(Arrtnt Btivs. The War.—The rebel raid, which was duly chronicled last week, is at an end. The enemy, whose retreat commended on Wednesday, July 13, as already recorded, has oonliniied to retire, our forces pursuing. The rebels seem to have been aucoessful in carrying off the large stores they had obtained during the foray, the losses of our citizens and Government being estimated at four millions of dollarg. The raiders are believed to have divided their forces into various detachments, in order more readily to escape pursuit on their various routes toward the South. Some of these detachments are driving before them Immense droves of cat tle, horses, and mules, with long trains of wag.. one laden with the spoils of their expedition. The latest Intelligence from the raid is to the effect that on Sunday, July 17, eighty wagons heavily laden with corn and oats were re-cap tured from the rebels at Leesburg, Va., together with a hundred of the rebel escort. About 700 rebel prisoners in all have been taken. Extracts from late Richmond papers would go to show that the mass of the people there were as ignor ant of the scope of the late incursion, as the citi zens of Maryland and . Pennsylvania, but were jubilant over exaggerated reports of its success. Ali the railroads injured by the raiders, with the exception of the Baltimore and Ohio, are again in running order, the damages inflicted being much less than was first supposed. The inva ding force is now estimated at 29,000. The escape of Gene. Franklin and Tyler, which we mentioned as a rumor-last weekoa confirmed. Of the relative losses on both sides, in killed, wounded and prisoners, no accurate estimate can yet be formed. if the leesone which this most successful of all the rebel raids should teach us, be only profitably improved, we may yet derive important advantages from the dearly purchased experience. From Gen. Grant's army there are but few items of interest of late date. On the morning of the 17th inst. a battery of two rifled guns opened suddenly on our fleet in the James river. Our response was not very effective, owing to the elevated position of the rebel battery. Meas ures have been taken to pat a stop to similar at tacks upon our vessels. Gen. Foster still holds his entrenched position on the right bank of the James. Two rebel magatinea Itere etploded by Itertar ghetto from the batteries on our right on Sear day evening, July 16th. The explosions could be distinctly seen from our. Ilnee. An informal ilffaißLlOG has been observed -for some days by the tioketa on both hides in front of our left, In front of oar centre and right, _however, artillery and musketry firing continues steadily, night and day. The practice of 'the rebel artillerists, heretofore very poor, has improved lately. Dur ing the last month their shot and shell have not killed over a dozen of our men From Oen.. Sherman's army we have intelli gence that while our forces have crossed the Chattahoochee, they had not; at the date of the last reports, adfanoed much beyond the southern bank of the river. No vigorous attempt had been made to pursue the rebels, though reports come that large captures of prisoners have been made. At last accounts our forces - were still strongly and securely entrenched at the Chatta hoochee. 'Rebel papers itariait the possibility of the fall of Atlanta, and represent the deplorable consequences of such an event. The Atlanta Confederac - y his the following:- 1 4We shall not attempt to lull the fancied securi ty of our readers by the declaration that Atlanta le not in imminent danger and peril. lis capture however cannot be considered a foregone conclu sion. [f Gen, Johnson cannot make a successful battle or hold the enemy in check along the Chat tahoochee, he cannot anywhere below it; and t ie only temporary cheek in that event would be the capture of Atlanta, ptirpliselithfewn at the feet of the rapacious invaders to slake their ap petite for conquest. We have no doubt that the Federal General would be satisfied with the cap tare of Atlanta and garrison, and fortify it an a basis of future - opprations. Oa Saturday morning, July 16, a large' rebel force, said to be under command of Forrest, cap tured the stockade at Brovrnsboro', on the Mem phis and Charleston Railroad. It was garrisoned by one hundred men, most of whom escaped. The rebels then moved on Huntsville, Ala., and after a sharp skirmish drove in the Federal pick els. Our troops number some five thousand, and are strongly fortified. The rebel force is esti mated at from eight to ten thousand. Additional troops have been forwarded for the succor of Huntsville. - The report of inUber.rebel invasion of . Ken tuoky through Pound Gap, is contiadieted. Gen. Burbridge bas issued a retaliatory order for cru elties perpetrated on Union citizens of Rentuck4 for saoh Union man murdered four guerrillas to be executed near the. Beene of the entrap.

Genera—The great business of the week has been the recruiting of the one hundred days' men called for by the Governor's proclamation. We have no definite information as to the suc cess which has attended the movement thus far; but whilst there is no doubt that our quota will be ultimately filled, the contrast between the re sponse of Pennsylvania to the call of the country, and the prompt reply of Ohio, Indiana, and Illi nois recently to a similar call, is humbling to our State pride. In a few days—it might almost be said, in a few hours—the regiments of these States were on their way to the appointed ser vice, without the spur of repeated and fervid ap teals, without the stimulus of offered bounties, and though their own soil had not been invaded or threatened. Shall we not lay to heart this second lesson, and by the adoption of, an effect ive militia system, be prepared for such an em ergency in the future ? It is a miserable policy to delay all organization until the foe is at our very doors, and then, by frantic appeals and by proffer of money, to endeavor to atone fer the neglect of the past. Let us emulate the noble example•of our sister States. In the case of Maj. Gen. Dix, arrested and brought before Jtidgn &Well, the City Judge of New-York, for suspending the N. Y.

