The escape of the rebels across the Potomac is fully confirmed. After they were drives from Nolan's Ford they divided sand crossod the river in smal! bodies at different points. ‘Two farmers, taken prisoners by them at Mercersburg, ‘wore paroled at the river and arrived here to-day. The farmers report that Genoral Stuart and General “Wado Hampton were both with the expedition. The s@avairy force was a de‘achmnt from Virginia and South Carolinas regiments.

Ths c-n only be accounted for upon the suppo- «sition that the horses were too much exhansted to war- faut gach an attempt.

There was, in faet, nothing which could be -eatied even askirmish,and butfor the artillery prac tice obtained ovr troops might as well have been at Harper's Ferry. Anecdotes and statements connected with the raid are ‘aumerous. Captain A'fred Schley, of the Fifth Maryland wegiment, who was at home at Liberty ona furlough, ‘wie aroused by the entrance of the troops into the town, and on going out and seeing soldiers dressed in United ‘States uniform overcoyts, took them for our own soldiers, wand invited the officers to dismount and enter his house for vefreshments, informing them of his name and rank ‘He waa ordered to fall in as a prisoner, and taken away with them, and has mot since been beard from At ‘Woodsboro they entered ani robbed three secesh stores of their Coutents. They also seized about twenty of the «citizens of the place, mostly young men, whom they took away with them. These had not returned at lavest accounts. General Stuart and several others othe «rive pal officers remained at Urbana untii morning to rest and refresh thomselves. “They with one comp ny took this route, the main body passing via diyattsville. At least twenty Pennsylvanians have been here to-day, having como with tho expectation that the rebels would be captured here or hereabouts, and that they would only thave to idontify their horses and return home rejoicing. Of this number six not only had their horses stolen, but wore carried off as prisoners, They were taken to Pooles ville and kept in the rear under guard during the caunon- adiug, until Gnally the guard was ordere! away and they availed themselves of the opportunity to travel rapidly in ‘the opposite direction. These modestly requested, as a partial compensation for their losees and rufferings, that Coionol Alien would allow them to take the seven horses captured yesterday, but he ‘could not see it. One horse was identified and reclaimed by the owner. t here and along the lines of the army to-day. ‘Mauch mortification is felt at the successful escape of the arebels from the nets that were spread for them but Haxnsuvre, Pa., Oct, 18, 1862.

It is said that sho fatiure to arrest the escape of J. E. B. Stuart and his bold rebel cavairy in their dash through Pemnsylvapia to Maryland, is attributed to the divwion commander at Poolesville, to whom instructions had besa sent by Genoral YcCiellan, stating thas Stuart would probably retreat upon the Hine which he subsequently pursued, and suggested a disposition of the forces which would inevitably have cut off his passage @oross tiie Potomac, A aicict investigation is now belmg conducted ia refe- rence to this matter, with the viow of fixing the guilt and assigning punishment where it is merited. From the facts which are already made public, it ts evideut that General McClellan took proper measures te Prevent the return of Stuart to Virginia, and the fauls must be with the subordinate officers who failed to obey bis ordors or appreciate his suggestions. The march of Stuart’s cavalry from Chambersburg to the fords of the Potomac, near the mouth of the Mono- cacy creek, hag no parallel for rapidity. Honce General McClvllau’s statement, that they would be intercepted, did not come to pass, although General Pleasanton, after. nearly ag rapid a march, was but two hours-bebind them There seems to have been some inertness of the troops that were sent to Frederick to oppose tho southward course of Stuart. Burch’s postal map shdws that tho dis- tance from Chambersburg to the fords of the Potomac by the roads taken by the rebels is rising ninety miles, which was travelled in thirty-six houra. The tollowing are some of the most remarkable easos of rapid marches om military record:—Roman infantry marched frequently a distance of twenty miles im five hours, each soldier carrying from fifty to eighty pounds of baggage. Cvesars legions marched four hundred and fifty, jeagues in twenty-three days. In 1800 Mackdonald marehed forty miles in a single day, crossing riversand climbing mountains, Claual, after most extraordinary efforts at the battle of Salamauco, rotreated forty miles in twelve hours. In 1814 Napoleon marehed his army, for the purpose of succor Paris, seventy. five miles in thirty-six hours. General Crawford, in Spain, marched three thousand men sixty-two miles m twenty-+ix hours. In 1803 Wellington’s cavalry in India marched sixty miles in thirty-two bours. Hefure the battle of Turruckabad, intindia, the English cavalry, under Lord Lake, are said to have marched seveaty miles in twenty-four hours. ‘The recent rebel raid into Pennsylvania and Maryland has demonstrated the necessity for the government keep- ing properly protected and in running order the line of railroad from Bultimore to the Ohio river. The dam- ages accruing to the goverument, independently of the joss of the loyal people who bave suffered depredations | are infinitely greater than would be the cost of maintaining a force sufficient to guard for months the whole line of this road and prevent its obstruction. It is a subject of much regret bere that its operations have been obstructed, and it is urged by the best frionds of the government that the road should at al! hazards be kept open. The whole country north of the Potomac would be sufficiently protected by the maintainance and protection of this lime of road, but it nas been shown where it is allowed to be closed there has been nothing to pre- vent the entrance of rebel marauders into the loyal coun- ties of Maryland. The public interest loudly demands ‘bat the road from Baltimore to Wheeling should be kept open and constantly in rupuing order. The matter has beou brought to the attention of the government, and will probably be acted upon when the army of Generk! McClellan drives that of General Lee from its position in Eastern Virgioia, and relieves that partof the country from the presence of a rebol force. The Washington Star of this evening says:— A man who aarived here this morning from near Conrad's Fery states that he was in the presence of General Stuart a few minutes before be crossed the river with his marauding force in retreat from Pounsylvania, Stewart informed him, in @ sarcastic manner, he had fooled the whole party, but regretted ho had not accomplished what was intended when ho started, as he was expected to reach Frederick, Md., destroy the government stores at that point, then destroy the bridge over the Monocacy river; but that all things taken into consideration, he had carried out bis programme with much success. Stuart’s meu and horses lo.ked extremely exhausted, but the former were in high gleo, and from the looks of the clothing on their horses, and that which they had on their persons, and that whicn they had tied on their extra stolen horses, which numbered about 1 000, ‘@ change would be very acceptable, especially hoes'and boots, of which they had a large quantity.

