50th New York regiment, Lieut.. Col. Nc
Nary, marched to the railroad depot, passing

these officers, with their stats, complimented
the regiment by appearing at that early hour.
The 10th and 5lst Massachusetts were in line

seven companies of the Sd lett the wharf at
Morehead City in the steamer S. r. Spaulding,

LEE ACROSS THE RaPpaHRaaOGK.
The Rebels Coming North

New YORK, June l5.-We learn from
Washington that Lees army, 10000 strong,
was on this side of the Rappahannock yester
day, marching northward, and Hooker's army
was fastening north to prevent the advance of
the rebels.
PHILADELPHIA, June ia dispatch from
Greencastle, Pennsylvania, dated at half past
ten O'Clock this morning, reports as follows: :
Our troops arc now passing here in retreat
from Hagerstown to Chambersburg. Hagers-
town has been evacuated. All the rolling
stock of the railroad ard all the stores have
been removed. Rumor fixes the rebel force
at 10000, but this is probably an exaggera-
ton.
HARRISBURG, June dispatches received
to- day from the operators at Chamberburg and
uagerstown give the information of negroes
who have arrived there, to the effect that the
rebel cavalry arrived at Perrysville and Mar
tinsburg about noon, and at the latter place
there had been considerable hard fighting.
Gen. Milroy was cuntesting the advance of the
rebels Telegraphc communication IS de-
stroyed between Winchester and Martinsburg,
the lines having been broken by the rebels
about i o'clock this morning.
Gen. Reynolds has been driven by large
force of rebels from Perrysvile to Bunker
Hill. The enemy are also at Winchester.
All Gen Lees army is moving. The tdings
from Muddy Branch and Nolan's Ferry indi-
cate that warm work has been going on there.
The capital and principal cities and towns of
Pennsylvania are in absolute danger.
PHILADELPHIA, June l5.-The Evening
Bulletin publishes the following news from
dispatches received at the Pennsylvania rail
road company's Office. \ dispatch received
to. day from Bottoms station, on the Northern
Central railroad says that Gen. Tyler had re-
treated from Martinsburg at o'clock last
evening, and that our force at Winchester had
probably been captured yesterday, as the en-
envy are in force, probably 10000 strong, at
II lgerstown. The dispatch adds that the
danger is great, as the enemy is advancing in
heavy force. A private dispatch from trust
worthy source states that the rebels appeared
near Chambersburg this morning, and that it
is probable that the place has already been re-
occupied by them.
NEW YORK, June 10 The New York
Evening Post prints the following:
WASHINGTON, June 15.-It has been ascer-
taineds that Lees advance cavalry have
crossed the Potomac at Nolen's Ferry and are
at Hagerstown. Maryland, in force. 1t is said
that Gen. Milroy still holds Martinsburg,
where he contests LongsTeet's advance.
Hooker's entire army is in motion. Yestero
day it was reported that all his force except
ing a single division was moving towards
Warenton, near which it was supposed he
designed to cross the Rappahannock with Il
view Of advancing towards Culpepper, twenty
miles distant, where Lees forces were con-
centratlng. To day hear that Hooker has
changed his position at Warenton. and Is
moving towards an unknown destination.
There has been no fighting. so far, at or near
Culpepper Indications point to an attempt
by the enemy to get into the Shenandoah val
ley through the lower gnps.

ST. LOUIS, June 6, 1868.
TO the Editor of the Worcester Spy =
Brig. Gen. Boomer of this city, son of Rev.
j. B. Boomer, Worcester, Mass, was killed
May 22d, 1868. From some of the promi-
nent officers in Grants army we learn few
particulars of the untimely death OF this
young hero.
From the beginning of the campaign Gen.
Boomer had shown remarkable courage, en-
thuslasm, and cheerfulness,-so much, that
"hen the grand army marched out upon its
dangerous march on the 25th of April, Gen.
"raht ordered Boomers brigade to lead, as
1t could be relied upon in every case of emer-
gency and difficulty. At jackson Boomers
brigade was first in the fight. and did great
service; but it was at Champion Hills that
this gallant officer distinguished himself nv
generalship and bravery unsurpassed bv any
one since the beginning of the war.
On the morning of the 22d the order wa.
given by Grant that the whole line should
make the assault upon the batteries at Vicks.

1t is reported from Washington that the
rebel army under Lee has crossed the Kappa
hammock, intending to enter Maryland and
Pennsylvania. The crossing was made last
week, and, Monday night, the rebel troops
were in force near the upper Potomac, at
Winchester, Martinsburg, Berryville, and
other places; and portion Of their cavalry,
having crossed the Potomac, were at Hagers-
town. Later reports stated that the rebel cav
airy were moving into Pennsylvania, and had
probably taken possession Of Chambersburg.
Gen. Milroy made brave stand at Winches-
ter, it is said and finally cut his way through
a very large force of rebels, and retreated to
Harper's Ferry. Most of our troops in that
part of Virginia had gone to Harper's Ferry,
which place, we presume, will not now be ig-
ANONYMOUSLY surrendered, as it was during the
first raid of the rebels into Maryland.
This news did not come from the govern
ment, or from the reporter Of the associated
press. Most of it came to New York, Mon
day night, in private ways When we ct
news by such methods it is difficult to say how
We can feel that excitement is supreme in
most of the dispatches that come from Penn
sylvanla; but the news appears, neverthe-
less, to be substantially true, for the president
has issued a call for troops from the states
nearest this threatened invasion, while the
authorities of Pennsylvania, aided by Gen.
Couch, are unremittingly active preparing the
state to repel the invasion. They must under
stand the situation much better than those
at a distance who have not the means for OBJ
tanning accurate information. Some suppose
that while Lee sends his cavalry to harrass
Maryland and the Pennsylvania border, ms
real design is to collect supplies in the She
nannoah valley, and get possession of western
Virginia but, if he is moving northward, as
all report he means good deal more than
this, and Governor Curtins apprehensiohs
are, DOUBTLESS, well founded.
1t seems tohave been determined at Rich
mond that the rebel army in Virginia shall
risk even its very existence on an attempt to
win some great advantage by invading Mary
land and Pennsylvania. They may cause Sc
rious damage in the towns they succeed in
reaching; but, the inv aoior,' they have nm
dertnken will cost them dearly, This is so
certain that these invading operations may
hesitate when the bulk of Lees ar
my reaches the upper Potomac, (should
it succeed in getting there,) and be-
come little more than a cavalry raIu.
present we are not allowed to have an au-
thentic and reliable account of what is going
forward. No dispatch tells where Lees army
is, nor what Gen. Hooker is doing, nor from
what point to expect the first heavy clash of
arms. There is no good reason for withhold
ing the Washington dispatches so completely
and should some of the officials who control
this matter get scared out of their wits by this
raid of the rebels, we should try to be resign
ed. Their successors might behave more
reasonably.

1t has been arranged between Col. Ludlow

by making any special exchange of officers,
acknowledge the right of the rebel authorities
to discriminate among our forces by OBTAINING
some and releasing others. He insists that all