JULY 20, 1864. to $2 per pound before next December, I will buy you a hat.' " The 11. S. Economist of the 9th says : Wools is still one of the very cheapest commodities in the market, though prices, in the meantime, have advanced 156245 c. 7,bl lb. Manufacturers have got to have wool, and, in our opinion, they had better buy it now. Wool will reach figures this year that Were never before heard of. The man ufacturers do not complain of present prices, but they think wool will go much higher before two months, and hence the price of all woolen goods has been advanced from 10 to 20 per cent. within a month, though made from a much cheaper material than can now be obtained. Price for wool is now very firm, ranging from $1 to $l.lO for all descriptions, the latter for choice Ohio." For months past the manufacturers have re fused to take orders for all kinds of woolen goods. They fill what they have on hand and prefer and only take orders at value when de livered (that is at the final delivery). 'The man ufacturers have made money the last year, at which every intelligent - wool grower rejoices, the interest of the wool grower and manufac turer being reciprocal, the prosperity of one be ing the glory of the other. True, last year there was imported very considerable foreign wool, that brought the domestic wool grower into competition with the foreign wool. This year, the price of gold and an equitable tariff, is regulating in favor of the dothestic wool pro ducer, which is altogether as much in the favor of the manufacturer, all things considered, as in. favor of the U. S. wool grower. The wool speculators are likely to get a large portion of our wool into their hands, and, whilst the maxi lecturers are contenting themselves with the present supply they have on hand, the - speculator is actively engaged in securing all he possibly - can, ensuring himself good profits that ought to be divided between the wool grower and the man rtfacturer. The manufacturers took "time.by the forelock" in advancing the price of their menu factures, and it will be well for them to consider quickly whether they had better not .- be vigilant in securing the wool_crop as quickly as possible. ,They must have the domestic wool, having no possibility of securing, a supply elsewhere for less than $1.50 to $1.75 1p ib, if at so low a figure as the latter price. There never was a time in our Eastern cities when Woolen goods were so active as at the Present. Sharp dealers from our Western cities are all on hands, or have been - very recently, laying in their Fall' ' and Winter supply of all-kinds of woolens in Eastern cities. It looks strange to see heavy:- woolen overooatings, blankets and such artioles;; - ' being shipped from our Eastern cities in remark ably large quantities for the supply in - hands. In short, all of our Eastern -cities are unusu ally bare of all kinds of woolen goods, and the supply does not begin to be equal to the demand, norris it probable, if possible, for the supply to becoine equal to the demand. How can it when the present combination of circumstances exists, rendering it - altogether inexpedient to import without. a - further advance of 100, to l5O "i!1 cent. advance on woolen goods.

November 3, 1859, he, with nine oth ers, were dismissed to unite in the organization of the church of Concord, of which he was im mediately elected an elder, and which office he held until his death, Monday, July 4. - - His health was very feeble for over a- year, arid' for•the last four months ho was confined to - the house. In these dark days he realized the value of his active service of the Lord. He re peatedly said, and wished it, impressed upon others, that " a sick bed was a poor place to pre pare for death." Said he, " Were it not for the hope gained thirty years. ago, I should be un done. As his end drew near, hip -faith became more firte, his hopes brighter, his peace more tranquil. Shortly before the close, being asked if he suffered, he replied,' " Inteneely ; but it - is my body." "How is your hope in Christ?" " Unshaken—unshaken." With his dying breath he was heard to whisper, " Come, Lord Jesus,' come quickly, let his friends, as they read these lines, re member his dying admonition "A sick bed is a poor place to prepare for death." - DIED—At '-Chattanooga, Tenn.,- June 22d, ELIOT W., third son of Rev. Joseph and Mary Ann Kerr, now of Fairfield, lowa. He had been in the army, but, a short time; went as a recruit in the 30th lowa Inf., Co. 0, of which - his oldest brother, E. B. Kerr, is Cap tain. It seemed to alleviate his leaving home, in the' estimation of his parents, that the two boys were- to -be together.- - ,Ellot's age , was, eighteen. Ile was a member of the Church ; had been' studying with a view to the ministry; learned rapidly, and - would have made a fine speaket. - He was earnest, though modest, in his efforts in the* cause of his Divine Master,; 4u2 , 1 thought that, whilst he served his country, he might do something for good among his fellow Soldiers. He left with the true _ missionary Spirit, for the-field; but among hislast remarks. before he left home, was this: if he were spared_ to return, le expected to enter the ministry. . --His disposition was amiable, and his social habits of the most winning and, genial kind. But, dear fellow l he has gone'; we *ill no longer hear his voice at the family altar -and social' pinyer meeting, much less at some future day in the pulpit. - - Hie parents had frequent assurances, through members of the Christian Commission and oth ers, while he was lying in the hospital at Resiica, Ga., that he was sustained by the consolations of the Gospel, and delighted in religious exercises. They; in the early part or -his confinement e had hope of his recovery, and awakened a kindred hope with_ his friends at borne, and the lilies . % thought was cherished by the horne circle,-that before long he would return. 'Being 'wounded - through the right lung and shoulder, -he could not 'write. But a - few days before_ hie death, when inditing a letter written by, another, J.

