The Battle* in Virginia. OFFICIAL REPORT OF GEN. POPE. Gen. Pope makes the following official re port of his campaign in Virginia, from the 9th of August to the 1st ol Septemljor. Headquarters Army of Virginia, I September 3,1NU2. f General: I have the honor to submit the fol lowing brief sketch of the operations of this army siuce the 9th of August. i...i a_ a?.._tit i !..i. tr t _ ton, and Warrenton, with the corps of Hanks and Sigel, and one division of McDowell’s corps, numbering in all thirty two thousand men. to meet the enemy, who had crossed the Kapidan, and was advancing on Cuipep|>er.— The movement toward Gordonsville had com pletely succeeded in drawing off a large force from Richmond, and in relieving the army of the Potomac from much of its danger which threatened its withdrawal from the Peninsula. The action of Angusl i*. at Cedar Mountain, with the forces under Jackson, which com pelled his retreat across the Rapid; n, made ueccssary still further reinforcements of the enemy from Richmond; and by this time, it being apparent that the army of the Potoinac was evacuaiing the Peninsula, the whole force of the enemy conceninued around Richmond was pushed forward, with great rapidity, to crush the Army of Virginia before the forces evacuating the Peninsula could he united with it. 1 remained at Cedar Mountain, and still threatened to cross the Kapidan, until the 17th of August, by which time General Robert Lee had assembled in my front, and within eight miles, nearly the whole rebel army. As soon as I ascertained this fact, and knew that the army of the Potoinac was no longer in dan ger, I drew back my whole force across the Rappahannock, on the night of the 17th. and day of the 18th, without loss of any kind, and one day in advance of Lee's proposed move ment against me. The eueiny immediately ap peared in my front, at Kap)>ahaunock Station, and attempted to pass the. river at that bridge, and the numerous fords above and below, but without success. The line of the upper K&ppahanock, which I had been ordered to hold, that the enemy might be delayed long enough in his advance upon Washington to enable the forces from the Peninsula to land, and effect a junction with me, was very weak, as it could lie crossed at almost any point above the railroad bridge, by good fords. By constant vigilance and activity, and much severe lighting for three days, the enemy was gradually forced around from the railroad crossing to Waterloo Bridge, west of Warren ton.- Meantime my force had been much di minished by actual loss in Battle, and by fa tigue and exposure, so that, although I had been joined by a detachment under Gen Reno, and the other division of McDowell’s corps, my force barely numbered forty thousand men. On the a heavy rain fell, which rendered the fords impassable for twenty-four hours.— As soon as 1 disovered this, 1 concentrated my forces, and marched rapidly upon Sulphur Springs, and Waterloo Bridge, to drive hack the enemy, which hud succeeded in crossing at these points. This was successfully done, and the bridges destroyed. 1 passed one day—or rather a part of one— at Warrenton, and beyonl. The enemy still continued to move slowly along around the river, masking every lord with artillery, and heavy forces of infantry, so that it was impossible lor me to attack him, even with the greatly inferior forces under iny command, without passing the river over lords strongly guarded, and in the face of superior numlicrs. Tlie movement of Jackson toward White .i __ Gap, while the main body of the enemy con fronted me at Sulphur Springs,^md Waterloo Bridge, was well known to me, but I relied confidently upon the forces which 1 had been assured would tie sent from Alexandria, and one stray division of which I had ordered to take post on the works at Manassas Junction. I was entirely under the belief that these would be there, aud it was not until 1 found my communication intercepted that 1 was un deceived. X knew that this movement was no raid, that it was made by not less than twenty five thousand men, under Jackson. By this time the army corps of HeintzeUnan, about ten thousand strong, had reached Warrenton Junction; one division of It, I think, on the very day of the raid; but they came without artillery. With only forty rounds of ammuni tion to the man, without wagons.and even the field and general officers without horses. Kitz John Porter also arrived at Bristow Station, near Rappahannock, with one of his divisions, 4,500 strong, w hilst his other division was still at Barnett’s and Kelyl’s Ford. I directed that corps, about 8,500 strong, to concentrate im mediately at Warrenton Junction, where lXcintzelman already was. This was accom plished on the evening of the —th. As soon as it was made known to me tliat Jackson was on the railroad, it became apparent that tile upper Rappahannock was no longer tenable. 1 could not detach a sufficient force to meet Jackson, and at the same time attempt to con front the main body of the enemy. I accord ingly at once evacuated Warrenton, and War renton Junction, directing McDowell, with Ilia own corps aud Sigcl's, and the division of Reynolds, to inarch rapiilly by the turnpike upou Gainesville, so as to intercept any rein forcements coming to Jackson through Thor oughfare Gap; and instructing Reno, with his command, and Kearney, with one division of Ileintzelman's, to march on Greenwich, so as to support McDowell in case of necessity. I moved back along the railroad upon Manassas Junction. Near Kettle Run, Ilooker came uiion the advance of Ewell's division on the afternoon of the 27th. A severe action took place,which terminated at dark, Ewell being driven from the field with the loss of his camp and three hundred killed aud wounded. The unfortu nate oversight of not bringing more than forty rounds of ammunition became at once alarm ing At nightfall Hooker li:ul but live rounds to the mail left. As soon as 1 learned this I sent hack orders to Fitz-John Porter to march with his corps at one o’clock that night, so as to be with Hooker at daylight in the morning. The distance was only nine miles, and he received the dispatch at ii 50 o'clock, but did not reach the ground until after 10 o’clock next morning. He can probably explain better than I can the reason of this delay. Fortunately Hooker had handled the army so severely the evening before, and the move ment of McDowell had liegun to lie so appa rent, that the enemy fearful of being surround ed. had retreated precipitately from Manassas Junction, directing Ms retreat through Centre ville, as McDowell, Ileno and Kearney had made the road through Gainesville impractica ble. 1 immediately pushed forward to Manas sas, and thence to Centrevillo. which was oc cupied by Kearney that night only a few hours alter the enemy had left it. Reno had reached Manassas Junction, and Fitz-Johu Porter was immediately ordered up from Broad Run, where lie had Stopped. McDowell's move ment, conducted with vigor and speed, had been completely successful, the enemy being intercepted at Gainesville, and part of his for ces driven back through Thoroughfare Gap. Late in the evening of the-McDowell’s ad vance (Gibbon’s brigade) met the force of Jackson retiring from Oentreville, and about six miles from that place. A very sharp skir mish took place, ended by the darkness, in which the brigade of Gihhou Ix-haved very handsomely and sulfered heavy loss. Sigel was close at hand with his corps, but did not joiu the action. I instructed Kearney to move forward at early dawn toward Gaines ville, closely followed by Hooker and Reno,and engage the enemy thus placed between Mc Dowell and Sigel on tile west, and Fitz John Porter on the south. 