They are Overtakem at Snicker’s Gap— General Crock hasa Fight with Them— Three Hundred Wagons with Plunder Captured. HaRRi8BURG, July 20.—Important despatch- es were received at headquarters here last night, from which it isina@icated that our torces are steadily and successiuily pursuing the rebels who recently ravaged the western por- tions of Maryland, and have wrested from them large amounts of plunder. Generai Crook, while in the pursuit on Mon- day last, overtook theenemy at Snicker’s Gap, where a sharp, and, for a time, terrific encoun- ter took:place, Phe rebels fought }ike devils, anxious to re- tain the grain and cattle they had succeeded in carrying thus far from Maryland. General Crook, however, was just as much determined that they should not eécape. We whipped the rebels thoroughly, capturing over three hnn- dred wagons heavily Jaden with ‘grain, and took many prisoners. As wsnal; the enemy left his dead and wounded on the field, to be buried and cared for by oar troops. ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, WasninctTon, July 20.—Information re- ceived from Headquarters Army of the Poto- mac, dated July 19th, says: The usnal qniet still preyails along the lines, and were it not for the sound of anoccasional gun and some picket firing at a few poiats, one would sup- pose that no enemy was within miles of us. Gen. Burnside’s men made the most of the ruse, the enemy taking every opportunity to fire at the colored troops that occupy a posi- tion in his front, and of course, the is re- turned with interest, but without much dam- age on either side. No decerters come in at this part of the lines, as they say they have no chance to get throngh without running the risk of being shot, the negroes being ao con- stantly on the alert. Bnt they are coming in atother points dally in squads. A sergeant and his squad came in this morning, and allof them report that thousands are ready toleaye as fast as opportunity presents. They come principally from Georgia, Flori- da and Alabama regiments, and an officer ofa regiment from the former State is said to have gone to his superior offieer a day or two ago and reported that if his company was pot soon relieved he would have none torelievé, as they would all be gone to the enemy. These deser- ters state that they are very short of provi- sions, particularly vegetables, and they seem glad enough when they get into our lines. Strict orders haye been given, they say, that they shall not hold intercourse with our men on the picket line or exchange papers, and one fellow the other day, who came boldly over and brought a paper with him, taking ene back, was canght and made tostand on the top of their works in full view ef our lines, and wave the paper back and forth for an hour, as vie ent. An attack from the enemy has been expected for the past two days, and last night, from what a deserter bad said, it was 10oked for as certain, but no demonstration was made. We have had apperrances of rain all this after- noon, bat so far none has fallen, and the dust continues to envelop everything. FROM NORTHERN MISSOURI. Aggravated Guerrilla Outrages—A Panic among the Peeple. Sr. Lovts, July 20.—General Fiske, com- manding at St. Joseph, has issued an appeal, calling for five thousand loyal men to rally for the protection of life and property, and assist him in exterminating the guerrillas m North- west Missouri. Further Particulars of Guerrilla Outrages. Sr. Lovrs, July 20.—Private letters from Lexington say about nine hundred bush- whackers are in Kay county. Some of the Federal troops had a fight with them on Sun- day, near Richmond, in which eight of our men are reported killed. About three hundred gnerrillac ware at Elk Horn on Menday. Thirty bushwhackers Killed nine Citizens of Carroll county, robbed the mail coach and passengers, and did considerable promiscuons thieving last week. All the persons murdered had been in military service, and were promi- nent Union men. The St. Joseph Herald of yesterday says that the city is full of refugees from the lower counties, and hundreds have gone to Leaven- worth and other places. The panic extends throngh the whole country. All business houees in Weston are closed, and the citizens are in constant fear of a raid. About fourteen buildings were burned in Platte City by the Fedérai troops, including the Platte Sentinel office and other houses ba- long to Union men. Colonel Ford tried to saye the Sentinel office, but the fire made too great progress, and thus defeated his good intentions. A letter witbout date, signed by Thornton H. Todd, commanding, was found at Platte City station, acknowledging the receipts of the names of friends, and saying that they could cross the Missouri river below Parkersyilie, ford Kansas river west of Wyandotte, and ac- complish their trip throngh Kansas. This letter shows they intended, after a few days plundering, to join the rebel army South, effecting their escape through Kansas. Thornton has been in Platte and Clay coun- ties eight months, and recruited twelve hun- dred men, and during this time had been aided, protected, and concealed, and subsisted by citizens of those counties. FROM FORTRESS MONROE. A Steamer with Gen’l Butler on Board, Attacked. Fortress Monrog, July 19.—The steamer Parthenia and New Jersey arrived here to-day trom Newbern, North Carolina, with the 17th Massachusetts regiment, homeward bound. They bring no news. Major General Smith arrived in the steamer Adelaide this morning, from Baltimore, and left for the front in a special boat. Conflicting rumors have been in circulation during the day of an attack on the army gun- boat Charles Chamberlain, with Gen’l Butler on board, by 8 masked battery of guns, near Wilcox’s Landing.

