The excitement at Harpers Ferry on Thursday night
was caused by the burning of wheat stack about three
miles from CharlestOwn. The military and popuace
were called to arms and the widest terror prevailed
among the people the superstition being that COL Davis
had some information of approaching danger The panic
OF the people extended to Col. Davis and messenger
was sent by him to the Ferry with despatch for the
governor, calling for two companies of cavalry. The
lire was found to have been the work of an in
cendiary but person could be found in the county on
whom suspicion could rest There now one thousand
men under arms at llarper's Ferry and Charlesown,
and no enemy to be found to encounter The troops
from Alexandria arrived at Charlesown yesterday af
ternoon and those sent by the way of Winchester are
expected to-day. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company have sent Col A p. Shut, with an armed
posse to Harpers Ferry to guard the bridge and the
property of the company at that point. There is much
dissatisfaction expressed both at Harpers Ferry and at
CharestoWn, at the precpate action of Col Davis in
sending dispatches for troops, instead Of first sending
out posse to inquire into the of the fire. They
think they have been made to appear in a ridiculous
light before the country, and they than hall
right Oh that point.
