From the Richmond Dispatch Of saturday.


Passengers by the Central train yesterday
report some interesting proceedings in Pat
terson's camp at Martinsburg Some four
thousand Pennsylyanians, who enlisted for
three months. made up their minds to leave
and 20 home. One account says objection
was made. and fight took place. in which a
considerable number of useless lives were
lost. We cannot youch for the accuracy Of
the last mentioned report, but have no doubt
that the three months men determined to
leave the service.
From Western and Northwestern Virginia
the accounts are vague. A dispatch from
Cincinnati makes it appear that Capt. o. j.
Wise, OF the Blues, had captured three com
panies Of Federalists. It's probable that an
engagement has taken place in the neighbour
hood Of Laurel Hill, between Gen. Garnetrs
Confederate forces and MeClellan's com
mand, since the Cincinnati kilograms inform
US that they we're approaching each other al
last accounts. We have nothing further in
regard to the reported engagement of the 9TH.
II the Federalists were detected on that day
as has been stated. we should hardly receive
any account Of it from the North.
In consequence of Gen. SCOTS order for
the suppression of telegraphic dispatches, we
have nothing from the Northern Associated
Press relative to the army movements on the
Potomac.
Col. Thomas, the intrepid Mary has
been indicted for treason and piracy.
The captured Hessidns are hard at work
on our Notifications at Winchester.
A correspondent Of the Richmond Enquir.
er says:
open my letter to you to inform you tina
to-day. near Gen. Garnetts camp, there wal
an engagement between the Georgia Ragi
ment and large body Of the Yankees, il
which the Georgians killed 60 or 20 Of the
Yankees, and took four-horse wagon and
team, and some arms. Only one Of the Geor,
gians was wounded. AT the Rich Mountain:
there has been some fghting-the result no
known. It's believed that the Yankees have
a large force, aud are making their way into
this valley, 10 surround our army and cap.
ture our stores and ordnance. They will re,
ceiye a rough handling.
RicHMoND, July s.-.Several prominentFed
eral prisoners now in Richmuld, aud at lib
erty on their parole Of honor, have been ar
rested and confined, in consequence Of the
recent Federal action against persons arrest
ed as priyateers. The South will deman,
life for life, il the North dares to harm priva
teers.
