DESTRUCTION OF DWELLING BY FIRE
Last night about eight o'clock a fire broke
out in the frame dwelling near the corner
of Fourth and North streets, occupied by
Mr.. John Donlan, a city hackman, and be-
fore the fire engines could reach the scene
the building was entirely consumed to-
gether with most of the furniture. The
house stood in the midst of groupe of
frame buildings which were saved by the
prompt and energetic exertions of the fire
department. The engines reached the,
ground as soon as it was possible to travel
the distance, and Immediately poured tre-
mendous streams Of water which saved the
surrounding buildings, the roofs of which
were already in blaze. The origin of the
fire is not known, and the family say there
was no light or fire in the house at the time.
The dwelling was insured but the furniture
was not.

The ALLEGED SwINDLE.-Mr. Sherman,
the proprietor of the Spotted Mule Show,
at which it was stated countryman had
been swindled out OF $115 by means Of
loaded dice, called upon us to deny the
charge, and showed paper signed by Ste
phen johnson, which says Stephen johnson
was not swindled at that establishment.
As we are not aware that anybody said
Stephen johnson was swindled, or that
such a person as Stephen johnson exists,
we are unable to see what difference it
makes-but we give Mr.. Sherman's denial
for what it is worth, as he desires we
should.

Instructions 1rOs.s s-n.vin TO Gen.
Dix not 10 Obey the Summons Of
State Court.

New YORK, July s.-The Express gives
currency to rumor that Gen. Dix, in obe-
dience to orders from Mr.. Lincoln, will not
reaper in civil process instituted against
him before Judge Russell, for shutting up
the World and Journal of Commerce, and
for arresting their editors.
AS at present advised, says the Express,
it is believed that Gov. Seymour will, if
necessary, after showing the powerlessness
the State to aid in executing the process of
the court, if the court should issue war;
rant for the arrest of the General, and it
should be resisted.

is ended in that locality.
PHILADELPHIA, July Seen. Couch has
sent a dispatch to Mayor Henry to use his
official influence at once to raise men under
the recent call of Gov. Curtin.
BALTIMORE, July S.-Advices from Har-
per's Ferry this morning show that the
rebels have left there. The stories told by
beyond South Mountain were probably
bats to mislead us. Our scouts failed to
discover any large force anywhere.
A dispatch sent from here that fifty or
sixty miles of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road had been destroyed, was untrue.
Gen. Hunter is supposed by this time to
have reached point not far from Martins
burg, and possibly has already struck a
blow at the rebels rear. No excitement
here.
SECOND DISPATCH.
FREDERICK, Nd, July 81 P. M.-The

their position of yesterday, on the road to
Boonsboro and. .Hagerstown. Gen. Wallace

looks well. Frederick is in no danger.

The 1lth Maryland one hundred days men
have arrived here and been well received.
BALTIMORE, July sap. MA dispatch
from Harper's Ferry, dated at 8 o'clock
yesterday morning, confirms the evacua-
ton of that place by the rebels, and says
our troops again hold, and the old flag
floats once more over the town.
PHILADELPHIA, June Sth.-Gen. Couch
has issued an order directing that all We
hicles ana horses belonging to men fleeing
from supposed danger shall be stopped. Ell
ther before they reach or at the bridge
across the Susqnehannah, until further or
ders. This implies that the danger, if not
actually over, is of no imminent or serious
character.
Hundreds of farmers have left their crops
just ready to be harvested.
A dispatch dated two miles north of Ha-
gerstown at 10 A. M. to-day, states that $50
picket guerillas from Imboden's and Nose
by's commands entered Hagerstown at 5
o'clock, where they were robbing the stores
and had fired the engine-house, Thurston's
warehouse, and 20 tons of government hay.
They also intended to burn Seeler & Co.'s
warehouses. and threatened to burn the
town. The turntable of the railroad had
not been disabled yet. The rebels were
heavily laden with plunder.
The rebel General McCausl and his big
ade was at Williamsport this morning, but
reports say that he will leave that place to-
day.
A high wind was blowing the fire up
through the town and great destruction
of property was feared.
Later dispatches from Greencassle assure
us that the main body of the rebels which
entered that place had retired, it is supposed,
southwark across the Potomac.

DISTRICT OF WEST TENNEssEE.S
Whereas, Railroad trains from Memphis
to Salisbury have been fired into frequent
ly by Confederate soldiers and guerrillas
within the last few days, and several SOL
dicrs and citizens killed and wounded; and
whereas, there are many persons along the
line of railroad and at Memphis, who ap-
prove and encourage such murderous pro-
ceedings, it is ordered that forty of the most
prominent and bitter secessionists in and
between Memphis and Lagrange be arrest
ed, and that twenty of them be placed on
the cars in the most conspicuous positions,
one being placed on each side of the engi-
neer, and that no train be allowed to leave
Memphis without secesh guard, until this
murderous business is desisted from. AS it
is known that several citizens of Memphis
have publicly applauded this firing upon
trains, they will be given prominent places
on the cars. Quarters win be fitted up for
them at White Station, where they will be
tenderly cared for when not on duty on
trains. The Brigadier General command
ing the cavalry division is entrusted with
the execution of this order. BY order of
