Incidents Of the late Rebel Raid of
the Mysterious and Invisible 900.

The Vincennes Gazette, of Saturday
last, furnishes the following incidents
OF the last raid into Indiana:
A Coon "GoAK" Deputy Provost
Marshal Canaan, who has Just returned
from the late seat of war in Indiana, re-
lates to US the following rich incident:
Jones, a well-to-do farmer of Dubois
County, and strong sympathizer with
rebels, and great blower about the Con-
stitution, ETC., was seated on his fine
Morgan, on his way to town, when a
short turn in the road brought him face
to face with the band of guerrillas, rid
ing leisurely, two abreast The two fore
most divided, and, riding one on each
side of the demoralized Jones, ordered
him to dismount Jones hesitated, but
seeing that delays were dangerous and
some times fatal in such cases, he quiet
ly dropped to the ground, stammering
d" What do you ac-o-n-tF This
horse" said the "reb;" he belongs to
our master, JET. Davis, and he sent US
after him" B-bbut," replied the SYM
patbizer, 81 thought you only took
Union mems horses. I am friend to
the Contederacy, and voted for John
Law, for Congress. Besides, my suffer
fering southern brethren have always
mad my warmest sympathies. " Can't
see itf' said secesh, " we are not respec-
tors of persons, but confiscate fine
horses wherever we find them" "But
am friend, not foe" retorled Jones.
Damn such friends, and the secesh
gave Jones blow which sent him reel
ing to the hospitable bosom of mother
earth, while the unthankful rebel mount
ed the noble steed, and the cavalcade
pursued the even tenor of their way.
SEQUEL-In his excitement, Jones for
got to give the sign, and hence the rebel
! couldn't see iti
FINALE.-Jones swears that sympathi-
zings played out In fact, he has been
completely metamorphosed, and says that
| the loss of his horse was the recovery of
his loyalty. He now rejoices that his
eyes have been opened, and that he now
sees the marvellous light of truth.

Additional News from Port Hudson

NEW YORK, June 30-Passengers by
the Columbia state that the lombard
ment has as yet made little impression
on the Port Hudson works. The eau
tious movements of Gen. Banks indicate
that he relied less for ultimate success
on his troops than on the lack of sup
plies in the garrison.
The position of our army is such that
the gunboats cannot cooperate, and all
firing by them has ceased
There is said to be a large army under
Magruder and Breckenridge in the rear
of Gen. Banks, whose object seems to be
to surround him or cut off his supplies.
Magruder's force is estimated at 10000
and Breckinridge's at 1900.
Guerrillas infest the river, and a large
quantity of supplies for Bands army has
been captured.
A strong rebel force made raid into
Donaldsonville, but were repnlsed by the
gunboats
The steamers St Mary's and Crescent
sailed from New Orleans on the morning
of the Oath to bring back our troops
from Brashear City, in the vicinity of
which is large force of rebels.

~ connected with the history of the Materia

that of DR.. JOHN BULL, of Louisville, XIV. His
inimitable preparation of SaTs parilla has long
stood at the ad of the various compounds of that
valuable drug. His COMPOUND PICTORIAL OF WILD
CHERRY has become house bold word throughout
the West and South; and his Worm Lozengcs. in
less than year after their Introduction, attained
a reputation widespread the continent of
North America. But the browning glory of his
life remains TO be attained in his latest discovery

That honor belongs to the native inhabitants of

What HeRe Guards or Militia Can
No.

The fate of the rebel guerriiias who
invaded Indiana last week, is g proof of
what few resolute militia men, under
competent leader, can de. The rebels
went through the country pillaging and
burning, bat the Mitchell Home Guard
turned 0at and encoantered them, and
though worsted, compelled the rebels to
retreat to the Ohio. Another company
of mounted militia, under Major Craw-
ford, an experienced soldier, attacked
them again at the fording place, where
they expected, and had made arrange
emesEs fT for q boat to cross over and
take them off, but which, in consequence
,of their sudden retreat, had not yet ar
rived. The Home Guard then procured
a steamer and mounted guard upon it,
ewIth which they attacked the rebels from
the water as well as on land, and the en-
tire force was either killed, drowned or
oca ptured Now if the Indiana militia
ecan make resolute effort to bring their
invaders to an end like this. what is TO
prevent the three hundred thousand able
bodied militia of Pennsylvania from at
lacking and destroying Ewell's band of
,marauders, now marching up towards
Harrisburg? 1t only needs resolution
and some competent officers, to organ
-ize the force to capture or destroy the
whole Of this band. General Franklin,
Gen. Andrew Porter, or some other ex-
perienced officer, should be put instantly
in command of the militia, and with Gen
Couch in command of the volunteers,
the two would soon organize defence
which may prove fatal to EwelL-Pitts-
burg Chronicle
The border counties of Indiana have
had slight insight into the character of
Southern traitors, and with great unity
of sentiment on that subject they early
made up their minds that rebel raids into
Indiana should be expensive affairs TO
their authors.
When our border is threatened we
make its defense our special business,
letting our merchandising and money
making wait while we take holiday sport
in guerrilla hunting.
Pennsylvania has the means to do
likewise, and more to, and if her citizens
are true themselves and true to the honor
and fair fame of their State they viii
make the invasion of Pennsylvania cost
Lee his entire army and his own person
al liberty or his life. When the guer
rillas were in Indiana, every tree and
stump along the border had loyal mar
and true rife behind it.
Let it be so in Pennsylvania LIE
every rock and tree and house on tbs
tanks of the rebel army be fort, where
with long range rifles, every rebel oil
horse back that makes his appearance
, may be made to bite the dust
Let every horse, or beef, or sack o
grain stolen cost a brace of rebel lives
and the rebels will soon be glad to betsk
themselves to the desolations of Virginia

capturing the enemy's videttes. Whis-
ties of cars and drums beating were
heard The deductions of the recon-
noissance are that the enemy is evacua-

be, if Bragg can be caught he will get
battle from this army, the result of which
need not for a moment concern loyal
people. Feelers are now being thrown
forward, which will soon determine the
matter. The army is gloriously elated

A SIGNIFICANT FACT-Wben the boys
of the 5lst regiment were here two weeks
ago, for the civil purpose of partaking Of
a dinner prepared for them by the ladies',
the editor of the San and his Butternut
friends were terribly exercised, imagined
they could already see the hand writing
on the wall, and sported revolvers, shot
guns, and the like in front of the Office.
On Monday, when almost the whole
city was on the rampage and blazing
with excitement, on account of a
threatened invasion by rebel guerrillas,
the editor was perfectly calm, and came
not near the place where citizens had
met to provide means for defending our
homes No, he was not troubled. He
could sit in his sanctuna, sanctoruns, and
drink gin cocktail or a brandy smash
as though perfectly oblivious of the COM
motion surrounding him.
Well, what of it? Hadn't he made a
. pilgrimage to Kentucky and partaken of
the genial hospitality of his Southern
