There was fearful panic among some
Of the Georgia chiValry the other day.
The Mobile AdVsiisr of the 25th ult,
relates il thus 4u4.
TnE RECENT PANIC IN AUGUsrA.-The
citizens of Augusta were all brought up
standing with arms in their hands last
week in consequence Of report reach
ing there TO the effect that Yankee raid
had penetrated the State and were in
Lincoln county making their way TO Au-
gusta. The source or cause of the pam
ic is thus explained by correspondent
of the Chronicle and Sentinel:
'-It appears that some ten or twelve
lAdies--all white women are ladies--in
Hart or Madison counties, for thp sake of
frolic or perhaps for a moro serious
cause, undertook TO play soldiers, or
'Nancy Harts," and 80 hadput on mems
clothes-mounted the imminent deadly
breeohes," as Shakespeare says--and with
shouldered corn stalks, had invaded an
old gentlemah's plantation. The old
fellow, who was no doubt bachelor, Or
he would have bad more discrimination,
at sight of the Amazonian oolors atAm-
peded with his negroes aud spread the
alarm that ten thousand Yankees were
coming"

VIcKsBURG, July 9.-Yesterday and to-day
all has been remarkable quiet and good feel
ing prevails. The weather is fearfully warm
Nineteen general officers have been paroled
Two or three days must elapse before the
prisoners are sent to their destination. which
is reported to be Talladega, Ala. Many of
them are anxious not to be paroled, but wish
to take the oath of allegiance, quit the rebel
service, and be sent north. Several women
and children have been killed or injured by
the siege. Hundreds of houses occupied by
the sick and wounded have been constantly
exposed to shells. About 2500 persons have
been killed inside the works since the siege
began. The labor performed on the fortifica-
tons on both sides has been prodigious. The
weight of our artillery knocked most their
works into undistinguishahle heaps.
About l20 women and children were in the
city during the bombardment, who have for
sometime been obliged to live in caves, of
which there are several hundred. Citizens
have not been allowed to draw from the army
supplies, except in cases of desttuton. The
prices Of food have been enormous. Five
dollars per pound has been charged for flour,
and one dollar per pound for mule meat.
The latest advices from the interior state
that Gen. Johnston is rapidly retreating, and
that Gen. Sherman is in hot pursuit. Rein
tOrcements are moving to Gen. Sherman. An
offer of assistance has been dispatched to
Gen. Banks, and as the condition of the Port
Hudson garrison will be similar to that of
Nicksburg week hence its fall may be
announced at any hour. The general opinion
here, in the rebel army and our own, is that
the rebellion at the southwest is at an end,
and reduced to insignificant proportions.
HELENA, ARK, July Further particu-
lars of the late battle show that the repulse
was very decided and disastrous to the enc
my. 1t is thought that their loss will amount
to 1000 killed. and ours to 230. We have tax
en- 800 prisoners and paroled 230. There are
other rebel wounded at Newton, seven miles
out. The rebels left two pieces of artillery

The drafting in this congressional district
began on Saturday. Worcester came first

commissioner, and the names were drawn
forth one at a time, by Mr.. S. S. Leonard,
whose blindness made him an excellent man
for the purpose. Mr.. Leonard handed the
slips to the provost marshal, who united the
string with which it was bound, and read
out the names and characteristics of the con-
script; for example -
"John Smith, 90, white, blacksmith, married
Massachusetts"
The name was then handed to a clerk
who recorded it. When any well known
name was drawn, it was greeted with APP

at ten o'clock A. NJ, and with an hour and
quarters intermission for dinner, was con-

the rebels too strong on Thursday, waited for

DANIEL HENsHAw, ESQ, Il gentleman well
known by the older inhabitants of this city,

ticed law in the town of Winchester, and in

Mrs. CAGES LECTURE THIS EVENING AT
WAsHBURN HALL.-To those vino heard Mrs.
G. when she spoke here last week the above
announcement is enough. They know how
thoroughly she has considered the "contra-
band" question; what unusual opportunities
she has had how well she can state conclu-
sions, and the facts on which they are based.
But to the many others in our city and vicin-
ity who are interested in the people of the Sea
Islands, but who have not heard her, we would
say, go tonight to Washburn Hail. Mrs. G.
has been at Paris Island several months, dur.
ing which herselfand other members of her
family have lived in the midst of that poor
and sorely tried community. Of course her
heart is in her work, and she would have all
its friends know its true character, that they
may work intelligently as well as zealously in
its behalf A small charge of ten cents will
be made at the door to cover expenses.

Morgan's Raid in Indiana.

INDTANAPoLIs, Ind, July Morgan's
forces reached Vienna, on the Jacksonville
railroad, at ! o'clock this A. NJ. Morgan
burned the railroad bridge at Vienna, and is
now moving in the direction of Madison, with
the intention, it is supposed, of crossing the
river at Gussy Flat Prisoners who have es-
capped from Basil Dukes command at Vienna,
say that the rebels are moving in great haste,
and they think from what they could learn of
the raid it is Morgans intention to pass
through Indiana and join Lees forces in Vir~
glnia.
CINCINNATI, July l2.,-NTorgan's raid, to-
night, reached within miles of the Ohio line.
Some bridges on the Ohio & Mississippi rail-
road, between Cochran and Mount Vernon,
were destroyed to-day. The rebels also APP
preached the indianapolis & Cincinnati rail-
road, near, SummanS, where they were met
by a regiment of militia and were driven
back. This, perhaps, was only a small body.
The main force appears to be making for Au-
rora and Lawrenceburg.

BALTIMORE, July IA special to the
American, dated headquarters, Saturday
night says The position Of the two armies
is essentially unchanged There has been no
fighting to-day. The enemy changed their
picket line this morning, givingrise to the re-
port that they had abandoned Funkstown,
which was magnified into full retreat and
escape over the river. They were still in the
same position and in full force. Our pickets
are close to Funkstown and all along in i'm
mediate proximity to the rebels. General
Meade has his forces all in position aud eve
rything seems ready either to receive or de-
liver battle. A battle will probably not take
place until Monday. The army is in first rate
spirits and moved into position with cheers.
The Maryland brigade is at the front eager to
show their pluck. Our cavalry operations
continue very active, and the rebels are cir
cumScrbed to small extent of country for
food and forage.

The Surrender of ViCkSbUrg.
DISPATCH FROM ADMIRAL PORTER

FLAGSHIP BLACK HAWK, Vicksburg, July
40 Hon. Gideon HeIleS, Secretary Of the
Nary Il have the honor to inform you that
Vicksburg has surrendered at last to the
United States forces, after a desperate but
vain resistance. That she has not done so
sooner has not been for want of ability on the
part of our military commanders, but from
the magnitude of the defences which were in
tended to repulse any force the government
could possibly send there. What bearing
this will have upon the rebellion remains yet
to be seen, but the magnitude of the success
must go far toward crushing out this rebellion
and once more establish the commerce OF the
states bordering on this river.
History has seldom had an opportunity OF
recording so desperate a defence; on one side
with so much courage and ability, and perse-
verance and endurance on the other. If ever
an army was entitled to the gratitude OF ma
ton, it Is the army of the Tennessee and its
gallant leaders. The navy has necessarily
performed a less conspicuous part in the cap
ture of Vicksburg than the army. Still, it
has been employed in manner highly credit
able to all concerned. Gunboats have been

good music, for the Allen brothers, and
Messrs. Burt, Stearns, and Thayer, are in the
