six hundred and fifty-fve thousand dollars.
AT a special meeting of the Union state CEN
trail committee to-day it was resolved that in
the present emergency, while many of the
delegates to the Union state convention are
engaged in the military and cannot be pres

Pittsburg on the 18th of July, it is deemed
expedient to postpone the convention until
the 9TH OF August.

NEW YORK, June 24.--The Posts Wash
ington dispatch says it is at last fully ascer-
tanned that the main body of Gen Lees army
is in the Shenandoah valley. Ewelrs corps
moved from Culpepper first, and was followed
by Longstreet's, which was succeeded by d.
II. Hills corps. The corps of A. P. Hill did
not go up the valley until Ewell gained his
success at Winchester.
There are many persons who still anticipate
that the rebel army will come through the
gaps and march down on our army, though the
long delay would seem to prevent such
movement now. At one time it might have
been safe, but it is too late.
Information from Maryland Nights says the
rebels are only in small force in the noun
tains, ana have made no attempt to advance
on that post. Harper's Ferry as still nomi-
nally in our possession. The bridges are
fully protected by our guns. The nearest
rebel force was about five miles off at Little
Antietam. The whole line of the Potomac,
up to and beyond Leesburg, is in possession
of the federal troops, large force occupying
that town.
The Baltimore American of yesterday af-
ternoon says the rebels were driven out of
Frederick by a detachment of the regular cav
airy from Washington after a brief skirmish
in the streets, and pursued until they crossed
South Mountain. The enemy did not number
over two hundred. The recruits gathered by
the rebels were left behind in panic.

TREATMENT OF CoLoRED Men IL WASH
INGroN.-A member of the Both Massachusetts
regiment writes to the RoXbury journal as
folows:-
The raising Of colored troops in the district
is slow process. 1t has taken nearly three
months to raise four companies, at which rate
Il whole brigade could be enrolled in some
thing like two years. There is raw material
enough and material raw enough waiting to
be manufactured into soldiers, but the stock
jobbers and wire-pulers can't agree on the d.
vision of the sp0ils, and are lighting over
them, and it is believed that rs soon as the
auction price is fixed for commissions, the en-
terprise will be speedily accomplished. There
are over two thousand applicants for commits
si0ns, but as yet no officers are appointed, for
the reasons suggested. There is good deal
OF prejudice against the enterprise in the dis
trict, and whenever II colored man with Uncle
Sans jacket on passes along the street, he is
chased by the boys and SO abused that he is
obliged to run for his life. Last Sunday one
came into the city to visit his parents, when a
mob collected about the house and waited for
hours for him to come out so they might strip
him of his uniform. The provost marshal
getting wind of it, sent squad of the 18th
boys, who rescued the soldier and arrested the
ringleader of the mob. When the govern
ment gets strong enough TO protect the color
ed soldiers in their rights and privileges, there
are plenty of them who are ready to shoulder
the musket. But it is asking too much OF
them to enlist to fight friends and foes both.

Rumors about the Alabama.

NEW YORK, June 24.-Steamer Eagle has
arrived, from Havana the goth via Porto
Rico. Rumors had reached Havana, said to
have been brought by the British mail
steamer from st. Thomas to Porto Rico,
that the pirate Alabama was in Santa Cruz,
and that the Vanderbilt got up steam and went
to attack her. Heavy firing had been heard in
the direction of Santa Cruz, but nothing was
known about it. Some infer that the Alaba-
ma had been captured, and others that the
Vanderbilt was destroyed. The English mail
steamer Trent, from st. Thomas, was due at
Havana the 2lst, when the facts would be as
certained.
The Spanish government had granted per-
mission to tear down the walls of Havana
The heat at Havana was very great, but there
was no yellow fever as yet. The rebel steam
er Alice Vivian had arrived from Mobile with
cotton.

SUPERIOR Court AT FITCHBURG.-In the
action of Solomon f. Towne VS.. the Fitch
burg Mutual Fire Insurance Company, which
occupied the most of last week, the jury re-
turned verdict on Tuesday evening in favor
of the defendants. The judge decided that
the failure by the plaintiff in his original APP
plication for insurance to disclose a prior
mortgage on the insured premises, which had
been since paid rendered the policy wholly
void, although the plaintiff acted in good faith,
and was ignorant at the time that the mort
gage was in existence, and that therefore the
plaintiff could not maintain his action. Upon
this question the case will be taken up to the
supreme court. The principal question in dis
pute was whether the fire was caused by the
plaintiffs own act, and upon this issue the
jury stated, in reply 20 an inquiry by the
judge, that they found the fire was not set by
him or by his procurement. Counsel for
plaintiff, w. w. Rice and L. L. Nelson of
Worcester; for the defendants, Wood & Tor
rey of Fitchburg, P. c. Bacon of Worcester.
