Arrival of Rebel Prisoners—Destruction of the Bridge at Falling Waters—The Pur- suit ef the Enemy. FREDERICK, July 6, p. m.—Itjs believed here that the repired. destruction of the Rebel bridges at Williamsport is a mistake, origina- ting in the fact that the bridge at Falling Wa- ters, five miles below, was destroyed. An offi- cer who was with the party which destroyed the Jatter bridge, reports that the party subse- quently started to destroy those ut Williams- port, but finding Imboden there witha large force they abandoned the enterprise. About 1,500 Rebel prisoners, including thirty. seven wagon loads of wounded, arrived here to-day by the Hagerstown pike. They inclu ded those captured by Gen. Kilpatrick. Heavy firing was heard yesterday afternoon in the direction of Monterey and Greencastle. It is reported to have been caused by our pur- suing forces pressing upon the enemy’s rear- guard, who, being strongly posted, checked the pursuit. FROM NEW ORLEANS.

There is no truth in hie supplies being cut off. yyGreat confidence is expressed that Port Hud- on will soon fail. Deserters are daily coming into Gen. Banks’ lines from the rebel army.

Coxcorn, N.H., July 4.—Over 25,000 demo- crats of this State assembled here to-day. It was one of the lurgest mass meetiugs ever held in New Hampshire. Ex-President Pieree pre- sided, and, upon taking the chair, made an ad- dress. He commenced by alluding to the day whose anniversary was being celebrated, and to the Union and the Constitution, eulogizing the wisdsm and moderation of those who formed them both. They intended to forma practicable covernment, and not a mere Uto- pian fancy. He lamented the present calamity, when, instead of a war againsta foreign toe, the country was plunged domestic dissen- sions. This, he said, was caused by the vicious intermeddling of too many of the citizens of the northern States with the constitutional rights of the southern States, and the discontented people in the southern States then co-operated with the intermeddiers in the northern States, causing @ total disregard of the Constitution by both parties. Eyen here, in the loyal States, the mailed hand of military usurpation strikes down the liberties of the people, and its foot tramples on a desecrated constitution. Even here, in these tree and independent States, it is made crim- inal for @ citiggn soldier, like the gallant Ed- gerly, ot New Hampshire, to vote according to his Conscience; like that martyr of free speech, Clement L. Vallandigham, to discuss public aifairs in Ohio. [Loud applause.) Aye, even here, the temporary agents fer the sovereign people—the transitory administrators of the government—tell us that in time of war the most arbitrary will of the President is suf- licient for us, and we must obey it. ‘The Pres- ident himself announces to us that it is trea- sonable to speak or to write otherwise than as he may prescribe. Mr. Pierce quoted from the letter ef President Lincoln to the Hon. Erastus Corning as his authority for this statement. He concluded his speech by urging modera- tion and astrict regard for all constitutional rights. He could not but believe that all the States would one day be again united. He la- mented the casualties of this fruitless war—a war prosecuted on the basis of the proclama- tion of September, 1862. His advice and hope was to rely on the moral power of the people, and not on any of the coercive instrarfentali- lies of military power. Hon. D. W. Voorhees, of Indiana, followed General Pierce in a speech, which was received with great favor, and at the mention of the name of. Vallandigham the entire andience sprang to their feet and broke forth into pro- longed cheers, f A series of resolutions were unanimonsly adopted, denouncing the policy of the admin- istration, and expressing a wish for a speedy and honorable peace. Bark Burned at Sea. New York, July 7.—The bark Reindeer, from Barbadoes on the 22d ult., reports on the 2ist an unknown bark was burned off Barba- does by her crew.

Four Thousand M Prisoners Captured by General Gregg. = Hargispvure, July 6.—Midnight.—The au- thorities here are in ecstacies over the news re- ceived to-day. The Potomac river has risen six feet within the past forty-eight hours, which must neces- sarily destroy all the fords, and there being no bridges within striking distance of Lee’s army, all means of retreat are cut off. A despatch which was received to-night by Genéral Couch states that Gen. Gregg, with a force of Genera) Pleasanton’s Cavairy had an engagement to-day at Fayetteville, in which he took 4,000 prisoners. Fayetteville is between. Cashtownand Chambersburg, on the east of South Mountain After disposing ot his prisoners, Gen. Gregg tcok an interior road, and advanced in the di- rection of Greencastle. The militia underGen.

Their position at the presen: time is not know here, Jveserters from the Rebel army, who have Hed to the mountains, continue to deliver them- selyes up in large numbers. The report that Col. Coulter, of the Eleventh Pennsylvania, was murdered in the streets of Gettysburg by a Rebel officer, is not true. A person, representing himself as General Longstreet’s Adjutant General, who was cap- tured near Hagerstown on Friday, arrived here te-day. He states that Longstreet and Lee both opposed the invasion of Maryiand and Pennsylvania, believing that it would be dis- astreus, but President Gavis would not listen to their objections, and gave the order for me advance, promising to send them 30,000 rein- forcements under Beauregard. When the Adjutant was captured he was on his way to Culpeper, to ascertain what had become of Beauregard’s troops, and was very anxious to know whether any one had had any knowledge of them. Thirty army wagons arrived at Carlisle to- day. They were captured from the enemy near Shippensburg. A gentleman who left Gettysburg lastevening states that General Longstreet is dead and within our lines. There was every indication that Lee’s army would be forced t turn and give us battle or surrender. FROM HARRISBURG. HAREISBURG, July 6.—Theembargois raise The river may now be crossed. The troops under Gen. Pierce, stationed at Bloody Run, advanced yesterday through the mountain passes about McConnelsburg, and fell upon Lee’s rear, taking three pieces of artillery, five hundred prisoners, and. about one hundred ‘wagons. Lee’s scattered troops are retreating Tapidly through the Valley, but the impression pre- yails in official circles that the fords on the Potomac are all in possession of our treops. General Smith’s militia force is pushing on rapidly, and bas now reinforced wearied troops of Meade. The militia is pouring in rapidly, and being organized and sent forward. Philadelphia is behindhand. The following order has just been posted in the Capitol, and is confirmatory of the good news: HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE Sus- QUEHANNA, HARRISEURG, July 6.—To the officer commanding of the bridge across the Susqgehanna:—Sir: Until further orders, you will |e all persons, excepting such as are suspicious, across the sot to go to Carlisle and by the way of York to ‘ttysburg.