The physicians think, however, that by attention to Tegimen and the observance of rest, he may so far recover as to enjoy atolerably comfortable existence, but that all idea of his resuming the career of an athlete must be abandoned. The medical examination revealed the fact that Heenan’s frame was generally a prey to disease.

NASHVILLE, July 12 181 —Another flany movement by Shermar and snother rétreat Johnston! If it indeed be true that the rebel nder in Georgia be formidable only ina be mnst now be one ot the most terri- ble fellows on record, as he has been retreating steacily “ince the first day of May last—two month: and «halt. When Johnston abandoned the Kenesaw Mountain, on the day b@ promised the citizens of Atlanta a yvictory—inviting them out to see the Yankees run—he pledged his word that there should be no turther falling back; that the Chattshoochee should not ba abandoned, while chivalric Southerner could bare his hieast to Yankee steel; but, alas! he has ny violated his faith, and the hamiliated Atianta, who stood on the top of the Kenesaw Mountuin, to see the Yankee run on the 4th of July, are cow compelled to contemplate the home where they shall be left without chival- ric pretection, and be compelled to throw them- se}ves upon Yankee honor for safety. Somehow, I notice, wherever our armies go, they sncceed—conciliating the women with the gTeatest readiness. My observation haa con- vinced me that “when this cruel war {8s over,” many a starved rebel, driven into tne service by his betrothed, will come home to find her whom he entered the army to defend the wile ot one of those terriple Yankees—those hated Puritar sand he will doubtless be spurned away asa traitor, deserving the scorn and con- tem pt of respectable people, deserving to be de- 6 by bis affianced. 3t will be in Atlanta. Many a Georgia msiden will, ere a year has elapsed, thank her Stars that some Yankee whom she hoped to see sinin on the 4th was allowed to survive and biess ber tor life, Bat enough of this—Mars, not Venus, calls. The Rebel works on the south bank of the Obatiahouchee, Sherman dec }ares to be the most formidabie he bas yevencountered, since leay- ing Chattanooga. They ar- five miles anda quarter in length, and arevompletely protected by an abattis, which is im): etrable.- There cam be ne doubt of the factthat the rebels have been months preparing them, and that it is their intention to defend them to the last—at least that it was the intention of the people of Georgia tliat they should be so defended, though pre dohnsien may not have been so determined ent. Gov. Brown lent not only the influence of the State in constructing, but hisown personal services in superintending, the works; every negro demanded—and they were thonsands— to dig ditches and throw up entrenchments were forthcoming; and Joe Johnston was urged to stake all apes the resultof a battle there. That he would gladly have done so, hisown forces making a direct assault, we have no doubt, because one man within the breast- works is equal to twenty assailants over the ground from the river to the rifle-pits; but a@ direct attack was just the thing not intended by Sherman, and accordingly a flank moye- ment was made. McPherson, after some maneuvering, suc- ceeded in effecting & landing on the south bani of the river, in the vicinity of Binning’s Sta- tion, On Friday evening, about sundown, The rebels had evidently expected that our right would advance to turn their left, and had ac- cordingly made the necessary pre ons to meet Hooker, wren, to their astonishment, the found MePherson’s cannon playing upon their works with fearful effect, causing a panic in bay extreme flank by its suddenness and se- verity. But the rebels were not easily frightened from their formidable works; on the other band, they resolved to remain in them if possi- ble; but how they expected to hold them, now that a pioneer brigade was south of the river, I eannot conjecture. Nevertheless, they con- tinued to hold them throughout Saturday, though our troops were massing in large nnm- bers, constantly, and were in complete posses- sion of & range of hills, trom which they could not be driven. On Sunday morning, discovermg that our army was nearly all over, Joe Johnston gave orders for another retreat. The heavy guns had been removed during the night, and at daylight the railroad bridge, the common road bridge, and the pontoons were in flames. Our forces were not in a position to do anything to avert