By some it is supposed that the | Tebels really design making & diversion in this direction, to frustrate Grant's campaign. | A dispatch received ffm an officer of the | Baitimore 8nd Ohio Railroad Company, dated July 4, says: | « We bave no idea of the extent of the ene- my’s force. i The cavalry is commanded by Stuart's suc- cessor, Ransom, and infantry probably by Early. | Sigel and the bulk ot his force is safe, in- { cluding Gen. Mulligan’s brigade of Lexington | fame. They have all crossed the Potomac at | Shepherdstown. and are moving to protect Harper's Ferry, where Gen. Weber commands & email force. Our forces tought spiritedly, but were flanked in every direction. No report of damage to railroad or Govern- ment property yet. | The enemy is believed to have reached | Bet town this morning. Itis believed there that a heavy raid is designed into the interior of Pennsylvania. Hunter is moving, however, in the right di- Tection, and other plans are on foot to meetthe | case. We are prepared to restore the raiiroad at a TMement’s notice, should it be injured. Our premptness and success in this will be again vindicated. | Considerabie fighting yesterday {Sunasy) by Sigel’s torces, but no loss reported. ‘ The Latest. } Bacrtmore, July 5.—The latest from the invasion is up to nineo’clock this morning. j Nothing later has been received from the points | mentioned in yesterday's dispatch.

Grant—The Rebel Raid ou Martinsburg, etc. eer Wasuinoton, July 3—9 p. w. To Major General Diz, New York: The following telegram, dated to-day, at Marietta, Georgia, was received this evening from Gen. Sherman, giving the successful re- sult of the flanking operations in progress tor seme days back. The movement on our right caused the enemy to evacuate. We occupied Kene- saw at daylight, aud Marietta at 8:30 a.m. Thomas is moving down the main road toward the Chattahoochee; McPherson toward the mouth of the Nickajak, on the Sandtown Toac; our cavalry is on the extreme flanks. ‘Whether the enemy will halt this side ot Ohat- taboochee or not will soon be known. Marietta is almost entirely abandoned by its inhabitants, and more than a mile of the railroad iron has been removed between the town and the foot of the Kenesaw. A dispatch from General Grant’s headquar- ters, dated at 9 o’clock this morning, gives the Sars result of General Wilson’s opera- Sixty miles of railroad were thoroughly de- Danville road, General Wilson reports, could not be repaired in less than forty days, even if all the material were on hand. He has destroyed ail the blacksmith shops where the rails might be straightened, and all the mills where scantiing for sleepers could be sawed. a, miles of the Southside road were de- ‘oe. ilson browght in about 400 negroes and many of the vast number of horses and mules gathered by his forces. He rte thatthe rebels slaughtered with- out mercy the negroes they retook. Wilson's joss of property is asmali wagon train, used | to carry ammunition, his ambulance train,and twelve cannon. The norses of the artillery and ‘wagons were generally brought off. Of the capnon, two were removed .rom the carriages, the wheels of which were broken and the guns thrown into the water, and one | other gun had been disabled by a rebel shot, breaking the trunnions before it was aban- doned. He estimates his total loss at from 750 to 1,000 men, including those lost from Kautz’ division. | A rebel force made its appearance near Mar- | tinsourg this morning. and were, at last ac- | counts, destroying the rsilroad and advancing om Martinsburg. The reports received as yet re too confused and conilicting to determine | the magnitude of the force or the ex‘ent of the operations. Epwry M. Stanton, Secretary of War. THE REPORTED RAID, Reporte are conflicting from up river con- cerning the rebel movements, and it is doubtfal if any considerable number of the enemy has croseed the Potomac at sll. It is undoubtedly a mere raiding party of in- considerable numbers, not ligely to tarry long at any point where it may be lable to capture. &7 The Senate has confirmed the nomination of Gen. Gilmore as Major General. TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. THE PIRATE ALABAMA SUNK BY THE U.S STEAMER KEARSAGE.

