WASHINGTON, 10th.
The Secretary Of State has received the
following dispatch from Gen. Wallace;

BALTIMORE, 10Th, 9 am.
The excitement is intense.th this morning.
Union citizens have been arriving ali
night; at o'clock this morning the alarm
bells were rung; parties headed by fife
and drum are moving through town to
man the defensive works, Our citizens
are turning out with spirit and manifest
determination to do their utmost to de-
fend the city,
Enemy are new reported to be at SEicott's
Mills, Gen. Wallace is falling back towards this
city. Telegraph however is still working to
Marrottsvie, which is beyond Elliestt's Mills, so
that report OF the rebels being there is prtma-
ture. Their scouts however are believed to have
been within Is miles of the city. We are still
not without good hope Of beiug able to prevent
the entrance OF the rebels into this city. The Sc
cessionists who have property and stocks Of
goods on hand here are by no means
pleaoed at the prospect of exchanging
their goods for Rebel money. They much
prefer Greenbacks, notwithstanding their
sympathy with Sonth.

The export duty on rags used for the
manufacture of paper is in France twenty
five dollars per ton, and in Germany
torty-fve dollars per ton. The conse-
quence is that the manufacturers of paper
inthose countries, having the protection in
amount undersell the British manufactu-
rers, who, besides, have to pay an import
duty of from twenty-five to thirty per cent
to their own Government

The party of Rebels at Reistertown are
said to be small body. They are stealing
cattle and horses. Report says they have
struck the Northern Central R. R., and
burned a bridge. Gen. Wallace, at last ad-
vices, was 16 miles from this city, falling
back with force of fresh troops covering
his rear. The enemy were not supposed to
be following him; at least they were not
to be seen on the road over which he is
retreating. His Artillery is reported safe.

The rebels now occupy Frederick but in
what force is not positively known Re

lv well founded, that another rebel force
has crossed the Potomac near Edmond

pJ- Hunt up the stragglers, says the Charles
ton Courier, the skulkers, the dodgers, the men
who are playing all pretcnces under cover of de-
tails and unlimited furloughs, and send them TO
the army. Drive off those who 60 about predict
ing evil and disaster. and who ready to submit.
This should be uhe duty of all good citizens
who are lawfully at home, and see thar those who
are liable perform their duty.
The women have done well and can do more in
this way
Any wife, sister, daughter or sweetheart who
wishes furlough visit from husband, brother,
father or beau, who has been faithful to his post,
has only to escort into camp a straagler or a re-
turning and penitent prodigal.
Persevere gentle matrons and maidens in your
good works aud efforts. Stir up the laggards with
needles or bodkiDs, or persuade them to duty with
the broomstick.
Let it be known that the fair maids now await
ing the calls of Hymen will never accept an invita-
ton to bis bower if it proceeds from bastard and
a laggard.
