metsburg to Gettysburg, where they ar
rived yesterday. Their line OF march was
direct, and therefore shorter than the
routes of the other corps. The Cacoctin
range was q wall to them all the way,
preventing Lee from making a counter
movement and attacking them in flank.
The Second and Fifth corps were made the
centre column, and were thrown across
the Monocacy, east. three miles above
Frederick, and moved northeast through
Union to Frizlesburg, which is near the
State line. The Third and Twelfth corps
took the Middleburg road, which is mid
way these, and Of course little nearer to
Gettysburg as centre than that taken by
the other two corps. The Sixth crossed
the Monocacy east Of Frederick, and
pushed for Westminster.
The lines of march were like the sticks
OF fan-Frederick being the point of "a
diation. By taking these routes the army
was placed in position for quick movement
to keep Baltimore covered-to cross the
| Susquehanna by pontoon below Harris
| burg, if neeG, be, and save Philadelphia,
or, for preventing Lee from slipping down
past the Cacoctin for a rapid movement
on Washington. On Sunday afternoon
the troops all moved from Frederick upon
these projected lines. Tuesday AFTERNOON
the sixth corps was at Westminster, the
Second aud Fifth at Frizlesburg, the Third
and Twelfth 81 Taneytown, the First and
Eleventh at Emmettsburg.
| They were all in motion on these lines,
when suddenly orders were given for a
change Of direction-a change to all e1-
cept the First and Eleventh. They had
their faces set due north up the Frederick
and Gettysburg pike and kept on. You
see all the other sticks OF the tan bent
northwest and gathered to point at Get
tysburg.
Lees movements necessitated this sud
den change. He withdrew from Harris
burg and York on Monday. He was con
centrating at Gettysburg. If Meade KEEP
on his lines of March Lee would have
him wholly in flank. All the while hi.
main army had been no further north thar
Chambersburg. He was moving Long
street and A. P. Hill directly east, ana he
would come upon the corps separately an6
crumble them up--splnter them as you
can broom walking stick-by pounding
it endwise with a hammer.

VIA SOLITARIA.

Alone 1 walked the peopled city
Where each seems happy with his own;
Oh, friends, ask not for your pity
walk alone.
No more for me yon lake rejoices,
Though wooed by loving airs OF June
oh, birds, your sweet and piping voices
Are out of tune.
In vain for me the elm-tree arches
It's plumes in maay feathery spray;
Tn vain the evenings starry marches,
And sunlit day.
In vain YOUR beauty, summer flowers;
Ye cannot greet those cordial eyes;
They gaze on other fields than ours
On other skies.
The gold is rifed from the Golfer,
The blade is stolen from the sheath;
Life has but one more boon to offer,
And that is-Death.
Yet we'll I know the voice of Duty,
And therefore life and health must crave,
Though she who gave the world its beauty
Is in her grave
live, o lost one for the living
Who drew their earliest life from thee,
And wait until, with glad thanksgiving,
shall be free.
For life to me is as station,
Wherein, apart, traveller stands
One absent long from home and nation,
In other lands
And as he who stands and listens,
Amid the twilight's chill and gloom,
To hear, approaching in the distance,
The train for home.
For death shall bring another mating
Beyond the shadows of the tomb,
On yonder shore bride is waiting
Until come.
In yonder fields are children playing,
And there-O vision of delight =
see a child and mother straying
In robes of white.
Thou, then, the longing heart that breakfast,
Stealing its treasures one by one,
I'll call thee blessed when thou makest
The parted-one.

flank, pushing on, and evidently troubling
that General.
Gregg has gone north, and is at it with
Stuart. Riding up the Bonaughton road
we find him in position, sending shells
over long stretch of field into the rebel
column, just visible in the edge of distant
forests. Stuart replies and retires. He
would like to get at that long line of wag-
ons coming in, but he will be foiIed in

On Sunday, the 2sth of June, the First

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette says there is scheme Oh foot for
colonizing from Indiana, where there b
no election this year, an immense fraudu-
lent vote for Vallandigham. He says
This organization exists principally in
the border counties Of both States, along
the line from the Ohio river to the north
line Of the State, aud large sums Of money
have already been raised to execute the
scheme. Funds, too. have been contrib
uted in large amounts. we are informed,
in New York and elsewhere in khe East.
and men are now actually employed in
arranging and putting the infef nal ma
chine in working order; and some voters
have already been brought over And scat
tered around.
The plan is to contract with and pay
Copperheads in Indiana, who have no
families, to come to Ohio, ostenbibly for
the purpose of laboring, who ar . to re-
ceiye part payment in advance and take
an oath that they will vote for Vallandig-
ham. They are to be forwarded by COM
mittees there to committees in Ohio, who
will quietly distribute aud place them.
They are chiefly to be lett in large cities
and towns most subject to floating popu-
lations, thereby to avoid suspicion a."
This probably accounts for the conf
dent tone of New York journA l which
recently said, speaking of tile Ohio
election:
I'VE have received ASSURANCES from
the highest public, as we'll as most trust
worthy private, sources, that the contest
can have but one terminatIon-the cleo
ton Of Vallandigham By the most mag
ni6ccnt majority ever given 10 his native
State"

Enquirer, the organ of jeff. Davis, thus
endeavors to sustain the dropping spirits
Of his disheartened followers:
"Let the people of the Confederacy
not be downcast at the result at Gettys-
burg. nor BY the loss of Vicksburg and
Port Hudson. These losses will be more
than made good to US by the disorganiza-
tion OF Northern society, which will result
rem the expected triumph Of the Peace

Why the Drafs has n OF been Ordered
in Iowa.

The Iowa City Republican having
stated by authority portion of the facts
IN relation to the non-ordering of the
draft in Iowa, we are now at liberty to
publish the whole facts, known to us sew
eral days ago, but hitherto withheld from
our readers by request. Adjutant Gene
raj Baker has been for some time past en-
deayorlng TO obtain correct return from
The War Department of all the men en-.
listed in the army from Iowa; but mas
much as that Department credits to each
State only The number actusIly recorded
on the rolls on file at Washington, and
many of the rolls of the last new reyi-
ments having not been forwarded, some
delay has arisen. The total plumber of
troops furnished by Iowa, however, has
been very nearly ascertained. The Off
clal statement of the War Department
shows that up to the LIST day oil June last,
Iowa was credited with an excess of thir-
teen thousand eight hundred and ninety
seven volunteers over and above oil calls
This was exclusive of the probable quota
OF the State under the call to fill which a
draft has been ordered in the Eastern
States. Estimating this quota at Is 900,
lowa's account would stand thus:
