• A BRAVE SPIRIT FALLEN.—We
learn , from a private • letter that Davin H.
WOLFF, 'son of Mr. pireid Wolfe, residing
on thc. Welsh RunOn-this-countyi--and-a
member of Co. A, 2nd Provisional Artillery,
was ,mortally wounded in Virginia on the
17th tilt:, while gallantly charging the one ,
mitts line. He was Orderly gergeaut, but at
the time was in command of the company,
his officers being wounded. He had been
- twice wounded (in the anti: and •leg) and
was in the•act of grasping the .rebel colors
when he received a wound in the stomache
and survived but a few minutes. He form
erly belonged to Co. 0, 26th Reg. Fa. Yols.
He was mtnost excellent young man, and was
beloved by all for his bravery as well as his
kind and gentle disposition. Our inform
ant states that his body was kindly cared for
by the company and his grave marked.

DESISTING TUB REBELS.—We learn
from a gentleman from Wolfsville,-. that Mr. ,
Geo. Blessing, a fernier, residing - near Myare•
%lite, in Frederick county,. successfully de•
fended his property froin rebel maraudera
during the raid Into that region. It appears
that be collected a number of guns, ,and
with his son, yet a lad,, teek a position. -near
• •s
-barn, where he held at one time hei many
as twenty.rebel horsemen 'at bay; convening
them finally i to,rctrea!with one of th e
and:.n Elegikoori:ously , wounded.
Our informant states -that-Mri

Union man, and the 'okay atilvelAddr
district. Such fortitude and.courage undor
the circumstances will find few parallels.,
WORK OF THE REBELS.—The press
and fittures'Ortlie Boonsboro' Odd Fellow
were smashed, and the 'typo scattered in the.
street by the rebels during their stay in that
place. *The Odd Fellow was a' spirited ra
per and thoroughly Union. No troubt - the.
wore instigated to the.act by,lome traitors.
A large steam distillery, near William
sport, belonging to Mrs. Dahl, was fired . and
and also destro , ed b • them.

RNMOVAL OF &TAPE WORM.—One
ofthevi3ost remarkable . cases we have ever
heard of, says the Vork . Press, in medieill
practice, occurred in that borough on the
26th ult. It consisted id the successful re•
moval of what is known in medical science
as a bqihricieeph;ilus lotus from a patient by
the name of Theresa Ilerwedel. Dr. yeis ; ,
tel, of New Salem, vies the physician in at
tendance, and after considerable careful at•
tention to the case, succeeded in" removing
the tape worm whole, in a whet state, and
measuring ninetyfecf / The time occupied
in effecting the removarwas three hours.- 7
Strange to say the patient was well enough
on the following to resume her nitlinatil
avocations.
A iREMA.RKABLE MAN.—The Mer

By the Prositlept, _
11...SEwmp), SqeFettiry of State
Destruction of the Alithaina
Scateely an event, except that of a deci.
Es)vo victory won . in, the field by one of our
great armies, could have brought more pleas
ure to the loyal heart of the nation than that
Which our foreign advices record—the des
truction of the Rebel pirate steamer Alabama
by the United States gunboat Kearsage.—
The point ofregret in this brilliant affair is
that the destruction of the entire pirate crew
was not as complete as that of the ship, and
especially. that Semmes, through a despica
ble trick .on the part 'of the : commander of the
British yacht Deerhound; 'was enabled to
obtain the proteetion.:of the:English flag.
The Alabama, under the command of Setn
mes,.bris preyed upon 'our Commerce for more
than two years past, and has destroyed mil
lions of dollars worth of property. Sneak
ing from port 'to port, availing. himself of the
roasi-neutrality of foreign nations, always
heretofore cowardly running away from our
armed vessels, Semmes has burned some six
, I 1 etschrorataing-the-r
lion of a pirate without its usual reward and
whilst demoniac , our coumnerce- has not in
'the leat aide% the Rebel cause:. Under what
peculiar influence he abandoned this -course
or destruction against vesr*ls unable to resist,
and sought a conflict with the' Rearsage, it
is difficult to:'conjecture. • b•lost probably he
ad,g-r-ow-u-disgusted--with-the-bad-notoriety
that had gathered round his name,,and, not

ADVANCE OF . GEN. SHERMAN.
Atlanta within Reach of hts Giinsy
-
WASHINGTON, July JoaerEl-
Meta IS iti receipt this morning of glorious
news frOM 'defiers' Sher Man. It hafot news
of a battle, but something better.,' ,
General Sherman ancounoes that on yes..
tardily, - having previbUsly crc - 6 - led'the Chat
tahoochle river, his whole army advanoed
five miles south of' the river, and crossed
. ~ •
Peach Tree crook. -
• Th ie. advance was made without'afaresis.:
Lame from Johnson's army, except, slight. ;
skirmishing with his rear as he retired.
This movement necessarily forced Johnson
I'oo4 defence,s of. Atlante,and places the
city within range of ',Sherman's . guns, the
distance, according:to:the Maibefore us, be
ing about two and a half
. - or throe miles,—
The importance of this movement may be
better understaod after reading the' extracts
from. the Richmond. Whig, of the 14th lust ;
and the Atlanta Confederacy of the 10th
inst., in which . it is conceded that the cross
ing of the Chattahoochio river by Sherman
is the last important point , for him to, gain ;
that to do this is to , as . s the Ailbl i cen; : " that
it is his greatest peril,, and , think overcome,
the city of Atlanta must fall.. , .
This is the rebel view of the situation in
Georgia.' .With the official naves of, Sher
man's splendid advance yesterday to, the 'de
fences of the city, we certainly have occasion
to rejoice with exceeding great joy.
NEW Yortx, July 19.—A special despatch
from Nashvillo says the report about. Atlan
ta being occupied by our troops is without
foundation. All kinds of rumors are afloat
regarding the evacuation of Atlanta.: Re
ports say that during the. delay of General
Sherman at the river the .enemy had been
enabled to get away his valuables, but in op.
:ositien-te-this, it is well known than they
had been sent weeks ago to Augusta. The
1- evacuation of Atlanta -reallr began-several
•
wee -s ago.-
General- Sherman yesterday moved out of
his works on the South side of the Chatta
hoochie to attack Johnson's forces if found
in front of them, or to occupy the eity.in-the