1 also instructed Fitz John Porter with his own corps, which had for some reason fallen back from the Warrenton turnpike toward Manassas Junction, to move at daylight in the morning upon Gainesville, along the Manassas Gap Railroad, until they communicated closely with the lorces under Heintzelman and Bigel, cautioning them not to go further than was necessary to effect this junction, as we might be obliged to retire be hind Bull Run that night for subsistence ifnoth ing else. Heintzelman marched early from Centreville toward Gainesville, closely followed by* Reno. Meantime.shortly after daylight. Bigel's ami Reynold's division of McDowell's corps had come engaged with the enemy,who was brought to a stand, and he was soon joined by Heintzel man and Reno,w hen the whole line became ac tively engaged. Porter marched as directed, followed by King's division, which was by this time joined by Pickett's division, which had lieen forced back from Thoroughfare (tap by the heavy for ces of the eileuiv advaneine to sunnorl I W.L. son. As soon as I found that the enemy had been brought to a halt, and was being vigorously at tacked along the Warrenton turnpike, I sent orders to McDowell to advance rapidly on the left, and attack the enemy in bis tiank,extend ing his right to meet Reynold's left, and to Fitz John Porter to keep his right well closed on McDowell’s lelt, and to attack the enemy in tiank and rear, while lie was pushed in front. This would have made the line of McDowell and Porter at right angels to that of the other forces engaged. The action ragedlhriously all day,McDowell, although previously in rear ofPnrter, bringing his whole corps on the Held in the afternoon, and taking a conspicuous part in that day's operations. To my surprise and disappoint ment 1 received, late in the afternoon front Porter, a note saying that his advance had met the enemy on the flank in some force, and that he was retiring upon Manassas Junction with out engaging or coming to the assistance of our other forces, although they were engaged in a furious action only two miles distant, and in full hearing of him. A portion of bis force fell hack towards Manassas, and he remained as hp afterw ard informed me. where lie was looking at the enemy during the whole of the afternoon of Friday and part of Friday night, passing over in plain view to reinforce the troop* under Jackson, without an effort to prevent it or assist us. One at least of his brigades under (Jen. Gridin, got rouiitj toCen treville, and remained there during the whole of the next day's buttle, without coining on the field, though in full view of the bat tle w hich was raging, while Gen. Griffen himself spent the day in making ill-natured strictures upon tlte general commanding the action, in the presence ot a promiscuous assemblage. Darkness closed the action on Friday, the enemy being driven back from bis positions by Heintzelmau’s eorjis and Reno, concluded by a furious attack along the turnpike by King's di vision of McDowell s corps, leaving his dead ami wounded on the field. I do not hesitate to say that if the corps of j Porter had attacked tile enemy in flank on the afternoon ol Friday, as lie had my written or J der to do, we should utterly have crushed Jackson before the forces under Lee could have reached him. Why he did not do so I cannot understand. Our men, much worn dow n by hard service and continuous lighting for many previous days, ami very short of provisions, rested on their guns. >ur horses hud had no forage for two days. I had telegraphed and writteu ur gently for rations ami forage to be sent us, but on Saturday morning, before the action was rr 1 Burned, I received a letter from Gen. Franklin, written the day licfore at Alexandria, stating to me that lie iind liecn directed by (Jen. Mc Clellan to inform me that rations and forage for my command w ould lie loaded into the cars and available wagons as soon as I would send a cavalry escort to Alexandria to bring them up. All hope of being aide to maintain my position, whether victorious or not. vanished with this letter. My cavalry was utterly hrok j on down bv long and constant service in the face of the enemy, and laid as they were could not be spared from the front, even if there t been time to go ha -k thirty miles to Alexan examiria was swarming with troops, ami my whole army interposed betw een that place and the enemy. 1 at once understood that we must, if possible, finish what we had to do that day, as night must see us behind Bull Bun if we wished to save men and animals from star vation. On Friday night 1 sent a peremptory order to Gen. Porter to bring his command on the field ami report to me in [icrsoii within three hours after lie received the order. A portion j lie brought up, but, as I before stated, one of i his brigades remained the whole day at Centre i ville, ami w as not hi the engagement. The enemy's heavy reinforcements having reached him on Friday afternoon and night, he began j to mass on bis right for the purpose of crush ing our left and occupying the road to Cenlre ville in ourrear. His heaviest assault was made almiit five o’clock in the afternoon, when, after j overwhelming Filz John Porter and driving his forces back on the centre and left, mass af j ter mass of his forces were pushed against our i left. A terrific contest, with great slaughter, i was carried on for several hours, our men be having with firmness ami gallantry under the immediate command of Gen. McDowell. When night closed our left had been forced back about half a mile, but still remained firm and unshaken, while our right held its ground. Gen. Franklin, with his corps, arrived after dark at Centrevillersix miles in our rear,Whilst Sumner was four miles behind Franklin. I could have brought up these corps in the morn ing in time to have renewed the action, but starvation stared both men and horses in the lace, and broken and exhausted, they were in no condition to bear hunger also. I accord ingly retired to Ontreville that night in |mt feet order. Neither on Sunday nor oil Mon day did the enemy make any advance upon us. On Monday 1 sent to the armv corps com manders for their effective strength, which, all told, including Sumner and Franklin.fell short of sixty thousand men. Instead of bringing up thirty thousand men, Franklin ami Sumner united fell short of twenty thousand,and these, added to the*foree I had—already wearied out and mueli cut up—did not give me the means to do anything else than stand on the defence. The enemy during Monday again began to work slowly around to our right lor the pur pose of possessing Fairfax Court House, and thus turning our rear. Couch'sdivisionand one brigade of Sumner’s bad been left there,and 1 sent down Hookers, on Monday afternoon to take command and post himself at or in front of Germantown, at tie same time directing McDowell to take po sition along the turnpike from Ceutreviile to Fairfax Court-House, about two nrles west ol the latter place. Heiutzebnau was directed to post himself in rear and support of Iteno, who was pushed north of the road, at a point aliout two and a half miles cast of Ceutreviile, and to cover that road, it Iieing my purpose in the course of the night, to mass my command on the rigid, in the direction of Germantown, where I felt convinced the next attack of the enemy would be made. Late in the afternoon of Monday, the enemy made his demonstration upon Germantown, but was met by Hooker at that place, and by Reno, reinforced by Kearney, further west.— The battle was very severe, though short, the enemy being driven back a mile with heavy loss, leaving his dead ami wounded. In this short action we lost two of our most valuable an 1 distinguished officers, Generals Kearney an l Stevens. By morning the whole of my command was massed behind a difficult creek, between Flint Hill ami the Warrenton Junction, in front of Germantown. With the exception of Sumner, the com manders of the army corps of the Army of the Potomac had continued to inform me that their commands were and had been demoraliz ed ever since they left Harrison's Landing; that they, had no spirit and no disposition to light. This latter statement their conduct in the various actions fully contradicted, but the straggling in those cor|>« was distressing. The full facts having been reported, I was ordered, on Tuesday afternoon, to retire to the iutrenclnnents near Washington which was accordingly done on that day and the next, in good order and without the slightest loss. Banks, who bad been left with the rail-road trains cut off at Bristol by the burning of the bridge, was ordered to join me on Monday at Ceutreviile, which he did on the afternoon of that day. This brief summary will explain sufficiently in detail tile whole of the operations ot the for ces under my command, during sixteen days of continuous fighting by day and marching by night. To confront a powerful enemy witli greatly Inferior forces, and fight him day by day with out losing your army; to delay and emisirrnss his movements, and to force him, by persistent resistance, to adopt long and circuitous routes to his destination, an' the duties that have been imposed upon me. They are of all mili tary operations, the most difficult and the most harassing, both to the commander and to his troops. How far we have been successful 1 leave to the judgment of my countrymen. The armies of the Potomac have lieen united in the presence ami against the efforts of a wary and vigorous enemy in greatly superior force to either, with no loas for which they did not exact full retribution. I.- .1._1 _1 .1 ..4:..— with especial gratitude, for their most hearty, cordial and untiring zeal and energy, are Gen erals McDowell, Hanks, Reno, Heiutzleman, Hooker and Kearney, ami many others of in ferior rank, whom 1 shall take great pleasure iu bringing to the notice of the government. The troops have exhibited wonderful pa tience and courage, and 1 cannot say too much for them. John Hope, Major-General.

