RIGHT OR WROXG. THES EIGHT, TO BE KEPT EIGHT, WHEN WRONG, TO BE PDT RIO HT. EBEXSUURG: THURSDAY:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::JULY 2. . Tbe Situation. The following article upon the present pituation, we copy from the New York Tribune of the 29th inst. : There is now no remaining doubt that the rebel army of Gen. Lee, One Hundred Thousand strong, is nearly or quite all thia side the Potomac. Gen. Meade's Union army is where it should be to cover Washington and Baltimore, and meet Lim. The rebels occupy most of Western Marvland that is to say, so much of it as lies between the western slope of the South Mountains and Cumberland and are treating it rather tenderly, being anxious to conciliate its people. They also occupy a considerable section of Southern Pennsylvania, from Gettys burg on the East to a point near McCon nellsburg on the West, and are stripping it very clean of Horses, Cattle, Grain, Flour," Groceries, Dry Goods, Medicines, and whatever else they can convert to any use. They are living immensely better than they have done for many months back. In short, they find the accommo dations so good that they have half a mind to stay. . Pittsburg .and the West do not seem to be threatened at pre?cnt, whicb exemption we attribute to the enrgy and spirit wherewith they rallied to their own defence, and set to fortifying, arming, drilling, &c. Had Eastern Pennsylvania promptly evinced equal pluck, she, too, would have been safe. The rebels have thoroughly destroyed the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad for a distance of sixty or seventy miles, so that it cannot be restored savo at a great cost, and with a considerable sacrifice of time. - They have more recently broken up tlje Railroad running from Harrisburg to Baltimore, having torn up the rails at Hanover J unction and possibly at York for that purpose. A single line of Railroad the Phil adelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore now connects the loyal estates wun u asn iugton and the Uuion Government and the Army of the Potomac. A bloody arxl momentous collision may be imminent, and may ccur at any mo ment. We judge that the rebels have made "this hazardous advance under the impres sion that our chief Army is demoralized, and not in fighting spirits. We trust that they may rue this presumption. We do not believe Lee intends to push much further thfs way at present, but rather to take the Union Army at a dis advantage and beat it, after which he will determine whether to advance to Phila delphia or turn upoD Baltimore and Washington. But we shall soon see. lVarScws, Dispatches from the army of the Poto mac, dated June 27th, state that it will Foon be to the front and north of Baltimore. The heavy rains have made the roads so bad that the movements are necessarily very slow. Harrisburg. June 27. Carlisle was occupied about 10 o'clock this morning by the rebels. Our cavalry force is gradually retiring. The rebels evacuated M'Connelhburg at nine o'clock yesterday morning. On Thursday evening their pickets were driv en in "by a detachment of the 1st N. Y cavalry, under Maj. Adams, causing quite an alarm among them. The cause cf their retreat is supposed to the fear of a flank movement an operatioa for which the country offers great facilities. The rebels were about 5,000 strong, under command of Gen. Stuart. They retreated in the direction of Chambcrsburg, aud will to-day re-enforce their forces that arc menacing Harrisburg. A destructive raid was made through the lower part of that county by a body of Imboden's men. They paid no respect to any kind of property whatever, and what tbey could not carry away they destroyed. " A skirmish occurred in Wrightsville, opposite Columbia, on the 28th inst. Col. Frick's men fought the enemy gallantly, till' surrounded and overpowered. Over one hundred men were captured, and the xesl retreated, across across the bridge. The bridge was then fired by our men 0 pTorcut the rebel cresting. Proclamation by the Gover norSixty Thousand Three Mouths' 3Jeii Called Tor. IIarrisbtjro, June 26. The follow ing important proclamation of the Gover nor has just been issued : PENNSYLVANIAN3 ! In the name and by the authority of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I, Andrew G. Curtin, Governor of the eaid Commonwealth, A Proclamation. The enemy is advancing in force into Pennsylvania. He has a strong column within twenty-three miles of Harrisbarg, and other columns are moving by Fulton and Adams counties, and it can no longer be doubted that a formidable invasion of our State is in actual progress. The calls already made for volunteer militia, in the exigency, have not been met as fully as the crisis requires. I therefore now issue this my procla mation calling for sixty thousand men, to come promptly forward, to defend the State. They will be