CixcinnaTI, July 24.—Shortly after Morgan ercesed the Muskingum yesterday he was at- tacked by the militia under Colouel Hall, with two pices of artillery. Fifteen rebels were killed aud several wownded. His progress was checked twice by Colonel Hall, but he finally escaped by the way of Cumberland, | Guernrey county, which piace he left last night at seven o'clock. This morning he crossed the Central Ohio railroad at Campbell's, but was so closely pur- sued by General Shackleford that he had not time to do damage beyond burning the depot and tesring up some of the track. At nine o'clock this morning he reached Washington, Guernsey county, where he did @ good deal ot damage, plundering, &c. Shackleford is close behind him. A courier, arrived from the vicinity of Tay- Jors ville at noon, reports that a squad of about filty men became detached from Mergin’scom- mand when he crossed the Muskinguza, prow. ling around kiiling stock. aA force of three hundred mounted men hus been sent after them.

Sensation Rumors Re; arding Napoleon's Future cy. The Paris correspondent of the New York Times, writing on the i0th inst, Pprofeases to foreshadow the future policy of Louis Napo- leon towards Mexico and the United States The Times furnishes the following summary of its correspondent’s speculations: “The commotion created by the Emperor's conversation with Messrs. Roebuck and Lind. eay, of the English Parliament, and the expla. nations to whieh thisevent has given rise, have ere ated the conviction in Paris that the Empe- ror ie quile prepared to take a more active part in American afairs than he has done hitherto. He records his conquest of Mexico as complete and final, nd is dizposed now to make it use- tul. It gives him only balf of what he deems essential. He wants control of the cotton aud surar lands cf the United States, dud he can only get through an alliance with the Southern Confederacy aud the establishment of its nomi- na) independence. The ruinors in Paris on this subject, there- fore, imply that he has enguged to aid the Tebels in reopening the Mississippi river, and that this service is to be the basis of a future arrangement by which he will retain Mexico as a French colony—temg aided in so doing by the Suuth—and the South is in return to regain poesrs-ion of the Mississippi and the States and Territories jying west of it. This is said to be the main object of Mr. Slideli’s frequent and protracted interviews with the Emperor; and the tal of Vickeburg and Pert Hudson Was the event which was expected to throw Louis Napoleon aud Jeff Davis into each other's arms, It seems quile certain that very heavy rein- forcements, including several vessele, and a large supply of artiliery, are to be sent out to | Mexico during the month of September. They can hardly be néeded for further military op- | erations in that country, for the war there is over. For whut other use they are likely tobe intended must remain as yet a matter of con- jecture. It is alsoasserted thatthe Emperor, finding that he cannot induce Exgiand to join him in hostile measures agaiust the United States, or rather, perhaps, not desirous that England shovld join him, and yet anxious to give him. self theaid of an ally is now treating with Spain on this subject, and that Spain shows a willingness to secoud the Emperor's views. The rumor adds that the Marshal O'Donnell, who is now in Paris, is, in fact, in treaty with the Emperor on this question of arranging the affairs of the Mexican Gulf for their mutual benefit. fl : The Timee farther remarks that these rumors, taken in connection with a paper prepared by the French residents of New Orleans and trans- mitted by them to the Emperor, suggests possi- bilities in the future which may yery well en- list the notice of our government and ple, The French citizens residing in New Orleans have represented to the Emperor, through his vice-consul at that port, that the action of the United States authorities there tends to bring ahcut @ collision between the blacks and the whites of that city—that in the event of such a conflict their persons and p: ‘ies would be seriously endangered, ‘and it the United States commander-in-chief of that department has taken from them all the arms with which they could defend themselves; they, therefore, Tequest that the Emperor will sissippi several vessels of war for such action as the emergency may require. The Sarrender of Vicksburg. A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, among other items of interest, gives the follow- ing particulars incident to the surrender of Vickeburg: The whole number captured at the surrender Ber WENAVs Parolea Mw ehective men. Aboat 6,000 sick and wounded are to be paroled, and it is said they are to be taken up the Wabash to Monroe, La., where the rebel convalescent camp is located. Fifteen hundred refuse to be paroled, many of whom take the oath of alle- giance, while others prefer going North as pri- soners of war rather than go intoa southern parole camp. In one brigade of Louisiana troops, numbering about twelve hundred, 336 Tefus to be paroled—most of them, officers and men, boldly averring they would not fight any more. They are mostly of that class called Frenchmen in Louisiana. ‘The gentral opinion preyails that, aside from every o‘her considerstion but the one of con- yerting the rebel army, the paroiling and kind treatment of this large number of men has been a fine stroke of policy. The rebel officers view it in the same light, and are vexed in no small degree. On the 13th instant the army began to march out on the Baldwin’s Ferry road, according to the terms of capitulation—one wagon w each regiment, fleld officers mounted with side arms and men with their knapsacks. I took @ posi- tion two miles in the rear ot Vicksburg, at the house of James Ferguson, near the Warrenton road branches, and saw the remains of theonce grand army straggle along by for two days. Hundreds asked the question, * Will your folks siop us if we goto Warrenton and try to cross the river?” We could only give them the answer, “Probably not, if you show your pa- Tole,” and hundreds soon theresfier took the Warrenton road, alwavs keeping a good look out for their officers. I am told that the woods are tull of men ail along the road to Black river, who are scattering in every direction to make the one point—“ Home.” Those men who live in Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee declare they are going bome, and only wait until the column nears the desired haven, when they will be numbered among the deser- ters. I doubt whether Gen. Pemberton reaches parole camp with ten thousand men. g# The death of 2 young female, Mary Ann Wadker, in the service of a fashionable West End milliner, Madame Elise, a French woman, trom exhaustion, caused by overwork and the breathing of impure air, has caused a sensa- tion in Londen. An investigation has proven that sixty females wereemployed to work in aroom which gave but little more than sixty teet of air to each individual. m7 The London papers are scoring severely Mr. Vice Chancellor Stuart, of the British courts, for giving a private hearing to a case or seduction and maintenance.