AN adjourned session of (in* Krrrutire CoHticit will be held at the Council Chamber, in Anjrti ta. ou Tuesday the twcuty.third day of Seplcinbor next, Attest, JOSEPH B HALL, aujfildtd Secretary of State. (ten. Pope’s Official Keport. Ou the first page of this paper, we have pub lished the official report of Maj. Gen. Pope, of his late campaign in Virginia. It w ill be read with interest. Gen. P. makes statements which show very great wrong somewhere. We are not blind to the fact that he is accustomed to making florid reports; that lie reported four times tlie number of his killed and wounded;— whether to give more importance to his battle, or through an honest mistake, we know not;— we are aware that when near Corinth, he re ported large captures from the enemy which no one else has been able to discover, but alter all these considerations arc allowed their full weight, we cannot avoid the conviction that Pope was suflered to fail in his recent struggle through somebody’s fault. He lixes the blame upon certain Generals whom he nainTS, but when the other side is presented it may turn out that those whom lie blames had their reasons for non-action, and are not entitled to the censure that his state ments imply that they deserve. One thing is pretty clear, that the country is allowed to suffer through the strength of red tape. It is to be feared that West Pointers and civilian volunteers do not harmonize w ith that exact ness which patriotism would desire. It seems strangely inconsistent with the great purposes of this war that men should stand too much on punctilio—on mere eti quette. Somebody, it would seem, knowing I’ope's necessities, knowing the severity ol the struggle in which he was engaged and the im portance of his being sustained, did not sus tain him as they might, because they had re ceived no orders to do so This is what we call being held back by red tape. It is too much like the common constitutional objec tion to dealing severely w ith traitors—that w e must be careful how we hit them lest we go beyond the express provisions of the Constitu tion Gen. Jackson never acted upon an v such principle. If he fount! a rebel in arms he would first disarm him and thou defend himself as best he could; if he found a traitor, and the salva tion of tlie country demanded his hanging, he would save his country by hanging him first, and look up the authorities afterwards. We mean to say by these references to Jackson, that prompt action is sometimes necessary .and that neither ceremony, formality, etiquette nor vague scruples about authority, should hold us back when the death grapple between right and wrong is being exhibited before us. The highwayman must lie knocked down; the arm of the assassin must l>e paralyzed; the torch of the incendiary must be extinguished, and not till after three things are done should we stop to hunt up officers to make arrests, or trouble ourselves about precedents or authorities. While Generals stand on punctilio and are wait ing for orders, it is possible that the most gi gantic disasters may happen. The pluck that wins was well exhibited on the Peninsula—at Winchester we think—when our own Gen. Berry, knowing the critical sit uation in which Ilciutzelman was placed,with out wailing for orders, rushed to the rescue, and was barely in time to turn the tide of bat tle and save the fortunes of the day. llad he waited for orders t he day would have been lost. Heintzelman—military man as he is—prized such manliness of the down east officer, and was so elated at his timely interposition that he actually embraced him, throwing his strong arms around him, and holding him close to his warm, generous, grateful,German heart. “Hard up tor a Henson.” Under this head the Bangor Times Hies into a spasm because we suggested, as one of sev eral reasons lor the changed vote in this part of the State, that a large proportion of the men who had gone to the war were republicans. We made tlie suggestion, not from any such motives ns the Times intimates, yet we a-sert its correctness. We do not intimate—we would no—that the democratic masses are any less patriotic than the masses of the republican par ty but we know that in some towns in this county and Oxford .and in many in York, certain influential democrats have done all they could to discourage volunteering, and in some instances, under their lead, towns have voted bounties, not to volunteers but to draft ed men. Of course the influence of such men—men at heart opposed to tlie war—was to prevent vol unteering among those whom they could con trol—their own political friends—while they could iuive no iuliueiice upou those opposed to them. Volunteers were to lie called from the State before election; drafted meu would at home at election. In Franklin County, we arc told, the Democrats have actually furnish ed a majority of the volunteers. That county lias been less under sueli influences a- we have referred to. So or Ienobftcot. But where leaders have denounced the war as unholygind have insisted upon compromise ami conces sion, why should they not oppose volunteer ing,and use their influence to keep their friends from the war? YVe are not behind our Bangor cotemporary in party or in political abnega tion in this hour of peril, but we cannot close our eyes to fart*, nor shall he try to do so. Can White Laborers do Plantation work. The New Orleans Delta of August 26th, thus summarily disposes of tills question: We wish we could remove one fallacy from the Northern mind, and that is the fallacy that lalsir pe*ft> lined by negroes on the plantations of the South cannot Ik; done by white men. \Y e say it. can; and it can he done cheaper and better. Intelligent am) independent Southern ers will admit this. YY by, the white farmers of tlie YY’est, in their harvesting season, work and are happy ami healthy, under a sun quite as oppressive as that of this latitude. The hod-carriers of the North, with no wool to shield their heads, work as no negro multi w ork, in a sun quite ns broiling as nnylhing experi enced in a rice field or a cane brake. YY e throw these assertions out lor the examination of the philosopher and the statesman. And w e will anticipate events so far as to say that a sugar plantation will be worked in this State by white men before the year is out. Don't, then, lielieve those who tell you that a w hite man can’t do what a negro can. lie can do all that a negro can do, in the way of laboring in the sun, and ever-so-inuch more. McCi.km.ax ami thk Akmy.—The YY'n»h ingtoii correspondent ol the Chicago Tribuhe, will! lias heretofore had many harsh tilings to say of Gen. McClellan, writes in his last letter: "1 ha ve disl»'lieved the reports of the army's affection for McClellan: being entirely unable to account for the phenomenon. 1 cannot ac count for it to my satisfaction flow, but 1 ac cept it as a tact. Even Gen. lleintzelman, whose entire disbelief in Gen. McClellan’s ability is w* ll known, said forty-eight hours ago that h«* vva> the only man in whom the ar my as s whole, had confidence: tin* only man who could lift it out ol its present demoraliza tion. Gen. lieintzeltnau, as well a© other wit nesses not especially friendly to McClellan, testified to the enthusiasm with which the sol diers wee med their old commander.” [Correspondence of the Prrw.l letter from Maryland.

