FROM BALTIlTORE.

BALTIMORE, Sept. y.
A gentleman who lefs Frederick yester-
day afternoon, says that on Wednesday af-
ternOOn, heavy firing was heard in the di-
rectiOn of Harper's Ferry. Yesterday
the SecessionistS seemedito be very much
troubled by the news from that quarter.
which was, in effect, that General Loring
had crossed the Potomac at WiIliamsporf,
and marched down to Harper's Ferry.
where he attempted to form with view to
attack Miles force. Miles opened mask
ed battery upon the rebels, and they were
rePulsed with great slaughter. 1t was al
so reported that we took many prisoners.
Before our informant left, Frederick had
been nearly evacuated by the rebels. They
commenced moving off Tuesday night
About 10000 men passed through, and 9TH
er portions went around it. They moved
in retreating order, with trains in advance.
Our informant has no doubt, whatever,
that we occupied Frederick to-day. He
thinks the rebels are not bound for Penn
sylyania, but have been driven to enter
Maryland to get supplies.
he confirms all previous accounts of the
utter wretchedness and destitution of the
rebel hordes

New Orleans Safe.

The troops from Baton Rouge, some
10000 strong, arrived here quietly, and at
once, without noise or parade, proceeded to
their places on the lines and there are
now formed series Of magnificent encamp-
ments, which hold soldiers who defy the
approach Of the enemy. These events and
consummatioRs have called forth two or
three reviews from the Commanding Gene
raj, which resulted satisfactorily to all
concerned. Il is now Unquestionably true
that General Buffers force can hold the
city against the attack Of 1000 men; in
fact, it seems to me that any attempt to
take New Orleans on the part Of the Con-
federates, would be only to provoke its de-
struction by our own forces, for such un-
quesiOnably would be the result if any
apparent success was gained by the enc
