length become the scene Of exciting action.
Gen. Magrudcr,a at the head Of force Of 1000
rebels, including 200 cavalry and eight pic
ccs Of artillery, advanced from Yorktown on
Friday last, and arrived ut a point within
three miles Of the town Of Hampton on
Wednesday. About midnight Of that day q
party of the rebels entered the town, which
consisted Of five hundred houses. and ret fre
to it with torches in different directions.
Nearly the whole town was consumed in
brief space Of time, the inhabitants nceing
at few moments notice. The fire ragged
all night.
Gen. Butler having received intelligence
of the advance Of the rebels from descrter,
moved body of tho n. Y. Goth rides, un-
der Col. Weber, to the lower side Of Ilamp-
ton. bridge, in order to protect Camp Hamil-
ton and Newport News, upon which II was
supposed the enemy were about to make an
attack. lie remained there until ii o'clock,
and had barbados erected and strong guards
posted at various points on the line OF tho
creek. A portion Of tho rebels attcmptcdto
force passage over the bridge, but wero
driven back. During the night II appears
that several shots were exchanged between
the rebels in the town and the pickets Of
Col. Webcr's troops across the bridge.
Rumors were in circulation that the town
was fred by orders Of Gen. Butler; but this
Is false, the TACT being that some Of the resi-.
dents Of Hampton set fire to their own dwell
lings In obedience to the orders Of the rebel
leader.
The Quaker City. on tho morning Of tho
10th, brought up the prirc schooner George
p. Baker. Of Galveston, and her rebel crew

by our feet Of Galveston, and sent 70 New
York with federal prize crow on board
She was captured again the 9th OF Ha!teras,
by the pirate York, who put four Of her own
crew on board. Meanwhile the York was
seen by tho gunboat Union, which ga,o
chase and burnt the pirate. but not until shc
was bcached and her crew had escaped, TAX
ing with them tho federal prire crew. The
Union then recaptured the George P. Baker,
and made prisoners Of her pirate crew, trans
ferring them to the Quaker City.
On Saturday LaNlountain made two sue
ccssful asccnsions, in ono Of which he at

offered our own testimony to its utter untruth
as we were cognizant Of the passage OF all
these acts referred to by Mr.. johnson. but we
preferred to give the testimony ola witness
whose Democracy we know will stand the
investigation of any Northern Democrat.
The fifth resolve is however the one which
stamps the convention as being formed on
the model of the Hartford Convention. II
abounds in "palpablc absurdities," false
statements, and cunning differences. II is
the sneak Of the concern.
Other matters press on our columns this
week and oblgc us to defer unit our next issue
to notice this resolve, which in more respects
than one il in spirit and character precisely
such as the members of the Hartford Convcn-
ton would have passed, had the question OF
secession been before them-thcre is the
leaning towards dsmemberment OF the
Union, the assertion that the measures OF
the government to stop rebellion are uncon-
stitational and tyrannical, and spirit OF
iaultfnding and censure on the government
such as prevailed at the HARTFORD CONVEX
ZION.
We acquit the masses Of the Democratic
party Of the County of York, of harboring
in their hearts the treason which lies con.
cealed in this resolve.
Had they been present and fully considered
the adroit language which was used to prac-
,ically put them on the side of Submission to
all the demands OF rebels or to consent to a
Acknowledgement Of the Union. we do not
believe the resolution would have beer passed
nor would they have consented to the auda'
eious lie that, "all the great constitutional
rights on which our ircedom rests are being

But 1t seems from your communication that YOU
claim the right to violate the hospital flag because
ii may be abused Admit this principe and we
revert to state of barbarsm. The sick the

General LorinG.


Maj. Chas DeMorse, of the Clarksville Standard,
in noticing paragraph in the News about Gen.
Loring, has the following: a.
Gen. Loriug was a private of one of the compa-
MES composing the NeWYork expedition to Texas;
which LETT New York city Nov. 2lst, 1886 when
Texas was supposed to have population, includ-
ing women and children, of % 900. Young Loring
marched with Warehouses; command to find the
army of Gen. Houston, and had got within six
miles Of San Jacinto battle ground when the action
was fought. The expedition originally comprised
1856 men, with contributed supplies OF provisions,
some boxes of pixies and sabres 1t was captured
off New Providence, by. the British bris,ofwar
Serpent, Capt Nepean, and detained in Nassau
on the false charge of piracy, for forty days, and
alterward detained at the Balize, for the want Of
supplies, or the entire, force awould necessarily
have been with Fannin or at the Alamo, the point
of debarEation being Matagorda, from which
neighborhood most of Fannin's men started. When
it did arrive, however, the Alamo had just fallen,
and Fannn and Ward were slaughtered, and
where Gen. Houston's command was nobody could
tell The only course was to strike northeasterIy,
and to search for them. The expedition from New
Gork,Was got up by contributions, and through the
influence of n few individuals, Texas being COM
paratiyefy unknown and without means Samuel
NJ. Williams Esq, Texas Commissioner, was pre
sent, soliciting aid. The British Commander who
captured and detained the Matawanlkeag doubt
less did so as u matter of duty. 1t was reported
to him that q schooner, crowded with armed men,
was cruising ia E&uma Sound, carrying no flag, and
the men occasionally going ashore and supplying
themselves with fresh provisions. .
Texas was not q known, power, and the men of
the Natawamkeag were emigrants ostensibly, who
hau secretly banded together and eyaded the reye.
nue. officers who would have stopped them, but per
haps, had directions from Swartwout, the Collector
OF the Port of New York, and friend to Texas
not to be too scrutinizng. We have no doubt that
the British Captain really supposed the captured
craft pratical, until he took ii into port and had
conference with such of the members as had let
