Griflim. of the 18th Mississippi regiment, is among the number. About noon to-day another boat arrived at ‘the wharf with 547 of the prisoners, who were met at the wharf by a detachment of the 39th Massachusetts regiment, and eseorted by way of Sixth and Seventh streets te Pennsylvania avenue, and thence to the barracks at the De- | pot, where they are to be quartered tempora- | rily.

TEstare DEMONSTRATION ON THE PENNSYL- NIA LINE. The facts in reference to this demonstration ap) to be as follows; ‘he rebels. first entered Morgantowa, Va., at two o’clock on Monday, and were met by the Mayor with a flag of truce, who surren the place. The rebels remained four hours, and then retired to Ryan’s farm, six miles south, where they encamped. Persons who saw the enemy’s encampments say there were one hundred fires and twenty men around ee oa eousans men, all cavalry, no artillery or infantry. On ‘Monia evening they returned to Mor- | gantown and shot Lieutenant Gennine, of the ist Virginia loyal regiment, who was visiting his As onaturlough. They also stole fifty horses and all the available property. No wo- men or children were molested: he Rebels ‘were under the command of the guerilla Jen- kins, At 10 o’clock Tuesday evening they moved to Bloomfield, nine miles soute of Morgantown, andencamped. Various foraging and stealing arties were sentont, among others, one to ingwood, Preston county, Va. Hundreds of horses were stolen. On Tuesday night the Rebels attempted to cross Cheatriver j2ut were unable todo so .owing to the high water, and | to the fact that all the boats were on the Union side of the river. ‘There is reason to believe that the object was to secure plunder in Green and Fayette coun- tie, Pennsylvania, and to enforce the Rebel conscription law in Western Virgina. Some of the most untrustworthy reports reached Uniontown bya man who deserted his wite and three children, in order to save one horse. Thereis no doubt but the Rebels contemplated the investment of Western Virginia, and the formation of & new military base line for their operations.—Balt.

THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, CONTENUED SUCCESS OF THE GREAT MOVEMENT. iS CONGRATULATORY ORDER OF GEN. HOOKER = The following order has been issued by Gen. Hooker: Headquarters Army of the Potomac, €amp Near Falmouth, Va., April 30, 1863. General Orders No. 47. It is with heartfelt satisfaction that the Commanding General an- nounces to the army that the operation: of the last three days have determined that theenemy must cither ingloriously fly or come out from behind his defences and give us battle on our ope ground, where certain destruction awaits im, The operations of the Fifth, Eleventh and Twelfth Corps have been a succession of splendid achievements, By command of Major General Hooker: S. Wittrame, Ass’t Adj't Gen’l. The foregoing, it will be seen, is dated on Thursday last. Our acceunts of what has transpired in the three days fighting since then } are of a character to thrill every patriotic heart with joy, but we do not feel at liberty to enter into particulars. Our readers can rely upon it that the great battle of the war is now being fought by the Wnion troops under Hooker with a determined and persistent bravery that augurs conclusive results and a victory that shall sound the deat knell of the rebellion. P. S.—Since writing the above, we find that a city cotemporary has issued an extra which purports te give some particulars of the fight- ing near Fredericksburg, and excuses us from further reticence as to the facts it diyniges. Thue, it appears that, while Hooker was oc- cupying the attention of the Confederates near Chancellorsyille, Sedgwick, early Sunday morning, croseed at Fredericksburg and after a sharp contest, a good deal of it over the same } ground that Burnside occupied in his fight, carried the heights and drove the rebels (such } of them as were not bayonetedon the spot) pell mell from the intrenchments. In this attack upon the fortifications of Fredericksburg our men got in the rear of the celebrated stone wall that so effectually pro- tected the rebels in the disastrous attack under Burnside. This morning the Confederates made a des- perate attempt to retrieve the position at Fred- ericksburg, but were again repulsed. Concerning the fight made by Hooker near Chancellorsville accounts are so contradictory that we prefer to wait for more satisfactory details before giving them publicity. The fighting has been desperate, with heavy losses on both sides: and while we haye to mourn the lose of many brave officersand men, thia is the price to be paid for 8tuccess. { The reports that Gens. Sickles, Slocum, and ; Couch have been killed are not believed to be true, Certainly, Gen. Sickles was aliye last evening. ‘We regret to say that the gallant General Berry, 2d Army Corps, was killed yesterday morning in the desperate fight near Chancel- j lorsville, wheréhis division was gallantly en- gaged retrieving the ground temporarily lost by Gen Howard’s division on the preceding evening, Under the attack of an overwhelming force of tha enemy. His body arrived here this afternoon. He was struck by a Minie ball which pierced the lung® and probably the heart. The public will await further intelligence with hopefnl interest, On & field of such large dimensions it will take some time for the smoke of conflict to clear up sufficiently to afford an intel- ligent idea of the whole conflict. Bat we have that confidence in our brave army and its leader to feel sure that they will not only wrest a yictory from the enemy, but one that shall be so decisive 4s tocrush all hopes for the rebel future, It is rumored thet a telegram from the rebel Gen. Lee tothe authorities at Riehmond has been intercepted in which he calls for reinforce- ments, and announces his entire inability to hold out two days longer unless they are sent. AND STILL THEY COME, In addition to the prisoners whose arrival is noticed elsewhere, some 600 more are expected to arrive during the afternoon—making a total of up wards of 1,400. OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE CAPTURE OF OPE- LOUBAS AND BUTE A LA ROSE. The wing despatches were received at Gen. Halheck’s dffice last evening: DEPARTMENT OF THE GULF, April 23.—Maj. Gen. H. W.

