Important War Observation-Disclosures
FORTRESS MONROE, June 81.

The regiment which yesterday made a
reconnaissance towards Great Bethel, re-
turned late in the evening, having gone to
the neighborhood of Little Bethel. They
brought back intelligence of Importance: 1t
is understood that the Confederates are con-
eentrating a large force at Yorktown. It is
safe to say that importat movements are
going on at Sewall's Point; also at Will
loughby Point, some four miles further
down, and opposite the Rip Raps.
Herald's Specisl.-Gentlemen here who
are in communication with Unionists of
East Tennessee are of the opinion that the
Convention called TO meet at Knoxville will
pursue a course similar to that adopted by
the Wheeling Convention in Virginia. They
will repudiate the usurpers at Nashville
elect Governor and organize State Gov
eminent as near as possible in conformity
with theqproyisions of the State Constitu-
ton, and call upon the loyal men of Ten
nessee to rally to their support. The Union
men there are at the fighting point All
they want from the Government is arms.
When they have them they will take care
of themselves, and close the Cumberland
Gap Railroad against the Rebels, 1t has
been the main avenue for reinforcements
and supplies to the Rebels in Virginia. This
movement win supply another segment to
the circle of Union men thatyis being grad
ually frightened around the Rebels in Yir-
ginia.

On the e2d the ladies of Palermo, Kan
sas, presented flag to the Marion Guards,
= of that place. During the ceremonies of
the day, a number of rowdy Secessionists
roamed about the streets, cursing Union
men and hurrahing for JEFF. Davis. AT
length their insults became unbearatle. and
a party of Unionists took them in hand and
gave them severe drubbing. Three of the
rascals were SO roughly handled that they
are still confined to their beds.
We are sorry to learn that in the fracas
our esteemed friend Hon. Nathan Price, of
the last Territorial Council, and an uncom-
promising Union man, was severely injured.

THE FOURTH.

Next Thursday is the great Anniversary
Of Independence, which the American peo-
pie love to celebrate-or at least large
portion of lhem. Since we last celebrated
this day, it has been stricken from the list
of holidays in some of the States. If any
one had told us, OH the Fourth of July,
1860, that one short year would find ten Of
the States of this Union in rebellion, who
would have believed it And yet there are
ten States where this great National INDIE
pendence Day will not be celebrated, unless
it be by the Northern army. We wish we
could hear the news of its celebration by
our army in the streets of Richmond or
Montgomery, by hanging the great traitor
JEFF. Davis. Such an exercise on that day
would be, we think, very appropriate.
The people of this region of country are
preparing to spend the Fourth in profit
able manner, as becomes all patriots. AT
Allen, on the Santa Fe road, better known
as Charley Withington's, there is to be a
grand barbecue. An OK is to be roasted,
the Waterloo Rangers are to parade, there
is to be singing. speaking. and a variety OF
exercises, to conclude in the evening with
a ball, in bower sixty feet long. At Wa
terloo the people will celebrate in the vicin-
ity of R. w. Clouds residence, by picnic,
speaking. music, etc. Our citizens are
cordially invited to attend, and those who
do so will enjoy it. We. understand thai
the good people of Americas and Fremont
will unite in celebrating the day somewhere
on Allen creek We have not been fur
nished with .he particulars. At Council
Grove there is to be a grand ball in tn'
evening, which we understand several o
our young folks will attend. We wish then
a good time. at Madison Center, in Madi
son county. tie people will celebrate th'
Fourth by diuner, speaking. procession
dance, etc. How our own people vii
spend the day We do not know. We know
of nothing going on here. Probably the!
will enjoy themselves in various ways. l
will do them good to visit any of the cele
brations we have mentioned above.