I)is. Dana, Kohinson, and Foote, are stationed at Armory Hospital; Drs. Fogg and Chadwick are on Held service, at tached to tlie Oth Maine regiment, now at Druincsville, about 1'2 miles from this town.— Gen. McClellan’s headquarters are at this place, ami this day he moves eight miles above, sending tlie army forward in advance. I stop ped with Gen. Howard, at his headquarters, long enough to wish him God-speed. He is in good spirits, and ready to lay down his life for his country, liis brother, attached to his stall' as lieutenant, has just returned from M ainc, and to-day took his post with tlie gen eral. although yet suffering from his wound at Fair Oaks. While I sin writing this tlie order to move is being obeyed, liegiineots, brigades and di visions are in motion, and should 1 tell you tliut tile force here at Ibis point w ill not tall far short of 100,000 men, it w ill not be esti mating the number too low. The material is wdiat would lie called the best fighting materi al of tlie army of tin* Potomac. Willi the po sition taken by Burnside and Ids forces, I can safely say that when tills blow is struck, which will be in a few days, our arms w ill be success ful. At this place I found the 10th Maine, al though in advance some two miles, mustering only about 200 muskets; yet I was informed they were ready with their small numbers to do their duty. This regiment has seen a great •leal of hard service. They consider tlie ser vice of the ltailroaii Brigade, at the present time, a luxury well worth receiving from tlie hands of the government. Their Brigadier is not a very popular man, nor a very efficient man, being considered a paper Brigadier rather than a lighting one. Tlie Maine batteries, together with tlie 5th. (1th and 7th regiments, of Franklin’s Division, arc at this point, having come from tlie vicinity of Alexandria since Sunday. Tlie Maine cavalry have seen a great deal of bard service, as is well shown by their horses. They informed me that for weeks,the forage for their horses had been very lightgind the dutv verv hold. All the Maine regiments had received more or less recruits from Maine, to till them up,yet, still more are wanted. Tlie ambulance train from Centreville and Bull Kun, daily brings our wounded in. On Monday morning, between four and live hun dred were brought to Washington, having left Bidl Bun Sunday noon at 12 o'clock. These men had laid on the battle-fieidaiuccthe liattie on Friday and Saturday—eight and nine days exposed to tlie weather, with all tile sufferings around. This great crime can be credited to Gen. I’ope, he having refused to allow this train to pass on tlie haltle-llcld under a tlag of truce. It is fortunate that tills man was re lieved of liis command. 1). Parson Brownlow lias written and published a characteristic letter to tlie Gov ernors of tlie loyal .Slates, advising them to meet together and urge upon tlie civil and military authorities certain considerations, a few of which we copy: “First. Prge the government to draft, with out delay, a liaJf a million of men, in addition to tin- force already ill tin- Held and in camps of instruction. And. upon flic score of econo my. apprise tlie government of the fact that it will require less money to furnish, equip and sustain a million of men for one year than it will half a million for two years. “Sec ond. Kilter your protest against every other Brigadier and Major General ill our ar my living a candidate for tlie Presidency dur ing the existence of this war, and, as a conse quence. “Imping hi« course in that direction. "Third. Kilter vour most solemn protest against one-half of the members of tlie Cabi net looking to the Presidency, and shaping their conduct of tlie war accordingly. “Fourth. Call upon tlie President, whose honesty and patriotism I do not question, to reorganize Ids Cabinet and the army, and to place men at tin' heads of Imth w ho will not study how to kill off leading rebels without hurting them! Fifth. Advise the civil and military authori ties of tin1 country, and the politicians, to cease this war upon tlie everlasting "nigger" until we conquer their white masters, and ar rest the onward march of their desperate and arrogant masters. Meanwhile, let the negroes lie seized upon, and used in every possible way to crush out this infernal rebellion.” The Indian Beiieli.ion anothkk Devil ish WoitK op Secessionists.—Tlie Bangor Whig says there appears to he a strong belief that the savage atrocities of the Indians in M iiiiii'siita, And the threatened Indian war, are tlie work of human white devils in the shape of rebel emissaries. A friend has sent us a copy of the St. Paul Press of A tig. 24 til, from which wt* extract the following: “A careful consideration of the evidence which has accumulated so far, in connection with tlie Indian massacres, forces upon us the conviction that white men are at the bottom of it. The evidence taken before the coroner’s in quest held at Acton, in Meeker county, shows, upon the testimony of one of tin* women who escaped, that shortly after the Indians left, a white man came along, following in the track of the Indians. The woman called him in, and showed hiui the five dead bodies—men and wmneu—lying upon the floor. //e biuy/nd, ■mil _ f. 4 if i II followed on alter the Indians. Again—we are informed that Nelson Kols erts, well known to many of our readers, lias stated that for weeks past,whltr men—Missou rian.-—have I wen among the Indians. With out doubt they Were emissaries, sent among them, to stir them up. Moreover, it seems to us that tiie whole character of tile present outbreak indicates tiie presence of some directing intelligence of a higher order than that of the Indian. The fact that remote triis-s, like tiie Yank tonnais and (lie t 'ut Heads are moving in con cert, indicates this.*1 A correspondent of tiie Advertiser complains of the ledcral office-holders in this city, hecause they did ntt make more stir to secure a different result in the Congressional vote of the distric t. If they had made them selves conspicuous in that direction, the same writer, or some other in the same paper, would doubtless have accused them of prostituting tln-ir official influence, and of attempting to control tiie will of the people; and indulged in any amount of dissertations iijhiii the dan gers U> Republican freedom, resulting from of liec-liolders interfering with the elective fran chise.

