WEEKLY SUMMARY OF NEWS.

1t seems that notwithstanding the long
threats of the rebels to invade Penn
sylvania, they have actually been permitted
to do so. The Philadelphia Evening Bulle-
tin has the following: Dispatches from
Bottoms Station of the Northern Central
Road states Gen. Tyler retreated from Mar
tinsburg last evening: that our force at Win
chester. was probably captured, as the rebels
were ten thousand strong at Hagerstown.
The danger is great of the enemy advancing
in force. A private dispatch states the reb-
els appeared near Chambersburg this morn
ing, and it is probable that place has been
occupied by them.
A Harrisburg dispatch of June 18th gives
the following intelligence: Governor Curtin
assumed command of the Department of the
Susquehauna. He summons for the defence
of tue State all citizens between the ages of
eighteen and sixty, to organize an army
corps, embracing cavalry, artillery and in
fantry, to serve during the pleasure of the
President or continuance of the war. when
not required for active service to defend this
Department, are to be returned to their
homes, subject to the call of the Command
ing General. Another telegram from the
same paper says: Dispatches to-day from
the operators at Chambersburg and Hagers-
town give information that the rebel cavalry
arrived at Perrysville aud Martinsburg
about noon. At the latter place there had
been hard fighting. Milroy was eontesting
their advance. Communication is destroy
ed between Winchester and Martinsburg.
Reynolds has been driven by a large force
of rebels from Perrysville to Bunker Hill.
The enemy were also at Winchester. All

morning, but drove the enemy from the
river to Brady Station. The rebels were
numerically superior to US, including our
small supporting force of infantry. They
had FIVE large brigades under command of
Fitz Hugh Lee, w. F. H. Lee. Jones. Field
and Robinson, with sixteen pieces of artil-
lery under Major Benham. They had been
reviewed the previous day by Gen. Lee and
were under orders to leave on their grad
raid into Maryland and Pennsylvania We'd
nesday morning. Our forces returned al
most unmolested to this side ofthe river dur
ing the afternoon.
Advices state that reinforcements from
Brashear City and other points, to the num-
berof {, 900 reached Gen. Banks on the 30th
and 3lst ult., and our troops there outnum-
bered the rebels four to one. The rebels
are hemmed in. No succor can reach
them. Their force is variously estimated
at from 6, 600 to 10000 we'll supplied with
corn meal. but few other provisions and a
small supply of ammunition. 1t is bel ieyed

A statement is made in private letters
that the works defending Vieksburg are
much stronger than those at Sebastopol.
1t is not mere guess work Admiral Porter,
who was in the Crimea while the siege was
in progress, declares this to be so.
The Anglo African, in its last issue, in
an article on the colored element and the
war. states that the number of negro troops
now in the service is $4,000, not including
those acting as pioneers for Banks and
Grant. and says these will doubtless swell
the number to $4,000.
The Philadelphia Enquirer has a letter
from Port Royal, South Carolina, Sd, sta
ting that Col. Montgomery. Second colored
regiment, defeated the rebels at Pocotaligo
and were holding the railroad bridge be-
tween Savannah and Charleston. This is
Col. Montgomery of Kansas.

The Invasion of Pennsylvania.
PHILADELPHIA, June Is.

L HlLADELtHlA, Ouuc To-
A letter from Harrisburg, dated l p. M.
says train of 100 wagons, which left Mar
tinsburg on Sunday, arrived safely.
The rebel advance this morning was five
miles east of Harrisburg.
The banks removed their deposits yester-
day, and the State archives are being re-
moved to Philadelphia.
The Democratic convention will not as
semble here tomorrow. A number of the
Western delegates refused to come further
than Altoona, and returned home.
Hundreds of persons have arrived from
the south side of the river, bringing in all
their horses, cattle and other valuables.
Workmen are engaged in preparing the
works for defense on the opposite side of
the river. A good resistance could be
made if troops were here to man the guns.
Government officials expect the arrival
of the rebels tonight or tomorrow. If
they reach here so soon there will be little
prospect of successful defense, but if de-
layed, thousands will reach here within
"a hours, as the country is thoroughly
aroused.
At meeting last evening, Gen. Cameron
blamed the Government for not sending
men To alu III TIE ueleHSe Ol TIE Cd pltal,
when Pennsylvania so literally contributed
men and money for carrying on the war.
He said while he had every confidence in
the President and commanders of the De
partments, such men as Mcclellan and
franklin, whose leadership the people had
every confidence in, woull rally to the stan
dard every loyal man. He called upon the
Governor to send for Nc Clellan to take charge
of the State.
Every train for the East is packed with
refugees, and goods belonging to merchants
Pittsburg was in a state of the most In
tense excitement, business being suspended
aud the citizens joining in the preparation
Tor defense. 1t was reported in that city
that Harrisburg was burning, having beer
fred by the rebels, but this needs conirma
ton.

From Winchester and Bull Run.

The following official telegram from Gen.
Milroy, has been received:
1 am in with the greater part of my COM
mand. The Notifications at Winchester
were invested by about I 900 rebels, and
go pieces of artillery. They carried my
outer works by storm, at six o'clock Sun
day evening. 1 spiked ali my guns on
Sunday evening, and left with my whole
com maud at one O'Clock on Monday m orn-
ing, bringing all the horses of my artillery
and wagons, but was intercepted by an
overwhelming rebel force, with artillery,
four miles this side of Winchester, on the
Winchester road and after desperate
fight of four hours, 1 got through. We
were pursued by a large cavalry force, which
picked up a number of my men. 1 think
my loss will not exceed 1900 killed, woun-
ded and missing.
A Baltimore correspondent of the Inquir-
err, writing at 5 p. m. on Monday, says:
learn from high authority that a battle has
been going on to-day on the old Bull Run
ground, between Hooker and Lee. Hooker
is doing good service.