mustered into the service of the State for the period of nine ty days, but will be required to serve only so much of the period of muster as the safety of our people and honor of our State may require. They will rendezvous at points to be designated in the general order to be issued this day by the Adjt. General of Pennsylvania, which order will also set forth the details of the arrangements for organization, clothing, subsistence, equipments, and supplies. I will not insult you by inflammatory appeals. A people who want the heart to defend their soil, their families, and their fire-sides, are not worthy to be accounted men. Heed not the counsels of evil-disposed persons, if such there be in your midst. Show yourselves what you are a free, loyal, spirited, brave, vigorous race. Do not undergo the dis grace ofMeaving your defence mainly to the citizens of other States. In defend ing the soil of Pennsylvania we are contributing to the support of our National Government, and vindicating our fidelity to the national cause. Penn sylvania has always, heretofore, responded promptly to all the calls made by the Federal Government, and I appeal to you, now, not to be uomindful that the foe that strikes at our State, striken through our desolation at the life of the Republic. Our people are plundered and driven from their homes solely because of their loyalty and fidelity to our free institu tions. People of Pennsylvania, I owe to you all my faculties, my labors, my life. You owe to your country your prompt and zealous services and efforts. The time has now come when we must all stand or fall together in the defence of our State and in the support of our Government. Let us so discharge our duty that posterity shall not blush for us. Come heartily and cheerfully to the rescue of our noble Commonwealth. Maintain now your honor and freedom. Given under my hand and the great seal of the State, at Harrisburg, this the 26th day of June, in the year of our Lord .-one thousaud eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Commonwealth the eighty-seventh.

Hooker issued the following address : :In conformity with orders from the War Department, dated June 27th, I relinquish the command of the army of the Potomac. It is transferred to Major General George B. Meade, a brave and accomplished officer, who has nobly earned the confidence and esteem of the army on many well-fought fields. Impressed with the belief that my usefulness as comman der of the army of the Potomac is impair ed, I part from it, yet not without the deepest emotion, but the sorrow of parting with comrades of so many battles, is re lieved by the conviction that the courage and devotion of this army will never cease nor fail ; that it will yield to ray successor (as it has to me,) a hearty and wiliing support. With the earnest prayer that the triumph of its arms may bring success es worthy of it and the nation, 1 bid it farewell. Joseph Hooker." This was followed by an address from General Meade, dated Headquarters Army of the Potomac, June 28th, 1863: "By direction of the President of the United States, I hereby assume command of the Army of the Potomac. As a sold ier, in obeying this order, an order totally unexpected and unsolicited, I havo no promises or pledges to make. The country looks to the army to relieve it from the devastation and disgrace of hostile invasion. Whatever sacrifices we may be called upon to undergo, let us have in view constantly the magnitude of the interests involved, and let each man be determined to do his duty, leaving to an all-controlling Provi dence the direction of the contest. It is with just diffidence that I relieve in com mand of this army an eminent and accom plished soldier, whose name must ever appear conspicuous in the history of its achievements, but I rely upon the hearty support of ray comrades iu arms, to assist me in the discharge of the duties of this important trust which has been confided to me. ' GEO. G. MEADE, Maj. Gen. Com. Capt. Coulter, Provost Marshal of the 21st district, arrested a man named John Lawson, at Ligonier, Westmoreland county, on the charge of being a rebel spy- He was arrested on his return from Cumberland, whither, according to his own statement, he had been to obtain em ployment. Capt. Coulter was disposed to disbelieve his statement, and accordingly placed him under' arrest. He was turned over to U. S. Marshal Murdoch, and lodged - ijr in the Pittsburg jail to await a heai'mj. 1 Gen. Splnola's Address. Hiad Quarters "Ketstonk Beigadk,; Washington, N. C. May 23, 18G3. Address : I avail myself of this opportunity of saying to the officers and men of the Keystone Brigade that the time has arrived for me to take my leave of you; and, as your term of service will soon expire, many of you, I presume, will abandon the scenes and excitement of the battle-field again to assume