The panic created ‘was equal to that of Bull run, and was greatly enhanced by the alarming despatches from the War Department about the danger of Washing- ton. It is scarcely necessary to say that these events were not very well calculated to avert foreign intervention. Meantime McClel- ‘lan, who was certainly not responsible for the disaster of the Shenandoah, did all the fighting, but was left to fight his battles alone against superior odds. Yet amidst these difficulties he has advanced to the very suburbs of Richmond. Where are the other three Union armies which were to co- operate with him? In consequence of his losses from sickness and from battle he wants rein- forcements, and unless he speedily receives “them there may be serious difficulty. Owing to ‘the original interference with the general plan -of the campaign he will now probably have to fight a considerable portion of Beauregard’s ‘army as well as Johnston’s. The very journals who most strongly urged his premature ad- ‘wance, and said his troops numbered two or “three to one of the foe, now unite in the most dismal strains, and sound the note of alarm ‘The New York Times says there is an “ominous spause” in the advance of McClellan to Rich- mond, and the reason is that he finds there a far greater force than his own—a force of some 200,000 men. The World sayg he ought to be reinforced by every disciplined regiment in the country. The Tribune, which formerly said he had only Quaker guns and a handful of men to contend with at Manassas, urges that all the militia in “the East, West and centre” be promptly sent forward to his melief. There can be no clearer confession of its own guilty conduct than this. It any terri- ‘ble disaster should befall the Army of the Po- tomac, there is at least one man who is free from any participation in the responsibility, and that man is General McClellan. How the responsibility is to be shared by others, from “the special military adviser of the Cabinet,” “the Cesar of our army;” down to the lowest subordinate officer, may hereafter became the subject of a searching inquiry. Meantime, suffi- cient unto the day is the evil thereof. Let McClellan be reinforced promptly and all will yet be well. The Recent News fiom Mexico—Probable Defeat of the French and their Flight from the Interior. The news from Mexico, via Havana, which we recently published, and which was subse- quently confirmed by later advices, by way of Key West, makes it appear highly probable that the French have been signally defeated in the interior of the Mexican republic. The in- telligence may be thus briefly recapitulated:— On the 4th of May last, the French, to the num- ber of some four thousand men, made a deter- mined attack upon the city of Puebla, but were repulsed by the Mexicans at all points, with a loss of one thousand killed and wounded and some two hundred Zouaves taken prisoners. Failing in their first attempt, they made a second attack, but were again driven off with a loss of several pieces of artillery. In the mean- time, Marquez, the traitor, who had deserted the national cause to aid the invaders, was met by General Carvajal and summarily put to flight. Disconcerted and defeated on every side, the French had no other resource but to fall back on their reserves at Orizaba; but the latest accounts state that the victorious Mexi- cans were hotly pursuing them, and that there were great fears that their whole army would be either captured or annihilated. So much for the Mexican version of the story- ‘The French organs in this city and elsewhere discredit it altogether, upon what appear to us to be very insufficient grounds. They say that the French army in Mexico consisted originally of but ten thousand men. Of these three thou- sand were left at Vera Cruz, three thousand ad- vanced as a reserve to Orizaba, and the rest of their forces, numbering four thousand men, were sent forward to the attack on Puebla, which ‘was to precede their expected grand entry into the capital. When they arrived at the gates of Puebla, however, they found there twenty thousand sturdy Mexicans with arms in their hands, ready to dispute the entrance of the in- vaders into their city. On perceiving this ine- quality of forces, the French, it is said, decided not to fight but to fall back on their reserves ‘at Orizaba. Now this version of the story is far more humiliating to French pride than the @pparently truthful Mexican theory; for if the French did