The reports current in Washington last night were that the rebels had crossed the Upper Poto- mac near Point of Rocks and the Monocacy river in force, and now occupy the city of Frederick, Md., tempted, no doubt, by the wealth and food in the vicinity. That they have been throwing bodies of troops over the river about this point for seve- ral days past was known. Considerable bodies of infantry were announced to be on ike Maryland shore yesterday. Nothing of importance ocourred in the front of the army before Wash- ington, and everytying was quiet in the city. The Tumor of a battle near Poolesville, on Thursday remains a mere rumor still, No official account of such an engagement has been announced. The army, however, is in readiness for a movement of some kind, and is provided with three days’ cook- edrations, Fredericksburg and Aquia Creek are abandoned by our troops, the rebels occupying the former place. We give to-day an excellent map of that portion of Virginia and Maryland where these all important operations are taking place. Fresh regiments are arriving in Washington every day in large force, and they are being de- tailed by General"MoClellan into the old brigades. Events thicken in Western Virginia and Ohio. The rebols are making desperate efforts to gain a foothold in the latter State. Late accounts from Gincinnati report that the enemy under Jenkins, the guerilla chief, captured the Union forces under Colonel Rathbone, s Spencer, Va., took possession of that place, and pushing on, occupied Ravenswood, on the Ohio wiver, the post village of Jackson county, Va., situ- ated within fifteen miles of the town of Ripley, Brown county, Ohio, a thriving place fifty-six miles up the river from Cincinnati. Ravenswood is situated opposite to the little village of Ra- ime, in Meigs county, Ohio. It was re- Ported that they had crossed the river wear this latter point, and were marching down on both sides of the river yesterday. The Contending forces were said to be within sight of each other, Smith being encamped at Buffalo, and @ battle was there imminent. The map which we @ive to-day shows exactly all the points above re- ferred to, and will enable our readers to comprehend the nature of this movement of the rebels upon Cincinnati from above, in combination with the attack from the Kentucky shore st Covington and Newport. The greatest excitement prevailed in Cincinnati yesterday from the rumor that Kirby Smith, with over 10,000 men, was at Falmouth, Kentucky, fifteen miles from Covington. The river, how- ever, was well guarded at all important points, and the preparations of Gen. Lew. Wallace to de‘end the city were complete. A despatch last night from Cincinnati states that the rebels were repulsed at Stevenson, Ala- bama, and that the town of Athens had been burned by our troops. A letter received from on board the United Bates steamer Cambridge, dated off Beaufort, August 22, states that the new gunboat Octorura captured @ large English steamer off Charleston. Bhe was loaded with salipetre, ammunition and atms, and valued at $250,000, MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. Major General Theophilus Hunter Holmes, of the rebol army, has been appointed commander of the trans-Mississippi Military Department, thereby guperseding General Hindman. He has already entered upon the duties of his new partment. Holmes is a North Carolinion, and entered the Military Academy at West Point as @ cadet in 1825, ani graduated at that institu- tion on the 30th of June, 182%, standing forty fourth in his class, being the laet ‘on the list but two, On the Ist of July he was appointed brevet second lie the Seventh United States infantry. wubsequent promotions were—first liewtenant, March, 1835; captain, December, 1838; brevet Major for gallant and meritorious conduct in seve- ra! conflicts at Monterey, Mexico, Sept. 22, 1846; and fall major, March 3, 1855. Atthe inaugura- tionot the present rebellion he was in command of de- one the mililary post at Governor's Island, New York harbor, but when North Carolina wevoded he resigned his commission in tie United States Army, and cast his Jot with bis brother rebels in the South. He was fon after appointed brigadier general in the rebe] ariny hortly after to the rank of major a 1861, while the rebels kept up the | bio sue Potomac, he ing that stream from soveral directions. The | dosign, the price of gold has again gono down. / THE FONEBAL OF MAJ. GEN. KEABNY. of the loft wing ofthe rebel army. Gon. Holmes was never considered, while inthe Union army, a8 8 very brilliant officer. He was, thereforo, always placed in subordinate positions. He was what is gene- rally known as ‘a fast liver,” and during the latter part of his career in our army was @ habi- tual drunkard. His career in his new department need not cause our generals: uneasiness. ‘The following is a listof the names of the dif ferent guerilla chiefs or leaders of bands of ‘“‘par- tisan rangers” now or lately operating in Western Virginia, Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee. The majority of them hold commissions as captains from Jef. Davis and John Letcher, Governor of Virginia; but '® few of them claim the nom de guerre of colonel, and one (Morgan) signs himself a brigadier general. Their followers vary in num: | ber from one hundred to three thousand:— John H, Morgan William Haller, . . Quant . joseph Kirk. Joseph G. Porter. George Jesse. ev ’paward Porter. James Bider.