the destruction of these structures, nor could they ccmmence the pursnit of the flying foe till they had completed theirown communications. The pioneer brigade, however, was indus. triously at work, and soon half a dozen pon- toons spanned the stream, and our army was across by Monday noon, occupying the works abandoned by the rebels. Whether or not a turther ad vance has begun I am unable to say; but certain it is it will not be long delayed. The chiefobstacles have now been overcome: the mountain region 1s passed, the Chattahoochee is behind us, and only a level plain now extends its broad surface be- tween Sherman and the objective point of at- tack, Atlanta. Sherman has now no natural obstacles to Overcome. There erc fortifications, we pre- sume, completely protected by the usual od tis; but they are on a level plain and are yal- nerable to the heayy artillery with which he Is pruicontly Sa pie The distance to the town is less than seven miles, and to the forti- fications four or five. The investment, then, cannot long be delayed. We captured 2,500 prisoners between Mari- etta and the Chattahoochee, and over 1,000 south of that stream. Abont 2,000 of these have already arrived here, and others are com- ing on every train. They are all sent north immediately. A day or twosince, 400 fromthe vicinity of Nashville—the young bloods who entered the rebel army in 186!—were here, ragged, dirty and forlorn. Many ofthem to take the oath of amnesty, but were not al- lowed todoso. There were a number of de- serters released here, on accepting the amnes- ty, day before yesterday. Later. NASHVILLE, July 19.—The latest official information from General Sherman is that his army crossed the Chattahoochee at several places north of the railroad bridge. The movement was accompanied with such celerity as to take the enemy by surprise, and therefore the resistance to his ad vance was feeble on the part of the rebel cavalry. Our cavalry was at once sent to operate on the railroad east of Atlanta, one of the objects being to cut off communication between At- lanta and Augusta, thus preventing the remo- val of stores to the latter place, and also to prevent Johnston from being reinforced. Our main army was within tenor twelye miles from Atlanta, and all the operations of the army were progressing in the highest degree favorably. Cheap Bread. 2 « Bread and butter” are the only articles of food of which we never tire for aday, from early childhood to extreme old age. A pound of fine flour or Indian (corn) meal contains three times as much meat as one pound of butcher's roast beef; and if the whole product of the grain, bran and all, were made into bread, fifteen r cent more of nutriment ‘weuld be added. Unfortunately the bran, the coarsest part, is thrown away; the very part which gives soundness to the teeth and strength to the bones and vigor to the brain. Five hun- dred pounds ot fine flour give to the body thir- ty pounds of the bony element; while the same quantity of bran gives one hundred andtwen- ty-five pounds. This bone is “lime,” the phosphate lime, the indispensable element of health to the whole human body, fram the want of the natural supplies of which malti- tudes ot persons go intoa general “decline.” But sw: wing “phosphates” in the shape ot ow dere, or in syrups, to cure these “declines,’? as little or no virtue. The articles contained in these “phosphates” must pass through na- ture’s laboratory. must be subject to her ma- Fee in alembics specially prepared by Almighty power and skill, in order to impart their pecan! virtues to the human frame; in lainer phrase, the shortest, safest, and most fallible method of giving strength to body, bone and brain, thereby agresting disease and building up the constitution, is to eat and di- gest more bread made ont of the whole grain, whether of wheat, corn, rye or oats. But we must get an appetite for eating more, and a power of digesting more. Not by the ar- tificial and lazy method of drinking bitters and taking tonics, but by moderate, continued, and Temunerative muscular exercise in the open air every day, rain or shine. And thatwe may eat the more of it, bread must be good and cheap, and healthful and that which combines these three qualities toa extent than any other known on the face of the globe, as far as we know, is made thus:—To two quarts of Conte (aalinn) seeds sad one pinto bread sponge, water sufficiently to wet the whole; add one-half pint of flour and a teaspoonfal of salt.
