THE HIGH PRIcEs.-The New York Com.
mercial Advertiser shows that prices have adj
vanced more in the last three years in this
country than they did in Great Britain during
over twenty years of the long period OF wars
ending IN 1915. A table Of the prices Of fifteen
articles and kind OF labor, taken at the Green
witch Hospital in 1870 and again in 1912, indi-
Gates an advance Of 125 per cent. During this
period the national debt had increased $4,000.
100000. Within the last three years our nation.
al debt has increased only $1,750, 600. coo. And
yet comparison OF prices in the case Of fifteen
leading articles, three of them only being i'm
ported, shows that during the last thirty months
prices have advanced on an average two hun
dred and twenty.fv per cent. on normal rates.
1t appears, moreover, that the major part of
this advance has occurred during the present
year, and indeed, within the last three months
At nearly all times these general market prices
have been considerably in advance Of the price
OF gold. At the present time the high price Of
produce is said to prevent its expectation, thus
necessitating the transmission OF more specie,
so that prod uce is dragging up gold, instead Of
the reverse as many have supposed.

A force Of rebel raiders numbering between
$50 and sou strong passed through Little Wash

Thursday night on their way towards Madison

with them and 25 prisoners, who were mounted
upon the captured horses, which were ied oy
the rebels.
The rebels passed Creighersvilie about
O'Clock, and half an hour afterwards a small
force of Union cavalry, from the West, who
crossed the Shenandoah about Conrad's store,
made their appearance at the same place, and
proceeded after the rebels. The latter gave
out that they were making their way to Cor
louisville, and thence to Richmond.
They seemed to be in hurry, having re.
ceived Information that Sheridan was between

for running trains over their road to. day. The
Gunpowder bridge is not yet repaired, but a
foot. bridge has been constructed around the
burnt portion, SO that passengers can reach
the train. The bridge was more seriously
damaged than at first reported, and the loco
motive having fallen down between the piles,
it has been found very difficult to remove it.

cavalry have made thorough examination of
the country in the vicinity, but could ind no
armed rebel anywhere.
It is supposed that some of our citizen scouts
sent out from Baltimore, were taken BY the
country people for rebels, and hence the re.
port.
