REPORTS PROM WASHINGTON.

HDpc0tat 20 the Evening Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, August 5.-The Star says We
have information from Hagerstown as late as s
O'Clock on Wednesday morning.
z No Rebels have made their appearance on this
side of the river in the vicinity Of Williamsport
or Hagerstown since Friday last, when Coles
Union Cavalry were driven from the town by
several hundred Rebel cavalry, who, however,
did not remain long.
Rebel picRets to be seen on the Virginia side
of the river, opposite Willamsport and the in
dications that the larger portion of the Rebel
Invading force are moving up the river westward.
The cars on the Hagerstown and ChambersbHrg
Railroad are running to Greencastle, a point
within nihe miles of Hagerstown. Telegraphic
communication has also been re-established with
Harrisburg, but there are no mails passing be-
Btweep Frederick and Hagerstown, as there are not
a sufficient number of horses in the county 10 run
Btage lines, the owners of stock having run of
4 ali that has not been gobbled up by the Rebels.
The excitement at Hagerstown has somewhat
subsided, and parties who ran away are begin
ping TO return. Business, however, has not been
resumed, and the town presents fast-day ap-
peaFance.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1864-08-05


BALTIMORE, August 5.-Fast Day was appro-
prately observed here. All business was sus-
PENDED, and the churches were well attended.
RumOrs about Hagerstown being burnt are totally
false. The Rebels are not there, and It is be-
lieved that there are none now this side of the
Potomac. Their force in the Shenandoah Valley
and vicinity, ready for another incursiOn, is be-
Heyed to be about forty thousand.
They are undoubtedly concentrating for su-
other invasion of Pennsylvania and Maryland
There has been no fight near Cumberland. There
is nothing later by the Norfolk boats. Our army
holds the same position as formerly. To-day's
Washington Chronicle publishes the following
letters -
HEADouARTERs Army OF THE PoTosAc,
August 2, A. M.-Since the unsuccessful assault
on Petersburg, nothing has occurred to mar the
quiet which succeeded It. Now and then gun
is fired, but generally speaking, the utmost tran
Quilllty prevails. The following is a semi official
report Of our losses the occasion referred 70
9th Corps, lst Division, Ledlie 687; ID Divi-
sion, Potter. 500; Sd Division, Wilcox, 900; 4th
Division, Ferrero, 100; 10th Corps, Turner's
Division, 400; 18th Corps, 200; I'd and 5th Corps,
2C0; total, 1887
A Court of Investigation is now sitting, Gene
raj Hancock presiding, which it is trusted will
throw the responsibility Of the late failure on the
light shoulders.
The rumor that the enemy had been detected
in an earnest endeaYor TO mine our works is
am informed, correct. The attempt has been
made in front Of Warren's Corps, but that Gene
raj is too skilful an engineer TO be caught nap.
ping. Hence at least three counter-sbatts have
been sunk, and when the Rebels succeed in blow
ing us up, we give the Richmond papers the
privilege of making a note of II.
Some movements of Importance are going on
here, but will not refer 10 them. You will hear
of them ere long.
HBADaUARTERs Army OF THE PorOMAC,
August ?, p. M.-Nothing OF importance has
transpired the past twenty-fOur hours. Picket
firing in front Of the 9th Corps has been kept up
almost necessarily, with some shelling at inter
walls. The enemy have been busy in repairing
their lines, and our skirmishers annoy them as
much as possible Little damage is done, how
ever, as they do most Of their work at night.
Considerable discussion is indulged in among
both officers and men as to who is responsible
for the late "fdsco," and when the Court of In
Quiry, which learn is TO convene to inquire into
the matter, has performed its duty, we shall pro-
bably learn the reason why plan that promised
so well resulted so disastrOusy. The exact
amount of our losses in the &C ion is now ascer-
tanned TO be 5640.

NEWSPAPER ACCOUNTS.

Special 10 The Evening Telegraph.
The Star says the mail steamer John Brooks
has arrived from City Point with a largo number
of passengers and the army mails, Yesterday
morning, as the steamer SpauliiHg, loaded with
troops, and having in tow barge loaded with
horses, was coming down the James river, she
was fred upon by Rebel field battery of four
pieces, stationed a little above Harrison's Land
ing.
The Spaulding put on a full head Of steam and
ran past the battery, returning the fire from two
pieces of cannon on board, belonging to the
troops. One of the Rebel shots passed through
tho wheel-house Of the Spauiding, and another
struck the barge, killing five horses, but doing
no other damage as far as known.
Several other boats which were in advance
the SpauIdiHg were also fired upon, but with what
result is not known. As the John Brooks hove in
sight Of Hanisons Landing six shots we're fired
at her from the Rebel battery, which caused the
greatest CONSERVATION among the passengers on
board, who rushed wildly about the boat, seek
ing place Of safety.
The first shot fired fell short, and others
passed over the boat in close proximity to the
heads of those on board. The Brooks, being un-
protected and having no means of replying to
the Rebel battery, hove to and put back to City
Point.
Gunboats were Immediately sent to the point
where the battery was stationed, and after a
spirited exchange of shots, the battery was
silenced. The Brooks then came down the river
under cover of one of the gunboats while others
remained and sheled the banks of the river for
some time

places Of business were closed, and the citizens
devoted themselves to Church attendance. Ser
