PHILADELPHIA, May 8. The following state
ment is derived from gentleman who left the
Rappahannock Oh Saturday
1t is already known that our troops have
crossed oyer with less opposition than was an
tcipated The enemy massed considerable
force on their front on Thursday, and at night
there was some artillery practice between our
own and the rebel guns at long range. Soon as
the rebels learned on Wednesday that our forces
had crossed, they commenced moving troops
out to Intercept our advance, and continued
it all night and the next day. Trains have
been running constantly with troops from Rich
mond, and the enemy had all their available
forces around fredericksburg.
The latest news from Chancellorville is that
Gen. StOneman had cut the railroad. This is
stated on the assertion of gentleman connected
with the civil department of the Government,
who arrived at Washington Saturday morning.
There is no, doubt of the fact that our army
was at last accounts in a cheerful and hopeful
condition, and Gen. Hooker, 1t is understood
had issued an address paying high compliment
to the army for their conduct thus far in this
| important movement.
New YORK, May 3. The correspondent of thu
Philadelphia Press states that it is reported
that Fredericksburg is now occupied by a strong
! Union force under Gen. Patrick, and that thu
railaoad toward Richmond is being rapidly re-
paired also that Front Royal is occupied an(

Stoneman cavalry had advanced to Culpepper
and all railroad trains were running to tina

tors Wiley and Carlisle are there, fugitive

rebel sympathizers in Morgantown received thu
rebels with great kindness, which the rebels re-
paid by stealing all their cattle, horses and food
The Baltimore correspondent of the Herald
states that the rebel force is still north of thu
railroad, with 20 pieces of artillery, probably
near Brownsville, Pa. lie says Gen. Schencl
has utterly failed to expel the rebels up to May

The same correspondent states that the rebels

he has no doubt that large portion of Leei

small force behind to hold Hooker in check.

To All Who Use a Pen.
Ia GOOD GOLD PEN

Is always ready and reliable, and, if adapted TO
the hand, makes writing pleasure, not q task.
The beginner makes more rapid progress with
Gold Pen than with any other, because the
same pressure always produces the same result /;
and the proficient is better satisfied with his la

and the ease by which il is produced.
IN MAKING NEW PENS
the subscriber uses no solder. The gold at the
point Is brought TO a state Of fusion, when the
point sinks into it, and the two become rs one
metal, entirely impervious to the action Of the
acids in inks. This can be done in making new
pens, because the gold is more than three tines
as thick a il Is after the pen Is rolled to the prop
er ihinncss OF the finished state.
WHEN PExs ARE REPoiNrED
q solder must be used which will melt sooner
than the gold OF which the pen is made, other
wise the points will cu'l into q gobular FORM
BY this process the temper is taken out Of the nib
the elasticity destroyed, and the pen subjected 10
the sure process OF corrosion. On these accounts,
and knowing from long experience that repoint-
ed pens can rarely give satisfaction the subsoib-
er must positively Refuse 10 Repoint Gold Pens.

Ixp1AN TRoUBLEs.-For some time
past, the Indians around Fort Larned
several thousand in number-have
been exceedingly bold. and have on sew
era! occasions exhibited bad intentions.
We learn that Col. Leavenworth, owing
TO the small force at that point. has sew
eral times been compelled to pacify them
BY turning out to them hard bread. cof-
fee. sugar, DC. This has but encour-
aged them. The guard h:ve had con-
siderable trouble in keeping hem Out
of the Post. SO emboldened have they
become. Last Monday the guard MAS
compelled to shoot one Of them. from
the effects Of which he soon after died.
Things do not look very pleasant on
the plains, to cay the least, and this act
may be bat the commencement Of open
hostiIities. Fort Larned is not in any
particular danger. but there is long
road, over which . vast trade passes, sub
ject 70 their plundering and murderous
propensities. There ought to b al
least full regiment of cavalry station
ed there, until these fellows are snubb-
ed.-Junetion Union.

cts. Mcbride and Ridcliff, of notori-

Mayor Anthony does not like martial
law in Leavenworih. He thinks he is

He certainly can have no sympathy with
the only class against whom the Gener-
proposes to operate?
The recent rains appear to have been
general over the State.
The citizens of Leavenworth have
