|. Fer the benefit and the information Of the cit-
zens throughout the State, and especially along
the southern bcrders, w no may have organized,
may say tha, it Is the desire Of the military au-
thorities that they should keep as cool and quiet
as possible, prevent unnecessary alarm among the
women, and not move until ordered by compe-
tent authority, unless the utmost necessity she ud
demand their services in their own neig ghbor-
hood.
AsI write learn that q committee Of citizens
are here from LancaseI, asking for arms for that
county. The policy, believe, is 10 supply the
border counties first.
At hall past IL O'Clock to- day the regular Cum
berland Valley train arriving here brought several
hundred ladies and gentlemen from Has erstcwn
and Chambersblr2 In conversation with a
highly Intelligent citizen from Hagerstoyn, that
gentleman informed me that he left taat place
late last night; that there were no rebels there
then; that the people tnere were unduly excited,
and that the extr4vag ant stories circulated in
reference to secesh movements there were utterly
false; that the nearest approach Of the enemys
scouts was thirteen miles east OF Hsgerstowa.
One Of the mont respectable and su bstantial cit
izens OF ChambersbuTg also informed me that the
report of tle arreSt OF rebel spy there, with
maps and plans OF the Cumberland Valley In his
possession, was fabrication of excited imagina-
tion.
