Guerilla Raids.

CAIRO, August /.
Advices have been received from Bloomfield,
Mo-, that 100 of Col Daniels command were
surrounded by some 800 or 800 rebels and that
sharp fight is going on. 1t is thought that
they can sustain themselves until reinforce
ments arrive, which are on the way.
Several gentlemen from Boonville arrived
here last evening They bring some particu-
lars of rebel raid by Col. Faulkner on that
place on Friday last. Every man that was
there buying cotton. was taken prisoner and
100000 worth Of cotton were burned. Five
hundred federal cavalry arrived the same eve
ming. The rebels fled but were pursued and
a slight engagement took place on the Hatchee
and Forked Deer river. A number of rebels
were captured. The ferry and bridge have
been destroyed.
The guerilla jackson was at Remaken on
Saturday with 800 of his cavalry. 1t is re-
ported that the rebels are marching on Boil
var. jackson used a pontoon bridge to cross
the Forked Deer river.
Later advices state that heavy cannonading
was heard at Bolivar on Saturday and Sunday
On Sunday the telegraph line was destroyed
and portions of the Mobile and Ohio railroad
at Humboldt were torn up by the rebels.
QUINCY, ILL.,, August 2.
About $50 rebels under the guerilla Dunn,
attacked Canton, No. 16 miles North of this
place last night. They shot man named

rifles stored in his warehouse. They then
took possession of the rifles and plundered all
the stores in the place. After obtaining all
they wanted they left. The amount of dam
age done is not ascertained. Mr.. Cavgg is

MEMPHIS, July 81.
The gunboat Carondelet arrived here yes
terday from Vicksburg but brings no later
news.
The bulletin of this morning has the follow
ing intelligence from authentic sources:
Among other military items as TO the pro-
ceedings of the rebels, we have some inkling
on the subjects discussed at two conferences
of all the principal rebel military leaders held
in Richmond on the 4th and 9th. 1t is under
stood that they come to the conclusion that
they must lose no more territory. The defen-
sive policy of the south thus far was strongly
attacked, and Generals Lee and Beauregard
advised the invasion of the North from three
points, viz: from Cumberland on Williamsport
into Pennsylvania, from Louisville and Cincn-
natl into Indiana and Ohio, and from Paducah
and Cairo into Illinois. 1t is alleged that the
following plan of operations for the summer
campaign were agreed upon:
LIST. The immediate obstruction of the James
river, TO make 1t impossible for Con. McClel-
Ian to use it for the means for communication
with the government and for the TRANSFORMATION
of reinforcements and army supplies.
I'd. The occupation of Williamsburg, York
town and the entire Peninsula.
3d. The recovery of the whole of the terri
tory of Virginia and the suppression of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
4th. The recovery of New Orleans, Memphis
and the Mississippi river, and the expulsion OF
the federal troops from Tennessee and Ken
lucky. When these objects have been accom-
plished Generals Lee and Beauregard propos-
ed 5th: to make Potomac and Ohio rivers
at once their basis of operations and the from
tier line and transfer the seat of war from Vir-
ginia to Maryland.
9th. To hurl upon Washington from Rich
mond column of 100000 picked troops, and
Al Al.
of the city of Baltimore, and then invade the
North from the three points above named.
BY thus becoming the invaders, the rebels
hope to make 1t necessary uor us to keep al
home, for the defence of our cities 100000
troops.

Guerilla Bands.

HUDSON, Mo-, August 8.
Porter's band of guerillas crossed the north
Missouri railroad Wednesday and on Thurs
day night crossed the Hannibal AMI st. Joseph
railroad, on their way to the northern counties.
They were pursued by Col. Guitars forces.-
Porter had between and 100 men. Bands
numbering 10, p and 80 were constantly join
ing him. Pondexter, another notorious ma
rauder, with about an equal number of men
was maching on Glasgow yesterday where
there are less than 200 of our troops. The
guerrillas in north eastern Missouri win prob
ably number 1000, but it is confidently believ-
that their operations will be speedily brought
to a close. Porter and Poindexter profess to
have come from the Confederate government
to raise recruits and then join Price, who it is
expected will soon be in the State again.