your usual pursuits of industry. In parting allow me to assure you that I entertaiu an exalted opinion of you, both as officers and soldiers; and, in my official character, I thank you for the prompt and cheerful manner in which you have ever performed your arduous and dangerous duties, and shall always look back upon my associ ation with you a3 among the pleasantest hours of my life. You were put under my command at a time when you were fresh from your native State, and, with a few exceptions, entirely unacquainted with the toils and dangers of war : you were placed in no "school of instruction" but marched directly to the front, where you have remained performing your duty in a manner reflecting great credit on your self and great honor upon your State. Youi march from Suffolk, Va., to New bern, N. C, has no equal since the war began except in General Banks' retreat from Winchester, and that differed from yours in this important particular yours was toward the enemy, his was jrom them : Your conduct at Mill Creek and YVhite Oak River was equal to that of veteran troops : Your march to Pollocksville, for the purpose of encompassing the ene my at the second battle of Newbern, developed your powers of endurance, and, at once, gave you a prominent place among the best troops in the service. While aboard of the transports in front of the Rebel batteries on the I amphco River you were both willing and auxious to incur any risk, or to encounter any danger necessary to relieve the beleaguered city of Washington, N. C, and no troops in the army could have manifested greater willingness to make any necessary sacrifice to reinforce the garrison and to relieve it from the perils which surrounded it : but authority higher than cither you or me checked your patriotic desires. Your conduct at Blount9 Creek fully developed your impetuous desires to encounter the enemy, and no soldier ever retired from the battle-field with greater reluctance, after it had been demonstrated that the column could not advance owing to the destruction of the bridges which crossed the stream. Your rcconnoissance to "New Hope School-house" was all that could have been asked of any troops ; it was a success in every particular. Your march to, and occupancy of Swift Creek Village, with its accompanying sharp skirmishing, as you approached the place and drove the Rebels froai it in precipitate flight, at the dead hour of night, were worthy of the "Old Guard" of Napoleon. Your conduct throughout has been of a character that has placed the Brigade in an enviable position : intemperance and immoral practices, as well as vice in its various forms, have been strangers to the Officers and Soldiers of the Keystone Brigade. Instead of participating and indulging in the practices which are so prevalent anddemor'alizingamongsoldiers, you have invariably been found on the Sabbath day joining with each other in prayer and uniting your voices iu singing praises to the Great Ruler of all. No cause can fail my Countrymen, when supported by such men as constitute the Keystone Brigade ! You have done your whole duty to your Country, to your State, and to your families, in a mauner that no man among you need be ashamed to acknowledge that he is one of the Keystone Brigade, while the authoritiey of your State can, with pride, point to you as an emulation for others who are to follow you to the field ? We are called upon to make some sacrifices in times like the present, buc the American, who would not obey the call of his Country in her hour of peri!, is unworthy of enjoying the benefits and blessings of a free government, which cost many lives and much treasure to establish. No army ever suffered like that of Wash ington I No men ever bore their suffer ings with less murmuring than the brave patriots who pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honors, that you and I might enjoy civil and religious liberty ! You need go no further than your own home to find the spot that gave shelter to the Father of his Country, together with eleven thousand famishing patriots who wintered at Valley Forge, to which place they were traced by the blood which oozed from their uushod feet ! At the expiration of your term of ser vice it is fair to presume that many cf you, from ago and other causes, will not again enter it : but, in the name of Liberty and a bleeding Country, I not only appeal to the youug men of the Brigade to enlist again, buf, I implore you, in the name of the men who suffered every conceivable hardship and privation in order to show to the despots of the world that man is capable of self government, that you will prove yourself the proud representatives of the patriots of '76, and never quit the field until this diabolical attempt, to destroy the government which Washing ton and his. associates gave us, has been ploughed out by the roots.
