COXFKUKliATKS IX PENNSYLVANIA.iien»ral Lie's army has occupied, without

resistance, tlic flourishing town of York, theentre and capital of a great county which

is the garden of Pennsylvania; situated on

an i was at least premature. «

The plans <>i Lee are still a secret to our '

whether hi.- intention be to establish himself ;quietly iu the. richest part of the Keystone t

State. and make its fertile valleys support his ]army, until he can force Hooker to a battle. 1

It was an inspiring si^ht.As they halted in front <>f their rendezvous,a number of soldiers fathered around, andone of tbem said witli manly indignation.:"Pretty iiurd on you. ohl cooks,'' (irreverent,but forcible) "tohavecoine out." This.neighborhoodhas sen t sixty men,and here arc sixteenold ones. These old patriots are to be armedwith the old Hint-lock muskets, and if theyhave to go into the trenches they will "do ordie." you may be sure. It may be interestingtestate that thirteen are Republicans and threeDemocrats.The "Times" has, editorially, " a word to

Pennsylvania." After alluding to her population,and the number of soldiers she hasfurnished to the army, the "Times" says:

" Under these circumstances, and to preventthe bloody horror that threatens thecommonwealth of Pennsylvania, one wouldimagine that her people would rush to armsen masse to drive the invaders from her soilbofore thev obtained a foothold nnnn If"- *

Such is what tho Keystone State ought toiwve-done>; but see what the "Times" &\ys it,is doing, and lias done:"We arc amazed at the apathy that seems to

prevail amoug the people of Pennsylvania..Panic and apathy, apathy and panic, arc theburden of the successive telegrams and lettersthat reach us. At the first appearance of Jonkins,the whole State seems to have been onits hack.we are glad it did not fall on itsbelly. When ho disappeared, they rubbedtheir eyes and fell again into unconcern. Whenhe reappeared, they were once more struck..And now that they have had time to gather uptheir wits and braids themselves l'or work, wesee those of them who cannot be said'to be altogetherapathetic, engaged >'» paltry argumentsas to whether their term of service shallbe a week or two, or a month or two, more orless."The fortnight they have already lost has

been invaluable to the enemy. It should havebrought at least a hundred thousand armedIVnnsYlvaiiians to Hanisburg. Within fourlays after New York had heard the news ofthe invasion, this State had sent nineteenregiments to help our Southern sister.fifteenf which were from this city. We have notiieard of fifteen regiments being sent fromPhiladelphia, nor half of fifteen, nor live..We doubt if all Pennsylvania has yet fifteenregiments in the field."What is the cause of this? Is it fbar of

the rebels, or confidence in Hooker's army, orIndifference ? Fe»r of the rebels would bepusillanimous and "disgraceful in a populousState like Pennsylvania. It is well to havejontidcucc in Hooker's army, but events haveproved that it will not do to confide entirelyii it for the defence of the North."

It isu lu>t plain that the Czar is alarmed by thePolish movement, and by the extent andimount of the sympathy exhibited by Europe'or that ancient people. Austria adheres tothe policy of Prance in this matter. TheParis correspondent of tho London "Times,"who is generally accurately informed, states(under date of June 10th) that a despatch re.ceivcd the foregoing day at the Austrian Embassyannounced u courier on his way to Pariswith an acceptance of the French Dote toRussia.Mexican affairs excite great interest at Paris.

A salute from the cannon of the Iuvnlides hasannounced the fall of Puebla.

favorably for the administration as was expected; particularly in Paris. Neverthelessthe elections in the several departments, andoutside of the great towns, have been veryfavorable to the (Jovcrnmcut: which is still infaet omnipotent in France.

TUB YANKEES BELOW.Reports were current on yesterday that the

enemy had advanced a portion of his forcesup the Paniunkev. and crossed them intollanover, in the direction of Old Church..The movement, however, was of little impor.tunce,if really made. Later reports confirmthe belief that (Sen. His, finding the feint onRichmond a failure, is sending his main forceacross the country towards A<|tiia Creek, inorder to reinforce Hooker. It is hoped that thismovement will not he permitted to succeed.The York River train still runs down as far

as jleadow station. Passengers who came uplast evening report no important move liasbeen made by the enemy in any direction, andthat if a force has been sent towards the Rappahannoclc. it was for the purpose f reconnaissanceand plunder. The whole force is believedto lie at and near the White House. Aprisoner who was brought up. said, with a

stunuing air of confidence, that Hon. Dix was

only waiting for reinforcements, and wouldtake Richmond in a few days.FROM THE WHITE HOUSE AXD VICI X I T Y.A scout arrived in the city yesterday morning,bringing in a negro belonging to John B.

