Se eS es THEY CAPTURE A LOT OF TIORSES, ALSO A FREE COLORED BOY. pee ee HOUSES SEARCHED AND PILLAGED. SS From residents of Accotink, now in the cit: we learn that on Sunday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, some thirty rebel cavalry entered that place and captured ten horses and mules and a free boy of color. The boy endeavoring to escape was shot at a number of times, but received no injury. | About 11 o'clock Monday night’ they again made their appearance, and passed through Accotink to the residence of Thomas Wright, Esq., about a mile and a half this side, and subjected the premises to search. They found alot of uniforms, lett there by some of our troops, with which they made olf. Yesterday, a tew of them were reported to be about three | miles this side of Accotink. These marauders are not guerillas, but are recognized as belong- ipg to Fitzhugh Lee’s force. AND THE COMMISSARY STORES CAPTURED ON SUNDAY. The commissary stores captured by the rebels on Sunday morning, near Edwards’ Ferry, on board the canal barges, were in charge of Capt. Granger, of the Commissary Depart. ment, who left Edwards’ Ferry on Satur- day evening, and arrived at Seneca Creek at 4 o'clock on Sunday morning and found him- self surrounded by the whole of the forces under Gens. Stuart, Fitzhugh Lee and McMa- hon, numbering about eight thousand men. The supplies consisted chiefly of hard bread, and the liebels pitched into it furiously, and in twenty minutes they had their hayersacks well filled and were in their saddles ready to moy the stores not taken for immedia e supply he ing been set on fire by order of Generaj ~¢ att ENROLLING LN THE coMaTY During the past few days #¢ police ot the | Second Precinct, compri-™# the county be- tween Rock Creek ay~ the Eastern Branch, have been employ iM enrolling the inhabi- tants within tht lines, and thus far the names | of some fit have been registered.

Our pickets haye a further up the ivanced a short distance Y¥- Many of the otlicers here expect a cayairy dash from above the city at any time. We have rumors here that Pleasanton, with his cayalry, is in the immediate rear of Lee's | army, and advancing this way. | Since writing the above, 1 learn that Pleas. | anton has attacked the enemy at Hagers with 15,000 cavalry, and the possibility the main force that threatens Harrisi: retire for a time. A number of troo:s} arrived since my last letter, and haye b: sent toeligible poins. Militia companies ar. constantly parading the streets, drilling, &e. Capt. Govd, who com uds the 1 York Cavalry, and who is constantly ing the enemy’s ad vance, has just come in from the front ,ind reposis the enemy to be falling back. Capt. Boyd will keep close to their beels, and report all their movements. There is ROW ho prospect of a ficht near the city to- day, and many of the inhabitants breathe ireer. I have just had an interview with a gentle- man well known in Harrisburg, and who has just arrived from Chambersburg, haying made dis escape from that town yesterday morning. My informant was fn Gettysburg at the tini- the Rebel troops entered the town. The place ‘Was occupied on Friday «fternoon last by tour thousand five hundred Rebels under command o! General Early; they had with them twenty | pieces of light artillery. The Rebel troops, forty-five hundred strong, encamped about one miles from Gettysburg that night. The next morning after the Occupation the rebels leit Gettysburg, after stealing every- thing they could lay their hands on. They pursued their way for York by way of Han- over. They left no troops whatever at Get- tysburg, and the same force occupied York, | My informant harnessed up his horse and wagon alter the rebels left, and proceeded in | the direction of Chambersburg. His horse was ri poe by the rebels because he was stone blind. At Stevens’ Furnace, which, by the way, belongs to Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, the rebels burned everything, and what could not be burned was destroyed. About a mile and a halt further out my informant met the out- | posts of A. P. Hill's corps. H From this point to Fayetteville the Rebels ‘were encamped all alonz the road. Every field was occupied and their encampment stretched for a distance of four or five miles. Foraging parties were being sent out in all directions, and the country was stripped of every article of use to the Rebels. When my informant had reached Stoufferville he was informed by rebels that Gen. Lee was just ahead, and that his tent was pitched in a field close at hand. The General's tent was pointed out by an orderly, | and my informant had a view of the redoutable | Rebel commander-in-chiet. When my intormant arrived at Chambers- burg the division of Gen. Picket was passing threugh the town, and they were followed by Hood's Texan Rangers. The troops comprised the rear of Gen. Lee’sarmy, with the exception of 2,000 mem who were left in Hagerstown and vicinity. j The divisions of Ewell, Longstreet, D, H. Hill, Anderson, Hood and Picket had all passed through Chambersburg a short time before my informant arrived there and while he remained. These divisions numbered 31,000 men. The whole of Lee's army is undoubtedly in the Cumberland Valley, with the exception of the 2,000 left at Hagerstown, and the troops, 4,500 in number, that eccupy York. The total rebel force now in Pennsylvania consists of about 40,500 men. * A large force of the rebels went out in the direction of McConnellsyille atter Milroy’s men, but had returned to Chambersburg. The rebels one hundred and sixty-two pieces of artillery, all known to have passed through Chambersburg; forty of them were the heaviest kind of rifled Parrotts; sixty-two were brass heavy guns, and the rest were mostly brass Napoleon guns, for the purpose of throwing shells. They hadalsoa number of rifled thin- i Mouthed guns. | By informant states that not more than fif- | teen hundred cavalry had passed through Chamtersburg, and that comprises the entire | cavalry force in the Cumberland Valley. The reels took many liberties with private | citizens atQhambersburg. They would enter j stores and pick up what they wanted. In | many instanas they would exchange their | hats fer better they saw on the heads of citizens. @7 David Funsty of Alexandria, Va, now | Colonel of the 17th Veginia Rebel Infanfry, has been elected tO repreSnt the Alexandria dis- trict in the Rebel Cong)... nto | s7 Baltimore city W388 Pmarably quict last night, and formed a strong \ntrast to the ex- citement of the previo ome, a7-Gen.