"Tell Mr. Geffl-ard,” said Ahraliam, “that I shan't tear my shirt if lie does send a nigger.” We do not propose to fracture any under garments even if Mr. Sunnier should be elected. Plenty of worse men and more incompetent men than lie are in office; hut all this cannot hide from us tlie fact that liis friends are pushing liis in terests in -lu ll a way that the public will sim ply la-come disgusted. The key note was sounded in tlie convention for tlie elections to the Legislature. Every man nominated is to be sounded on the question whether lie favors the rc-eluclion of Charles Sumner. If not, down goes his house.” Fifteenth RKliment.—“Skirmisher” in form- us that ('apt. B. 11. Murray. Jr., of Pem broke, is appointed Lieut. Colonel of the 1.1th Regiment. From this it would seem that Major Hawes lias resigned. K# The Lynchburg (Va.) Reputilican has an obituary notice of Gen. McClellan, of whose death at Manassas, from a wound re ceived in Saturday's battle, it has authentic information. The notice states that lie was by far tile ablest of the federal generals, and his loss w ill bo a great gain to tile South. The. Blddeford Union declares that there is the most cordial feeling existing lie tween Generals Ilalleek and McClellan. The former has on numerous occasions declared that he considered McClellan one of the great est living soldiers of the world. Child's Question.—One morning tlie past spring, a bobolink caine and sang in a field near a farmer's house. His little lour year old daughter was much delighted, and asked: "Wliat makes lie sing so sweet, moth er Du he eat Jluieersf” Ca mi* Ajiuaiiam Lincoln.—There are now nearly 1000 recruits at this camp, and the quotas will he coming in daily this week. Company B, of the Portland Battalion, Cnpt. Tolman, go into camp to-day. By Saturday there will probably be near 0000 men in camp. U. S. Sanitary Commission.—In addition to contributions already acknowledged, the undersigned has just received from citizens of North Vassalboro, the sum of $1.10 for the use of our sick and wounded soldiers. W. H. IIadley, Agent U. S. Sanitary Commission. The Historical Waii Map.—For the sum of twenty-five cents a neat little pocket com panion, containing a brief summary of ihu events ot the rebellion up to the battle of Cul pepper, also a large map of the Southern and Western States, can be obtained at the book store of A. Robinson, No. 51 Exchange street XiF'A Havana letter says that the famous diamond wedding, as many prophesied, lias turned out badly, and that Mrs. Oviedo is at Havana, separated from her husband. A Ibr mal separation bus been agreed upon, the lady to receive per annum and to live in tile U iiited States. She has hail a very sorrowful time of it with the Cuban graybeard. Iff' The editor of the Brunswick Tele graph calls upon the Portland editors to “hold their peace about their social habits.” It is said that Tenney has recently contracted a “social habit,” the result of which is, that he proposes “to hold his piece” to the extent of 180 lb-, avoiriluoois. A woman and liur two children were brutally murdered in Berkshire County a few days since. Examination left no doubt that the woman—alsmt twenty-two years of age— had been tlie victim of another species of bru tality before she was murdered. The bodies w ere found partially covered with leaves and brush, w here they had gone to pick lierries. Bro. Tenney of the Brunswick Tele grapii considers Train’s speech before the Irish Brotherhood, “decidedly treasonable, having no other effect than to injure his reputation with all right-minded men.” Many people may disagree with Mr. Tenney in relation to the “effect,” but then be will say they are not men of right minds. 21? The alarm of tire Saturday evening, was caused by some loose papers and books which had become ignited in the bookstore of Lincoln Dresser, on Exchange street. The flames were soon extinguished without the aid of the Fire Department, which,however, show ed by their prompt arrival, that they were al ways ready to respond to an alarm. t 'ff~ According to the Itirlinioud Dispatch, tin- rela l army sent against Gen.

Its daily circulation is now almost two thousand, and it is increas ing at the rate of alsmt fifty a week. Busi ness men will hear this fact in mind. We doubt if tliere is a daily paper in tlie State that has more daily readers. ry If a man is elected representative over a Republican candidate, in a town or district last year represented by a Republican, no mat ter wliat bis opinions or bis acts, though he lie as open-mouthed a secessionist as Jett.

The query suggested is, what kind of a Democracy that must he which gains by tlie election of a secessionist? jy-Por icar purposes give us tlie rcgiilurnld fashioned life and drum.

Ac. A correspondent should al ways write so that the compositor may safely follow him.

PoitTKK.—A correspondent in Porter,under date of Sept 11th, writes: "I wish "you to give notice in your pai>er that Porter nas not been weighed in the bal ance, and found wanting, ller quota of the last,*100,tlOO was 2K, all of whom were raised by volunteer enlistment, with a reserve of three for contingencies. The tilth son of Rich ard Fox enlisted yesterday, (tlie other four be ing now in the army) also a son-in-law.— The town gave each volunteer the sum of $100, anil alter they had enlisted the sum of $25 for each one, was raised by private sub scription.” 'Tlie Providence Journal, in speaking of tlie Portsmouth Grove Hospital, says that among the immediate wants of the soldiers there are fruit and newspapers. The former the soldiers cannot obtain, for they have no money to buy w ith. Fruit scut to the agent of the Sanitary Commission at Providence, w ill be judiciously distributed. The Journal says;—“Newspapers are also greatly desired by tlie soldiers. Any person landing on the wharf with a bundle of papers, is immediately surrounded by a crowd eager to obtain a copy. There are hundreds of our citizens w ho can spare from one to half a dozen papers daily, w hich will Is; most gratefully received.” We presume that next to letters from the “loved j ones at home,” the newspapers are hailed with the most joyous gladness, in the hospital and camp. We have often wondered w hy more papers are not sent to the army. An Appeal to the Patriotic People of the North.

Clayton, has just come to light, never having been published till recently: "./ttly 2t. 1855. I hope you saw tiie chapter on Mr. Calhoun’s admission of support of the Missouri compromise. It is a heavy blow up on his followers, who are not a political party, but a sect, following their prophet anil propa gating his doctrines, and to whom a proof of fallihility is a stumbling block. Believe nte, the feeling for disunion is be coming current in tlie slave States, and almost unanimous in some of them, and a letter like yours would do good in staying it The slav ery question is a cover for the real motives, which are. with politicians, ambition; with the masses, a belief that the Union works to the disadvantage of the South, and that they will do better separated. It is upon this feeling that the ntillillers work and mask their designs with the dangers of slavery, and are making great progress. Yours, truly, Thomas IB Bf-nton.” Patronize Home Keterpuize.—It is now tiie season of the year when our merchants are laying in their annual stocks of woolen goods, and we would call their attention to the excellent quality of woolen yarns manufactur ed by D. Furnel, of Wilton, in this Sfete. Mr. F. makes a pure article of all wool, free from all admixture of cotton, and he uses only a nice quality of the raw material. We are glad to learn that his business is increasing from year to year, as tiie good qualities of Ids fab rics become better known. True, his yarn may cost a fraction more per pound, ami will require to lie sold perhaps one cent a skein more, or else yield a less profit to the seller, than yarns manufactured in other States, hut when its quality, the size of the skeins and the exelicnce of tiie colors are taken into account, very few will hesitate to give it a decided preference. Mr. Furnel is now supplying the trade of the State, ilis son and travelling agent, Mr. James Furnel, will give our mer chants ail opportunity, in a few days, to test the correctness of these statements.

