Other companies are willing to go but have not yet respond , eel formally to the Committee, among them the Arsenal Guards, Lawrenceville, Collier !titles, Sharpeburg, and Leer, ausrde, Sewickley. At the meeting of the Committee at the same place at o'clock this ~morning, other companies will doubtless report. This result was most gratifying, as show ing the spirit with which our Horne Guard is animated and their entire willingness to serve their country in Western Virginia or elsewhere, whenever they ere needed. On Learning the result of the application, John Harper telegraphed to G v. Piorpont, of Virginia, and Commodore Kountz, in forming them that one thousand men would go to Virginia for a shirt period, whenever wanted, on a proper requisition. No reply has yet been received. Uur men, however, will not be expected to go into the field until they are fully equipped and prepared to endure the privations of camp life. Some plan for effecting this will ere long he presented, if the Virginia govern meat needs the men. NARROW ESCAPE— DAN Boss IN DANGER —St. Paul Piptieer relates an occurrence by which Dan' Boss came near teeing his life a few days since. It appears that, be ing, on a visit tO that vicinity, he went to Bass Lake on Monday last in company with several gentlemen and ladies. They were out in the middle of the lake in a boat, and were having gocd luck in haul. ing in the pickerel and bass, when a pick. ore! of great size and weight caught Mr. M.'a hook. He attempted to haul him into the boat, when the pole broke, and he pitched head first into the water. Tho place where he fell in is known as Nutter's hole, where the water is about fifty feet deep. Having on his usual cloth ing, he sunk out of eight, and it was a long time before he came to the surface again. Strenuous efforts were made to save him, bat before they could get to him he sank again. When he came up the second time he had apparently given up all hope of being saved, and had his watch in his hand, which he attempted to tbrcw to Mr. Wat son, one of the gentlemen in the boat.— They finally succeeded in catching him by the hair of his head, when ha was almost insensible, and, as he could not be lifted into the boat without danger of upsetting it, he was towed along in that manner to the shore. It was truly a narrow escape, and the veteran joker had on a very solemn countenance when he arrived at the Inter-- national in the evening. A question has arisen as to what Dan Bowl got his watch cut for at that solemn Mar, when eternity looked him in the face. The c nly plausible solution is that,with the railroad passion strong in death, he was anxiously seeking to know whether he was on time in the settlement of his last ac counts THE PENDING LEASE OF THE PEI LA =FRIA AND ERIE RAILROAD BY THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.— The fact that this important measure was not Aurried to, a conclusion seems here and there to have awakened misgivings that there is a "hitch" in the negotiation. It affords us gratification, says the; Alining Register, to be able to say, however, that there has been no halt in the movement since the contacting parties agreed upon the main poiql in the proposed lease; but that, the measure is making satisfactory progress, the ratification of the contract by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company being a foreshadowed certairty. From the tenor of the negotiations as they are pro gressing, it is obvious, too, that not only will the financial condition of the Phila• delphia and Erie gailroad Company be made less embarrassing than it has been hitherto, by the action of its creditors holding unfunded obligations, but that the early completion and .equipment of the road Will be Eec u r ed. beyond possibility of disappointment These, certainly, are re. , sults worth the exercise of patience in waiting upon the successive steps of a mo mentous negotiation and contract involv, ing diverse interests and large invest, meats, the aim and end of which is to se cure the early completion and the efficient working of a rail line to the lakes, in con• unction with the eicsiting rail line to the Ohio river, which latter has been so suc cessful in its operation. IWLIWAD ACCIDENT —A shocking as cident occurred on the Pennsylvania Rail road on Friday night, about a mile this side of. Newport. It appears that a man, evidently a soldier, got on the bumper of one of the cars of the stock train at Mif. fin, with a ',view of stealing a passage Bast, and was seen on the train at New. port, apparently asleep, leaning over.— When tie fell off, the train upon the other track going West passed over him, kill ing him instantly. He was afterwards seen lying on the track by a watchman, but before he could remove him another train- passed over him,-literally cutting him in two. The remains were taken to Newport, where an inquest was held, and the,Ustial verdict in such oases rendered.— There was nothing found upon the man to identify him. - RV CAVALRY REGIMENT.—Captain B. Sipes, of 13.1tnisliu,rg, who commented the “State Cspital kluards" during thbir term of service of threci months, has been anthdrized IT the. , Wr Depart ment to raise eV-Regiment-or-Cavalry, to serve for three years or during the war.

