FREDERICK, MD, June IA 1t was reported
by Il messenger this morning, from within a
mile of Harpers Ferry, that the bridge across
the Potomac at that point had been blown up
and entirely destroyed between four and five
this morning The explosion was distinctly
heard and the smoke OF the burning structure
seen by parties here. He also reports that the
troops had been withdrawn from the Maryland
shore, and the town of Harper's Ferry cvacu-
ated by the main body of the troops, leaving
only small force there, probably the rear
guard. He also reports that eight car loads of
provisions were destroyed, to prevent their
falling into tie hands OF the Union forces,
who are supposed 10 be concentrating upon
Harpers Ferry from the direction of Green
Castle and Cumberland. The wife and family
OF Gen. Hagcr. were at the Ferry last night,
and had engaged a private conveyance to con
vey them further southwark, but were com
PEELED to accompany the column in its flight
The destruction of the bridge may be regard
ed as certain, confrmatory intelligence having
been received here within few minutes. A
gentleman who was at Harper's Ferry, last
night, saw the preparations being made for
blowing up the bridge. AT Shepardstown the
bridge was also destroyed last night.

CASE OF IL. d. SToNE.-The supreme
court at Boston. on Thursday, heard argu-
ments in the case of Henry ID. Stone. The
case comes under the name of VIM. S. Den
ny ct al. VS.. Judge Nation ct al, upcn pc
tition to test tie proceedings and determine
the rights of property under the first insol-
vency OF Henry d. Stone OF Worcester. The
first proceedings were held invalid by the
Court, under the petition of the Grafton Bank.
Alice G. Earle, who took mortgage of the
real estate through the first assiguees, now
seeks to have the first proceedings set up,
because the legislature confirmed them, and
because she was not party in the former suit.
The second assignees, L, b. Stoddard and j.
II. Clarke, resist her petition, on the ground
that they received an assignment OF Stones
estate previous to the passage of the act of the
legislature, and that the act is unconstitutional.
The hearing came on by special assignment,
and was finished. The counsel in the case
were Geo. L. Very for VIM. S Denny; T.
l.. Nelson and Sidney Bartlett for Alice c.
Earle Geo. F. Hoar for II. II. Chamberlain
Benjamin T. Thomas and VIM. L. Slocum,
for the Grafton Bank P. c. Bacon and f. II.
Dewey for the assignees and parties interested
under the second or last proceedings.

The New York Times of the 4th inst,
says President Lincoln has sent out orders
to the Western Military Department trans
ferring the command from Fremont to Hun

conviction of Fremont's ineompetency in
general, and the gross proHigacy in the ex-
penditure of the public money, under his
administration.

The Soldiers Pay.

We agree most cordially with those of our
contemporaries who have advocated the rails
ing of the pay of the soldiers. The officers
are already handsomely paid. They reap in
an especial degree the honors of the war
Their names figure conspicuously in the OFF,
cial dispatches, and in the Mandatory accounts
of newspaper correspondents. The privates
endure far greater hardships and privations.
The great majority of them are poor, and
have left their families at the call of their
country to struggle along as they best could.
a slight addition to the pay of the private
would not add seriously to the burdens of the
war and its debt, while it would augment
greatly the means which the defenders of our
soil wonld be able to devote to those they
love. One argument alone would suffice for
the increase It is the rise in value of near
~ all the necessaries of life. For these rea-
sons we feel assured that one of the very first
acts of the Confederate Congress, when it re-
assemblies, win be to raise he pay of the SOL
der in the ranks. Any delay in this meas
ure of justice will provoke feeling of indig-
nation which will not fail to take account of
these who may stand in the way.--Riehmond

since he now appears in London as blind

sMr. Paulsen offered to play, blindfolded.
ten OF the best players of this country, and
carry on the games simultaneously. Mr..
Paulsen had previously been victorious in a
contest on the same terms with fifteen play
ers; but they we're not all first class, and af-
ter bis triumph he expressed wish to be
pitted against ten Of the ablest players that
could be produced. The match yesterday has
excited great interest In chess circles since
the preliminaries were arranged, and when
ut commenced there was q numerous compa-
ny in the room, which, it is needless to say.
consisted chiefly of chess-players. The fol-
lowing are the names of the ten gentlemen
who were Mr.. Paulsen's opponents, viz: L.
Mr.. Mackenzie, amateur; 2. Mr.. Sabouroff,
Russian Embassy; 8. Mr.. Maude, London
Club; S. Mr.. Barnes, st. Georges Club; 6.
MIR. Borden, amateur; Z. Mr.. Campbell; 8.
Mr. Robey; 8. Mr.. Lamb, amateur; 10. MIR.
Wormald, Hon. Secretary st. James's Club.
'sAt two o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Paul
sen assembled a platform in the centre of the
room and seated himself In chair. For the
instruction of those who are uninitated in
chess matters ii may be stated that literally
he was not blindfolded- is to say, there
was no bandage round his eyes; but as his
back was towards the players. and his face
directly towards the window, it was physi-
|. cally impossible that he could see anything
on the boards Of his opponents. He was
quite cool and collected, and appeared to
contemplate the result without any misgiv-
ing. He had the first move in all the games,
and he announced kings pawn 2 and all
round. The game proceeded slowly, and it
soon became apparent that. although Mr.
Paulsen had undertaken to combat ten oppo-
nents, he was really playing against the most
of the gentlemen Ia the room, who were
consulting with his opponents as to the tao
tics by which he could be defeated. The
match was entirely for honor. Mr..Paulsen,
indeed, had small bet in his own favor
with Mr.. Mackenzie, but otherwise there was
no betting. Now az to the result. At five
o'clock Mr.. Campbell was declared the vic
tor in his game; at ten o'clock Mr.. Sabour
was equally fortunate, and at half past ten
Mr.. Mackenzie confessed himself beaten and
resigned. About half past twelve Mr.. Robey
offered to draw, which Mr.. Paulsen agreed to,
although he had the best of the game, and
about five minutes after the game with MFR.
Barnes was also drawn. Shortly after one
o'clock Mr.. Lambs game was also drawn
The remaining games were drawn. (,
"During the contest, which lasted nearly
twelve hours, Mr.. Paulsen was out of his
chair for about two minutes, and the only
refreshment he partook of was glass of