The |M)iicc made an important capture last night at the house of l)r. Williamson, 7 miles from this city, on the llkerxtown road.— Having received information that some rehel officers from the invading army were Ix’ing feted hy their friends, the police proceeded thither and surrounded the house, anil whilst those within were having a jolly good time, lagged the whole party, as follows: Captain Henry Gilmer, Stuart's cavalry, Grafton D. Carlisle and Lieut. Bailie. These men were disguised in citizens’ dress. The police seized Dr. Williamson, their entertainer, and several gentleman friends. The whole party were brought to this city, and are now in close con llnemcnt. These rebel officers belong to this city. It is thought they will, as they justly should, meet the fate of spies. It has been discovered that Lee and Jackson had crossed the Potomac, near Marthisburg.— The whole rebel force is retreating across the Potomac. Cincinnati, Sept. 13.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. Horsemanship and Health. It is universally acknowledged that health is essential to the physical and mental devdop uient and the comfort of man, woman and child; and any and every legitimate means to promote it should be employed generously and systematically. Our people of wealth, especially many that are young, are now returning from jaunts among the mountains, and rambling visits through our cliarmihg rural districts. They have been to seek health as well as pleasure, and return strengthened and invigorated by the air and exercise which they have enjoyed. Now, let them, let everybody, old and young, wealthy or not, see to it that the same efforts that are made in these summer rambles to pro mote health, combined with pleasure, are put forth at home. If we cannot in the city play the wild pranks which tlie broad acres of the country allow, scale stone walls, climb rugged heights, and be free as the air in all our movements, we must substitute for these that which will best accomplish like results. It has been well said that “the outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man,” ami we are glad to notice that many of our people, es pecially young ladies, are In-ginning to appre ciate the value of horse-back exercise. Noth ing can 1 letter supply the place of natural physical exercise than this. It is exciting and Invigorating to Ixith mind and I tody, and the skill necessary to the management of the noblest of all animats is no mean accomplish ment. We have in Portland an “institution,” which on the score both of health and practical econ omy, deserves the liberal patronage of our citizens. We refer to the Riding .School ot Mr. J. W. Robinson, on South street, a neat and wall conducted establishment for the in struction of gentlemen, ladies and children in the healthful exercise of liorse-back riding. We know that many will regard it as extrava gant to expend forty or fifty dollars anuually for this kind of pleasure, and yet, these very persons will cheerfully, although solemnly, pay their physician's bill of perhaps double the amount, and think it all a necessary expense. We do not agree with them. Give your sons and daughters the benefit of the best exercise and the most heaithliii amusements within their reach; let them mount their horses and chase away consumption and every disease, while the pure morning air paints their cheeks with the colors of life, as if restoring a token of lavor in return for their obedieuce to the laws of health. State Street’s War Contributions. All who are familiar with our city admit that State street, with its ample width of six rods, its double row of elms on each sidewalk, and its palatial residences, is pre-eminently the afreet of the Forest City. A friend ha* called our attention to the fact, as worthy of uote, that the flee elegant houses on this street, commencing at the corner of Spring street, have each made a contribution of flesh and Irfood to the war, to wit:—The first, that of Mr. Luther Dana, of the oldest established business house now in our city, has sent a sou; front the next, the mansiou house of the late Josiah S. Little, Esq., his son-in law, Chas. B. Merrill, Esq., is Lieut. Colonel of the 17th Volunteers; Mr. George Warren has two sons connected with the army; Ex. Chief Justice Shepley has contributed his son, George F., now M ilitary Governor of Louisiana. Sen ator Fessenden occupies the fifth house, and he has sent no less than three sons to his coun try’s defence; one of whom, the youngest, lias given his life to the cause, and another was Wounded In the arm. The future historians of the American Re bellion, “the great crime of history,” will, we doubt not, point to the fact that not only from the humble walks of life did men rush volun tarily to the defence of their country, but that also from the homes of elegance and affluence, was freely poured out the blood of their sons for the holy cause of liberty and union. Lewiston Recfitr.—The quota of nine months men, from the town of Lewiston was eighty. But the patriotic young men of that town volunteered iu so strong numbers that a full company of 101 men was made up. The officers of the company are Albert B. Soule Captain; Dudley B. Varuey 1st Lieut.; Kirk Moses, 2nd Lieut. Saturday the company came down to the city and inarched over to Camp Abraham Lin coln. It was escorted to the city by Engine Co. No. 3 of Lewiston, accompanied by tile Auburn Band. The engine company had a standard, on which was the following motto— “We have sent forty-two men it* the war.” At the depot they were met by a de tachment of Company A, Portland Battalion, under command of Sergeant Goss, ami was escorted to the camp. As the volunteers marched through the street they attracted the attention of our citizens. It is a manly looking set of tnen, and promises to do good service. The Engine Company dined at the Commer cial House, kept by N. J. Davis. Iu the after noon Engine Company No. 4 (Ocean) gave them a collation at their engine rooms, and the American Hube Company gave them another in their hall just before leaviug iu the cars. A delegation from Engine Company No. 4 es corted the Lewiston company to the cars, and at 6 o’clock they left on their return home. nr-R is the privilege of every business man to advertise or not as his own judgment may dictate; it is equally his right to adver tise with whom he pleases, to select his own medium of communication with the public, and those publishers whose papers are passed by have no legal or moral right to complain. Hut when a business man, dependent ui>on people of all shades of opinion for patronage, gives as a reason for refusal to advertise in any particular paper, that be won't patronize a “d— black republican” paper, the natural in ference is that he does not desire the patron age of Republicans, and is prepared to paddle his own business canoe only in waters corres ponding to his own taste. Is this what they mean Z3T~ Chestnut Street Church was crowded to overflowing yesterday afternoon, to hear the Rev. Mr. Cox preach upon the reliellion.— Hundred were turned away, unable to obtain even a standing position. Mr. Cox, having been for the past two years living in Missouri, has had good opportunities ol learning the progress of our armies in the West. He de livered a short sermon descriptive of the war in the West, many scenes and incidents of which had come under ids own personal ob servation. He is strongly in favor of a vigor ous prosecution of the war, until the rebels are completely subjugated. A Valuable Map.