To-day Professor Lowe went into the rebels' country as far as Fall's Church with his balloon, from which place he made several ascensions.
He was so far towards Fairfax Court House that his appearance in the air created a report here that the rebels had an opposition balloon.
He was escorted into the interior by one company of the Eighth New York regiment. Major Colburn, of the Connecticut regiment, accompanied Professor Lowe in his voyage, and made a sketch of the enemy's country that was so correct, that Virginians who were familiar with the vicinity of Fairfax Court House, at once recognized it, and named the roads, lanes, streams, and dwellings.

Maps of the whole country occupied by the enemy will be taken by these balloon ascensions, under the superintendence of Professor Lowe.--N. Y. Herald, June 26.

It had become a war of extermination.
Utter destruction might be possible, or even imminent, but submission was as far off as ever.
Persons who listened to the excited railers on either side might think that there was no alternative but to let a flood of blood pass over the land; but, at that calm distance, it might perhaps be wisely calculated that such voices did not represent the mind of the American people.
Both parties ought by this time to be tired of the strife.
There had been blood enough shed, fortunes enough made, losses enough suffered, and wrongs enough inflicted and endured.
The opportunity ought to be either present or at hand when some potent American voice, prudently calling, Peace, might awaken an universal echo.
Martial law was proclaimed in the cities of Norfolk

The State of New York responded nobly to the call for troops to drive the rebels from the soil of Pennsylvania and Maryland. Twenty regiments at this time had been armed, equipped, and supplied with subsistence and transportation, and had gone to Harrisburgh and Baltimore.
Sixteen of these regiments moved from New York, two from Brooklyn, and two from Buffalo.
The following is a list of the regiments that had left: The Seventh, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth, Twenty-second, Twenty-third, Twenty-eighth, Thirty-seventh, Forty-seventh, Fifty-second, Sixty-ninth, Sixth, Seventy-fourth, Seventy-first, Sixty-fifth, Fifty-sixth, Fifth, Thirty-second, Fifty-fifth, Fourth artillery, and a consolidated regiment from Staten Island.
The Raleigh (N. C.) Standard of this date favored a convention of all the States, to procure peace, either by reconstruction of the Union or by peaceable separation.--Rev. R. I. Graves, of Hillsboro, N. C., who was committed on the fourth of Febr