T. Sprague, United States disburs- ing and mustering officer—are as follows: Three hundred and eighty-seven rebel belonging to Tennessee “have sworn fidelity to the government and been released from Camp Douglas, Chicago. Governor Morton, of Indiana, has issued a proclamation exempting from the draft the ‘* peo- ple called Shakers or Quakers,” but requiring them to pay an amount of money which shall be deemed an equivalent for sach exemption. Twelve hundred cavalry breech-loading car- bines have been sent to Kentucky from the new government armory at Hamilton, Ohio. Five thousand more have been ordered. The enrolment in New Bedford, Massachusetts, shows a total of 3,214 men on a war footing, of whom 189 are colored, 535 are now in the ranks, and 468 are at sea—leaving 2,022 to draft from. The subscriptions to the war fund in Philadel- phia now amount to nearly four hundred and fifty zhousand dollars. A writer in the Washington Star, in attempting to exculpate Colonel Rodney Mason, of the Ohio Seventy-tirst regiment, from the charge of cow- ardice inthe surrender of Clarksville, Tennessee, says:— Allwho know Rodney Mason are satis- fied that, were he to remain sober, a better or braver officer could not be found.” There are sixieen hundred nine months militia men, without uniforms or arms, at Camp Freling- huysen, Newark, New Jersey, The Gas Company in Philadelphia will not raise ‘the price of gas to consumers in consequence of the government tax, but will pay the levy out of their profits. There have been thirty thousand visitors at Saratoga Springs this season. " General Schofield has Jevied an assessment of five hundred thousand dollars on the secesh citi- zens of St. Louis, for arming, clothing and sub- sisting the enrolled militia while in active service, and providing for the support of the families of volunteers, Ten more slaves belonging to rebels.were ma- Bumitted in St. Louis on the 29th ult. Mr and Mrs. Fred. Beckwith, Mrs. Dedmon and niece, Miss Samuels and sister, ond Miss Butler, were ordered on the 29th.ult. to leave St. Louis within twenty-four hours, or be confined in a prison. They were charged with possessing on over stock of secesh. The printing materials of the Bloomington (Illi- nois) Zimes were thrown into the street on the 22d inst., and all the combustible portions burned. Cause—Copperhead democracy and secession pro- clivities. Hon. Joseph A. Wright, present United States Senator from Indiana, whose term expires ov the 4th of March next, has been nominated for the House of Representatives, as the Union candidate, in the Seventh district. His antagonist is Hon. Daniel Webster Voorhies, copperhead democrat. It is estimated that there are forty-five thousand young men, with no responsibility, in this city and Brooklyn , who are either too lazy or too cowardly to shoulder a musket. Fifty thousand dollars in Albany Corporation shinplaster currency will be in circulation by the 1st of October. By reference to our religious intelligence it will be seen that nearly all of the churches that have been closed for the past five or six wecks will be reopened to-duy. According to the City Inspector's report, there ‘were 636 deaths in the city during the past week-— an increase of 16 as sompared with the mortality of the week previous, and 62 more than occurred daring the corresponding week last year. The re- capitulation table gives 4 deaths of alcoholism, 1 of diseases of the bones, joints, &c.; 88 of the brain and nerves, 5 of the generative organs, 9 of the heart and blood vessels, 118 of the lungs, throat, &ec.; 5 of old age, 13 of diseases of the skin and eruptive fevers, 5 premature births, 221 of dis- eases of the stomach, bowels and other digestive organs; 45 of unvertain seat and general fevers, 1 unknown; 6 of diseases of the urinary organs, and 16 from violent causes. There were 395 natives of the United States, 12 of England, 81 of ire. land, 28 of Germany, and the balance of various foreign countries, The United States District Attorney has ap- pointed Mr. H. H.

