NEW ALBANY; hid., July, 27,1862.--
The Ledger sayi the Rebels have congre
! gated in considerable force at Halvesville,
Ky., -and boldly and defiantly insulted
the Union citizens. The Union ram
Hornet, with troops, has gone there:
'Henderson and wensboro' were quiet:
on Friday, and both towns strongly gar
, risoned with Union troops, w ho arrest
all pervons who talk or act in favor of the
rebellion. •
The "military prisons at Louisville are
so full that daily commitments are made
to the Jeffersonville, Ind., Penitentiary.
• Passengers from Henderson say the
guerrillas have appeared with a pretty
-strong force opposite Mound City, and it
was feared they would attempt to burn
the Union gunboats building there.
'A large number of ladies from Albany
have proposed to act as clerks and, sales
woo for the young men of that pia& who
will, enlist, and give them half their sala
ries while they are absent, and surrender
their positions to them on their return.
•
Cul. 'McNeil, with a detachment of
Union troops, had a fight with Porter's
gang of 'guerrillas, near Memphis, Mo.,
a few days since, in which the Rebels
were badly whipped. Our loss was 15
killed and 30 wounded - and missing. The
Rebel loss was much greater. Twenty
three of their dead were left on the'field.
We learn from Gen. Pope's army that
in consequence of the firing upon his or
&Lica by guerrillas, he lyid arresedeight
Virginians, whom, we presume, are held
ft, hostages for better behavior.
To obviate the scarcity of small change
Congress passed an act making postage
'tamps a legal tender
,for sums less than,
five dollars, and also prohibiting the issu•
ing of shinplasters of less than one dol
lar. It is understood that goverament
will issue stamps printed upon stout pa
per and without mucilage.
Printer's Ink, strange to say, is entirely
exempt from taxation, under the: new tax
bill. Our representatives no doubt tho't
they were so much indebtdd to this att.;
Oe for their political promotion, that com
mon gratitude induced them to pass it over.