Gen. Meade occupied Hanover and York to- night, cutting the rebel lines in two The rebels are rapidly concentrating in the interior. General Couch and staff have | crossed the Susquehanna, and occupy the FROM PORT HUDSON The Rebel General Offers to Capitulate. A letter to a gentleman in this city (says the New York Times) has just been received, from which we give an.extract. It comes froma gentleman in the quartermaster's department | at Port Hudson, under Maj. Gen. Banks, and | is directed from headquarters: “Yesterday, I rode down to the water bat- teries, where I obtained a fine view of the bom- brrdment now going on at Port Hudson from river to rear. The sight was truly magnificent to look up6n, and I kept viewing it over and over again tor some time. The negroes who are engaged in the ranks here acquit them- selves very ereditably, and, when called into aetion, they fight with all the energy of despe- ration. This arises from the conviction that, it they are taken prisoners, sure and certain death awaits them, They can be handled like machines, and so warm is their patriotism ,and their desire to get at the rebels, that they are generally placed in the hottest part of the ac- ton. “The rebel General in command of the works at Port Hudson has offered to capitulate in case he be allowed to go out with sidearms and other military priyilexes. This request was, | however, refused, on the ground chieify that the rebel General (Gardiner) having formerly | been a commandant in our forces, and having j been taken a prisoner by therebels, had accepted | | a command under the Confederate States. We shouid prefer rather to bag him, and make an exumple of him, than that he shonid haye the opportunity of escaping. j “It is considered that the place must soon give in.

The news is of the highest importance. President Juarez and the Cabinet have con- cluded to evacuate the city of Mexico, believ- ing that the most effectual resistance to the French army can be made outside the wails. On the 31st of May the Government moved to San Luis Potosi, taking all the moveable fire arms and munitions of war; also, two mil- Fons of dollars trom the tressury. The torce that garrisoned the city, said to number over twenty thousand, was with- drawn to Cuerneyoca Plaza ard the interme- diate points around the city, for the purpese of carrying on a guerrilla warfare. On the first of Junea meeting was held in the city, at which the principal leaders of the Church party were present, They senta com. mission to General Forey, to offer their allegi- ance. On the fifth a French division under Gen Bazine, occupied the main entrance to the city toafford the Church party protection against the excited populace. The entire French army is expected to occu- py the capital on the 8th of June. Three newspapers have been established favoring the policy of the French. One states the oceypation of the city setéles with abso- lute certainty thatitis necessary to extirpate by the root the demoé¢ratic institution, and that there ig no longer need there should be even a dream of popular sovereignty; and dvises the contigeation of the property of all ,orderi, parties who have been or are \n arms 4: the French.
