Henderson, KY, Attacked by Guer.
rillas.

LOUISVILLE, July 23.-The Evansville, In
diana, Journal, of yesterday says:
A courier arrived there on Thursday
from Henderson, advising the military au-
thorities that Henderson was attacked by
rebels, from $50 to 700, and fighting was
going on. Our gunbOats left for Hender-
son in the evening.
The federal troops who went to Hender-
son on Wednesday to shoot two guerrilla
prisoners in retaliation for the murder Of
q union man in Henderson county, occa-
stoned this rebel raid. Certain distinguish
ed persons made great exerIions to prevent
the execution there, and Gen. Ewing post
poned it.
The citizens of Henderson left in large
numbers, the Halleck being literally crowd
ed. Persons who left later report that the
guerrillas are in the city aud the federal
troops are in line of battle awaiting an at
tack. The timely arrival of the gunboats
would save the federal troops.

A Hoax.


Some Of the New York dailics, on

apretty bold hoax. Among their Wash

Offices what purports to be despatch from
Washington giving the text Of Froe.a-
nation by the President appointing day
cffasting and pray ri in view Of the condition
Of the country, acknowledging a virtual
defeat in the recent battles in Virginia,
that the campaign was over, and winding
up with call for 400 900 more men to be
drafted on the LIST of July.
1t appears the World, Journal Of Com.
m@ce, and one or two other papers pub,
lished the proclamation in good faith, sup
posing 1t to be genuine, and accompanying
it with comments calculated to add to the
manifest dependency Of its tone.
When the news Of the heax reached
Washington, the President and Secretary
of war were so indignant that they or
dered the World and Journal Of Com

$1,000 to be offered to discover the author
