The scouts beyond Chambersburg have nothing
to report. Cashtown is said to have been visited
this morning by sixty rebels, who are said to have
spent the preceding night at Tannattsburg.
The rebel leaders, there is reason to believe, ex-
pec,ine to defeat Mcclellan in the next battle,
sent Stuart on his late reconnaissance in force, for
the purpose of obtaining correct knowledge OF
the topography of Pennsylvania, and be thus en-
abled to march large army speedily on Harris
burg first sending two parties of cavalry to cut of
railroad communication. One to cut that of the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad at Mount Union, the other
that of the Baltimore and Ohio, below Frederick
Stuart, having accomplished this reconnaissance,
withdrew Into Virginia 1t is believed i'll official
circles that there may be small parties of strag
glers, who were unable to rejoin the main body
yet prowling among the mountains.
On Saturday morning the rebels destroyed al
the telegraph Instruments batteries and a number
of miles of wire at Chambersburg; but, notwith
standing this, through the energy of the President
of the Atlantic and Ohio Telegraph Company
Colonel John II. Berryville, all repairs were made
and the Chambersburg Office reopened, and com

established Saturday evening.

A PROCLAMATION
By z. B. VANCE, Governor Of North CAROL,

BY L. b. VANCE, Governor Of North Carolina
Whereas Information has reached me that certain
persons unmindfu of the calls of patriotism and for
getu of the duties of good citizens using their in
fuence to prevent obedience to the law Of Congress
known as the Conscript Law, and that Others at
tempting organize open resistance to it's execu-
ton; and whereas such conduct being not only in d..
violation of law but also detrimental in the high
est degree, TO the Of country it becomes my
sacred duty prevent and repress the by all the
means in my power:
Now, therefore, /, ZEBULoS 3. VANCE, Governor Of
ing all such persons desst from such unparoc and
criminal conduct earnestly hoping that all who are
diSnclined to defend their homes themselves either
by reason of age, infrmty cowardice, will cease 10
diSsuade those who willing; and notifying all per-
sons contemplating armed resistance to the law, II
there really be any such misguided and evildspossd
persons in midst, that they will commit the crime
of treason according to the Constitution, aud must not
expect to escape its penalties Whilst thousands upon
thousands of our best and bravest have cheerfuny
obeyed the law, and by their patriotic valor have dV
the enemy back to the Potomac, it would be an in
toerable outrage upon them to permit others to eads
the law, still, to resist it by open violence.
Let no one, therefore, be deceived, the law will be
enforced and appeal to all loyal and patriotic cit-
zens to sustain those who charged with its
ton.
