cting marching orders immediately. Gov. Curtin received a dispatch from Chambersburg which states that Jenkins was at Waynesburg, twelve miles from Chambersburg, Saturday evening. He had been plundering the houses among the mountains. Gen. Couch has received a dispatch confirming the report that the rebel cavalry were at Gettysburg. The force that went to McConnelsville, in Fulton, to 25 miles from Chambersburg, helped themselves to whatever they wanted in the stores, collected together a large number of cattle and horses, and then moved off towards Hancock, Md. A small mounted force rode into Frederick, Saturday, paroled the sick soldiers in the hospitals, took a few horses, and left. No attack has been made so far on Harper's Ferry. Three thousand laborers have been called into service, and negroes freely impressed, for the thorough fortification of Baltimore. Nothing definite is published in regard to the movements of Gen. Lee's army, or of Hooker's.
eeting has presented to the enrolling officer a series of resolutions, conveying the pleasant information that any attempt to enroll will be made "at his peril." If Pennsylvania news circulates in Indiana, this officer's reflections must be of the most gloomy character. To use the expression of the intelligent telegrapher at Wartrace, Tenn., "things is working." Maryland, it appears, is likely to be the scene of another battle. It is positively stated (but not by Northern papers) that Hooker has crossed into Maryland by the different fords between White's ferry and Seneca. General Rodes's headquarters are reported to be at Williamsport, Md., and Hagerstown is said to be held by us as a base of supplies from the Cumberland Valley. There are 10,000 Confederates at Cumberland, and a number of canal boats on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal have been destroyed by the rebels. The departments at Washington are packing up their archives, and we suppose that it might be added with truth
ry Frights[Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch. Near Middlesboro, June 23, 1863. The last week — from June 17th to yesterday inclusive — has been characterized by incessant conflicts between the cavalry under Gen. Stuart and the enemy's. Heavy damage has been inflicted upon the latter, and he has received a lesson by which he seems disposed to profit. Nearly a week ago our cavalry drove back the enemy's near Middleburg, too a great number of prisoners, and captured two members of Hooker's staff. Engagements have occurred every day since, but that which took place on June 21st was the most never and one of the hottest of the war. The enemy under Gens. Pleasanton, Stahl, and Barnes, advanced early in the morning with nearly of quite 20,000 cavalry, fifteen regiments of infantry, and four or five batteries, and attacked Gen. Stuart on the Little River Turnpike between Middleburg and Rector's Creas Roads, at the same time moving on his left and endeavoring to cut him off from
een intending to visit a Yankee camp about two miles distant, that of the 1st Army Corps, which is described as remarkably attractive in locality and arrangements, being laid out with streets and sidewalks, in city style, with arches overhead the whole length, covered with interlacing boughs of greenery to impart a cooling shade to the promenaders. Artistic taste developed in adorning the "summer bowers" of the Army of the Potomac, as a Washington paper characterized their encampment, where Hooker had apparently settled down for the summer, until roused to precipitate evacuation by Confederate general-ship. No doubt permanent location would be very much to Yankee taste, both at Belle Plain and Aquia. At the latter place, I heard this morning, two gunboats were still stationed, and shelling at intervals, in order to preserve the wharves and buildings from the destruction. I have no doubt an effectual veto will be put upon any future occupation of that point. Stafford needs complete
Affairs at Nashville The Nashville correspondent of the New York Freeman's Journal sends an interesting letter from that city. When Hooker was defeated at Chancellorsville, the Nashville Press and Union published extras announcing the utter annihilation of the Confederate army.--The next morning they apologized for having published the lie, and said the information was furnished them by official authority. The Press, however, a few days after, published a dispatch from Philadelphia announcing that Gen Keys had taken Richmond, and that "the Federal flag now floats over the rebel capital." The correspondent gives an interesting account of the scenes upon taking the oath: The period of fifteen days allowed for Nashville and the surrounding country to become loyal has expired, and the sum total is 7,344 oaths, of which 721 were those of non-combatants. Among these are persons of every degree and shade of degree, the large majority no doubt deeming it a necessity to save them
