We learn to-day that the people of Rockville,
and Montgomery county generally, are in a
panic, the ne lief that another rebel raid is in
progress, and that they are running their
horses, stock, &c, within the Notifications of
Washington and Georgetown. A gentleman
who left Rockville this morning says he saw
large numbers OF farmers with their stock on
the road this morning, and they were hasten.
ing as though the rebels were right at their
heels.
The report in Montgomery is current that the
rebels are crossing an immense army at Ed
wards Ferry and other fords of the Potomac
Indeed rumOr had it current that the force was
at least seventy-five or eighty thousand streng,
and commanded by General Lee in person.
Whether there is any foundation for this report
or not we have as yet had no means OF verify
ing, bu, there is no doubt Of the fact tina. the
Montgomery county faI mers are badly scared.
We understand that portions of the 9Th and
the 10th corps, who chased the rebels into vir-
GINA, are returning from Smokers Gap, on
their way to this city, and the probability is
that II is this returning force which has thus
disturbed the peace Of mind Of the Maryland
farmers living on the line Of the Potomac.

GOVERNMENT SECURITIES.
FROM ATLANTA.

Our Ferces in Possession Of q Portion of
the City-The Fighting on w ednesday-
in Wounded and Prisoners and 500 Killed
Our Loss 1, 500 in Killed and Wounded.
The Government received a despatch to. day
from the telegraph operator at Chattanooga,
via Louisville, as follows:
"Atlanta is not ours yet. Our forces find
strong opposition. 1t seems that we are in
possession of a part of the city, but the enemy
holds the rest"
Dispatches to the New York Herald state that
in the fighting on Wednesday the rebels met
with a severe repulse, leaving in our hands on
their retreat to their Notifications some 4, 900 in
wounded and prisoners, and leaving some 500
of their dead on the field.
We fought mostly behind earthworks, and
our loss was comparatively small, we losing,
all told, ia killed and wounded, only 1,5OO.
Gen. Hooker, commanding the Goth CORDS, In
advancing his lines on Wednesday, met the
enemy in an open field, and a most desperate
battle, lasting several hours, was the result.
The enemy was thoroughly whipped and
driven from the field. After the battle Hooker
reported to Sherman as follows ~ have buried
400 dead rebels and 1900 wounded lay in my
'front.'"
In our extracts elsewhere in the Star from
late Richmond papers will be found dispatch
from Atlanta giving particulars Of the des.
truction by Sherman's cavalry of telegraphtc

This indicates the success Of Rosseau's cav

gave out that the rebels were all day yesterday

At first the reports created some uneasiness,
but 1t has now become the opinion Of the citi-
zens generally that the fugitives saw the de-
tachEent Of the 9th corps returning, and with
out waiting to ascertain whether they were
friends or foes, skedaddled. Portions Of the
9th corps have arrived in town this morning,
which furnished reason for believing that the
alarm was caused by their approach to Rock.

Since our first edition went to press we have
conversed with an officer connected with the
Quarterm aster's Department, who arrived
here at noon from Edwards Ferry. He reports
no rebels except probably few guerrillas) in
that neighborhood, or this side of the Blue

about Rockville are scared for some cause or

could not see or hear Of anything to cause any
apprehension of a return of the raiders.
