Latest News.glorious News.Patterson in a trap.battle near Martinsburg. Ex-Governor Lowe, of Maryland, arrived in our city yesterday afternoon, from Winchester, by the Central cars. He states that on entering the stage at Winchester, on Thursday evening, reliable intelligence was received from Martinsburg to the effect that Gen. Johnston's command had engaged the forces of the United States, estimated at 20,000, at a place called Darkville, three miles this side of Martinsburg — that Gener, who will doubtless grind them to powder, unless the Federal commander has judged "discretion to be the better of valor," and surrendered. Of course the report we published yesterday morning, of Patterson's retreat across the Potomac into Maryland, was untrue. An order had been received at Martinsburg, from Gen. Johnston, to remove the women and children. It was not known by our informant what was the extent of loss on either side. We shall doubtless have full particulars to-da

er, Virginia, has forwarded the Baltimore American the following account of the skirmish between the pickets of the Federal and Confederate armies near Romney. It is an extract from a letter addressed to Hon. J. M. Mason, at Winchester, by a gentleman in Col. McDonald's regiment, dated Headquarters, 4 A. M., Romney, June 27, 1861. Yesterday (Wednesday) Richard Ashby left with a portion of his command, twenty-one strong, from Captain T. Ashby's company, on a scouting expedition to Maryland, dividing his command into three bodies. He, with six men, met a strong force (forty) of United States dragoons (regulars,) and made a running fight with them, killing a number of the enemy. Himself and three of his men are missing, but two escaping, and we fear that they have been killed, as their horses were led off by the enemy. Captain Ashby, who was also scouting with six men, hearing of the fight, immediately started in pursuit to rescue or avenge his brother. On his way he wa

Gen B--"Aha ! there you are — well, sir, you are where neither Judge Taney nor a habeas corpus can reach you — and if I had stayed in Baltimore another day, I would have made every mother's son of you take the oath or leave the town.

The Delaware Peace Convention. --A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun has the following in regard to the feeling for peace in Delaware. The Peace Convention held at Dover, Delaware, was a glorious one, attended by five thousand Delawareans, with a slight sprinkling of Cecil county men, from old Maryland. I have attended many political gatherings, and have never yet seen such an orderly and quietly conducted meeting — no intoxication, no load talking or excitement, but quiet determination of a people who know their rights and will maintain them.
