The closing of tha stores yesterday was
very general. Some few neglected it in
the morning, but when visited by a party
amen with a martial band, who request
ed "them to cicss, they acted promptly
njuilithe - suggestion, The clothing store
of M. Ambargh was among those visited,
who indignantly ordered the crowd away,

The Executive Committee last night re•
ceived the following report of men at
work on the different fortifications around
the city : Squirrel Hill, 1 451; Cemetery
Hill, 797; Eierron'a Hill, 3,053; McKelvy's,

11,245.
Men Wanted.
Col. R. Galway, a most efficient officer,
who hes already done his country service,
is recruiting for the Fifteenth Regiment
of Pennsylvania militia, now in camp. As
soon as the men enlist they will be uni
formed, and will proceed to camp. This
is an excellent opportunity for all who
wish to be under an excellent officer.
Self Defense.
L C. Orem, better known as Con. Orem,
the prize fighter, who fought a terrible
battlein the Hut some lour or five weeks
since, is expected in town to day, and will
to•morrow night give a sporting exhibi
tion. He is matched and will shortly
-fight one of the most noted pugilists in
America.
Lost or Stolen.
Air. Job. J. O'Brien yesterday lost his
gold watch and chain under the following
circumstances. He was working on the
fortifications at Herron's Hill, and during
the hour that he was off duty, he laid down
and fell asleep. When he waked up, his
watch and chain were gone. The proba-
bility is that they wore stolen.
A New Glbralter.
Pittsburgh at this time is second Gib
raltin, The fortiscations enclosing the
city on all sides are nearly completed, and
every day there are nearly ten thousand
men engaged in pushing them through to
completion. The labor already done has
placed our city in such a position that we
do not believe that the combined forces of
the South could take it. They would have
to fight through miles of entrenchments,
forts, and rule pits, placed in such posi
tions as to command every approach.
The streets are filled with men from morn
ing unfit night, drilling and preparing
themselves for any, emergency.
Cleaning it Ont.
Workmen are engaged in cleaning out
the lower ballot' the basin on Webster
street
On Parade.
Patterson's cavalry were oul'on dril
last evening, and made a fine appearance
Benent of Mr. Chippendale.
To-night Mr. Chippendale, one of the
"moat deserving actors at the theatre. takes
a benefit. This gentleman has won large
iy in his claims -to public favor, by the
correctness of his representation in what 7.
ever part he has sustained. The pieces
selected for the occasion are the "Sol
dier's Daughter," in which he takes the
part of Gov. Hearten, and the " Golden
Farmer, he playing the part of Harry
Hammer. The theatrical season is fast
drawing to a close t and we have no doubt
bat that a discriminating publ i c wilt tea
tifY their appreciation of lin merits, and
give him a full house.
Meeting or the Penn Literary
_ _
Society.
At a special falsetto* of. the Penn Lite
rary Society, held on Wednesday evening,
Jane 24111,1863, the following -Rreatiable
and resolutions were unanimonfilyadopaid:
Wagaius, Intelligence has reached us
of the death . of poor-friend and fellow
membar. . Thomas C. hicelelliuld, while
in, an engQement with the Apache Indi
ans, near Tucson, Arizona Territory ; one
whose nobleness of character has caused
to cling around our memories the endear
ing recollections of a frank and warm
hearted friend, an able and zealous mem
ber. Therefore,
Resolved, That in him this Society has
lost one of its old and valued members,
whose services and counsels we shall long ,
remember, and the memory of whose vir
tues we shall ever cherish:
Resolved, That while in humble sub;
mission we acknowledge the ways of Prov
idence, we cannot but register our unquali
fied sorrow over the death of so valuable
a member and true friend. And to the
friends. and relatives of -our brother,
we
lender our heart-felt sympathy in this
their deep bereevement. -
Resolved, That a copy of these resole
tions be sent to the family of the deceased
and in respect to him we adjourn , the So
ciety for the period of thirty days.

Cheap Gold Pens.
Since the great rise in the price of gold,
pens made of this material have advanced
so that in some establishments at . least
they ask you fifty or sixty percent. more
for a gold pen than the eame:article could
be had for before the war. Mr. Miner
on Fifth street is, we are glad to say, an
exception to this rule. He is now selling
the very best diamond pointed gold pens
at the old rates, and as might be expected,
under the circumstace the demand for
them is very great. He has them from a
dollar to three each, and as they are war
ranted in every instance to give satii fac
tion, those who buy from him cannot
make a mistake.
Pocket Picked.
Mrs. Robinson, residing in Colonade
row, Allegheny, had her pocket picked
yesterday evening, while riding in one of
the street care. . She discovered her loss
as soon as ahe left the car, and called to
the driver to atop, which he did, when the
thief jumped from the car and made his
escape.
The alarm of fire last night was occa
sioned by the burning of Stork's livery
stable, in Allegheny city, near the Peni
tentiary. The fire was the work of an
incendiary.