ROWLEY is filling up his regiment ' , very rapidly. Nearly all his companies have at least sixty men enrolled and some, including Capt. J, Heron Foster's and Captain Wm Idellwaine's are almost full. The regiment was expected to move East_ ward yesterday afternoon with about six hundred men, but did not get off. It will probably leavo this afternoon. Such corn. names as are not full will leave a recruit ing officer behind to fill op t> the required complement. So far the regiment is corn; posed of the beat material, having a large proportion of three months' men, and bids fair, when full, to be one of the best in the service.

'2O.—As much has ' been said about the attitude of European powers threatening the blockade, Lifter special inquiry at the State Departrue.r.t, there is authority for saying that in the ins'ance when the Niagara was t.t_f the sta. Lion of Charleston for twenty.fuur Lord Lyons brought the sublest to the no' Lice of the United Stake Groverntmett.— With that exception, which happened twelve weeks ego, no foreign government has expressed a word of discontent to this government concerning the blockade On the contrary, it is universally respected by foreign governments, although sorno of their subjects are very active in endeavors ing to evade the blockade, and are very clamorous against it. The following order was to day issued from the Adjutant General's odic(' : • Of ficers who have not been mustered Into service have power to enroll men, but are not competent to muster them under the , provisions c•f the General Orders; No .7,8. of the current series from the War 1)e partment. In this rase the muster must be made by some officer, either volunt'•:r or regular, already in the service, at.d the oath must be administered by a civil tun istrate or an officer of the regular army, preferably the latter. In must° , m - ponies the oi iginal mustering rolls will be retained at the company's rend Avous. upon which the names of the members will be enrolled as they present themselves —. As they aro mustered. they will be sent to the commanding officers cf the camps of rendezvous, with s descriptive list slat ing the name, date of enrollment and muster, and the officer by ..vtom mustered; the company and reg:mer.t to which they belong, and whether trey have or have not taken the oath of allegiance presented for those entering the service, and such other information as may be necessary or useful in the case. Necessary subsistence ill be procured upon returns signed by mustering officer. When one-half of a company has been mustered into service, the First Lieutenant thereof can also be mustered in, and when the organization of ' the company is completed, the Captain and Second Lieutenant cau be so mustered. When the men of a company have been mustered by mere than one office, the fact must be stated on the muster roll, opposite to their names by whom mustered, which roll must be signed by each officer. The field and staff officers of regiments can be mustered into the service upon the completion of the organization of the reg. iments or companies, as follows : Colonel of entire regiments, Lieut. Colonel of four companies, Major of six companies, Chap• lain, Burgeon, Adjutant, Quartermaster, and Assistant Surgeon for entire regiments. The cost of transportation of troops from the place of muster to the place of rendez vous will be paid as directed in general order No. CIR of the current series from this office, from the appropriation for collect ing, drilling and organizing volunteers. Quartermasters at the :tamps of rendez vous will make requisitions upon the Ad jutant General for tends necessary for this purpose. All officers charged with the disbursement of funds appropriated under the act above mentioned, will forward to the office monthly summary statements and accounts current, with vouchers, in the manner prescribed for the general recruit: ing service MAKING FORT KRARNiY, Aug. 19.—The pony express passed hero at three o'clock P. M , with San FrP.P.CiECO dates to OEI 10a1.— There are five different places where re. crafting is going on for the Plains. Three hundred are booked for infantry regiments, and two hundred for cavalry. Official or ders aro not yet received by the govern ment. A great fire occurred at Sonora, Tivals comi county, on the 7th inst , commen cing a few doors above the Placer Hotel. The flames spread rapidly. Hall's book store and printing office,the Planter's Hotel, Union Saloon, Great Eastern Saloon, So n-ra Fashionable Livery Stables, the Post office, five or six valuable dwellings, and many other buildings were burned. The loss is estimated at $36,000. Antigo's brick building, containing the telegraph office, was saved. Thepeople are repre sented to be very much depressed by this sudden and overwhelming