CONGRESSIONAL. —_—>_—_ Mowpar, July 4. SEmate.—The Senate met at 9 o'clock. Mr. Sherman called up the House bill to levy a special income tax of five per cent., colleeta- ble in November next, for paying the boudties and expences of draft. The bill was passed—yeas 27, nays 9. Mr. Harris celled up the House bill to me: ulate the sessions of the circuit and district courts of the northern district of New. York, the consideration of which was left urffinished on Saturday night. The bill was finally passed. Mr. Sprague asked for and obtained consent to make a personal explanation. He referred toacharge made by Mr Bisir a few. weeks ago, in the House, claiming to be a member of that boay, that be (Mr. Sprague) had made $2,000,000. under permits from the Treasury to trade in cotton in the rebel States. He did not consider it necessary to notice what was said | by Mr. Blair, or the brother of Mr. Blair, except that lies, if unconttadicted, come to be accepted as truth. He dented that he had ever enjoyed any such_privileges— though in 1861 @ had, at Tr. OUhase’s instance, recommended a person who had proved faithful, to collect and take eharge of the large amountof cotton found on plantations in the vicinity of Port Royal. Mr. Chase had | Dever given any permits except those author- ized by law, and he himself had never received benefits to theextentofa mill. After this war commenced he responded to the call of the President, and enlisted Rhode Island in sup- port of the Government, and came into the field, and had given over the management of the business in which he had been interested to others, and, so far as he knew, they had secured no advantages from any officer of the Grovern- ment. Having said this much, he shouid henceforth not notice slanders from the same source. On motion of Mr. Sherman, a joint resolu- tion was adopted providing for-the appoint- ment of a commissioner upon the subject of raising revenue by taxation. By it the Secre- tary of the Treasury is authorized to appoint three commissioners to inquire and report as to the best mode of imposing additional taxa- tion to supply the wants of the Government having regard tothe sources from which the same may be desired, and the commissioners are to have power to take testimony, &c. Mr. Hendricks called RP the House bill to pay the Congressional Globe and purchase back copies thereof, urging its passage as ab- solve necessary to continue that valnable work, Mr. Sherman offered his resolution of nego- tiating with the heirs of John C. Rives for the | building and materials of the Globe establish- ment, and having the printing of debates done hereafter in the Government printing office, as & substitute tor the bill; but it was rejected. The House bill was then passed—yeas 27, days &. On motion of Mr. Wilson, the joint resolution to increase the compensation of matrons in hos- pitals was passed. The Senate at 14 o'clock went into executive session. On coming out at twenty minutes past 12 o’clock, it was learned that a regolution was passed extending the session to 12% o'clock, which was sent to the Honse, and speedily a message was returned, saying the House had concurred therein. Mr. Clark, the President pro tem. of the Sen- ate, then rose and said that the time fixed by the two branches of Congress for adjournment haying arrived, he wished the Senators a | pleasant retarn to their homes, and hoped that before they should agein meet, the clouds which now lowered upon the political hori- zon would be lifted, and the storm be receding. And now, said he, I do declare the Senate ad- journed without day. The members speedily separated. Hovss.—No bills of especial public import- ance was passed, the proceedings being con- fined to closing up the unfinished business. Mr. Washburne, of Miinou, offered a resolu- tion tendering the thanks of Congress to the of- | ficers and privates of the Army and Navy, for their bravery in the field. He made a brief speech, and in conclusion expressed the hope that on assembling next session, they wonld be able tocongratulate one another on the suppression of the rebellion. ill be a meeting of the i E ‘ittee of the mew school- r ct, THIS ( Puestey) EVB- NING at7 o’clock, at the Mayor's Office.

