Routes to the East.

IT is matter ofsurprise, not to say Of
actual unbelief, to many, ifnot most ofthe
people ofthe Northwest, Westand South
west, thatfrom Green Bay and Lacrosse,
on the North, to Cairo and ST. Louis, on
the South, the shortcstroute to New Y ork,
Philadelphia and Baltimore, lies through
Pittsburg. When We add thatthis route,
SO generally supposed to be circuitous
one to New York, is actually nearly one
hundred miles shorter than the route via
Toledo, Buffalo, and Albany, and sipy
miles less distance than via Toledo &
Erie Railway; this fact becomes only
the more astounding to the large num-
Der Of persons who have heretofore re-
garded Buffalo as on the. direct line to
New York. A further advantage of the
route via Pittsburg, is, that there is bat
one change Of cars between Chicago and
New York Or Philadelphia, an adyant=
age of great moment to ladies and fami-
lies, and withal Of no less comfort to
business men, All these advantages can
be secured, by buying your ticket tothe
East over the Pittsbqrg, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railway, which can be had in
Chicago, and at allgthe Ticket Offices of
all prominent lines in the. West. sae-
The reduction Of fare just made by this
line, to $500 from Chicago to New
York, privilege belonging. to the short
est line to make the rates, shouldinduce
our people generallyeto try this new and
admirably appointed line, whereby they
can reach the East in less time and for a
lower fare than BY any other route ~.

rrhe Old Flags of the I'd Regiment
: ---Sacred Relics. =

On the 18th inst, says the Journa5
Col Lucius Fairchild received by ex-
nress the old colors Of the I'd Regiment,
and next morning the gallant Colonel de-
l;vered the war-worn menentoes Of the
bravery Of his noble regiment to Govern
or Solomon, they are now deposited.
in the Executive office, where they will
be carefully cherished and preserved.
Though treasured and protected with
the greatest care, and not upfq4rle9d in
some Of the hottest fights in which the
regiment has participated, they are sad
" worn and torn. The united States
color in particular is morethan half car
ried away, and the staff is badly shat
tered by shot. 5'a..s@'
The U. S. Flag was the gift of the
ladies of Madison, and the State flag
was afterwards furnished blythe State of
WISCONSIN. 1t is but3li more than
two years, and seems bbt{as yesterday,
|since these banners, bright and new
were placed in the hands Of the regi-
ment, They have been borne part Of
the time by.Co. G, formerly Capt. Me-
Kee's,) from Grant county, and part Of
the time bylCoGH, formerly Capt. Ran
dolph 50 from Madison. Manya gallant
standard bearer has been struck down,
but other worthy hands have kept the
colors up. Alas r how many brave
hearts, while dealing destruction to the

death. a8 4 81

The Convention.


{ From the formal Of the 18th we
learn that nearly all of the delegates to
the Republican Union Convention, to be
holden at the Capitol to-day, have al
ready arrived in the city. AN excel
lent spirit seems to prevail among them.
All are alone anxious to secure the nom
ination Of men for the different Offices,
who shall be thoroughly sound on the
question Of suppressing the rebellion
MEN who will uphold the administration
IN all things having this great object in
view. 1t does not seem to be ques-
tionamong the delegates, as to what party
candidate heretofore belonged. The
question now is, does he love his coun-
try ADORE party, and will he do all in
his power to aid the administration to
SAFE the country. We are glad to see
this noble and patriotic spirit SO mani
fest among the delegates and we trust
the action Of the Convention will be
harmonious, and that true and tried
men will be presented for the yrrious
positions on1the ticket. l1os teA5 orr

From Maryland Heights.

MoSocAoY, June 22.-I have just returned
from Maryland Heights. The place is
strongly defended, and is the best security
of Iarper's Ferry, which it admirably COM
nands. No rebels have yet appeared
Should they come, a scvercr trial than here
toforc will be required ere tins position is
overcome.
From immediate authorities / have learn
ed that the nearest rebels are at Little An
tietam, abou. six miles from Harper's Ferry
Their force at that point is not at present
large, but other detachmcnts are thought to
be in the neighborhood.
Very heavy and continuous connonading
was heard all day yesterday in the direction
of Aldie and Middleburg. Officers, who
appeared to have hint OF thc situation.
conjectured from the circumstance of the
firing that the enemy were rctreatng.
General Ewells forces, distributed in
small portions from Sharpsburg to Frcdc-
rick, have been busy reconnoitring and
foraging. They can be easily concentrated,
and will soon prudently retire Their move
ment will have satisfied a number of pur-
poses, if it has disappointed other designs.
Hooker is doubtless active in rear and flank
and the necessity of keeping within opera
ting distance Of Lee, and ut the same time
covering the intentions of the rebel leaders,
will explain the humors OF their demonstra-
tions in Maryland. These seem to be grow
ing more faint, but the rebels are not less
active i'll other quarters. NJ B.

The rebels are reported TO be at Union

The citizens are making extensive prepar-
atiOns to receive them.
HARRIsBURo, june 23-1 o'clock p. NJ
The rebels reoccupied Chambcrsburg, about
II O'Clock this morning. Our cavalry pickets
are now five miles this side.
The troops under General Knipe, which
were at Chambersburg, have safely fallen
back to the main body.
The authorities believe that the rebels
are in considerable force in Chambcrsburg.
Much indignation is felt here towards
some of the citizens for the eXorbitant
prices they charge for everything. The
soldiers who have turned out for the defence
of the capitol complain that while they
have left their homes, sacrificing all business
interests, the citizens here are remaining
at home, robbing them Of whatever small
change they may have. Some OF the citi-
zens residing near the encampmcnts have
been mean enough 10 demand payment for

operator at Chambersburg and some news
