adjoining tho Recorder’s Court room, and a number as sert that no pistols were fired from any quar ter first, and that the only shot before the gen eral firing, was the accidental discharge of a rifle in thn ranks. The wound of Captain Roische, however, is of such a oharaeter as to induce the belief that he was shol from the 2d or 3d story window, the ball entering his coat just back of the point of the lert shoulder, tear, ing the skin across the spine and passing out at the lower point of the right shoulder blade Two or three membersof the same oompany are said to be wounded by buckshots. A large number of witnesses have been summoned to attend the Coroner's inquest to-morrow morn ing, tvhon it iB hoped that the facts will be learned The following are the additional names of those killod : Jabez Perris, Curran Irscy, Luici Celia, aud a man named Burns of Chicago. Much excitement exists but we hear oi no demonstration of any character having been made.

Clark’s splendid regiment of 1,000 strong, Maj Cobb’s new Light Artillery corps, and a new battallion of Zouaves, were among the military features of the occasion.