not fight, then they ran away: they could pursue no middie course. If they ad- ‘vanced to Puebla to attack the city and did not attempt to do so, then it is plain that they must shave fled before the enraged hosts of the Mexi- “can army. All the proceedings of the French since their Anvasion of Mexico have been marked by these wild and inconsiderate enterprises. Their alliance with Almonte, and their connivance at ‘his usurpation of nominal power, by means of a ‘bogus election, were not marked by anything like common sense or discretion. Nor does it ‘reflect much credit on the wisdom of the Em- peror Napoleon—who has always been con- sidered a shrewd and far-seeing ruler—to pre- sume to attempt the conquest of so vast a coun- ‘try as Mexico with a beggarly army of ten thousand men. When the United States were at war with that republic they first sent an army of 30,000 men to assert their rights, and these were followed by 20,000 more, and three times as many vessels as the French have sent, ‘before they could capture the city of Mexico. This should have been a salutary lesson to Na- poleon, considering, besides, how far away his -empire is from the Mexican territory. The whoie scheme of this French conquest is vain and illusive. With a united people to resist their invaders, and the rapid movements »now being made to end the American rebellion, it would be well for the French to take heed in time, and withdraw while they may from the soil of Mexico, which otherwise may be their second Moscow. Tavetow Weep ann THe ConsERVATIVE Movement vor tHe Fart Campatan.—lIt is re- ported that Thurlow Weed refuses to give his positive assent to the conservative programme for the fall campaign, with Seymour for Gover- nor and Evarts for Lieutenant Governor. We would advise the contraetors to unite together ‘and add a codicil of five per cent commission, and then see if he does not give his assent. How to Conpuct 4 Newsparer.—Poor Gree- Jey and the abolition managers of the Tribune are anxious for us to tell them how to manage ® nowspaper? If they will permit us to con- uct the Tribune for « month, we will show them how to make a splendid and successful newspaper.

He has been lately dining with dukes and duchesses, lords and nobles, aristocratic ladies and gentlemen, and does not seem to re- lish the entertainment offered. ‘He will accept a dejeuner at Fort Washington, but will not be feted by the vulgar democrats at the City Hall. IMPORTANT FROM FREMONT’S CORPS. Desperate Fight Between the Union Advance and the Rebel Jack- son’s Rear Guard, The Enemy Driven: Beyond Harrisonburg. CAPTURE OF THE REBEL CAMP. NAMES OF THE KILLED AND WOUNDED, ke. es ke. Wasmvatow, June 9, 1862. The following despatch was received at the War De- partment to-day by telegraph from Front Royal:— Hrapquarrers, MOUNTAIN DEPARTMENT, ARMY IN THE Frxcp, HarrisonsurG, June 7, 1862. To Hon, E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War:— ‘The army reached this place at two o’clock yesterday, driving out the enemy’s rear guard from the town. Severe skirmishing continued from that time till dark, the onemy’s rear boing closely pressed by our advance. At four o’oclock the First New Jersey cavalry, after driving the enemy through the village} fell into an am- buscade in the roads, to the southeast of the town, in which Colonel Wyndham, of that regiment, was captured, and considerable loss was sustained. Colonel Cheseret, with his brigade, subsequently en” gaged tho enemy in the timber, driving him from his position and taking his camp. At about eight o'clock a battalion of Colonel Kane's Pennsylvania regiment entéred the woods, under the direction of Brigadicr General Bayard, and maintained for half an hour a vigorons attack (in which both sides suffered severely), driving the enomy. The enemy at- tempted to shell our troops, but a few shots from one of our batteries soon silenced his guns. After dark the enemy continued his retreat Full particulars will be forwarded by mail. J. C, FREMONT, Major Genoral. Additional Particulars of the Fight. Harrisonnura, Juno 6, 1862. ‘Tho advance guard of General Fremont reached Har- risonburg this afternoon, at two o’clock. There was no fighting during the march. Jackson camped here last night, and left this morn- Ing. A cavalry force was sent on a reconnoissance four miles beyond the town, which came ona large rebel foroe of cavalry and infantry strongly posted in the woods, Colonel Wyndham, who had pushed