Stoneman’s cavalry appears to be doing ef- fective work in the rebel rear, and is stated to have cut the Virginia Central Road and also the Fredericksburg and Richmond Road at a point near Milford Station, southwest of Chan- cellorville, tearing up some five miles of the track, and thus cutting off Lee’s communica. tion with Richmond. Stoneman is algo said to have captured a Confedetate supply train at that point. We have not heard of the trestle-work nearer to Fredericksburg being destroyed, but if any considerable extent of rail has been removed, it will cut off the communication between Fredericksburg and Richmond Sufficiently long to answer Hooker’s purpose, we take it. B.& O.R. RB. aGarn orzx.—The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is again open clear through to Wheeling, and a train will start to-night, carrying & number of soldiers West on their way to Cairo, We areinformed by Mr. Ed- monds, the passenger agent at this end of the road, that the Uheat River bridge was not des- troyed during the recent raid; and all the dain- age that was done was speedily repaired, and the road is again perfectly‘safe. : ans 877 “Chaos is ceme again” in the shape of Mexican news, First, cityof Mexico is taken by the French, and French are ground to powder by the Mexicans before Puebla; hext, they enter the town, and victorionsly possess one-third of it now..

The dates are four days later than thosealready to hand. The British Government ‘had ordered the gunboat Alexandra to be detained at Li “4 The owners and builders are to Appear befere the magistrate and havea hearing of the ease. The proceedings of Admiral Wilkes are caus. ing increased irritation in Engiand. It is also reported that Napoleon had become offended at the course of the Fegoral Gov- ernment, and intended to recall M. Mercier from Washington, but the authority for this rumor is doubtful. Liverroor, Wednesday.—The cotton sales or Monday and Tuesday amounted to 17,008 bales, including 9,000 to speculators and ex- porters. The market is steady at unchanged rates. Trade at Manchester was irregular, with am upward tendency. Breadstufts quiet and steady; corn advaa- cing; provisions dull. Lonpon, Wednesday.—Consols closed at 92% a93 for money. FROM MISSOURI- —»_——_. LAST OF THE REBEL DEMONSTRATION AGAINST CAPR GIRARDEAU, ——-_—_—__ | AFTER SEVERE LOSS, THEY ESCAPH ACROSS i WHITE WATER RIVER. ists Sor Sr. Louis, May 4.— Advices from Cape Girardean say that the rebels, under General Marmaduke, after haying their rear assailed twice and suffering severe loss, finally escaped across White Water river, burning all the bridges behind them, and disappearing by va- rious roads im the direction of Chalk Bluffs, @@ the Arkansas line. The result of this rai@ to the rebels is, repeated humiliations, disas- ters, and cowardly flight before greatly ia- ferior numbers. LOCAL NEWS. A Rior Ertween Wuitxs axp BLacks.— Yesterday afternoon, a riot oecurred on the Island, which, for a time, caused great excite. ment, and called together a large number af persons. From what we can learn it originated by some boys in the neighborhood of D street south and the canal stoning some colored peo- ple, and a muss ensued, when some soldiers passing took the part of the children and ral- lied on the colored people, but were driven off. A number of citizens then joined the soldiers, and they made after the colored men, who had by this time reached the neighborhood of the Virginia avenue bridge; and a contraband named Ross was caught and badly beaten, having his jaw bone broken. The police here made their appearance, and the assailants ran off. Another party of whites then proceeded to the corner of Virginia avenue and Third street, where they again attacked the blacks, but on the appearance of the police the rioters started torun and after a long chase (in which a crowd of citizens took part) were captured and taken to the Tenth Precinet station-house, and Jus- tice Stratton made the following disposition of them :—William Roach, Daniel Cole, Andrew Haley, and Thomas Hill were fined $2.50 each, and John Buckley was dismissed. Considerable excitement existed around the station-house. A large number of citizens col- lected, blocking up the street completely, and threats of mobbing the colored Methodist Zion Church were made, in consequence of whicha large force of the police were held in readiness, but aside from a disturbance of the meeting by one of their own number (Shadrack Cooper, who was taken fo the station and fined 35) ne ne disorder occurred.