The Navy Department has its big flag ou to-day in honor of the destruction of the pirata’ eruiser Alabama, by the plucky U.S, sloop-ot- war Kearsoge. The Kearsage is a steamsloop of 1,031 tops, and hasan armament of two 1 inch shell guns, throwing 261 pounds me! one W-pound rifle pivot, throwing 30 pound: and two light 32-pounders, throwing 61 pounds; making & total of five guns, throwing 355 ds metal The Alabama is a vessel of 1,150 tons, and had the following armament: One 100-pound rifle pivot, throwing 100 pounds; one pivot, throwing 61 pounds; six heavy 3- pounders, throwing 192 pounds; and one 2- pound howitzer, throwing 21 pourttis; making a ion of nine guns, throwing 390 pounds of metal. It will be seen that the Alabama is 119 tons larger than the Kearsage, and throws 22 pounds more weight of metal. The Kearsage was. commanded b: Winslow, of Massachusetts. THE PIRATE SEMMES’ OWN REPORT OF THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ALABAMA. The Navy Department has received a dis- patch from New York giving the following report made by the pirate Captain Semmes, concerning the loss of his vessel. His allegation that the Kearsage fired on the Alabama after her flag was down, and did not send boats to save the crew of the latter ig refuted by the other accounts published: “The pirate Semmes, in official reports, says that in an hour and ten minutes the Alabama was found to be in a sinking condition, the en- emy’s shells haying exploded on her sides and between decks. For & few moments he had Hopes of reaching the French coast, but the ship filled rapidly and the furnace fires were extinguished. Captain Semmes says: “I now hauled down colors to prevent the further destruction of life, and dispatched a boat to inform the enemy of our condition. Although we were now but tour hundred yards from each other, the enemy fired at me five times after my celors had been struck. It is charitable to suppose that a ship of war of a Christian natioa could not haye done this intentionally. Some twenty minutes after my furnace fires had been extinguished, and the ship being on the point of sinking, every man, in obedience to a previous order which had been given to the crew, jumped overboard and endeavored to save himself. “There was no appearance of any boats com- ing from the enemy after the ship went down. 1t was fortunate for myself. I thus escaped to the shelter of the neutral flag on nba Lancaster’s yacht, Deerhound, together with about forty men.” NAVAL CAPTURES. Admiral Lee, commanding North Atlantic Blockading squadron, in a dispatch tothe Navy Department, under date of July 1st, stys that since July 24, 1563, 42 steamers have been cap- tared or destroyed by the blockaders of his vessels at 300 tons; 8d assuming the eapacity of an army wagon at one ton, there has been a loss inflicted on the rebel supply system equivalent to the capture or destruction of a train of twelve thousand six hundred wagons. The Department has received a commuanica- tion trom Admiral Dahigren annouacing the capture at the sloop Julia by the U. S, steamer Nipsie, on the 27th ot June, off Sapelo Sound. Her cargo consists of ninety bags of salt, A communication has also been received an- nouncing the destruction of the English steamer Rose, of London, bound from Nassau, N. P., by the U.S.steamer Wamsutta, on shore off Poly’s Isiand, S. ©. When first discovered she was attempting to escape, andin doing so ‘was run ashore. The crew of about twenty made their escape. It was only after repeated efforts to get her offand night coming on that she was fired. She had no cargoof any im- portance on board, and it is thought it had been sent ashore in small boats while iaying off the coast. FROM THE FRONT. puviis en Grant Summons the City of Petersburg to Surrender. risk Work Anticipated. Passengers on the mailboat Highland Light report that day before yesterday Grant sent a Petersburg, but the answer was not known at City Point when the Highland Light left. It was believed if the demand was not complied with that a reasonable time would be allowed for the removal of the women and children before the town was attacked. Appearances at the front indicated lively work when the Highiand Light left, andit was thought not improbable that Grant was plan- ning a Fourth of July surprise for the rebels. A SCARE, Parties who arrived here this morning from Baltimore state that secesh is busy there incul- cating scary reports, one being to the effect that the rebel force up riyer consists of Brackin- ridge’s, Buckner’s and Early’s divisions, Retugees from Hagerstown, Boonsboro, and Middletown are beginning to arrive at Balti- more in considerable numbers, many of them having walked the whcle way. They report much excitement éxisting throughout the west- ern counties of the State more on account of pre- vious invasions than from anything serjously threatening now. Theturnmpike road leading from Hagerstown to Baltimore 1s lined with wagons and teams belonging to scary citizens, who are endeavoring to run off their stock as speedily as possible in dread that the reported rebel raid may prove true and their previous experiences in the way of lossof stock: be re- peated. ARRIVAL OF SICK AND WOUNDED, The steamer Connecticut arfived here last night from City’ Point, with 540 sick and wounded on board. There were a few ampu- tations among this load of disabled men, but the large majority were fever cases.

At 11.10 the Alabama commenced the action by firing with her starbond battery, at a distance of abouta mile, The Kearsage also opened fire immediately with her starboard guns. Asharpergagement, with rapid firing from both ships, was kept up, both shot and shell being discharged. In maneuvering both vessels made complete circles ata distance of from a quarter to half a mile. At 12 o’clock the fire from the Alabams was observed toslacken, and she appeared to be making head sail, shaping her course for land, which was distant about 9 miles. At 1250 the Confederate vessel was in 8 disabled and sink - ing state. The Deer Hound immediately made toward her, and in passing the Kearsage was requested to assist in saving the crew of the Alabama, Wher the Deer Hound was still ata distance of two hundred yards, the Alabama ennk, and the Deer Hound then lowed her boats, and with the assistance of those from the sinking vessel, succeeded in saving about forty men, including Captain Semmes and thirteen other officers, The Reatsage ‘was Apparently much disabled.

Itis stated that 4 formal challenge to fight was given by the Kearsage, and accepted by Captain Semmes. According to some accounts, the Kearsage sustained considerable damage, her sides being torn open, showing the chain plating.

Only three seamen were wounded. It says that the Kearsage captured 48 of the officers and men of the Alabama. New York, July 5.—A note trom the Amer- ican Consul at Liverpool, dated the 22d, states that no one was killed on the Kearsage, but three of the crew were slightly injured. The ‘vessel was very little injured. New York, July 5.—The Paris correspon- dent of the London Globe says the Alabama made two attempts to board the Kearsage, bat her commander outmanwuvered Semmes, and finally sent a projectile right through the Ala- bama’s boiler. = Then seeing what had occurred, he brought all his guns to bear on the pirate in & concen- trated broadside from the starboard, and mad breach tour yards in length under her water mark, when she began t sink rapidly FROM PORT HUDSON.
