FROM PHILADELPHIA.

L IhtLADELkhIAy L.
The telegraph between here and Baltimore
is said to be intercepted, but we have just re-
ceive a report that the combined forces Of
Hunter and Wallace are fighting and driving
the Rebels. The 18th, Badly Smiths my
corps, has arrived here thisA NJ
PHILADELPHIA, July IL.
Rebel got possession of the wires at Mac
nolis about IA miles from Baltimore, and in
tercepted large number of dispatches among
them one from Secretary Stanton to G eneral
Cadwallader.
We have no communication with Washing
ton, and there is the greatest excitement here.
PHILADELPHIA, July IL.
The Bulletin has a special from Wilmington
Delaware, which says that the report of the
burning of bridge over Gunpowder river by
the rebels is not be lieved The mansion of
General Cadwellade at Magnolia was burned
by the Rebels this morning. - q
PHILADELPHIA, July &C P. NJ.
A dispatch received from the conductor
of the second train captured says that
Gunpowder Bridge has been destroyed
This information he .rceiveed from Rebels.
After firing the train they started it back,
and it went half way over the bridge when
it stopped, causing the bridge to take fire
1t is now ascertained that two trains were
destroyed upon the Philadelphia, Will
mington and Baltimore Railroad. Engi-
neers of both trains escaped. One of
them, however, was first robbed of his
money and clothing except his shirt and
pants. The fireman was shot dead. The
mail on each train was taken from the car
before the passengers and devided among
the captors. Nothing has been heard yet
of the Express car, but of course the
thieves did not overlook it. No appre-
hension need be felt in regard to the reg
ular train which left Philadelphia this
morning and the extra train which left at
later hour, as they cannot 90 -arther
than this side of the Susquehannah.
62 men came ashore at Cape Island New
Jersey, being the crew of the Schooner
Margaret F. Davis, from Port ROYAL, for
New York, and four barks the Greenland
loaded with coal bound to Pensacola
The General Perry for Fort Monroe
with hay and ice, landed with ballast from
n. o. for Philadelphia. All of the men
were brought in by schooner Howard,
freighted with fruit for New York. She
was released by giving bond for S6O, 900,
and bringing the captured men to Cape
Island.
The barque Tolerada Captain winslow,
of New Bedford, left Tolmalain, Chill, April
l4th, bound home, with 1900 barrels of oil.
She was captured by the Florida, on the
evening of July 8th, and burned. All
hands were taken on the Florida.
The telegraph south of this point is bad
, ly damaged, but is not thought the rail
road is injured to any great extent. Major
General Franklin was captured on the 10th.
Trains were destroyed at Magnolia. Gen.
Gilmore announced his inten ion of going
to Baltimore by stealth o-night Artillery
firing has been heard since 8 P. NJ. in
south west direction, perhaps at Breach
River.
PHILADELPHIA, July I1--IO P. NJ.
A train from here this morning went as
far as Perrymansville, and then returned.
The Il o'clock train went only to Whining
ton. There were no signs of Rebels at the
former place. The return of the trains was
merely precautionary.
Our gunboats have commenced firing en-
on rebels on Bush River, the river nearest
to Baltimore. The second train was about
. passing over Gunpowder Bridge, when it
backed out and was then captured.
\ LATER-0ur guhboats drove the Rebels
off from Bush River, and reeaptured one of
\ our engines. There are yet some doubts
of the entire destruction of Gunpowder
Bridge. There is possibility of telegraph
ic communication being suspended tonight
with Baltimore -