Tho late tidivgs from the recent battle ground in Kon tucky give intimations that the rebels are coucentrat ing at Camp Dick Rovinson, in thatState. This camp has been remarkablo in the history of the rebellion, but more particularly with regard to the State of Kentucky. Yt is situated on Dick's river, about five miles from Dafville, and is finely located and well watered. Shortly after the actual commencement of the war, inaugurated at Fort Sumter, the camp was established by the late General Nelson. The following is a briof account of its progress, published in # Cincinnati paper of Au- gust, 1861:— Military camps have arisen very rapidly within week past in Kentucky. They arose, too, with ther tam silence as rapidity, Winich gave somewhat Spontaneous character. It seems the people as-well = the military companies go into the work with peculiar avidity. ‘The largest of these camps ere there are now Dotween 7°00 7,000and 8,000 men. in that camp three full regiments of Kentuck- commanded by Colonels Fry, Bramlet and Garrard; one régiment nearly full (no command one full regi- ment of cavalry, under command of nel Wolford. Each regiment numbers one thousand men, and all thoroughly armed and we cane |. There is one full regi- ment, and anoth y full, of troops from ‘Tenuossee, unde ‘command of Golonel Bird. The Tennes- seeans formed a new camp, a day or two ago, about a quar- ter of a mile from tho main camp. General Nelsow command of the post. The accessions are rapid. Some time after this date, Colonel (now Major General) George H. Thomas, of the Second cavalry, proceeded thither, having received the appointment of brigadier general of volunteers, and assumed the command of the post, General Nelson moving to another camp. It was from this camp that Génerai Thomas commenced his mareh southward , which march resulted in the battle of Logan’s Cross Roads, at which General Zollicoffer was Killed. {t has also since been a point ef occupation and camp of instruction for the loyal troops of Kentucky. Tt has again Beceme rather a prominent place ; but this time the rebel, and not the Union forces, hoid the camp: A despatch from Louisville, dated October 7, stated tho rebels had evacuated Lexington and were laying in a gtock of provisions at that place. ‘The despatch reads thus :— The rebels took and gent to Camp Dick Robinson 7,000 barrels of pork from Chenault & Co. ked on their own acoount and for Ppt ‘ties , most! jonists. They also took $90,000 worth of jeans and linseys from Oldham, Scott & Ce., which they have manufactured into clothing. After the battle of Perryville the rebels were reported as retroating to Camp Dick Robinson. It is therefore not at all unlikely that the next battle may be fought on the ground where Nelson inaugurated his first camp. THE COUNTRY AROUND THE CAMP. ‘The country around Camp Dick Kobinson is diversified, undulating and billy, and the soil js very productive. Un the opposite side of Dick's river the soil is very deep and rich and is underlaid with limestone rock. A good turn- pike road runs very noar to the camp, and loads south- wardly to Danville and northerly to Nicholasville, the terminus ef the railroad to Louisville, via Lexington and Frankfort. The population of this part of the country is about one-fourth slaves, but is not very numerous in comparisgn to its extent, THE CAMPAION IN THE SOUTHWEST.
