NEWS OF THE DAY.
THE WAR.


I'VE print on the first page large and accurate
map of Northern Virginia and Maryland, showing
all the localities now occupied by the rival armies.
1t has been very carefully drawn from the large
official maps of those States, and is far more compre
hsnsve and correct than any newspaper map yet
published.
We still gather into paragraph the more sig
nifcant rumors-there are precious few tacts-abOut
the invasion of the North, via Maryland. First, and
we deem it sufficiently important to quote entire,
is the Associated Press statement, direct from
Philadelphia, averlng that " there many rumors
in town, mainly from Gen. McClellans army, all Of
which have favorable indication" Which ia good
Next we learn, by special permission Of the Superin-
tenden of telegraphic dispatches, of course, which
stamps the information with the awful seal Of au
sborty that &" the bridge at Gunners Run is washed
away" Which is much.-Apd then, on the same
authority we are hastily informed that the President
has recognized ]. De Fremery as Nederlandische
Consul for California. Which is good for
Fremery.-After which, we find dispatch
from Gauleys Bridge, Va, which says that
Jenkinss whole force of guerrillas was met and
routed by six companies Of the ID Virginia Cavalry;
our loss one killed. dead; enemys loss, not known.
Where aud when this highly important battle took
place the lightning deigns not to inform US but
we have the logical consolation Of knowing that 1t
occurred somewhere and happened at particular
time. Which is consoling.--We cannot create order
out of the chaos of dispatches per Associated Press
received late Thursday night and early on Friday
morning. They represent that the Rebels have
broken camp at Frederick, and are marching upon
Hagerstown with 300 pieces Of cannon some OF
which are very huge. They are led by Lee, Jack
SOD, Howell Cobb, et al. This is cheerful.-But it
il followed by the ominous Later in
which telegraph and other descriptive writers
delight. Later " tells that Jackson is 10
Hagerstown, preparing to oblterate Pennsylvania;
all the Rebels at Frederick had evacuated Gov.
Curtin had told the President everythinghe knew,
promptly; active measures were, &C., &C., and
militia should get ammunition fitted TO their guns.

told from truthful Philadelphia that newspaper Of
the Paeozoic period had earned-as if 1t were posi-
BILE for that fossil TO learn anythpg-that Gen.
Mcclellan had advanced his headquarters " some
miles" That meat for joy.-Next we have an
exultemus over the fact Tor the assumpion that the
bridges IN the Pennsylvania Northern Railroad were
still bridges and were strongly guarded. Which is
consong.-Apd, moreover, it told to us that all

Baltimore mssive telling Of a Rebel rush upon
Westminster IA small village few miles west Of the
celebrated Relay House,. They charged through
the village, firing unarmed citizens. Some rail-
way trains intercepted, and trouble made gen.

he made from fifteen to sixty thousand; this had
lost bis cattle; was not paid for them; the Rebels
ate them. Our correspondent gesses that the Rebels
will rush back into Virginia after stealing all the
provisions in their reach. Which seems probable.-
At 12I o'clock this morning an Associated Press dis
patch from Baltimore, confirming the abandonment
by the Rebels of Westmnster-they fell back to-
ward Hagerstown; tbep were $50 in number, partly
of Stuart's cavalry and bad some artillery. They
told the people OF the village to be easy, that they
would interfere with none who were not IN military
service. Very few men welcomed them, but many
women were loud and bold in treason. They stole
all the stamps in the Post-Ofhce, and opened por-
ton of the letters; carried off the enlistment
rolls; arrested and paroled the Provost-Marshal;
protested great desire for peace; wanted
to be friends with the people; said moth
ing about political sentiments; had plenty of
Confederate money, and some bank notes; bought
what they wanted, and their commander boosted
that he rode a horse that belonged to Gen. Pope;
they destroyed small railroad bridge and said they
were sorry they did it; received several recruits
taking only those who well armed; picked up
q dozen deserters from Pennsylvania regiment;
they were comfortably clad and men and horses
were in good condition. And that ia all, No 10 |