B-In noble tribute to the late Hon. Rue
Williams, correspondent of the Boston Cour-
Ter says
The lawyers of his day were well-versed in
the law relating to real estate, and no one I'M
derstood it, with all its incidents and niceties,
In its whole scope and range, better than Mr..
Williams He was emphatically the '.land
lawyer" of his time. Whitman, Wilde. Nell
en-, Greenleaf, Fessenden, Allen, Bond Sprague
Rice, Boutelle, Evans, Emmons, and many 9TH
er able lawyers, were his contemporaries and
associates, but his knowledge of the principles
and practice of the law relating to real estate,
was not surpassed by either of these justly
distinguished men.

Enthusiastic War Meetings.
From Washington.

WASHINGTON, August 3.
1t Is said in unusually well informed circles
that direct and decisive action is TO be taken in
the prosecution Of the war; and that a perfect
agreement exists between the principal gen.
erals and the exutive branch of the govern
ment. This is asserted as the certain policy
OF the government, TO be vigorously consum-
mated, and indications seem to confirm the
truth Of the statement.
The National Bank Note Co., who have the
order for the postage stamp currency, say they
will furnish large supplies by the 18th of this
month.
The President to-day pardoned some 90 SOL
ders confined in the penitentiary under SEN

the Others are required to go to their regi-
ments or name Others in the service.

From Fortress Monroe.

FORTRESS MONROE, August l.
The rebels, it is estimated, threw over 500
Shells which lay this morning scattered pro-
fusely over the field, and some lodged in the
masts and spars. All that is known Of the fate
of the rebels is that they fed, and the trees
where they had their batteries presented a
shattered appearance and many were cut COM
pletely down.
We could learn nothing more Of the new
Merrimac. and have heard nothing to contra
dict the statement already published
There was one federal gunboat near the
landing, which opened fire Immediately on the
enemy, but they did not appear to notice it as
they were so intent on shelling our camps.

lB- Col. Charles w. Roberts is the Oldest
Colonel in the Maine regiments. Is he not as
worthy of promotion as Col. Durham? Why
should Col. Roberts be passed over. If the
gallant Second is to be ignored through any
interference of the friends of other men, it will
cause widespread dissatisfaction in the COM
munity. All other considerations except merit
should be banished in making promotions in
the army. No doubt Col Burnham has proved
himself an excellent officer and brave man,
but neither Col. Burnham nor any of his friends
will claim any superiority over Col Roberts in
this respect, and promotions should be in order
of seniority of merit Bangor Wing.
We presume the "fiiends of other men, make
no invidious comparisons when they recon-
mend them. No one questions the bravery or
capacity Of Col. Roberts, but the Wing should

Capture Of Blockade Runners---A Brithish
Steamer chased into Nassau.

New YORK, August 3.
The gunboat Magnolia arrived to-day, hav-
ing the British steamer Memphis in charge as
prize.
A Key West letter reports the capture of
the sloop Elizabeth from Havana. bound to
the Salnes Pass with an assorted cargo, by
the gunboat Hatteras.
The English schooner Orion. bound from
Kingston, Jamaica. to Salines Pass, with drugs
&c, was captured by the Quaker City. She
was formerly called the Mary Ellen, and in
April last run the blockade with 100 bales of
cotton.
Nassau advices state that the gunboat Adri-
ondack chased the British steamer Herald,
Capt. Coxetter, into that port. She had run
the blockade OF Charleston. The Herald was
slightly damaged by shells. The Nassau
Guardian speaks of the matter as a glaring
outrage and states that the British flag was
shot down, but subsequently replaced. Nassau
was greatly excited during the action. The
Advertiser says the Captain of the Adirondack
apologized to the Captain of the British ship
Greyhound.