the recon noissance three miles further than ordered, rashty led forward the First New Jersey cavalry, and was drivon ‘back by infantry inambush. Colonel Wyndham is a priso- ner and Captains Shellmure and Hainos killed or severely wounded and prisoners. Captain Charles is missing. All the officers bravely and vainly endeavored to rally their men, Captain Janeway gallantly attempted a flanking movement, which covered the retroat of the First bat- talion. He is unhurt. The regiment lost thirty-five in killed, wounded and missing. General Bayard, with the ‘‘Bucktail”’ or Kane Rifles and First Pennsylvania cavalry, and Cheseret’s brigade of the Sixtieth Ohio and Eighth Virginia, were ordered forward to tho support, and drove the body of the enemy from their position, and captured their camp and some stores, with loss. The Kane Rifles, numbering over one hundred and twonty-five men, found themselves opposed and flanked in the woods by four regiments of infantry and cavalry, and before they could be withdrawn sutfored severely. Lioutonant Colonel Kane is severely wounded anda prisoner. Captain Taylor was also wounded and captured. Captain W. F. Blanchard was wounded se- verely. Lieutenant J. J. 8. Wayne was probably killed. Aftor a most gallant fight the Rifles were driven back, with a loss of fifty-five killed, wounded and missing. ‘The rebels brought up their artillery and used it with effect. Jackson is thought to have left the main road, and has either halted the main column for battle or greatly strengthened bis rear guard, and posted his trains, which are in confusion, on the road. ‘The following is the loss in the Bucktail Rifles: KILLED.

All is quiet at this piace, but everything wears a do- @rted look. Generals Sigel and Banks, with their re- spective commands are here, The former is itching t? get hold of Jackson, who, it is reported, bas dispersed his army in every direction. But those who know the man attach no credit to the report. His intention is, Probably, to reinforco guerilla parties from time to time, and suddenly and unexpectedly eoucentrate them for his own movements upon various points. His whereabouts is unknown. There are many surmises which I do not think it worth while to repoat, ‘The Opequan Pillar and Back creek bridges, which were burned by tho rebels, and Big and Little Cacapon, carried away by the latofreshet, have beon repaired, and the Baltimore and Ohio Katlroad is now in perfect running order, with the exception of the bridge at Har- per’sFerry. This, however, is supplied temporarily by pontoon bridge. The company is preparing to put up a tresselod bridge at the ferry, which will be done in ten days,or sooner if the water falls. An iron bridge is being prepared in Baltimore, and will be raised upon the old abutments within two months, ‘The trains are now running over the road to Wheeling and Parkersburg in perfect safety. Ihave just learned that the four bridges on the Winchester branch, de- stroyed by tho rebels, are nearly completed, so that trains can pass on Wednesday. THE MISSISSIPPI VICTORY. UNION TROOPS AT BATON ROUGE. Interesting Rebel Accounts from Vicksburg. CAPTURE OF THE REBEL STEAMER CHEEK, &e., &., &. Condition of Affairs at Memphis—Cap- ture of the Rebei Steamer Check, &c. Mewpais, June 6—4 P. M. At this hour, just.as the dospatch boat is leaving, all is quiet, All the rebel flags known to be flying in the city have been removed, and no difficulties have oc- curred, Reports are current that Commodore Hollins, when he received news of the destruction of Montgomery’s fleet, burned his vessels, fourm number, which were some distance below here. Over 5,000 people lined the bluffs here to witness the fight. ‘This morning all the stores are closed, but many will be opened to-morrow. The citizens seem anxious to have trado renewed with them. Very little trouble ie apprehended in holding the city. Large quantities of cotton were burned, but it is said there is a groat amount of sugar and molasses that has been secreted by its owners. One rebel regiment was stationed a mile below tho city, but has disbanded, and the men are now endeavor. ‘ng to get home. ‘The floet will start at once for Vicksburg. Mearns, June 7, 1862. ‘This morning the rebel tug Mark R. Cheek was disco- vored up a slough above ¢ho city, where she had run for concealment, and surrendered to our tug Sampson. About a thousand rebel cannon left on the cars last night for Grenada, Miss. The railroads