Kentucky Again Invaded

$1,000 Rebels reported Marching on
Lerin9tOn-Federal Detachment de-
teated at Richmond.
CINCINNATI. July 2S-A special to the
Commercial from Lexington 2Sth, says
the rebels this morning attacked our
forces at Richmond, consisting of small
detachment under Col Sanders.
After an hours severe fighting our
troops were compelled to fall back to the
Kentucky river badly cut up.
The rebel force is estimated at $500,
with 6 guns
They are supposed to be the advance
of Braggs army.
At the latest advices our troops had
failed back to within 4 miles of Lexing-
ton the enemy closely following.
Martial law is proclaimed at Lexing-
ton.
All able bodied citizens between Is
and 45 are ordered to report for duty.
1t is thought tie city can be held
against the rebels.
Rebel citizens report the rebel force at
over $4,000, moving in northerly di-
rection via Crab Orchard.

Especial to the Philadelphia Enquirer.
From Lees Army.


Lees Army cut an t,oO-E,ceVs corps
Cat off and an C Predicament
New YoRH, July 2S.-A dispatch from
Harper's Ferry to the Philadelphia En-
quirer says the result of the engagement
of Thursday last, al. Front Royal, and re-
ported here are highly encouraging.
The intention was to cut Lees Army
in two, and it succeeded to the extent
that EwelTs corps is reported to tie en-
tirely cut off from communication with
Lee, and its capture or dispersion is al
most certain.
The z. r. between this point and Mar
tinsburg is uninjured, except small
bridge over the Opequon Creek, which
was destroyed by the Rebels, West of
Martinsburg.
The road is supposed to be badly in
jured, the rails torn up for consider
able distance beyond, and burned &c
The rebels having evacuated Martins
burg, the road will soon be in running
order to this point.
1t was reported that Winchester is now
occupied by only small force of White s
Cavalry, and the town will doubtless be
occupied by our forces III few days.
The citizens Who came in to day from
near Martinsburg, report no armed Reb-
els in their neighburhood, except few
Bushwhackers.
The Post states, from good authority,
that the draft. will not commence this
week, but the probability is that it will
only be deferred short time, and that
it will be interfered with by the State Au-
thorities, as some of the sympathizers
with the Rioters hope, is altogether I'M
true

A Vicksburg Prisoner violates his
Parole.

OswEGo, July 8@h.-One hundred and
twenty-four rebels recently captured in
Virginia, arrived here to-day. Among
them are eight officers, one of whom, a
Captain, was captured at Vicksburg and
paroled, but who has violated his word,
and was again found in the service arm
ed and equipped Some of these pris-
oners are anxious to take the oath of al
legiance, and others to be exchanged.
Two large city prisons were to be imme-
diately constructed, one at Point Look
out, Maryland, and the other at Rock
Island, Illinois.

WASHINGTON, July 2S-Information
received to-day shows that Lees army,
under Longstreet, Hill and Ewell, passed
through Chester Thursday and Friday,
and.are now at and south of Culpepper
Buford's cavalry opposed them but had
to fall back. They hung on their rear,
however, capturing prisoners and cattle.
1t was generally thought Lee was making
all possible haste to Richmond. But Bu-
ford thinks the rebels intend making a
stand on the south side of the Rapidan
river.
Rebel prisoners say our cavalry have
done more to defeat Lees plans than
any other arm; also that great despon-
dency prevails in the South and in the
army, in consequence of the recent de-
feats and the failure of Lees plans,
while the detection of>Joe johnson, and
his refusal to obey the orders of jeff
Davis, will necessitate the reconstruction
of the army of the southwest.

New York, July 2S.-The Heralds
Washington sp c al says yesterday the
train from Warrenton to Alexandria,
conveying/about 800 troops, was fired
into by guerrillas when within two miles
of Manassas No damage done.
The troops secuted the woods in the
vicinity, but were unable to find the as
sailants. Proceeding short distance
further the train was again fred into
without injury, and the soldiers we're
again unable to discover the perpetrators
and the train proceeded without further
interruption.
1t is reported here to day that some 40
of Ashby's guerrillas were captured last
night, but on inquiry it proves to be I'M
founded. One scouting party captured
six and another single guerrilla, which
appears to be all that has been done in
that line for the last forty-eight hours.
The Times dispatch from Headquar-
ters Army of Potomac, July 18th and
10Th, P. NJ, says the position of the rebel
army is as follows:
Friday morning at o'clock the ad-
vance of Hills and Longstreets corps
reached Culpepper Their columns were
well closed up and their entire force
must be concentrated there before this
time. Of this retrograde movement
there can be no question. Ewelrs corps
is understood here to be still occupy
ing Shenandoah valley, where tits guard
ing fords on the Shenandoah and Rea 8
rivers. This fact is supposed to explain
the recent alarm about the alleged
movements indicating that Lee was not
retreating, and was preparing to return
to Maryland

sioner of Internal Revenue has decided