—H. L. Davis. No. 5M Exchange street, has put Into our hands one ot the best maps of Washington, with every furtillcaliou in the vicinity located accurately, and at the present time this map is very desir able, as it shows the accurate condition of every point around the city, showing a perfect line of defences. It is wrel! got up, and we predict for it a large sale. We also learn that our Maine 17th ami 19th Regiments are located in these fortifications. LATEST BY TELEGRAPH, TO THE Portland Daily Press. Reported Battle at Harper’s Perry REPULSE OF THE ENEMY. Occupation of Middlebury by the Enemy. Probable Battle near Hanover. FETREAT OF THE REBELS. Battle ut Mitlilletown. Philadelphia, Sept. 13. _ _ A dispatch has just been received from Col. Tims. A. Scott, from Harrisburg, stating that a battle is going on below Hagerstown between Col. Miles ami Jackson's forces, and calling on all troop* to rush to Harrisburg. Our citizens arc making a prompt response. Hundreds of armed men are rustling through the streets to tlie Pennsylvania railroad depot. Tile reported retreat ol Jackson is not credited ill well informed circles here, and tlie active preparations ol tin; Governor indicate that he does not put much trust in it. It is more probable that tlie rebel army lias selected Williamsport as a base of operations, and is establishing connections with Virginia at that point. Tlie Cbambersburg telegraph operator says lie Ills beard tiring all tlie afternoon from tlie vicinity of Martinsburg. Tlie Baltimore American of this morning Ills the following: A gentleman who left Frederick Thursday afternoon, states that when he left there was considerable coaster nation among the rebels witli regard to ru mors that had just reached town of a heavy battle at Harper's Ferry, in which Col. Hick son H. Mills attacked and repulsed Gen. Lur ing with great slaughter. The account was that Luring laid crossed the Potomac at Wil liamsport simultaneously with the crossing of Jackson and Lee at Leesburg, instead of marching towards Hagerstown, he had taken the river road in the direction of Harper’s Ferry. A short distance above Harper’s Ferry he attempted to ford the river with a large body of cavalry and infantry. Tlie report was that when tlie river was covered with rebel troops. Col. Miles opened on them with his batteries from Camp Hill and from tile tressle works of the railroad bridge wit It grape and canister, causiug the river actually to i mi with Wood, when tlie attempt was abandoned.— They had also previously made an attempt to storm tlie batteries ou the Maryland heights, ami were repulsed by our batteries, scattering them and strewing tile field w itlj tlie dead. That there was a tiirlit on Wednesday after noon was well known in Frederick, as cannon ading was heard there ior fully four hour's.— The current rumor, both among the rebels and citizens of Frederick, was as above staled. Tile special correspondent of the Press, who is eu route direct from Ueu. McClellan's army, which lie left last night, telegraphs briefly from Baltimore that bis news is good. The rumor about the repulse of Burnside is lalsc. Harrisburg, Sept. 1.3. The authorities have received important in formation regarding the reU-1 army in Mary land, from a gentleman »lio visited their camps and spent considerable time within their lines. There is no trutli in the report that martial law has been proclaimed here. Everything is progressing quietly. Troops are still pouring in from all directions of the State, and are be ing armed as fast as possible and sent to camp Curtin for instruction, before proceeding to Chatubersburg. Tbe rebels occupied Middlebury to-day with 30,000. infantry, and were followed by wagon trains. The locality of the late firing is not deflnite ly known, but is supposed to have been l>e tween tbe rcliels under Jackson, and a force of 11,500 men under Col. White at Marliusbnrg, or Col. Miles at Harper’s Ferry. Our pickets extend two miles beyond New castle. The rebels occupy the State line with 600 cavalry under Lt. Col. Brin. The late movements which have been going on in various camps here and in other parts of the State, resulted in tbe organization of a large force of cavalry, infantry and artillery, which are leaving for their destination. The force is considered sufficient to protect Cum berland valley and check the advance of tile rebels to ttie capital of the State. A strong force is to he retained at Camp Curtin to march at a moment’s notice, under Col. Campbell. Midnight.—L’p to this hour there has !>eeii nothing heard from any point on the border. Troops are now being transported thitherward. Harrisburg, Sept. 14. Heavy cannonading was heard this forenoon at Hanover, Greencastle and Chatubersburg, proceeding apparently from an action between Gen. McClellan and tbe rebels south of Hano ver. Gen. Reynolds has assumed command of the army for the defence of Pennsylvania. Ed ward McPherson, candidate tor Congress in the sixteenth district, is on the stall' as volun teer aid de camp. Later.—The excitement is increased by the reported cannonading at Chuinbcrsburg and Greencastle. Military ojieralions are progressing finely. Regiments are constantly lieiug forwarded, and troops are pouring in on foot and by rail from all directions. Information from rolicl sources received at headquarters at 8 o’clock this evening, state that the rebel had retired from the State line into Maryland, and that our pickets had been extended to the southward. No signs of the enemy were visible In the neighborhood of Middlebury and Wayne, Penh. Yesterday our cavalry approached within three miles of Hagerstown, without seeing any signs of the enemy. (In Saturday their scouts were reported to be within three tniles south of Green Castle. Heavy cannonading was distinctly heard at Green Castle this morning, in the direction of Harper’s Ferry, and con tinued up to one o’clock, when is ceased. As to the result nothing lias been received. On receipt of uews of the occupation of Frederick by Burnside and the advance of McClellan, the people became wild with en thusiasm. The telegraph offices were beseiged with regard to the result, anil great confidence is now felt here as to the safety of the State capital. There was a battle to-day ill Middletown. Lougstreet’s division moving on the Boone* boro road in Hie direction of Williamsport, with the intention, no doulit, of re-crossing the Potomac at that point, was engaged by the federals. Nothing otliciai lias been received at headquarters of the battle up to this hour, midnight. Kvaeuntion of Charleston, Va. Cincinnati, Sept. 13. Gov. Todd has ordered home the militia sent here for the defence of Cincinnati. The troops returned to the city this afternoon, their service* being no longer required in Kentucky, the force of regular troops there being suffi cient for any emergency. The rebels are reported to be at Alton. It is reported to-night that Charleston, Va., has been evacuated and burned by our troops, who arc falling back towards Ohio. Cincinnati, Sept. 14. Ail is quiet here. The enemy is still repre sented to be in force Soutli of Florence. Removal of Archleves and Treasure. New Yoiik. September 13. It is stated that last night many of the Phil adelphia capitalists brought or sent their treas ure in specie and paper to this city fur sale keeping. Mr. Henry 1 More,the State Treas urer of Pennsylvania, is now here. He brings with him valuable State and city archives from Philadelphia, also bonds and treasure. A special dispatch to the Tillies, from Wash ington, says John M. Botts lias been released on parole from the prison at Richmond, after three months confinement. Steamship Bremen, for Southampton ami Bremen, sailed this morning. From Kentucky. Lotitsvu.i.K, Ky., Sept. 13. A gentleman from Frankfort arrived here to-day, and says there were ISO relsvl cavalry there. Most of the troops have moved some distance from the town. Reliable information received, says Bragg is now at Tomkinsville. Two deserters from Buckner’s army say tliai Buckner was at Sparta, Tenn., Sunday last with 10,000 men, and was marching toward Kentucky. Occupation of Frederick by the Federals. GREAT. ENTHUSIASM. Washington, Sept. 14. The following was received this afternoon by the Associated Press agent through a spec ial messenger: Frederick, Sept. 13.—Frederick is ours.