! Hagerstown dispatch of the I'LL

A Hagcrstown dispatch of the 18th
says A fight commenced near Sharps-
burg yesterday at daybreak, aud con-
tinued till six o'clock in the evening,
when Longstreet's Division evinced
confusion and our army drove them a
lew miles. The engagement was
brought on by Fitzpatrick, who finding
the rebels on Thursday too strong,
waited for an infantry battle, which
was fought by only a portion of our
army. The rebels fought steadily at
first, but wildly at last. till their am.
munition was expended.
Our cavalry and artillery destroyed
a pontoon bridge to the CONSERVATION
Of the rebels, as they we're about to
cross. a4 - n
The rebels evacuated Hagerstown
at midnight on the 10th inst. Lee,
Longstreet and EweIl were the last
rebel officers to leave. They retreat
ed to Williamsport where they hope
to make another stand.
Information brought by q person
who has been in the rebel lines at
Fnnkstown is that the rebels were
tearing houses to pieces to construct
pontoons. The rebel soldiers express
little hope of crossing the Potomac.
They were anxious about their sup
plies, not having seen their trains for
FIVE days, and were disheartened
A Harrisburg special states that
the Antietam river is much swollen,
which probably has delayed Meade in
attacking the rebels. Our army is
more concentrated and stronger than
when at Gettysburg.
A despatch. dated at Antietam
Bridge, near Williamsport road, July
18th, says Yesterday the army be-
gan to take position and drove the en-.
emy's cavalry near Funkstown. Lee
is strongly entrenched and has a
strong natural position. He is said
to have $4,000 effective men and $50
pieces of artillery.
Gen. Meade says to meet and con-
qner an army Of SO, 900 veteran troops,
is serious undertaking the result
being determined not by human might
alone. ..
A vigorous cavalry and artillery
fight took place on the 10th, over the
Antietam Creek, preparatory to tho
great expected conflict. The cavalry
and artillery of Buford, aided by Xii
patrick on the left flank Of the enemy.

beyond Beaver Greek.
The utmost activity prevails in the
Army Of the Potomac. A deserter
who came into our lines, says Lee has
a single bridge across the Potomac
near Williamsport, aud has succeeded
in getting over ammunition and cup.
plies, although he could not move his
army over with safety or expedition.
Lee is still hopeful of conquering us,
and thinks it was draw thing at Get.
tysburg. Lee is evidently driven to
the wall, and will fight his men to the
end. fs..a.a s.s
News from Williamsport shows that

have got over.
Rumors are rife that Beauregard
has passed down the Shenandoah
Valley with 10000 men to reinforce
Lee.

Invasion of Indiana.

John Morgan with his entire force
is at Brandensburg, on the Ohio River,
he seized two boats and crossed about
400 of his men into Indiana, who are
said to be marching on Coryden, Har-
rison county. "A skirmish had taken
place between them and q small force
Of home guards, in which The latter
were defeated with a loss Of several
killed. The militia has been called
out and preparations made to vel
come them with bloody hands to hos
pitable graves" The citizens of In
dianapolis are meeting in the various
wards organizing companies Of home
guards.
An Indianapolis despatch Of later
date than the above says Morgan's
forces, artillery, cavalry and infantry,
numbering from six to to eight thous.
and, have crossed into Indiana and
captured Corydon. Our forces are
falling back. The rebels are supposed
to be marching on to New Albany
and Jacksonville, where there are
large quantities Of supplies stored.
Troops are being organized through
out the State and sent forward as rap
idly az possible Business is entirely
suspended. and the citizens are rapid.
ly forming companies for self-defence
One regiment was raised since las,
night. 1t is reported that two citizens
were killed at Corydon when tho reb
els entered the town. ,,4
A Cincinnati paper says: :
The Indiana militia arc pouring out
from all parts of the State, and there
are already troops enough to make
thorough work with the rebels, If the
latter can be caught. IfMorgan sue
cecds in getting his men, or any por-
tion Of them out Of Indiana, he will be
a great deal more fortunate in running
than he has ever been in Fighting. His
movement is bold one, but If it does
not prove disastrous to the invaders,
there will be ground for disappoint-
mcnt. He is not dealing with phleg-
matte German farmers and burghers OF
ancient villages, but proud and war;
like people, who, whatever their po-
litical differences, will allow no out.
side interference in their domestic con.
Germs, and will rcpel with hot indigna.
ton any outside meddling.
Doubtless Morgan will tramp around
lively enough for fewdays-plunder
and burn few towns, perhaps, inter-
rupt business, and possibly seize New
Albany, and whatever military stores
there may be there. The effect Of his
presence, however, has been to arouse
the State. The people are rising en-
masse. Fifty thousand militia, it is
computed, were put under arms within
twcnty-four hours, marching to the
border. Michigan has sent infantry
and artillery. Ohio was not slow in re-
spending, and If John Morgan's army
can succeed in rc-crossing the Ohio, it
will be through some lucky accident
Of fortune. General Burnside has
large force in Morgan's rear, and
another in his front.
