The surrender of Vicksburg in effect gives
us quite a hundred thousand veterans to be
instantly employed in other quarters Gen
Halleck remarked in his speech last night that
Grant is already at Port Hudson. We knew
week ago that he had sent large reinforce
ments to Banks, who have doubtless reached
him by this time. That Grant has himself
gone down there already illustrates his energy
and promptne. foLcib!y.
1t Is TO be presumed that he has already aided
Rosecrans, ser ding him sufficient reinforce
ments to enable him to take Chattanooga and
to dc stroy the important military man ufactur-
ing establishments OF the traitors in upper
Georgia almost soon rs Port Hudson will
be ours. In three menths, the surrender of
Ficksburg gives us at least one hundred thous-
and, if ottwo hundred thousand, additional
black troops-many more than sufficient, with
a few white officers, to hold every important
point, not only on the Mississippi but west OF
the Alleganies, our armies may take ere the
termination of this glorious campaign leaving
all our gallant troops now in the field TO con-
tnue active operations in all directions

PRENTIss PREPARED FOR THEM.

CAIRO, July s.-Between eight and ten thou.
sand rebels, under Gems. Holmes, Price and
Marmaduke, made an attack on Helena on the
morning of the 4th inst. They advanced in
three columns, but the roughness of the ground
was such as to prevent the rebels from bring
ing up their artillery. They attempted to carry
the works by assault. The center column
charged in the direction of Fort Curtis, and
took three lines of rifie-pits. The flank attack
was not SO successful, which subjected the
center to an enfiIading fire, which swept them
down in great numbers.
They were soon surrounded, and one whole
brigade, or what was left of it, numbering $40,
icll TITO our hands, 740 of whom arrived here
yesterday orning, among them Col. LIE wis,
of the 9TH Missouri, and Col Johnson and Col.
Bell.
Gen. Prertiss was aware of the contemplated
attack, and prepared for it. He had about 1000
men, and was assisted by the gunboat Tyler
Prisoners say the attack will be renewed. The
battle commenced at a. m. and continued till
10 a. m.
The rebel loss is fifteen hundred killed,
wounded and prisoners. The entire Federal
loss was rot over ore hundrcdN
General Prentiss is confident he can repel
any assault which can be made.
1t IS thought the rebel depredations near
Lake Providence were 10 draw the gunboats to
that point; thus to give them better oppor-
tunity at Helena.

THE EFFECT OF THE NICKsBURG News
UPON BUSINESS GENERALLY-The bread
stuff market was heavy and lower this morn
ing, owing to the decline of gold and ex-
change, together with the untayorlble ad-
vices from the other side. Provisions were
likewise depressed and the tendency is DOWN
wards, while there is only limited business
doing The session of Change was over when
the announcement of the fail of Eicksburg was
made, and this afternoon it is almost inn posi- BILE
to move breadstuns and provisions at any
price, owing to the heavy decline in gold and
exchange. Cotton is decidedly lower At this
writing, and it is utterly impossible to name
price at which it could be sold, the market
being in such u panic and SO completely unset
tied. Petroleum is dull and loves.
The effect upon foreign produce and mer-
chandlse has been stunning. and we omit
number of ar ticles in our semi-weekly re view
quotations are out of the question, and
scarcely anything has settled value Just at
the moment. The heavy decline in gold and
cotton broke the back bone of the recent spec-
ulation in domestic cotton fabrics and to sell
freely, large commissions would have to be
granted. Woollens are not SO much affected
Foreign dry goods are heavy under the i'm
mense fall in exchange. The boot and shoe
trade has suffered considerable, and the sale
to-day showed a large falling off, as compared
with the June sales.
The effect of the news has been like an cleo.
trio shock in financial and commercial circles,
and the havoc it has created may be seen from
our remarks. Gold, stocks produce and mer-
chandise are all decidedly lower, and the
wheels OF business everywhere, except at the
Stock Exchange, has been almost blocked

THAT HARRISBURG DESPATCH


We place little faith in the Harrisburg des-
patch announcing the total humiliation of the
remnant Of Lees army at Williamsport yestar-
day.
Independe nSof the fact that such dispatches
from Harrisburg almost invariably turn out
incorrect-untrue-wek no that no such news
has been received here via Frederick, from
whence information from the vicinity of Will
Transport can reach here sooner than via
Harrisburg. Neither of the Frederick des-
patches received in Washington to-day confirm
this stupendous Harrisburg account
Gen. Sedgwck and his gallant veterans are,
however, so ne-r Williamsport as that he may
row be heavily engaged with the rebels He
and his force have long, open account to settle
with the traitors; and we trust, as we belle We,
that the continued rain storm will enable him
to make the settlement shortly, satisfac torily