— The first of our forces entered tlie cast end of tlie town at 4 yesterday P. M.; half an hour later, a cavalry force under command of Gen. Pleasanton, entered tlie city by way of the Market street turnpike. The main body of the rebel forces evacuated the city on Thursday. A few cavalry from the command of Gen. Stuart, and the Ilamptou legion, made a charge upon our troops, when the latter enter ed, but the enemy were repulsed. Our loss was two killed and six wounded, while the re bels suffered at least to that extent. The reception of our forces was of a most enthusiastic character. Tlie entire city was overjoyed, and the people turned outen masse to welcome our forces. All along the streets through which our forces passed, Hags were waved from house-tops and windows, and the sidewalks were lined with spectators, including a full representation of ladies. The rebel forces are represented to be about 125,000. The citizens have suffered much from the rebel incursion, including the loss of domestic supplies. The enemy were in a ragged and starving condition, many ol them being without shoes. They confidently expected that at least 50, 000 men would flock to them in Frederick Uo. Jackson was here, together with Longstrect and Hill. They left Frederick with the intention to go to Pennsylvania, but subsequent events seem to indicate that they will endeavor to retreat into Virginia by way of Williamsport. This morning au engagement is going oil at the foot of the mountains, on tlie road to Sandy Hook, with the enemy, consisting of 2,UUU men and three batteriess. A portion of the enemy went to Hagerstown, while Jackson took tile left hand road to Har per's Ferry. The rebels left about 450 of their sick in Frederick. About 40 prisoners were taken last night and this A. M., between this city and the mountains. The government, as is generally supposed, issued all order interfering with the issue of small notes by the regular batiks of this dis trict. it is understood that no such order is now contemplated. Midnight.—That fight has lieen progress ing the direction of Harper's Ferry seems be I yond question both on the Virginia and Mary land sides of tile Potomac. Heavy tiring has lieen heard all day with but brief interruptions. The reports were audible two miles from tlie city. The news thus far received through private sources gives promise of beneficial re sults to the Union cause, and has accordingly elated the spirits of all loyal men. Mail communication with Frederick will be resumed to-morrow. SECESSION SYMPATHIZERS. Gen. Burnside in pursuit of the Rebels. Capture or a Uobol Ammunition Train. J AC KSO N ltETR E ATI NG. Baltimore, Sept 13. The Clipper says:—We learn from good au thority that the secessionists in Baltimore are nightly sending to the rein*! army near Fred erick loads of goods, shoes, clothing, Ac. The road is lined with vehicles loaded w ith articles of this kind as high as fifty of a night. All are furnished by their sympathizers here. We demand of those w ho have authority to look to this forthw ith. Baltimore. Sept. 14. Tltc re|H»rt that the rebels had made an at tack on the Northern Central Railroad is un founded. There w as cannonading at Harper’s Ferry all day yesterday, ceasing at 4 o’clock I*. M. The result hits not yet been learned. Gen. Burnside passed through Frederick early oil Saturday A. M„ and the whole army pushed on after the enemy by every road,even, crossing Helds. .The people of Frederick turned out to welcome I!urnside with the wildest enthusiasm, men women uud children. When Gen. Met llellan came, the people blocked up the streets so that it was difficult for him to reacli his headquarters. Tile scene is de scribed as grand. The waving of flags and handkerchiefs was universal, and each of the women and children sounded words of wel come at the top of their voices. Our advance guard entered Frederick on Friday at 5 o'clock, and had a skirmish on the streets with Stuart’s cavalry; several were killed ami wounded on both sides, and Col. Moore, of the loyal Vir ginia cavalry, was captured by the reliels and carried otf, but was afterwards retaken. The rebels diii not destroy the three turnpike i bridges over the Monocacy, but left nothing but the piers standing of the splendid iron railroad bridge. A rebel train of 100 ammunition and sub sistence wagons was captured by Gen. Frank liu. 150 prisoners had been sent into Frederick. Two railroad employees who were taken prisoners by Jackson near William-port, have returned. They say he took them witlt him across the river, and when his division had crossed on Friday, allowed them to return, therefore there can be no doubt of the fact tlint Jackson is on the other bide of the river. Destruction of n Union Newspaper Ollier. No fears of an Invasion of Pennsylvania. DESTRUCTION OF REBEL TRAINS Renewal of the Battle near Har per’s Perry. Frederick, Md., Sept. 13. [By special messenger to the Associated Press.]—On our way thither this morning from Urbatia, after crossing the Monocacy, Gen. McClellan and stall' passed through Gen. .Sum ner’s troop-, who opened their ranks for tliat purpose. Tile enthusiasm w ith which lie was received by that veteran corps is beyond de scription. jit'iort* me reoeis ictt rreuerick they sacked anil destroyed t lie Union newspaper office. The ladies were forced to hide the American tings about their persons to prevent the rebels from conveying them off. In the artillery duel which last till 1 o'clock between (Jen Pleasanton and the rear guard of the rebels, we had three horses killed and two wounded. The reliels, fearful of being sur rounded by infantry, fell backfiller miles be yond the mountains to Middletown, from which place they were driven in the I’. M. Our troops held tlie towu during the night. Burning morning.—There is no probability thatour troiqis will remain inactive. There is now no tear of an invasion of Pennsylvania. The triM)|>s are in excellent spirits at their re ception by the people of Maryland. The sick and wounded rebels left here have been pa rolled. Yesterday P. M. the 8th Illinois cavalry, Col. Farnsworth, charged on two rebel regi ments of cavalry ami three guns a short dis tance aliove Middletown, on the road to Hag erstown. We hail three wounded, ami took ninety prisoners. This charge is represented at having been a splendid affair. Later in the afternoon four squadrons of the 3d 1ml. cavalry charged on a regiment of cav alry, supported by artillery, in the wood lead ing from Middletown to Harper's Ferry. It was a desperate affair. We lost 30 killed and wounded. The loss of the enemy in killed ami wound ed during yesterday, was double of ours. Our cavalry so pushed the enemy’s wagon trains yesterday, that they were forced to burn hall a mile of wagons to prevent their falling into our hands. A man who left Harper’s Ferry yesterday P. M., report* that Longstreet was repulsed there in the forenoon. At this writing, 8 A. M., the battle has been renewed in the direction of Harper’s Kerry.— The tiring is rapid and heavy. Our main col umn will come up with the enemy.il is thought, this P. M., when a battle must take place. The forces engaged by our troops yesterday, were those covering the rebel retreat. The men are in tine spirits, and anxious to he led forward to rid the Marylanders, who have treated them so well, of all invaders. Dentil of Hon. J. It. Thompson. Tkextojj, N. Sept. 13. lion.

The result of the light is un known. Nothing has been heard of I.ighthurn since Saturday, at (j P. M. Up to that time our troops were holding the ground, punishing the enemy severely. It is understood our forces destroyed all the salt works. Ligiitburu brought 8000 loaded wagons to the Elk river in safety. Tlie retreat to the Elk river was conducted in good order. Great anxiety is felt for the safety of Light burn's command, as well as for Point Pleasant and Galiipoiis. The militia are coming here from this and other counties.

IMS. dBm Courage Invalids CLEMS' SUMMER CURE —AMD— Howes’ Cough Fills, Bv the concurrent testimony of many suflbrers, the fact has been established, that for the care of DIAKKIHEA OR DYSENTERY In persons of all ages, no medicine has ever come to the knowledge of the public, that so effectually doea it work and at the same time leaves the bowels In aa active, healthy condition, as CLEM'S SUMMER CURE. That for Children Cutting Teeth, if troubled with Dtarrhcea or any irregularities of the bowels, all oth er remedies are insignificant, as compared with CLEM'S SUMMER CURE. That fbr Children troubled with Canker in mouth or stomach, or mothers suffering from nursing sore mouth, a safe and speedy cure is effected by the use of CLEM'S 8UMXER CURE. That for Coughs, Hoarseness and Bronchial affect ion-, there is no remedy extant that so universally affords relief as HOWES’ COUGH P1LL8. That for a Tightness or Wheezing in the Cheat, Pains in the side, or a long standing Hack, the best remedy is HOWE’S COUGH PILLS. That as an expectorant and ameliorating agent in cases of Phthisic, Whooping Cough, and Confirmed Consumption, the public have already rendered their uuited verdict iu favor of HOWES’ COUGH P1LL8. CLEM'S SUMMER CURE is a pleasant, agreeable decoction of Roots and Barks, and contains not a particle of Opium OK Dura of any sort. It always does good, and never does harm.