have all stopped running to the city. The Momphis and Charleston Railroad is badly cut up, and all its rolling stock has been sent South. All the stock of the Memphis and Ohio Railroad is here. Great affurts are being made to shield public property by private claims. Abvut 2,000 bales of cottou were burned. Colone] Thomas H. Kasson was the Military Comman- dant here; but ex-Senator and Acting Brigadier Genoral Fitch, of Indiana, is incommand of thecity now, Since the formal surrender at three o’clock in the afternoon yeaterday,and the posting of pickets through the city, the excitement among the people subsided, and all is quiet. Thd new postmaster for Memphis is now in Cairo, and will be here soon. Since tho formal surronder of the city yesterday, and the posting of pickets throughout the city, the oxcite- ment of the people has subsided. All was quiet during last night, and the only event of this morning was the capture of the rebol steamer Cheek, which cluded the fleet yesterday above the city by running up aslongh out of sight. She was brought down this morning. Nothing has yet been heard of the boat Van Dorn, which is tho only boat of the rebel flect that escaped yesterday. The Memphis Avalanche of the 6th says that the loco- motives recently run off by the railroad employes havo been recovered. The same paper says that all the bridges between Memphis and Humboldt have been destroyed. Cairo, June 8, 1862. Citizens to the number of 2,000 have reported them- selves, armed and equipped, to the Provost Marshat’s office, for service to prevent the destruction of property by a mob which they seemed to fear more than the fede- rala. It was expected that tho city would be fired, but the prompt action of the peaceable citizens, with the Colonel commanding and the Provost Guard, prevented it. As it was, the dopot of the Mississippi and Tennessee Rail- road was broken open by @ mob of men and women; but before they could take away anthing a detachment of the military arrived and dispersed thom. The stores in the depot were yesterday removed to a place of safety. Capt. Gould, Provost Marshal, has establishod his headquarters at the Planters’ Bank building. Col. Fitch, commander of tho post, issued a notice last evening that the United States has takon possession of the city ,for the purpose of asserting the supremacy of the laws protecting private and public property. Residents who may have fled are exhorted toreturn. Merchants and othors aro roquested to reopen their stores, excopting those dealing in intoxicating libuors, who are for- bidden to resume their traffic under penalty of having stock destroyed. The Mayor and Common Council will continue to exercise their functions, the military authorities co-operating for enforcing all proper ordinanoes, unless an exigency shall arise rendering martial law inoperative, It is hoped and believed, how- ever, that nothing will occur to render this step ne- essary. Sales of liquor have boon prohibited hero since Decem- ber, except by druggists and physicians in prescriptions. ‘The Late Naval Battle on the Mississippt. Cairo, June 9, 1862. ‘A special despatch from Memphis, dated sth iust., says that tho casualties in tho late fight are estimated at 150 killed and 300 to 400 wounded. ‘The loss of the rebels in the engagement was upwards of five hundred killed, many of whom belonged to the Gen. Lovell, and were drowned. Jeff. Thompson witnessed the fight sitting on horse- backin front of the yoso House. The remnants of his army, with the stampeding citizens, were in the cars not far from the city. Whon, one after another of the rebel gunboats sunk, and tho flagship took flight, Jeff. left. Two of our mortar men managed to elude the guard, and got on shore on Friday night, and wore killed in a row of their own getting up. The Evacuation of Fort Pillow by the Rebels, Wasninaton, June 8, 1862. The following despatch, written the day before the Momphis battle, was telegraphed from Cairo to-day, and was received at the War Department after those describ- ing the ram engagement:— Orrosrrs Raxpourn, Bartow Fort Pritow, June 5, via 'Carro, Juno 8, 1862. Hon. BE. M. Stawtox:— To my mortification the enémy evacuated Fort Pillow last night, Thoy carried away or destroyed evorything of value. Early this morning Lieutenant Colonel Ellet and a few mon in yawl went ashore, followed imme- diately by Colonel Fitch and a part of his command. The gunboats then came down and anchored across