It now appears that the rebels are de- sirous of becoming familiar with the geography mimanded a division | of the Obio river, and are said to be anvroach- — — az Ohio river is, therefore, just now s.stream of more than ordinary interest, and the publio are universally studying its features. _ : The New Campaiga on the Potomac— Now is the ‘:ime for Action. ‘What has become of the great rebel army of Virginia? The main body of it has disappeared from the bloody fields of Manassas, and is probably divided into two columns, one of which, it is reported, has already crossed the Potomac ‘at Point of Rocks, and now occupies Frederick, and the other moving over the Blue Ridge and down the Shenandoah valley for some ford between Harper’s Ferry and Wil- Mamsport, from which to. make a dash among the bountiful supplies of. horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, grain, flour, &o,, of those fertile upper river counties of Frederick and Washington, in Maryland. The amount and varieties of subsistence pro- duced by these two counties are immense. Take, for example, their annual product of wheat .and Indiea oora, as reported by the doab, from the pressure of the rebel conscrip. tion and the spoliations and destruction resulting from the war, has produced very little food this year beyond the immediate wants of its local population; but these two counties sforesaid, just over the river in Marytand, have stores on hand sufficient to feed a rebel army of a hun- dred thousand men for six months, while in Frederick City and Hagerstown the dry goods shops would furnish the ragged rebel troops a very desirable supply of olothing, to say nothing of medicines, &c. Assuming, then, that the object of the rebel army is to get in among the abun- dant army supplies of Frederick county and city, while the design of Jackson’s column, moving down the Shenandoah valley, is a simi. lar raid over into Washing county and Hagers- town, the question recurs, can the rebels, and will they, be defeated in these enterprises We cannot imagine that, beyond this import- ant matter of subsistence, the rebels have now any design in their threatened invasion of Maryland. They have lost their opportunity for a descent upon Baltimore, and doubtless they have made this discovery. They are not in any way prepared to undertake the siege ! of our national capital, and they cannot ad- vance very far north of Harper’s Ferry without leaving Richmond subject io capture by a eélumn from our ariny in front of Washington, co-operating with half a dozen gunboats. In any ovent, we expect that the rebel army will soon be compelled to take the back track to Richmond. In this view the same vigorous and energetic efforts should be made on our side to overhaul that army and to cut it up, disperse or capture it, that characterized the late pursuit of General Pope by Lee and Stone- wall Jackson. It is now the 7th of Sepiember. We have less than three months remaining during which we can depend upon the “sacred soil” of Virginia to serve us for army purposes. We must appropriate the in- terval in active work ogainst the enemy, or we shall find our army again embargoed or “stuck in the mud” till April. We are grati- fied with the assurance that the adniinisiration, General Halleck and General “McCleilan are fully aware of this, and of the necessity of immediately resuming offensive opera- tions, and that they have ao notion of reporting trom dsxy to day “All quiet on the Potomac” for eight or nine months to come. We are gratified to know that the government and our principal gene- rals at Washington are working like beavers to organize our immense forces of veteran troops and new volunteers for immediate service ia the field; and that if within the next ten days our loyal States. from Pennsylvania eastward, will only throw into Washington some fifty thousand additions! men, an army fully equal to a rebel army of two hundred thousand will instantly be om the road to Richmond, leaving Washington amply protected on evéry side. Much depends upoa the Governors of our loyal States. They may delay and disappoint the government, or they may greatly assist it and facilitate its movements. To this end let Governor Morgan and every other Joya! Gover- nor send forward at once their new troops on hand, by regiments or parts of regiments, by pompanies or parts. of companies, and without their tin cups, extra shoes, dtc., if they ase not ready, for General Halleck, General McClellan and General Casey will supply all deficiencies of outfit and organization at Washington. Tt was only the other day that Cincinnati was aroused by the dangers of a threatened rebel invasion; and if to-day the rebel General Kirby Smith, with his boasted army of twenty thou- sand men, were to appear before Cincinnati, he would be confronted by an extemporized Union army, nearly all crack riflemen, fifty thousand strong, avd “still they come.” Let us of the East cmulate this active patriotism of the West, and New York alone, withim the next ten days, will be able to add fifty thousand men to the graud army around Washington. Now is the time for action—now or never. Onward! Grewry on Go.n—The Tribune says we pointed to the stock market a# the true barome- ter of the public confidence, and referred to the price of gold falling as an evidence of the wisdom of the appointment of General McClellan. The ‘Tribune calls it “the latest important