repetition of the old time disasters. CARDS, &e The Familia Chiabilla land claim, or a part of the same claim at Boner°, which caused so much disturbances last winter, and came near the involving of the State Government in a bloody contest with the settlers in that vicinity, appears to have been disposed of in the 11. S. District Court. It was rejected on an advantage gained by the settlers. Notwithstanding the condition of Eastern affairs, our State campaign is conducted with great spirit, to a very great extent on local issues. The indications are that par. ties will be divided about as last year. The Republicans double the Union Democrats; next the Breckinridge party; last, but still of much greater note than was anticipated a month ago, they have nodliinated_joopu lar men, who claim to be for the Union, and ingenuously turn on the secession question; while the Douglas ticket is very assailable on personal grounds. ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2 0.—General Siegel and Major Conant and several other offi cers, arrived from Rolla last night. The train also brought a large number of wounded belonging to the different regi. manta engaged in the late battle near Springfield, who were conveyed to the hospitals or taken in charge by friends and relatives. Captain Maurice was ordered this morning to proceed to Springfield un. der a flag of truce, with a guard and am bulances, to bring in Captain Cavander, Corporal Conant, and the body of General Lyon. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 20.—The follow ing arrest were made last evening by or der of the War Department: Pierce But ler, Wm. B. Reed, Geo. M.. Wharton, Chas. Brown and David Solomon. Butler was taken to Fort Hamilton. The milita• ry spirit is on the increase. There are companies sufficient for :our regiments able to march immediately from this city, and Philadelphia has at least fifteen thou sand available troops.

The President has made an earnea appeal for all the men that can be fur niched to be sent forward without delay If Pennsylvania now puts forth. her strength, the hordes of hungry rebels may be swept down to the latitude where they belong. If she falters, the seat of tumult disorder and rapine may be transferred to her own soil. Let every man so act tha he will not be ashamed to look at his mother, his wife or his sisters. In this emergency,tt devolves upon me to call up• on all commanders of companies to report immediately to the headquarters of the Commonwealth at Harrisburg, that means may be provided for their immediate tritest, portation, with the men under their corn mend. The three months' volunteers whose discharge has so weakened the army, are urged by every consideration of feel ing, duty and patriotism to resume their arms at the call of their country and aid the:other men of Pennsylvania in quelling the traitors. Given under my hand and the great sea of the State, at Harrisburg, this twenty first day of August, in the year of our t Lord one thousand eight hundred and six- ty+one, and of the Commonwealth the oightyeixth• By the Governor JEFFERSON CITY, August 20.—The lowing proclamation, issued at Springfield, has been received here : To the people of Missouri :—The army under my command has been organized under the laws of the State for the protection of your louses and firesides, and for the maintenance of the rights, dignity and honor of Missouri. It is kept in the field for these purposes alone. To aid in accomplishing their own gallant southern brothers, have came into our State. With these we have just achieved a glorious victory over the foe and scat tered far and wide the well appointed army which the usurper at Washing ton has been more then six months gathering for more subjugation and enslavement. This victory frees a large portion of the State from the power of the invaders and restores it to the protection of its army. It consequently becomes my duty to assure you that it is my firm deter• mlnation to protect every peacable and law abiding citizen in the full enjoyment of all his rights whatever may have been his sympathies in the present unhappy struggle, if he has not taken an active part in the cruel warfare which has been waged againstlhe good people of this State by the ruthless eneml eswhom we havejustdefeatei. therefo re,in vi te all good citizens to return to their homes and the practice of their or dinary avocations with the fall assurance that they, their families, their homes and their property shall be carefully protected. I, at the same time, warn all evil-disposed . persons who may support the usurpations of any one claiming to be provisional or temporary Governor of Missouri, or who shall, in any other way, give aid or com fort to the enemy, they will be held as enr emies and treated accordingly.