the channel. I proceeded with three rams twelve miles be- low the fort, to eye opposite Randoiph, and sent Lioutenant Colonel Kilet ashore with a flag of truce, to demand the surrender of the place. Their forces hail all left—two of their 7 only an hoar or two before ‘wo approached. aad seemed to respect the fag which Lieutenant Colon! iiet planted. Tho guns had been dismantied, and some piles of cotton were burnin, 1 shall leave Licutonant Colonel Ellet here in the ak vanee, and returm immediately to Fort Pillow, to bring on my entire force. The peoplo pong the endden- ness of the evacuation to the attempt made the night be- fore last to sink one of their gunboats at Fort Pillow. Randolph, like Pillow, is weak, and could not have held out long against a vigorous attack. The people express a desirefor the restoration of the old order of things, though still professing to be ery CHAS. ELLET, Jn., Colone! Commanding Rara Flotilla, Important from Vicksburg. [From the Richmond Enquirer, June 4.) Avausta, May 31,1862, The Jackson Mississippian of tho 29tb understands that afew shots were fired from the Yankee squadron at Vicksburg the previous night. No injury was done. On the 30th the bombardment was resumed. Last night it was supposed that no serious damage had been done. ‘Tho best spirit prevails among the citizens and soldiers. An engagement had occurred near Grand Gulf between one of our companies and the citizens and a force of tho enemy. It is reported that sixty of the enemy were killed, The Vicksburg Whig reports that Captain Hoskin’s bat- tery opened effectually on the enemy’s transports at Grand Gulf, causing @ hasty retreat of the enemy, who Subsequently shelled the town. They said that they were in no hurry about Vicksburg, General Lovell had received an official despatch, dated 28th, which says that two federal officers and three men were killod at Baton Rouge. The enemy then shelled the city. No one killed. Captain Hoskin reports to General Lovell that he sank one federal transport and crippled another on Saturday. Op Sunday the evemy came up to land troops at Grand Gulf, and marched through Port Gibson. Our people drove them back with considerable loss, killing and wounding about one hun- dred. The Mississippian learns that the federals demanded the surrender of Hoskin’s battery, threatening, in case of refusal, to devastate the whole country around Grand Gulf. Adespatch from Port Gibson, dated 31st, says that all was quiet at Vicksburg. The federal boats had retired. The Latest from Baton Rouge. Cairo, June 8, 1862. The Vicksburg Whig of the 4th says that the federals have landed six thousand troops at Baton Rouge. [From the Richmond Enquirer, Jun Batox Rover, May 29, 1862. federals attempted to land troops at the garrisom yesterday morning, in small boats. Just as they wer about to land a Confederate company fired. Without giving timely notice the federals commenced throwing shot and shell into the town. One of the missiles struck the Harney House. Many other houses were struck. In half an hour after the firing commenced nearly all the women and children left town, flying in every di- rection. ‘The federals are now landing troops. A fight is ex- pected soon, a Confederate force being near the city. Hot work will soon commence. The Memphis Appeal of the 28th mentions a rumor that the federal commander had demanded the surrender of Fort Pillow, which was of course refused. The federals landed a large force at Osceola and marched to Island Thirty-five, below Fort Pillow. On Monday, and Tuesday the enomy wore shelling the fort furiously. No damage done, The fire was not returned. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. war GAZETTE. ‘Omeial. ORGANIZATION OF A MILITARY CAMP OF INSTRUC- TION AT ANNAPOLIS. Wasuixctos, June 9, 1862. General Order, No. 59, just issued, is as follows:— A camp of instruction for fifty taousand men—cavalry, artillery and infantry, in due proportions—will be imme- diately formod near Annapolis, Md. Major General Wool, United States Army, will command the camp, in addition to his duties as Department Commander. ‘The ground will be selected, and the troops, which will be assembled as rapidly as possible, under orders from the War De- partment, will be placed in position as they arrive. Brigadior Gonoral L. P. Graham is assigned to duty as chiof of cavalry at the camp, and Brevet Brigadicr General Harvey Brown as chief of artillery, ac- cording to his brevet.

