R8~D1sHoNEsT EMPLoYEEs,-A westward
bound freight train was few days ago
thrown from the track of the Cleveland
and Pittsburgh Railroad, near Dry Run,
about seven miles from Wellsvile, Ohio,
and several of the cars badly wrecked. A
train was dispatched to Dry Ron to lock
after the wreck, and during the morning it
was removed to a switch at some distance
to get out of the way of the passenger
train, the boss of the track hands being
left in charge of the goods. Upon the re-
turn of the train it was noticed that some
of the goods were missing and search was
made, which resulted in finding about two
thousand dollars worth of cloth and draw
ers, buried in the sand near by, while at
the house of q farmer in the neghberhood
some of the goods were also found. The
boss and five of his men were arrested, and
are under bail for larceny.

ST. LOUIS, July lsth.-Despatohes from
Col. Ford, at Kansas city, to headquarters
here, says he has just returned from Platte
and Clay counties. His command is now
at Liberty, where he would Immediately
return. Thornton's rebels are broken into
small bands aud scattered through the
country. Twenty four of them were killed.
Col. Ford suggests that the citizens of
Platte and Clay counties be not armed, as
nine. tenths of them are dis,oyal and have
assisted Thornton to raise his force aud
give him all information, keeping every
thing from our troops Col. Ford notified
the prominent citizens of these Counties
that hereafter they will be held steictIy &C
countable for the conduct of the guer-
rillas and called a meeting of the ciu-
zens and rebel symPathizers at Liberty
where be will tell them how they can save
their counties from devastation. Ford
captured 200 n. Y. muskets 10 the hands
OF the guerrillBs aud burned a warehouse
containing 100 more with considerable
ammunition and captured battle flag
made by the ladies of Platte city.
Gen. Rosecrans has issued an address to
the people of North West Missouri, stating
that they have deceived him; that while
they promised to preserve peace, and aid
the government, they have allowed guer-
rillas to live and recruit upon them, aud
that the arms and ammunition put in their
hands for the preservation OF public safety
have been used TO destroy it. He tells
them nothing is now lett for them TO do but
to wholly renounce and help to exterminate
the common enemy, or their county will
become a desolatiou.
All loyal aud law abiding citizens must
promptly combine with the military author
tiles in giving all possible aid, assistance,
and information, or suffer the violence
which must follow the liberation of a spe-
cies of warfare which fuds no parallel
even in our Indian wars.

Afternoon Report.
Pursuit of the Rebel Raiders Aban
dOned.

New YORK, July l8.-A special to the
Tribune, dated Washington l7th, says fur
Their pursuit of the rebel raiders has been
abandoned, and theywill probably succeed
in reaching LynchburgwiLh their plumber in
safety, unless interrupted between Stauu-
ton and Lynchburg. Persons residing
near the Gap say their train, composed Of
all sorts of vehicles and over a mile long,
filled with every variety of plumber and
over 1000 head of horses, cattle, mules and
large droves of sheep and hogs, were sent
through the Gap by the rebels previous to
their retreat and were pastured 10 the
meadows along the river until the with
drawal of the main body commenced,
which was early yesterday morning
Several hundred wounded in carriages and
ambulances were brought through the
Gap, among them one Brigsdier and seve-
raj Colonies, besides a number OF officers
of inferior grades, most of them wounded
in the battle of Monocacy.
The Government have been put in poe
session of the strength of the force that
invaded Maryland. 1t was composed of
| infantry, artillery and cavalry. The artil-
lery known to have been brought here by
| the rebels, is a mounted rife battery with
cavalry and two parks with the infantry
| columns, one of II guns and one of 10
The mounted battery probably contained
6 pieces, the others each. They will
altogether comprise at least 1900 men.
Worlds special from Washington 18th,
says: No decisive news of the pursuit of
the rebels forces lately threatening this
city. II seems to begenerally conceded that
they have made good their escape. The
rebel officers have acknowledged their loss
at Monocacy over l 900 killed and wound
ed, and have about 500 most of them from
the charge of the Brigade of the 9th corps.
The Colonies of the 69th and 18th Geor-
gia were killed in the charge.
Marshal Bonifant, of Maryland, was
sent word to-day at Washington that there
was rebel cavalry force at New Port
Mills, this side of the Potomac.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad will be
in running order as far as Wheeling to-
morrow.
Only one spar of the Bridge across the
Shenandoah at EarPtr's Ferry was de-
stroyed and that was repaired before the en-
my had fairly got away.
The paymaster leaves here tomorrow
with money TO pay of several Brigades in
the I'd aud 9th corps

RBsUN sFRoKE-It is a curious fact
that mental depression has great effect in
inducing stroke. We will give two
instances. During the rainy season of
1857, body of European troops, VIII o wer?
engaged in supervising the Sepoy mutiny,
encountered an overwhelming force and
met with reverse. They had been for
weeks exposed to the sun at all hours of
the day, without losing man. But iu
that retreat the dispirited men fell by
scores, never to rise again, urder the burn
ing influence of the solar rays. Again, a
much-resPected police Sergeant in CAL
cutta, who had been for years in India,
and accustomed to brave the sun in all
seasons, received the intelligence of his
Wife's sudden death. As he sorrowfuIly
crossed the barrack- yard, letter in hand
to communicate the sad news to his su
