Among the rumors prevalent were the deaths of Gens. Kelley and Averill and (Joh Mulligan. As tar as ascertained, Gen. Averill, after his successful en counter with Early's forces pursued them to the mountains beyond Winches ter, Where Early made a stand, and after heavy fighting on Saturday and Sunday, the rebels in the meantime hav ing been reinforced, Averill was compel led to tall back to Harper's Ferry, bring ing with hint the forces at Bunker Hill, and causing also the evacuation of Mar tinsburg. The rebels pursued, and yesterday afternoon: occupied Martinsburg, where they cut the telegraph wires and com menced to destroy the track of the Bal timore and Ohio Railroad. Our forces, according to the best advices we could obtain, are concentrating at Harper's Ferry under 111/titer. It is rumored that the rebels arc in large force, but this can hardly be pos sible, beyond the strength of the forces under Early and Breckintidge.

The fighting is described as having been terrific, the r, bids making repented charges with the bayonet, each time being repulsed with much slaughter and finally driven into !heir fortifications. The rebels destroyed all their immense depots of provisions in Atlanta, and it is believed were retreating the Macon road. Our cavalry would probably in tercept their retreat long enough to en- able our infantry to come up.

The Victory at Atlanta NEW YORK, July 26.—A Herald's special dated Washington, says: The reports of the tights at Atlanta are re garded here as highly satisfactory, and indicative of a much more substantial victory than the mere Occupation of that city would have been.

FROM BALTIMORE. RUMORS GREATLY EXAGGERATED Averill Compelled to Fall Back Communication Forbidden Statements of Refugees BALTIMORE, July 20, p. m.—The ev ening edition of the American publishes the following: We have been able to ascertain this morning nothing definite with regard to the rebel movements at Martinsburg, and along the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, further than that most of the exciting stories in circulation on Monday were either unfounded or greatly exaggerated. As far as we can ascertain this morning, Averill has not been killed, but was compelled to fall back to the Potomac, and from thence through Martinsburg to Williamsport, Md., carrying with him the entire gar- rison at that point. Whether the rebels occupied Martinsburg last night is not known, but of 'its evacuation there gems to be Iln doubt. This morning, the trains to Frederick and Washington went nut as usual, and a train for Sandy Hook left at 7.45 a. m. The suspension of telegraphic opera thins last night is said to have been caused by storm. Hunter has, howev er forbidden all telegraphic communi cation with Harper's Ferry, and, of course, we have nothing definite from that ci ittity. The American's Point Lrokout cor respondent says during last week there were large arrivals here of refugees from the South, consisting of old men, women and children. These people say that the authorities at Richmond grant passes to all women and children and old men who wish to come North. Sonic of these refugees say that when crossing the Rappahannock, they heard that Sheridan had attacked Early in his retreat, and captured hack a large num ber of cattle and wagons. The * fight was said to have taken place near Staunton. An Important Communication The Surrender of Brownsville Texas, Demanded, Gen.

He is said to he an enterprising soldier, and has 7,000 troops, all Texans, except one thousand, who are Mexican outlaws and renegades. Gen. Herron, com manding at Brownsville, is said to be strongly entrenched, and has a force ca pable of taking the offensive, if neces sary. Gen.

The Government's Preparations, &c., &o NEW YORK, July 25.—Special dis patches state that the Government, ex pecting a return of the rebel invaders made preparations to prevent a serious incursion into Maryland and Pennsyl- It is believed that the plunder lately obtained has been deposited in the Shen andoah Valley to supply a formidable force to be sent northward. Others think this new demonstration is only to detain the 6th corps from Grant. If the opinion of Solicitor Whiting denying the exemption of 100 day men is adhered to, disaffection will arise in Massachusetts, as Gov. Andrew ordered proceedings under the impression that those enlisting would not be liable to draft until the expiration of the term of service. Important Order from the Pro- vost Marshal General Po t'an HERM; July 26.—The follow ng has just been received here: WAR DEP'T, P. M. G.'s OFFICE, WASHINGTON, July 25. 7o (leo. Furness, Mayor of Poughkeepsie. SIR: My dispatch in answer to your telegram of the 20th, should have read: Volunteers under the present call will be credited man for man, whether they enlist for one, two or three years. When they enlist for the shorter terms, more men may be required at the expiration of their terms to equalize the amount of military services among the different States and parts of States. I am sir, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, J. &WRY, Pro. Mar. G. From Harrisburg HARRIBBIIRO, July 26.—Gen. Conch has advised the State authorities to re. ceive all companies tendered for one year's service, andlo attach them tem porarily to the organizations of 100 day's men. All is quiet on the Upper Potomac to-day. New York State Quota. ALBANY, Ally 26 .—The - quota of thEi State under the last call for 500,000 men; is stated at 89,318 men. Early in the Shenandoah Valley, THE UNION TROOPS DEFEATED Rebels Advance on Harper's Ferry, Mulligan's Death not Confirmed Nicw YORK, July 26.-LThe Washing ton dispatches say that the rebel rain ing forces under Early moved through the Gaps on Sunday morning into the Shenandoah Valley. Here they en countered the force of Gen. Averill and Crook, and also a part of the command of Hunter. A battle took place, in which the Union troops were defeated and compelled to retreat. Gen. Averill lost heavily. The rebel force greatly outnumbered that of the Federate. Yes terday, Gen. Early occupied Martins burg, and advanced with several thous sand men towards Harper's Ferry. No intelligence of their crossing into Mary land has been received. The move ment has been made evidently under the impression that our troops had been withdrawn. Our troops in this Department have been moved to points where they will be likely to pievent any such raid as the recent one. There is a report of the death of Col. Mulligan, but it is not yet confirmed. A dispstch from Gen. Hunter, at Harper's Ferry, states that he knows nothing about it, and it is hoped the rumor is in correct. There is good reason to believe that Early's forces will not cross into Mary land in this direction. They may, how ever, attempt an irruption into Penn sylvania. The Lincoln and Johnston Red( cation Meeting. Pol. Draper's Expedition a Success Sm. Louis. July 2G.—The Lincoln and Johnson ratification meeting last night was very largely attended. Speeches were made by James H. Lane of Kansas, and several other gentlemen. Strong anti-slavery and patriotic resolutions were passed. The . Democrat's (St. Jo seph) special says the upper counties tinned out a very large number of men umler Gea. Fiske's order. Many mill- tia have already taken the field. The expedition under Col. Draper, returned here after being in saddle nearly two weeks, they killed about one hundred guerrillas. Maj. Hugh Fullerton. has been nominated for Congress by Union ists in the ninth district, Illinois. Further of the Rebel Raid WASHINGTON, July 26.—Late dispatch es from . Harper's Ferry, state that the rebels have not menaced that place, and are not nearer the Potomac than Mar tinsburg. The Government has dispatches from Atlanta to-day. They announce that Sherman's operations are progressing favorably. The rebels have not recov ered from the blow received on Friday. - - - - - - Allegheny Bank, Exchange Bank, Citizens Bank.
