ING dates Of the Goth inst. The late hour al
which they come to hand prevent US giving
more than a summary Of their contents:
MEADE's ARMY.
The Herald of the Goth says:
There is nothing important from the army
of the Potomac. 1t is believed that the present
movements Of Gen. Meade's army, although
they cannot he now revealed, will certainly
cyentrlu,c in the destruction OF the enemy.
Cen. Lees army has not made as much GROUND
in their rctrca; as was supposed. The main
body is now in the vicinity of Winchester, anu
uuiic = large number at Bunker Hill. The
fact that he should have been permitted to cS
cape across the Potomac is the cause OF much
discomfort in Washington. The President
avows himself profoundly depressed ut Ills
escape.

Churches almost universally devoted their dis
courses from the pul pit to references To the re-
cent sad scenes Of violence and bioodshed.-
They exhorted their tl0cks 10 peace, order and
the Christian spirit Of iorbearance.
Meantime the authorities are taking such
measures as will render the recurrence OF the
scenes Of the past few days highly lmproba'
bic. Five more militia regiments arrived
from the scat Of war yesterday, their term OF
service having expired and we believe that
four or five more arc expected to-day.

There is il large addition to the negro popu-
lation in the Eastern cities, the immigrants
being mostly from New York and Brooklyn.
We understand that in view Of the approach'
ing draft that there is considerable excitement
in New Hampshire, especially in the laIse
manufacturing towns, where the foreign clc-
mcnt is in the majority. Messengers have
been sent to the United States Arsenal N
WatertOwn for cannon and ammunition, which
have been supplied.