HARRISBURG, June 24.—The rebels are
within 25 miles of Harrisburg. The ene
my's column.halted about dusk eight miles
the other side of Carlisle and went into
Camp,
The authorities are in telegraphic com
munication with Greyson Station, two
miles from the rebel pickets. Their line
to-night is very strong.
The result of to morrow is looked for
ward with much anxiety, and not #ithout
some doubts.
Gen. Knipe may give the enemy battle
at Carlisle, or he can fall back to the Sus
quehanna. A battle will undoubtedly be
fought or the place evacuated before to
morrow night.
Gen. Couch has thrown a strong column
of men in the neighborhood of Gettyburg,
on the enemy's right flank. This, in con
nection with certain movements by the
Army of the Potomac in their rear, will
make it a dangerous experiment for them
to attempt to hold the line of the Susque
hanna.
Numerous arrests have been made to
day on the south side of the River, of
parties suspected of being rebel spies and
guerrillas, but on their cases being inves
tigated, most of them proved to be refu
gees.
The clerks and other attachees of the
State Capitol to-day organized themselves
into a company for the defense of the
The works on the opposite side of the
river have been completed, and the guns
are being mounted.
'1 he Philadelphia Grey Reserves, eleven
hundred strong are still here, but refuse
to be mustered in. Their conduct is se
verely commented on by the other troops.
Governor Andrew Porter arrived here
to-day, and tendered his services to the
authorities.
Everything is quiet in the neighborhood
of Gettysburg and Hanover Junction.
Great activity is being displayed in that
quarter to prevent any demonstration on
the lines of the Northern Central Rail
road.
A rebel operator at ten o'clock tonight
attached the wires at McConnellaburg and
opened communication with Pittsburgh.
He told a long story about Jenkins and
what he intended doing. No reliance is
placed in it.
It is reported here, and believed, that
Milroy has been relieved of his command.
It is known here co a certainty that 20
regiments of rebel infantry passed through
Chambersburg to day. They were moving
in this direction, and are undoubtedly
Ewell's corps, late Stonewall Jackson's.
Important matters are likely to trans•
pire to-morrow.
HARRIEBURG, June A.—Evening—The
city has been in a high state of excitement
all day.
News from up the valley show that the
rebels are advancing in this direction in
strong force.
No troops would be likely to venture so
far from the base of operations into an
enemy's country without a force sufficient
to act on the defensive. So far no oppo
sition has been made to their movement.
The rebels are now twelve miles from
Carlisle and still advancing.
Gen. Knipe, commanding the forces in
the valley, will probably give them battle
at that point.. The rebels will no doubt
appear iu front of that town to-morrow,
Our cavalry who fall back as the rebels
advance, have been unable to discover any
infantryyet, but there is no doubt a strong
force is in supporting distance.
A deserter- belonging to the 44th Geor
gia regiment arrived here to-day. He re•
ports that on Sunday night his regiment
was doing picket duty near Hagerstown,
and on Monday morning fifty of them de
serted and safely made their way to the
Mountains, where they remained all night.
Yesterday morning they all started for
Frederick City, hoping to make their way
to Baltimore, with the exception of this
man, who came to Gettysburg. He states
that Ewell's whole corps of six brigades
was at Hagerstown when he left. 1 hey
number about 12,000 men: The last brig
ade left Williamsport on Friday, arriving
at Hagerstown on the same day. Orders
were issued on the same day for the corps
to move at 5 o'clock on Monday morning.
It is believed that they are coming in this
direction supporting Jenkins' force of
cavalry.
Sixteen veterans of the war of 1812 to
day visited the Governor at the Capital
and tendered their services, which were
aicepted.
McCoNNELLeut . un, June 24 —The ea•
citement along the border remains unaba•
ted. Business is at a perfect stand still,
exposed constantly to the incursions of
rebel marauding bands. Farmers are
compelled to keep their horses concealed
in the mountains, and the prospects of
reaping the coining harvest is discourse
ging. The rebels are overrunning Frank.
lin county.
Two rebel deserters from a North Caro
lina regiment, belonging to Ewell's Corps,
came into our lines this morning. They
report the whole of that commander's
forces in Pennsylvania.
' The rebels are in force at gercersburg
and have driven in our pickets this side of
the town. It is thought that they will at
tempt to feel our strength this side of the
mountain.

