the latest and most reliable:
BURNSIDE AFTER THE REBELS.
We learn that Col Piper, of our army,
who has just arrived here passed through
the pieLeis Of the rebel army, and IL that
Gen. Burnside's army was on their trail;
Gen. y. had 10000 troops in his com
mand. Gen. Mcclellan is in the field
with another large force, also en- route
after the rebel army, and il is to be hoped
that he will be able to cut them Off be-
fore they can retrace their steps A
large force is gathering in Pennsylvania
by Gov. Curtin, TO meet the invaders il
they shall attempt to come into that State,
and no doubt the troops now in New
York, ready TO start, will be sent in the
same direction.
Jackson, with all his dash and strate-
gy, will find, we hope, before the end of
this week, that his race is rum for we do
not see how it Is possible that he can cs-
cape the powerful forces that are now on
his track. Let us have patience and be
| firm. Our authorities are all thoroughly
aroused now, and full cooperation IS
taking place.

confirms the above. lie says that Seces-

of this city, at night, and return by next
morning, and report that General Fitz-
hugh Lee is in command of the rebel
forces, and that his forces were at Pop
lar Springs, opposite Woodbine Station,
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The above is no doubt TO be relied on,
"a il comes from gentleman who con.
versed with person who had been in
company with Lee.
SUPPOSED DESERTEBs.
i The same gentleman informs MS that
.he saw about 100 of the l04th Pennsyl-
yania Zouaves on their way to Baltimore
who are probably deserters-they, how
ever say that they had been discharged
by their Colonel because they complained
of not having received the bounty money
promised them. They were in their
uniforms and making for Baltimore,
no DEMONSTRATIONS BY TIE REBELS.
A dispatch was received this morning
from the operator at Plain No. 4, Baltimor,

timore, stating that everything in tina
neighbOrhood was quiet, and that iher,
had been no demonstrations of any kind