Vaden. of.sew Kent, for ttjiom a reward offive hundred dollars lias been ottered. Thisnegro joined McC'lcllan's army during the battiesaround Richmond last summer, went withhim to Yorktown in his retreat, and returnedto the White House with Gen. Rix. He was

caught, at Tannicithe Vmien's, in Xef Kent..'The fiegro wtts committed to jaH by theMayor.

This scout had been out eighteen days. liesavs there are no Yankees at all on the ForgeBridge Road. He had counted between Williamsburgand the White House seventy-livewagons, then ten pieces of artillery, then somesixteen more wagons, and following them eightpieces of artillery.

lliere are thirty-two regiments, consistingin all of about twenty thousand men. The4th Delaware numbers about four hundredami fifty men, and the ldlst New York sixhundred and forty.'

The Colonel refused todo it, saying that tins bush-whackershad been in town that morning, and that hoexpected them every moment to attack his rear.Uur men were continually hanging on the

track of the enemy and harrasing them. (Jen.Porter was at Piascund Bridge, forty milesfrom Biclunond, and says that the Federaltroops cannot advance on Richmond, for feartheir rear should be left unguarded, all theavailable force had been withdrawn from Norfolk,and the rebels might at any moment captureboth Norfolk and Portsmouth.The Yankees were destroying property of

every kind, and carrying ofl'horses and otherstock, and devastating the country in everypossible manner. The Yankees have swornnever to-spare smother bush-whackcr.

From these points he has directaccess to the rear of Washington, and can, byan expert movement, destroy the railroad betweenthe capital and Annapolis Junction, unlesshe should underrate the force which it is *,,thought has been concentrated to oppose himin this design. A prominent transportation ucompany is to-day refusing to receive valua- j,hie articles for shipment between Baltimoreand Washington. If ilieoiieiny has gained a ,>

position of so much importance upon Hooker's ].rear there is cause for apprehension concerningthe safety of Tyler's force which lias been vholding Maryland Heights. Although it ishardly probable that Tyler has been captured, pit is possible that his communication with the tlArmy of the Potomac in Virginia, and withthe force under Gen. Schcnek, have been bro- r,ken. A flank movement on the part of Gen. cHooker across the three lower fords may resultdisastrously for the enemy by isolating ],his right from his new base of operations upon 1the upper Potomac. Whatever truth there :lmay be in the report of Lee's proximity toWashington, there is still opportunity for re- ypclling his further advance. 1,

THE PANIC AT IIARRISUCRU. i;IIarri.siickc, Pa.. Juno 25.2.30 P. M..

During the whole of last night and up to the r

present time, long trains of wagons, laden withgoods and household furniture, have entered r

the city. The fanners, are flocking in with B

their horses, also any number of contrabandsof all ages and sexes. fThere are about 000 contrabands between 11

here and Carlisle on the way. The Jews andmany others arc packing up their goods, ready !l

for shipment. r

The matter of declaring martial law is underconsideration, to prevent all -the able-bodiedinert leaving the city. This is considered as *

the oidy mode of compelling hundreds of 0

persons, whose only desire is to make moneyout of the misfortunes of their fellow-creatures, 11

to remain and defend the city. hThe rebel column was slowly advancing this

morning on Carlisle. *5. i».

What i- it. in short, that con-,siitutcs the military superiority of the Southat this moment? What gives it a veteran anddisciplined army, equal in number to.

Why areour young men called oil'from their business ata day's notice to repulse "raids'' three hundredmiles away? \\ hy is a great, powerfulsociety like ours thrown into convulsions bythe opposition of a brigade of hushwackers, itsbusiness men driven to their wits' ends, andits chiefs forced to make appeals to the patriotismand devotion of private citizens such asarc usually the la-t resource of despairingenergy ?The answer to all these questions is simple.

We are engaged in an enterprise which requiresthat a well drilled, well disciplined andwell organized army, ruled by one code, commandedby one chief, should be maintainedtill it is accomplished. The South recognizedthis great fact early in the w ir. and we didnot: and hence it is that it i.- astonishing theworld by the greatness of its performance as

Allthe thirty days' men that Gov.

If people arenot satisfied of this now, they never will besatisfied, and we solemnly call upon the Governmentto apply to the national courage anddetermination," the supreme and final test ofraising, by draft, for the war, as many men asit needs. To delay it one minute longer isworse than weakness, and if the country willnot submit to this, it will prove, beyond allquestion, that it is sick of fighting, and is forpeace on any terms; and whenever this is

He made his way direct tothe coast, and when at Land Bridge, which isabout fifteen miles below Cape Henry, he destroyedseven rebel salt works.
