BaLtimore, July 15.—Some “knowing” Se- cessionists here assert that the recent rebel in- vasion was merely a reconnoissance, to ascer- tain the position and strength of the fortifica- tions at Washington and in Maryland. Dis- covering what they were, they merely retired to the other side of the Potomac to await large reinforcements, with which, when obtained, they will inyade us sgaim with an immense army, with Lee in command. This may be mere braggadocio, but since what has been done partakes. more of trath than fiction, it is well to be on thealert, and not again be taken unawares. Some straggling rebels are reported to haye been seen ip Balumore county last night. It is believed thatthe plunder obtained and the damage done by the rebels in Western Maryland and other parts of the State, will amount to four millions of dollars.

There is to us something sadly ominous in the thinness of the afternoon congregrations in many churches.
