All were aroused from their slumbers about four o'clock by the shot and s

Fifty dollars reward. --Ran away from the subscriber, on the night of the 7th inst., a negro boy named MacKENZIEenzie. He is 22 years of age, low, heavy set, with bad looking eyes.

The latest from the North. We have received Baltimore papers to the 10th inst., through the kindness of a friend. The following is a summary of the news, as made by the Baltimore News Sheet. In the Senate of the United States a bill was reported from the Committee on Military Affairs, to provide for receiving Negroes into the military service of the United States, and declaring all such as were slaves to be thereafter free, any law, usage, or custom, to the contrary notwithstanding. The bill to amend the law calling out the militia by providing for drafting, in case it becomes necessary hereafter, was called up and debated. An amendment was introduced to include Negroes, and giving the President power to organize them into battalions, regiments, brigades, and divisions, according to race or color, as the public interest may require. The discussion was continued up to the hour of adjournment. In the House of Representatives, an act, supplementary to the bill manumiti

The whole country bordering on the White river is reported to be in arms, except those persons who have fled from the operations of the conscription law, which is enforced in the most rigorous manner.

He is now thirty miles off, as the crow flies, instead of five, as he was on the 25th of June, and it is precisely at this point that our danger begins We have a painful recollection of Manassas, of the period of listlessness and inaction which followed that great triumph, and of the almost fatal consequences to which it led. We cannot believe that our authorities will pursuit a repetition of the torpor which then invaded them, when they reflect upon the disasters of the last winter. A victory unimproved, is, in almost all cases, equal to a signal defeat. In some cases it i

On Thursday June 26th, the powerful and thoroughly equipped army of the enemy was entrenched in works vast in extent and most formidable in characters within sight of our Capitol. To-day the remains of that confident and threatening host lie upon the banks of James river, thirty miles from Richmond, seeking to recover under the protection of his gunboats, from the effects of a series of disastrous defeats. The battle beginning on the afternoon of the 26th June. above Mechanicsville, continued until the night of July 1st, with only such intervals as were necessary to pursue and overtake the flying foe.
