NORTHERN TROOPS AT COCkEYsVILLE.
In the absence of any reliable news from the
"enemy, the widest and most extravagaut rum0rs
obtained credenee. IL was varously asserted at diff
ierent periods of tie day. that the Pennsy lyanians
were advancing skirmishiDg with the country people
who were endeavoring to impede their progress by
firing Mt them IRON behind hedges that panic-strcken
at the formidable preparations for their reception, they
had cut across the country under the pllOtage OF
Baltimore newsboy; and again, that they had not
budged from Cockeysvle, but had entreuched them
selves there, and were waiting for TeGnforcements
before attempting further progress through Maryland
The fret mentioned rumor was by far the most popu'

had their appetite for great revenge stimulated,
Were exceedingly impatient at the delay OF It's gatli-

volunteer corps fdrmee for the purpose of Immediately
meeting the invaders and Of beating them back.
This proposition met with much favor and hundreds
of npetuous spirits, confident Of being followed by
larger numbers, left the city IN wagons carriages, pug
GIGS and other vehicles, determined to wage guerrilla
warfare with the advancing force. Not less than oOO
men, il ia estimated, lett Baltimore for this purpose,
armed with ehot guns and rifles AT a subsequent Pc
Iiod of the day, when the pacillc Intentions OF tbe
Pennsylvapiaus and the peaceful policy Of the Admin
f-tati0n became fully known earnest fears prevailed
that these hot and eager would begin an attack
upon the Northern troOps and lead 70 most unne-
cessary and melancholy waste Of human life.
Thee fears we learn, Were happily not realized,
though the encampment of The Pennsy lyanians was
visited, is said unchaIleDged, by scores OF Baltl-
moreans, who were cordially e,elyed and entertained
from II gentleman WHO Nlflltu tHc CdHlp we icdlH

Northern troops through their city, they had halted
upon the first ntmaion Of the hostile intentions Of
the authorities OF this city, and far from entertaining
any idea OF forcing passage through Baltimore, they
held our citizens in peculiar and friendly regard.
One Of the companies composing the force-a corps

tofore enjoyed relations Of friendship aud of pleasant
social intercourse aud transmitted them many verbal
evidences Of their continued good will and regard.
Only about 0ne-third Of the whole force were uni.
formed and drilled; the remainder recruits
unarmed and ununormed. There were but 1860 stand

vicinity refusing il is said to sell them food upon any
terms.
All donbs of the issue Of the hostile attitude of the
opposing forces were, however, removed about
o'clock, by the public announcement by Bigader-
General Watkins that President Lincoln had just
pledged his word that more troops should pass
through or around Baltimore and that the troops ut
Cockeysvie should be ordered back to Harrisburg.
The correctness Of the announcement being confirmed
in official quarters, the troops were Immediately dis
missed, wi the exception Of details from each CON-
pany TO guard their respective armores and the stormy
scenes OF the day were succeeded by comparative
quetude more beng tho sacred character Of the day.