Wasnrnctox, June 9, 1862. THE REOPENING OF THE MISSISSIPPI—THE NEW STEAM RAMS. Now that Memphis is taken, it is not believed that places below that city can long hold out against the gun- boat fleets that are ascending and descending the Mis- sixsippi, All the tributaries of that groat river must soon be ploughed by our war steamers, and the rebel boats that are engaged in burning cotton, &c., will short ly bo destroyed er captured. The suddon appearance of Union steam rams upon the Upper Mississippi shows that the government has been properly regardful of new inventions and contrivances in the art of naval warfare. As the Voion iron-ciads, or rams, are of later construction than those of the rebels, it is fair to presume that they arefanfimprovement upon thom. Aided, also, by the swift current of the Missis sippi, they soon overcome the rebel fleet. It is presumed that the rams under Colenol Ellet wore thoroughly iron- clad, sinee he regrets to report that Forts Pillow and Randolph had been evacuated BEAUREGARD'S AKMY AT RICHMOND. An opinion, based upon private letters from Fortress Monroe, gains ground here that the flower of General Boaurogard’s army ig at Richmond. It is said that a connection has been made between the Mobile Railroad south of Corinth and the Montgomery (Ala.) road, vis Selma. If this be so, it is not impossible that some picked regiments have left General Beaurogard’s column for Richmond, In all this matter of railroad extensions and connection to facilitate military movements, the rebels have exhibited great forecast and judgmont. THE REBEL IRISH BRIGADE REYUSE TO FIGHT AGAINST THEIR UNION BRETHREN. The faithiess conduct of the rebel leaders, in regard to the exchange of Colonel Corcoran, is attributed by many here to tho refusal of the Irish brigade in the rebel army at Richmond to fight against the green flag, borne by an Irish regiment in the Union ranks. THE ARMY IN THE VIRGINIA VALLEY. ‘Tho condition of affairs m the valley of Virginia is somewhat embarrassing. There are at present six major generals with separate commands there. ARRIVAL OF GENERALS ORD AND WOOL. General Ord is at present among tho guests at Willard’s Hotel. General Wool and staff were in Washington yesterday. GENERAL M’DOWBLL STILL AT THE CAPITAL. Goneral McDowell is still in this city. APPOINTMENTS CONFIRMED BY THE SENATE. The Senate to-day confirmed the following Presidential appointments.

LORD LYONS’ DEPARTURE FOR ENGLAND. ‘The departure of Lord Lyons for England has produced ‘® great sensation here, and various comments and sup positions are afloat respecting the cause of this sudden revolution, Difficult ag it is to state it distinctly, I can assure you, however, that the English ambassador goes to London animated with the best intentions towards our country and our cause, and with the entire approval of our government. It is even hinted in private circles that England having shown symptoms of impatience at the prolongation of the war, and being predisposed to take a wrong view of American affairs in consequence, Lord Lyons goos to England upon the invitation of Secrotary Seward. Once in presence of the members of the Cabi- net, the noble lord will have no trouble in making them understand that the war eannot be of long duration and that the days of the rebellion are numbered. THE CONFLICT OF JURISDICTION BETWEEN THE MILI- TARY AND CIVIL AUTHORITIES. ‘The recent conflict between the military and civil au- thorities has assumed a new phase, which will probably force an issue and a decision which shall prevail. The owner of the slave who was forcibly takenfrom the jail by Lieutenant Kress, under orders from General Wads- worth, has brought suits against both Wadsworth and Kress. John A. Bradley, Esq., the counsel for the Mar- shal, who was arrested by the military guard, has also 8 al Wadsworth. The writs aro to be served to- morrow, when, if General Wadsworth refuses to acknow- ledge service of them, it will become the duty of the Marshal to take him in custody. To do this it may be necessary to make a requisition upon the President for a military force to execute the law. The result of this contest between the civil and military powers is regard. ed with great interest. THE EFFORT TO REPEAL THE FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW. The House to-day was the scene of another scheme of agitation, looking to the repeal of the Fugitive Slave law. The resolution instructing the Judiciary Commit- tee to bring in a bill to repeal the law was voted down. but one was adopted directing them to prepare a modifi cating providing for a trial by jury in all claims under the law.
