with one hundred men of his regiment,
started from Portsmouth on q raiding
expedition into Princess Ann county.
AS he advanced he picked up all the
horses and mules that he found upon
the route, and mounted his men. He
made his way direct to the coast, and
when at Land Bridge, which is about
fifteen miles below Cape Henry, he de.
stroyed seven salt works. Proceeding
five miles below on the coast he do.
stroyed another. Ten miles further
south ten moro salt works were leveled
to the ground, and over one thousand
bushels of salt destroyed After this
had been accomplished the expedition
visited Wales Neck, and there found a
large lot of pans and lumber, intended
to be used in the construction of other
salt works. The lumber was burned,
as were some five hundred cords of fire.
wood that was intended for fuel. The
pans were rendered useless. Carrituck
Sound was then struck, where expedi.
ton halted all night on Wednesday
having marched nearly forty miles day
up to that time. The Major and bs
men wended their way slowly back
reaching Portsmouth yesterday after.

The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
sDAY, .............. 80, 1868

We are informed by leading men
here, in business which requires large
number Of hands, that many Canadi-
aus and other Foreigners are leaving for
fear that they will DO drafted under the
CONSUMPTION which is soon to take place.
This fear is entirely groundless and
pains should be taken to make tho fact
known, as in this section we are argaly
dependent upon this class Of employees,
and employers arc often embarrassed
by the sudden departure of men whom
they considered under permanent en-.
gagement.
Citizens, and those who have declared
their intentions TO become citizens, are
tho only persons who como under
tho operation of tho law. and'foreigncrs
who have never taken out their first pa.
pers nor made the declaration mention.
ed, no matter how long or how short
may be the period Of their residence,
are no more liable to be forced into tho
army because they are here, than they
would be if they were in Canada, Eng
land or Siberia. If they 500 fit to vol
unteer, as many of them have done,
that act makes them soldiers and sub.
ject to the rules of the service, but
there has as yet been no law passed,
nor any regulation proposed or adopted
by which they can be compelled, against
their will, to enter the service.
1t is the hcighth of folly for any par.
ties to cnicavor to shirk the draft, but
it is downright stupidity for these men
to be scared by Misrepresentation into
throwing up profitable situations, where
they would be as safe from conscriptior
as they would be as if they had never
heard OF this country. Foreigners can
depend upon it that this matter is JUS
as we state, aud if they will hereafter
exercise little common sense, act intel
ligcntly, show more reason and less
cowardicc, they will mako less trouble
FOR others, and savo themselves a grca
deal Of unnecessary uneasiness.

THE REBEL INVASION.
New York, June 3

NEW YORK, June 81.
A special to the New York Times,
Harrisburg, June 90. says: Throughout
the day our forces have held a position
beyond Harrisburg, Of Notifications in
anticipation Of the enemy's ADVANCE

tho rebels aud our own pickets. The
opinion is gaining credence that the

ported that they have pontoon twelve
this side Of Columbia. This, however,
is somewhat doubted
A gentleman just escaped from the
rebel lines at Cbambersburg, reports
the rebel column moving eastward to
the number of thirty seven thousand,
accompanied by l04 pieces of artillery.
General Lee with his staff officers were
in Chambcrsburg last Saturday.
Thirty.three prisoners captured at
Mount Union were brought into town
this morning.
Another order is issued by the rebel
General Ewell, dated June 20, relative
to restrictions enioined upon his army
and the citizens of this county, through
which the rebels pass. He urges that
ready acquiesence with demands Of mil.
itary authorities will serve greatly to
lessen the rigors of war.
It's con6dentally believed this morn
ing that the enemy would commence an
attack to-day, 10 all probability to NOR
row or next day will develop his in.
tended movements. Possibly Lee may
contemplate the capture OF Baltimore,
and consider Harrisburg as of scconda'
ry importance.

THE BANcRoFT.-It is a matter of
constant congratulation on the part Of
tho people of Saginaw Valley, that we
have hotel worthy the locality, and
satisfactory to both citizens and outsid.

the flattering assurance OF tho Free Press,
that it was "folly," it assumed, at pc.

far as it goes, seems to be satisfactory