THE FACTS In THE CASE,

On Sunday, the 5th inst, the Secretary of w ar
received dispatch from Col Ludlow, the U
S. Commissioner for exchange of prisoners of
war, attached to the staff of Major General
Dix, Commander of the Department of Vir-
ginia, to the effect that alexander H. Steph ems,
Military Commissioner for the Confederate
States" had presented himself in a ssConfeder-
ate'' steamer, under a flag of truce, and stated
TO Col. Ludlow that he was the bearer of
communication in writing from jefferson
Davis, Comm ander in Chief of the Land and
Naval forces OF the Confederate States of
America to "Abraham Lincoln, Command der
in Chief of the Land and Naval forces of the
United States OF America" and that he desired
to proceed in the same Confederate steamer to
Washington to deliver the said communication,
attended only by Robert Ould, as Secretary,
for the purpose OF comforting upon the subjects
of the aforesaid communication, and the off,
GERS and crew of the steamer The Secretary
of the Navy. on the same day, received a SINH
in command of the U. S. Squadron in Hamp-
ton Roads.
On Monday, the Secretary OF War and the
Secretary of the Navy respectively answered
TO Col. Ludlow and Rear Admiral Lee, that
"The request of Alexander II. Stephens is in
admissible. The customary agents and chan
nels are adequate for all needful military
communication and conference between the
United States forces and the insurgents

NEW YORK, July s.-The following is a spe.
cial to the New York Herald
HARRISBURG, July z-EFening.-Ih have Just
received late and important intelligence from
Williamsport assn
The rebels were drawn up along the line of
the Potomac. The river was rolling and surg
ing, brimful. The enemy had no pontoon
bridges, and were terrying their wagons across,
under great difficulty, in two scows.
The operation was so slow that it simply
amounted to somewhat of a stand still. Our
army had already arrived at the scene, and at
four O'Clock this afternoon furious battle was
progressing, in which the annihilation OF tie
rebel army was almost reduced to certainty.
LATER
HARRISBURG, July 7-i0.20 p. m.-The latest
report here is that the whole rebel army is
routed in utter panic. They are fleeing in all
directions, throwing away arms, and aban-
dening guns, trains, and everything for life.

LATE FROM HAGERsTOw,
INTERESTING PARTICULARS OF THE CnN
FEDERATE RETREAT
THE REBELS ADMIT A TERRIBLE DEFEAT

From private letter received in this CITY
from Hagerstown we take the following:
HAGRRsTowS, July 6.-Heavy cannonadipr
was heard here all day yesterday. All sorts of
rumors Were afioat. Some said that it was AZ
Smithsburg, others that il was at Fuuk,s
Mountain House, which is more likely. From
the Seminary Hill we could see the flash of the
cannon. Those who had spy-giasses could
see the rebels retreating.
Saturday night, about one o'clock, we were
startled from sleep by the rum bling of wagons
and the tread of cattle, which the rebels were
hurrying through town. 1T said by persons
who conversed with them, that the wagons
contained about 1,lOO wounded Their groans
Were hcart.rcpding. They said they were
badly cut up; that the Yankees seemed FOR
while to be falling back, but all at on &c they
started up and opened their cannon ON them
and cut them down like hail. MIR. GEORGE
Downs an and other Union citizens cent them
something to eat.
Stragglers are coming in constantly. There
is small force of Union cavalry here, who
capture them as fast as they come in A battle
is expected here to-day. Kenly's brigade is
looked for hourly. We anticipate battle in
our streets. The most intense excitement pre-
walls. 1t is said that Gettysburg is a scene of
desolation.
We dread the retreat of the rebel army this
way. They killed an innocent man last Fri
day, named Strife, a farmer They entered
his house and demanded his money, which he
refused to give. They then shot him dead, and
his little boy said if they would not shoot his
mother, he would show them where the money
was. 1t was buried in the garden, aud
amounted 10 two hundred dollars

TROPHIES,

In the hall OF the Navy department may be
seen flag and jack, taken from the rebel IRON
clad steamer Atlanta, after her capture on the
18th ult. in Warsaw Sound, which she entered
for the purpose Of attacking our blockadlng
vessels at that point and vicinity.
The flag is the new one of the rebels, which
was not to be raised before the LIST of uly but as
the Atlantas design was considered a certain
success, the time was anticipated, and she was
permitted to raise it that it might be said that
the first victory under 1t was the gobbling up
OF some of our iron-clads. The flag needs no
description here, as we gave it in our columns
some time since.
The jack is blue field with seven stars, in
the form of a circle. We presume the stars
are meant TO represent the first States that de-
termined upon secession.

Nothing else in the newspapers yesterday
seemed as stale and fat as the New York
Herdld's diatribe of the day against Stanton
and Halleck In the face of the recent glorious
military events, 1t sputtered more gable about
their alleged inefficiency, and continued to
urge their removal, as though oblivious to the
fact that every man, woman and child in the
country is well aware that to their efficient
discharge of their respective duties the country
is. indeed, in no small part indebted for the
present prospect of the speedy suppression of
the rebellion.

on Sunday morning.
The passengers announce that Gen. Pember-
ton sent flag OF truce on the morning Of the
9TH of July and offered to surrender if his men
were allowed to march out. Gen. Grant Is re-
ported to have replied that no men should leave
excepting as prisoners Of war. Gen. Pember-
ton then after cons ultation with his command
ers, Internationally surrendered. This news

soon that Johnston's army is without officers.

knoxville must be ven up in that event, and
