Fremont.


The National "a Convention held at Cleve-
land has labored and brought forth-not a
mouse. but less. The issue is dgnifed ri by
the name and style of John G. Fremont, for
President of the United States. By courtesy
this thing was Major General in the army
of the United States. For the first time du-
RUG his life, which has been too long, he has
rendered sigal service to his country by re-
signing that position. The strongest argu-
ment that can be brought against President
Lincoln is that he appointed the miseraoie
imbecie to that position. The letter accept
ing the honor conferred by that Convention
is all that his warmest admirers could nave
expected, granting that his admirers hau !he
same amount of common sense that theif Il
lustrous leader possesses. The passage IN
that letter ia which he criticises the want OF
economy in the present Administration is Ger
tainly the climax of impudenee only to be
approximated to by the brilliant history,
cash account included of the brilliant cam
pain of this delectable Major General, who
had command, Tor rather his followers did,
of the Department of Missouri. This illus
trous cuss, who was supposed by some .te,c
men in high places, to possess some talent.
the President was induced to try by making
him Major General. We can only account
for it on the principle that everything is sup
posed TO be good for something, and the Pres
ident knew he was good for nothing else.-
1t is barely possible the same rule of action

The Star learns that the proper disposition
Of troops was Immediately made TO check them
and to find out their intentions. Artillery
firing commenced at Point of Rocks early on
Tuesday evening, and continued all night.
Our infantry batteries and gunboats we're
said to be engaged, but most Of the firing was
doubtless done by the gunboats, which were
shelling the banks of the river. Fighting was
also going on near Bermuda Hundred, and it
was reported that the Rebels we're posted
three miles from that place.
Parties who were at General Buffers head
quarters on Tuesday night state that the roll
of musketry and artillery was incessant.
Yesterday morning, when the Brooks left
City Point, firing was still going on, but
seemed to have slackened.
Early yesterday morning General Grant
was engaged in making proper disposition
of his troops to foil any Rebel movement.
The officers of the Brooks state that the
firing heard on Tuesday night was more
heavy and incessant than any they have heard
during Grants campaign.

INTERESTING NEWS
GEN. KELLY At MARTINSBURG,
NO HEAVY FIGHTING.
REBELS HAVE NOT RECRossED

WAsHNGroN, July 2S.-The latest authentic
intelligence is that General Kelley now occupies

there is no information that the Rebels have
recrossed into Maryland.

about 200 negroes, as near as he could judge,
who were mounted, and armed with sibres
and pistols. Among these negroes he recog-
nized a number who had been slaves in the

There is no doubt but that Colonel Mulligap
died from the effects of wounds received on sun
day. General Averill received slight wound in
the forehead ut the same time, but not sufficient
to prevent him from discharging his duties.
nThe mail steamer John Brooks has arrived
from City Point, which place she left yesterday
morning at ten o'clock. At that hour all was
quietin front tofPetersburg; on Tuesday afternoon
a movement of the Rebels was discovered, which
although not fully developed, indicated that they
were attempting to nank Butler on the right, or
were endeayoring to gain Harrson's Landing for
the purpose of getting in his rear.
The proper disposition of troops was imme-
| diatcy made 70 check them and find out their
intentions. Artillery firing commenced at the
Point of Rocks carly on the evening of Tuesday,
which continued all night. Our infantry bate
res and gunboats were said 20 be engaged, but
most of the firing was doubtless done by the
gunboats, which were shellng the banks Of the
river. Fighting was also going on near Bermuda
! Hundred, and il was reported that the Rebels
| were posted three miles from that place.
Yesterday morning, when the Brooks came
down the river, the firing seemed to have slack
ened. Early yesterday morning General Grant
was engaged in making proper dispositions of
his troops to foil any Rebel movements. Reports
brought to City Point from Richmond by re-
fugees and deserters are 10 the effect that
all the troops that can be spared from the de-
fenses of that city have been sent up the valley,
and it is believed that the forces operating in that
vicinity will number fifty thousand men of all
arms. Such refugees, however, are not in posi-
ton to have any positive means of knowledge OF
the Rebel movements, and their statements are
not by any means authoritative.

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-The Star says gen
tleman from Mil Gap, Berkeley county, Virginia,
arrived in this city this morning, and gives some
interesting particulars of the recent Rebel demon
stration towards Martinsburg and the Potomac.
He says that after the first fight near Win
chester last week. although the Rebels were de-
feated, they were not so badly used up but that
they we're able to collect considerable force.
II appears that they concentrated at Buck
creek village, Frederick county aud advanced
thence on Sunday morning early through Mil
Gap, and halted at Bunker Hill, whence Breek-
iuridge took a force and moved in the direction
of fDarkesville, and General Early, who appeared
to have command Of the whole force, moved on
the pike towards Martinsburg.
Their diyerging at Bunker Hill indicated a
movement upon HATper's Ferry, rs II was neces-
