Latest from the last Rebel Raid,
New YORK, July 27.

NEW DIRK, july II.
The New York Iribme's special from
Harper's Ferry, Goth, says: 'The statement
IN the Baltimore american of to-day that
Hunters force had met with disaster, and
that Generals Kelly and Avervill were killed
Is untrue. General Crook, who was in com
mand at Winchester, retired in good order
before asuperior force after a severe fight
bringing all his artillery off the field. A
portion Of the cavalry was stampeded, but
have since been organized. Every prep
aratlon has been made to give the rebels a
warm reception if they should cross the Po-
tomac. Information received from a trust
worthy source places their numbers at
about $4,000 There is no truth in the state
ment that Hill and Longstreet are with
them. 1t is Early's command returning,
having heard that the 9th and 10th Corps
had desisted from the pursuit.
The New York Irabune'S Washington spe
cial says: Colonel Mulligan is wounded
and prisoner.
''The reports from the valley create no
excitement here. The report about Long
street is not believed,
The HerGLd'S Washington special says
Washington and Baltimore are not consid-
cred in any danger from the present move
ment, and unless the rebel force is much
larger than there is any reason to suppose
its career will be short one. General
Wright has been assigned to the command
of the 9th and 18th corps. General Rick
cts has command of the 9th corps
The HeraJd'S Baltimore dispatch of the
Goth, 9o'clock at night, says eat last ac-
counts General Crook had succeeded il
driving the advance of the enemy, which
was pushing north, back to Bunker Hill, II
miles south of Martinsburg. Rumors are
now current of a fight near Harper's Ferry
in which Hunter was badly worsted. They
are very indefinite, however"
The New York Times says. $50 far az

General Grants Campaign.

The Chicago Journal of Tuesday says
Elk Governor Ra msay, United States Sen
ator from Minnesota, passed through this
city, en- route for home, yesterday. having
since the adjournment of Congress. been ON
visit to the army before Petersburg, He
gives a very encouraging account of the sit
uation and the prospects He visited our
entire lines, and without exception found
the officers and the men full of hope and
confidence. They feel sure that their pres
ent campaign will result not only in the
capture Of Petersburg and Richmond, but,
what is more important, in the destruction
of Lees army, which is the main object of
present operations. Everything appears
satisfactory in our position near Petersburg,
and the army is not idle. At presentsap-
ping and mining are the order of the day

Governor Ramsay had conversations with
General Grant, who told him to request the
people of the North to possess their souls
in patience"--that all will come out right
that his success is beyond doubt-that his
grand plan has been successfully carried out
SO far, and is certain 70 be successful in the
end. General Grant has never felt greater
confidence Of success than he feels now
But it is stupendous work he has before
him and, the people must not be unreason-
able in their anticipations F; they must not
expect that to be done in week which
cannot be done in month but if they will
but have patti ence, they will in due time be
repaid for the exercise of that virtue
by the splendid success that will crown the
efforts of the army of the Potomac to over
whelm the chief army of the rebellion. The
destruction of Lees army will be almost
equal to the suppression of the rebellion.
The people, therefore, can afford to wait, if
that achiev ement is likely to result from the
present apparent inactivity-for it is more
apparent than real,

to appreciate that the mere capture of

SoHUYLKILL HAVEN, Pa, July "a.
An accident occurred at Phoenix Collierv
on Saturday evening, which resulted in the
instant killing of p men. They were on a
slope car, coming out of the mines from
their work, and when near he top of the
slope the chain broke, letting the car run
back distance of 600 feet on a slope of 70
degrees, killing all who were in the car.

MEssRs EDITORS:
The Hjtwaukee Sentinel, gives the news
item about the sending lot of rebel women
from Louisville, out of the country, and ap-
ponds to it a comment as follows;
cit ought to be sufficient cause to war
rant a war of this kind on women"
The Sentinel seems to have an idea thai
women enjoy immunities in the violation Of
law or military orders, while men do not +;
that women are privileged to commit trea-
sonable offences against the government
solely because they are women. If such be
not the Sentinels ruling idea, then its query
in this instance about ), ao@r on aoomen," is
absurd. Neither men or women should be
sent beyond military lines without just cause
but we are not aware that the government,
has made or tolerated any discriminating rule
allowing women to commit reasonable acts,
for which menarei punishable; criticisms on
the acts of the government or its subord
nate officers, are proper enough in their
place, but carping without cause should be
left to the vocation of copperheads.

The first volume of the long looked for
''American Conflict, or History Of the Great
Rebellion" by Horace Greedy (Western
publishers, Geo & c. w. Sherwood, Chica
go), has made its appearance. We have
upon several occasions expressed our views
as to the value of this work. 1t is only nee
essary to reiterate that it is one Of the most
valuable additions to the war literature, and
while 1t will prove an invaluable aid to the
future historlon, it is none the less replete
with interest to all of the present day, as
giving clear and forcibe narrative Of the
causes of the war and incidents of the slave
monger's rebellion. 1t is published in sew
eral styles of binding, to suit purchasers
tastes, and mechanically, in all respects
biuding, plates, and letter-press-is model
of good taste Mr.. A. J. Pease Of Salem
is canvassing the County, and will supply
all who wish to obtain this valuable work.

We call the attention of our readers to the
suggestions as being just as applicable here
as in New York.
Curranfs for the Soldiers. = We
have before us a specimen Of what for want
of better name we will call Currant Leath
Ell prepared by benevolent lady i'll Orange
County. n. Y. for the use of sick in hospi-
tails. 1t is made as follows: seven pounds
of currants and one pound sugar: cook till
the currants are thoroughly broken up,
then strain through a colander and boil the
strained liquid down to thick syrup, then
add the currants left on the colander, and
cook as much as possible without burning
Spread the conserve thus prepared on plates
or other shallow dishes, and set in the sun,
OrdinariariIy in one days drying the mass
may be cut through, and turned to dry the
under side. Then drying should be con
tinued until the pieces will not stick togeth-
er if laid one upon another. The same pro-
cess may be followed with sour cherries and
doubtless with blackberries. A few rasp-
berries may be added to the currants to
give flavor A piece Of this may be held
in themouth of the patient or it may treat
ed with water to make cooling drink. In
either case it is far preferable TO jellies, as
it gives all the refreshing acidity Of the
fresh fruit without cloying with sugar.
Those who have been deferred from preser-
wing fruits by the high price of sugar will
find that they can make a more acceptable
article with little sugar than if they follow
ed the old pound for pound rule. Now is
the time for you, the reader if you have cur
rants wasting on the bushes to treat

throat will be refreshed enough to thank
you.

Petersburg and Richmond would be worth
but little to US, unless Lees army be at the
same time either captured or destroyed.
General Grant could capture Petersburg any
day, if he should so elect but it would be
at a useless and needless sacrifice of life.
The same is the fact as regards Richmond.
By heavy sacrifice of life, he could very
soon get possession of the rebel capital. But
that is not his object. Lees army is what
he is after, and he believes he will end its
career as the result of the present campaign.
Let us share his confidence, and patiently
wait on the progress of events