army appointment,” aa if afraid to mention the name of the distinguished man it called “traitor.” The reply of the Tribune to our argument is, that gold, which had been 119 on Wednesday, went down to 117% on Thursday, and on Friday went up to 119%. This is only a confirmation of our argument. From the premature disclosure by the Tribune of the re- treat of General McClellan from James river resulted the movement of the rebels against Washiagton by way of Gordonsville and the severe loss of Pope’s army in its retreat to form a junction with the Army of the Potomac. The appointment of General McClellan to de- fend Washington caused the price of gold to fall two percent. But the extent of the effect of the tteachery of the Tribune was not limited to the peril of an asaanit on Washington in front, which McCiellan’s appointment prevent- ed. It afterwards appeared that the line of the Potomac was threatened. That caused gold to fro up two per cent. But now that it is known General McClellan, in co-operation with Gene- ral Halieck, has made such disposition of the Union troops as to defeat the rebels in thoir or ry y co . a og tt wary The gold market is still, therefore, “ex evidence that alt is weil.” Honey Fouwagp tas Recavrs.—It will be seen, by our telegraphie news this morning, that two or three Massachusetts regiments and two regiments from Vertiont are en rowe for the war. The One Hundred and Twenty-eighth regiment from this State was in this city yesterday, and the One Hundred and Sixteenth has started from Buffalo. The One Hundred and Thirty-fifth left this city yes- terday. All this is good as far as it goes, but the exigency of the moment calls for still greater activity on the part of the Governors of the loyal States, Now is the time for work, and our Governors should not wait until they have full regiments, but send the men on without delay. If the tin cups are not ready send them on without the tin cups. Men are wanted, and if a regiment is not ready forward a battalion, @ company, oreven « squad. There is every- ‘thing in Washington that the volunteers will need on the field of battle, including blankets, ons ead tin cups. The Governors of the loyal States have it their power to fur- nish ‘men epough to the rebel ar- not stop at trifes or be controlled by personal ous skeleton regiments and companies in this City; let them be forwarded without waiting for them tobe filled up. They are needed in the old regiments, and can thus render to their country important service. The national ad- ministration is looking to the State officials for a prompt despatch of every recruit. Will their response be in accordance to the emergencies of the oocasion? Onward! Tux “Nationa, Wak Coumrrren” or New York. —aA self-constituted oommittee in this city had the impudence to go to three or four Governors of New England, in the name of the people of New York, to induce those officials to ‘co-operate @ith them in raising 50,000 men, to be led by John C. Fremont—if with the consent of the federal government, well; but if not, then by the consent of the States, despite the federal governmeat. This amounts to little short of @ treasonable proposition to set up the au- thority of the States as paramount to the fe- deral authority. It is the very essence of the Southern rebellion. The idea of raising troops for this war, not only without the consent of the government, but in defiance of it, and plac ing such troops. under command of a general who has twice mutinied against the authority of his superiors, and has lately been removed from command for disobedience of orders and the issuing of fanatical proclamations; well known to be in antagonism to the policy of the Chief Magistrate of the republic and Com- mander-in-Chicf of the army, is palpably in- cipient treason, and ought to be looked after in time by the Advocate General. The speeches of the Governors in reply to the “National War Commitiee” are highly patriotic. But the ac- tion of the committee is full of the gravest sus- picion, and s sharp oye ought to be kept.upon the movements of all such Jacobin committees, which, If not checked ia time, would inaugurate the confusion, Knatchy snd bloody scones Which characterized the excesses of the French Revo- lution, Let treason be nipped in the bud. Taw New Scene ov Orurartions.— All eyes are now turned towards the Upper Potomac, and everything indicates that the nex# great contest at arms will be in that localitye The Ball's |. Bluff disaster is the only battle, thus far, in this war that has taken place in that section; but the signs of the times now clearly point to the fact that the great decisive battle of the war will soon be fought somewhere on the Upper Potomac? unless the rebels should take it into their heads to adopt a retrograde movement towards Richmond and thus confess their failure to carry oat their programme. A few days will devide this question. IMPORTANT CAPTURE. Another min gitat aitnaite, ‘Tosiaed with Arms, Ammunition, déc., Captured Of Charleston, de.

He gays the statement in the tolegraph report of last night, credited to the Santa Fo Gasetic @ August 23, “that great discontent exists among the population of Colorado,” is utterly false, One or two small Texan guerilla bands near (he New Mexioan line baye produced all the disturbances.

All of the leaders were more or leas acquainted with him, and alt learned to appreciate and respect him.
