THE Dispatch of Monday pays the fol lowing just compliment to Sergeant John Stuckrath, son of Ex Mayor Stuckrath of Allegheny city. We knew him well and can cheerfully endorse what our neigh bor says : "A GALLANT SOLDIER. GCSE.-A letter from Vicksburg, Miss.,under date of Aug 16th, conveyed to his friend; the melan choly intelligence of the death of Sergeant John Stuckrath, of the Missouri Battery, volunteer artillery, and son of ex Mayor Jacob Stuckrath, of Allegheny. Mr. Stuckrath volunteered on the breaking out of the rebellion as a private in Compa. ny K, Ninth Penna. Reserves, Captain Fleming, and served with credit in That company. participating in the battle of Drainsville and upotethe Peninsula, until taken prisoner at Malvern Hill. He was taken into Richmond and remained there four weeks, when he was only exchanged. Soon after- returning to his company he re ceived a discharge for the purpose of ac cepting a commission, and returned home to take a position in the Stanton Artillery. Some difficulty arose in the company inregard to the selection of officers, and to avoid any disturbance, and at the same time carry out the spirit ol his engagement with the government, Mr. Stuckrath entered the ranks in the oat tem and proceeded with it. to Camden, N. J.' and thence to St. Louis, where it was subsequently merged i the Missouri Battery. His battery was actively em ployed during the entire campaign against Vicksburg, and participated during the siege. The climate, however, proved fa tal to his constitution, and after a linger. ing illness he died in the hospital boat, Woodford, universally regretted by his ccmpanions. Sergt. Stuckrath was in his twenty-second year, and that the same manly spirit which prompted his re-enlist ment, against the advice of friends, re mained with him to the last, m.ty be in: ferred from the contents of the letter announcing his decease to his parents. The writer says : With a large deputs,tion of his personal friends I attended the closing ceremonies, and had him decently intered on the bank of the river, beside a host of brave boys who shed their blood and yielded np their lives tor their country. * • * We feel keenly our loss. We loved your son; we admired his bravery and his soldierly bearing, and tender to you condolence in your bereavement, Be assured. sir, that the memory of Sergeant John Stuckrath holds a prominent place in the breast of every brother soldier of our battery COMMITTEE FOR THE LAWREN'E ScF• FErtkftS —The following are the names of the Committee to receive subscrip , ions for the sufferers of the late Lawrence mas sacre: First Ward—A.

His hat was stolen and his pant's pocket torn open. On his person were fifty dollars, which we believe were not taken. OlEter Glenn arrested the accused.

NEW Fire Raging at East Boston WASHINGTON, August 31.—The Navy Department has received information of the capture of tie brig Atlantic by the United States steamer Princess Royal, off the Rio Grande, Mexico. From the state ment of Acting Master Chase, lase in command of the gunboat Antonia, it ap- pears th© Atlanta had cotton on board direct 1;om the Texas shore, and the Cap tain of the brig told him he would swear to the fact, and if n private interview could be granted it would be to the ad vantage of the United States Government. The cause of the Captain's singular pro ceeding was, he says, in consequence of a misunderstanding between him and the rarties chartering the vessels, and he says he was taken to Key West, in this same Atlantic, while bound for Texas by a United States vessel as a prize, and laid there 30 days, but was smart enough to fool the authorities there, notwith standing he had contraband of war on board he escaped from there, sued the United States government and obtained judgements for $lO,OOO. He then went off and delivered his cargo, which went into Brownsville, Texas, via Matamoras. The Captain of the vessel further said, if you don't look out I will fool you again. I have been in such business a long time, having run the blockade during the Ras elan war, and if you are not very sharp, I will get to the windward of you again FORTRESS MONROE, August n.—The steamer S, W. Thomas arrived this morn lug trom Newbern, N. C. Our corres pondent writes from Beaufort, N. C. Aug. 21ith, that officers from the Wilmington blockading squadron have arrived there with important intelligence.

Three thousand Yankees are moving from Zi23o city towards Benton.

The Yankee cavalry came up to their astdstance and our men retired. .lAcKsoN, August T. -The Yankees are in force tour miles below Raymond. We have no news from the front. ST. LOT'''. August :31,—The delegate, to the Union Mass Conventirn to be held in .leirerson City tomorrow, are arriving from all parts of the State, and the pros. peels are that it will be the largest meeting ever assembled in the S ate. The Democrat's Springfield dispatch says: President Lincoln has written a letter which will be read at the Union meeting to be held there on the 3d of September, and states that its perusal will gladden the hearts of every true Union man in the country, and vindicate the President's fame and character, and he the key note of the next Presidential campaign. Edward Everett also has writ ten a letter strongly urging the proeecu• tion of the war. The meeting on the 31:1 promises to be immense. Twenty•seven thousand people are expected to arrive by the Chicago and St. Louis railroad alone. New YORK, Aug al.—Richmond papers of 29:1 contain the following. Six hundred Yankee cavalry advanced up the Peninsula on Thursday as far as New Kent Court House. A detachment came later in the day to the vicinity of the Bottom's Bridge, over the Chickahominy, 15 mites below Richmond. At this point they exchanged a few shots with our pick ets, and it is said several on each side were killed and wounded, We du not think that much blood was spilled. Our pickets were, however, driven in, but before re tiring they removed the floor of the bridge, and prevented the farther advance of the enemy in that direction. It is by no means certain that the Yan kees designed to extend their recconnois sauce this side of the Chickahominy, as they made no attempt to do so, but re turned down the Peninsula. Whether they came from Williamsburg, or were landed from transports at the White House. we have not ascertained. An officer of General Elsey's staff, who returned yesterday from a scout as far as New Kent Court House, reports that he saw no indications of a hostile force, but was informed at the Court House that 600 had visited that place .on Thursday. The strength of the invaders was greatly exaggerated by the first reports which reached the city. PHILLELPIiId, August 80.—The rebel papers of the 29th announce the death of John B.

The Cork Herald had previously announced her expected arrival at Queens town to affect shipments of men, and at the instance of the United States Consul notice had been posted by the Post Admi ral warning the people against any breach of the foreign enlistment act. It is re• ported that war vessels were ready to pre vent any illegality. The destruction of the American ship Nash by a privateer off Gibraltar is con. &c. &c firmed. The parties interested in the steamer Peterhoff unequivocally stated the points as stated by Judge Buts were proved, and say they can substantiate their case. A law case had been on trial clearly show ing that the Petcrhoff had been previously engaged in Carrying contraband goods. The confederate loan declined 270%2 discount The Mexican and Polish questions are in etatu quo. The notes of France and England to Russia are represented as quite pacific.

It is not known how much they were dam• aged, arid it will not be ascertained for some time. The destruction of machinery will cause delay in finishing the turrets, and will throw temporarily out of employ ment a large number of mechanics. The turrets are valued at s4lt,otto each. The total loss is estimated at $:100 000, about half of which was insured. LOUISA' T. 1.11, August ; , 1 - Bands of guerrillas, from one to two hundred strong. have recently appeared in Cliutcn, Mon roe and Cumberland Counties.

About ton guerrillas passed through Pound Gar on Saturday. Accounts of damage done to the tobac- co by the recent frosts, are conflicting.— It is undoubtedly much damaged in cer tain sections, but in the vicinity of Lexing- ton the damage is confined to the low lands, where the staple is only lightened. KANSAS CITT, August ;:l.—Lieut.. Col. Clark of the 9th Kansas cavalry, returned last evening from the pur2uit of Quantrill, through Jackson, Cass and J ohnson coup• ties.
