They are supposed to be muking adash for the Pennsylvania Central Tailroud, and have already seized a large num- ber of horses. [RECONR goede ne Pui aprirnia, Oct. 13.—The nnsylvania Railrond Company have received a d itch trom an irresponsible source, conveying infor- mation, «aid to be from a reliable itleman, of the same nature as the Inquirer's dispatch, re- lative to another invasion, but they have re- ceived no confirmation from any official on the road, and place no confidencein it. The rumor is supposed by some to be gotten up for politi- cal purposes. (THIRD DISPATCH.) Hanrrisnene, Oct. 13.—Goy. Curtin has just received information dated Perryville, Juni- ata county, rom a reliable gentleman of county, stating that a rebel force of 30,000 men inade their appearance within eight miles of Concord, Franklin county, last night, at 12 o'clock, and bad carried off 1,500 horses. The farmers of Franklin county are moving all their stock tte Perry county. The rebels are supposed to be making for the Pennsylvania Central Railroad. LATER. Exaggerated and Uniounded Rumors. HaRRisevene, Oet. 13—p. m.—Since my last dispatch, Colonel McClure telegraphs to Goy. Curtin the following :—* We have thousands of rumors, but they are entirely unfounded. To approach Concord the Pebels must cross at Lon- don, ten miles west from here, on the pike, and We bave news from there hourly. Concord is at the head of the pass to the vall+y, and to en- ter it they must go by Myersburg and London, or cross Cove Mountain at London and Farrets- burg, and we could not be without receiving the information. The story is entirely un- founded, and results from an exaggeration of the rumors of the rebel cavalry being at St. Thomas on Friday night. About sixty of their cavalry are just reported by one of our officers to be in the neighborhood of Fayettesville, six miles east, on theturnpike They seem to have been seattered, and are retreating. Weare amply prepared for them, and every one appearmg will be fired at. Col. Grant is here with two Vermont regiments and artillery,” STILL LATER. The following dispatch has since been re- ceived from Col, McC! CHAMBERSBURG. Oct. 13, 10 a.m.—Mr. Camp, of Stevens’ Furnace, has just sent a messenger with information that the rebel cavalry were at Cashtown, at the foot of South Mountain, in Adams county. They are moving in consider- able force. They have been driven back from | the Potomae and are trying toescape. Every efort is being made to cut thei off here and at Mercersburg, but they have Logan, a man from Franklin county. with them, a superior bide, and may escape. Our citizens all have and will join the troops in gutting them s: “The patch jnst received sa enemy are at Cashtown, Adams county They may attempt to pass by the mountain road south, perhaps by the Shippensburg road, and propably by Greencastle.” (This di ch evideutly refers to the raid of Friday and urday.) ; THE WAR IN KENTUCKY. !