THE rebel raid into Indiana turns on: to
have been a canard. A company of loyal
entucliians crossed the Ohio to look af
ter, the lanais who were,making an excur
eion in Indiana, and who were so hand
eomely gobbled. Out of this loyal invasion
grew the intrior'of another raid, and the
oftener the •story+ was told, the more the
wonder grew; until there were nine hun
dred ferocious rebele on the sacred soil of
our sister sovereign State.
General Grant has removed General
John A. McClernand from the command
of a corps in the Army of the Mississippi.
General McClernand ranked next to Gen.
Grant in that army, his Mhjor General's
commission dating from the battle of
Fort Donelson. He-has not been a favor
ite with the regular officers of the army,
and was blamed,we do not know with what
measure of justice or it justice, for the
failure before Vicksburg on the 22d of
May. We should not be surprised if the
immediate cause of the removal of Gene
ral McClernand was the publication of an
order of congratulation to his corps relating
to their exploits, in which there were ob
servations on the affair of the 221 of May,
susceptible of an unmilitary construction.
FROM WASHINGTON
Position of the Rebel Army Better
Understood
WASHINGTON, June 23.
The situation in front remains the same.
It is at last definitely settled that the main
part of the rebel army is in the Shenan
doah Valley. a portion of Ewell's corps
being in Maryland and Pennsylvania.—
Longstreet's and the two Hills' corps prob
ably lie in the Valley immediately in the
rear of the Central Gaps, in the Blue
Ridge. A. P. Hill's corps, it is believed.
did not move up the Valley till last week,
having remained at Culpepper, where Gen
eral Lee bad his headquarters on the 18th.
There are still no signs that the enemy
contemplates coming through the gaps for
a movement in Maryland across the Poto
mac fords below Harper's Ferry, or to ad
vance to Bull Run Mountain or Manassas
and force a battle.
The impression prevails here, founded
on best of reasons, that there is no truth
in the sensation dispatches that any con
side. able forF e is advancing into Penn
sylvania. Gen. [locker has issued an
order requesting conductors of newepa•
pers to refrain from publishing any thing
about the movements of his army, except
ing such matter as may be authorized by his
Adjutant, as in the case of Gen. Pleasan
ton's report of the battle on Sunday.
One hundred and forty rebels captured
at Middleburg on Sunday last, reached
here, and were sent to Old Capitol this
morning. Among them are fourteen com
missioned officers. Two hundred rebel
prisoners, now in Old Capitol, will be
sent South in a day or two for exchange.
EloolLer In Washington—lnquiry Into
N e nspaper Revelations—Milroy'.
Case to be Examined.
WASHINGTON, June 23
Gen. Hooker arrived in the city this
morning from his headquarters, and, after
an interview with the authorities, proceed
ed to return. He reports everything quiet
&inc.. , Pleasanton's cavalry fight.
Measures are being taken to discover
the origin of a general newspaper dis
patch, which, a few days since, gave the
exact location oft 3e army of the Potomac
to the public. It purported to be tele•
graphed from a Philadelphia paper, but
the jitirnal alluded to has denied its pub.
licatiou by them.
A court of inquiry is to hi' bad in Gen.
Milroy'a case. It is said to be alike de
manded by him and the authorities here.
Gen. Bunter arrived to night. He is
to remain in Washington for the present.
Pittaburgher Killed in Arizona
Thomas C. McClelland, the young man
who fell in the late gallant expedition
against the Apache Indians, noticed in
to day's paper, was a son of Mr. James
H. McClelland, architect, of this city.—
He left here in 1861, in company with Col.
Laney, to assist in managing the business
of a large silver mining company. The
death of Col. Colt, cf New York, led to
a suspension of the work on the mines,
which are situated a few miles from 'rue
son, Arizona ; and in March last Colonel
Lalley lett for the East, placing his busi•
nese in charge of young McClelland, to
gether with the clerk of the works. It
appears that the Apaches had been fre•
quently troublesome to the settlement,
and a company of civilians, of which Mc-
Clelland was one, bad volunteered to as
sist in chastising them, but he usfortu
nately f, 11 mortally wounded in the con
flict.