Andli,9lpromotion, - too, from the tank of -a -sol dier to a place " about the throne !" But the claims which an attractive home and stricken sisterly group had upon him, strong and urgent as- they were,- must, in the view of young M'Cullough, yield to-the superior claims of an imperilled and bleeding country, strug gling for life against the most wicked and atro cious of human rebellions. Within promptness and patriotic ardor worthy of all praise, he en tered the service as. Captain of Co. A, 140th Reg't P. V., in which position he displayed qual ities such as soon won the confidende of his men and gave promise of early promotion to a higher. rank: He bore a gallant part in the battle of Gettysburg, where he received a wound in one of his limbs, which disabled him for a time, when he availed himself of the opportunity of revisiting his friends. On returning to his com mand, he became - eligible to the- Majorahip of his regiment, a commissiaiifer which was issued, tint. too late for his acceptance. After the open ing of the Spring campaign under Lieut. Gen. Grant, Capt. M'Cullough, in the absence of'Col. Frazer, assumed regimental command, in which position he - was acting on the first day of the battle of. Cold Harbor, when he received the wound of which he shortly afterwards died. - It is the concurrent testimony of eye witnesses that he was fi young gentleman of noble and dig nified demeanor. - as well as a gallant soldier and accomplished officer. The following from the regimental Chaplain, Rev. J. L. Milligan, is, as touching as , it , is tomplinientary: , 4 I loved him like a brother. lie was so noble,- so manly, and so frank. As'a friend and associate, I shall al ways mourn his loss. As an officer,•he had -the highest respect and esteem, not only of the regi-. ment, but alio at brigade and heed quarters. Re was too brave and &trill& I frequently plead with hiin not - to expose himself so much. He, would simply smile and say, All right, chaplain:" WEDNE,hDAY, July 20 A commission for -the Colorieley of the 183 d Rog% P. - V., was forwarded, but did not reach his quarters until after his death. His remains were sent to his friends in Jefferson, where they were followed by a large concourse of citizens to the family, burying ground and interred; after which appropriate funeral services were per formed, in which Rev. Dr. James Sloan and oth-. ers participated. Let the living be admonished. " This world is but the rugged road Which leads unto the bright abode Of peace above ; So let us choose that narrow way Which leads no traieler's foot astray - From realms of love." LINES, Occasioned by the death of D. H. MORTON, of Co. D, 149th P. V., who died June 6th, from the effects of a gunshot wound, received in the bat tle on North Anna river.

Here, - too, - the son both worked upon. the. farm. and was a.- student of medicine, until the Autimn of 1806, when he entered the Medical University at Philadelphia. After h full - course in that renovined:lnstitution, he received his diploma, in a class of sixty, in the Spring of 1808. - In the summer ()Rho same year he Bettled.in Washington, where he passed the balance of his long and useful life.

He soon stood in the front rank of his noble pro fession, and pursued it with unsurpassed activ ity and success,' until , a fair years - previous to hie death.

Bethel June 24,1864. the Presbyterian church of Washington, under the ministry of its first pastor, the late venera ble Dr. Brown. He subsequently acted as a Trustee, and also an Elder of the ,same church. His religious experience was marke d, at the first, and at different times afterwards, with deep feel ings and severe confliots. He was a habitual student of the Word of God, a worshipper in the closet and at the family altar, and, as occasion demanded, a spiritual as well as a medical coun sellor, in the chamber 'of sickness. It pleased God to suffer a cloud upon the last few years of his life, in thelpartial failure of his bodily and mental faculties. His constitution, of uncommon vigor, had worn itself out by in cessant toils, in behalf of the sick and suffering. After his work was done, weary nature, without disease, sank by slow and irregular steps until at the last, from pure exhaustion, his life ex pired like the flame of a candle in its socket. And now he rests among the dead. "He is gone at length—he is laid in dust, Death's hand his slumbers breaking ; For the coned sleep of the good and just. Is a sure and blissful waking." 3. I. B.
