From tmk Uppkh Potomac. For the past
few days wo have had a variety of rumors, as to
the movements of the enemy across the Poto
mac as well as in Hampshire. It is believed,
however, that a division of bunks’ command,
• 000 strong, has again returned to the upper
Potomac, extending their lines from opposite
Shepherdstown to NYilliamsport.
brig. lien. Carson has gone forth to meet
tli m, and should they attempt to cross the Poto
mac, another glorious victory will be won by
<>ur invincible troops. Gen Carson will, for the
present, establish his headquarters in Martins
burg. It is believed by some that he will pass
die Rubicon, and cross into Maryland, but we
do not credit the report.
From Hampshire we have the exciting rumor,
Fuat Col. McDonald, and his entire command,
was surrounded a lew miles west of ftomuey and
captured. This news, however, we can scarcely
credit, and trust to be a biff to give reliable inst r

alists, before going to press.
P. S. Late and reliable news dirts’t from Col.

The eat* or Traitors.—There is no doubt
ihat the vilest treachery practiced on the
Muuassas Railroad to defeat a junction between
the force.* of liens. Johnston and Beauregard.—
The train oond iclor, when ceired and charged
with his treason, confessed to having been tarn
pared with by the enemy, und to have received
the sum of eight hundred dollars to contrive tu
defeat the union of our forces. So soon as he
arrived at Manases, he was tried and ordered
by Gen. Beauregard to be shoe. It is only by
•uch stern trod severe examples that treason
t’an he put down and our soldiers preserved from
destruction. Had the bribed wretch accomplish
.• i nis purpose, we mfgbt instead of recording a
victory, have been compelled to chronicle a fear
ful and disastrous deieat, eutailing consequen
ces too tick ning to dwell upon.
Our informant learned on the same day a like
stern visitation of justice wax meted out to a
recreant German, caught in the act of piloting
the enemy in their march on our lines. - Rich

We learn thal Gan. Thomas L. Price, of Jef

Office, from the President, the commission of

there, will “go forward.’ Gen. Price is a man
of great energy and decision of character, and
will sustain himself well in bia new position.
In addition to what is stated in an article which
is copied from the Hannibal Messenger, we have
most satisfactory assurances that Col. Doniphan
is resting quietly at home, attending to his pri

lion to join the rebel forces, or to prove disloyal

SignilitMt,
Bennett's Herald of Wednesday has the fol
lowing in its money article :
everybody is aware that several expeditions
of a mixed character are being titled “ut for op
erations on the Southern coast, and it is gener
ally understood that one of them at least is in
tended to seine and re-open to the commerce of
the world a leading cotton port. Wo recommend
our mercantile reader* to keep a very close watch
on this matter. The consequence ol a very suc
cessful landing of In ion troops at Mobile, Now
Orleans, Savannah or Pensacola, and the re-open
ing of such ports to the cotton trade, would bo
\ery Important, and might prove fatal to opera
tors who allowed themselves to he taken by sur
prise by events. The first *dop of the command
ing general t the Union forces, on occupying
*uch a port as we have mentioned, would be to
invite all loyal cittreoi of tbo South to rend
their cotton thither for shipment. It is likely
that the Invitation would be very largely accep
ted. There are, it is welt known, numbers of
! a ion men, throughout the South, who would
gladly accept a sale opportunity oi returning to
iheir allegiance. Half the people ot New Or
leans are reported to be in this frame of mind.
And besides iht-e, even the moat rebellions plan
ters must be in terrible straits for want of mo
ney. Au offer of fifteen or twenty cents a pound
for cotton, which is now lyiDg idle on their plan
tations, would try their attachment to the rebel
cau“e somewhat sorely. There must be large
numbers of planters in the Golf States whose
families are suffering for the waul of the necea
- tries of life, and yet who have hundreds of bales
f eotton ready for shipment, and worth, at pres
ent prices, from sso to SIOO a bale. It is pretty
certain that a sufficient number of these planters
woul i avail themselves of the re-opening of one
of their ports to create a perfect stampede in the
cotton market, and a very marked perturbation
ra foreign exchange. Operators will do well to
keep this pr pect in view.

UA terrible battle is at baud between the 400,-
0 troops ou the banks of the Potomac—
-200,000 on either side—a battle which will bo
greater than that of Waterloo, and will probably
be decisive against the party which 1 ‘ses it. The
mighty results depending on it will involve the
destiny of the people of this continent, and per
haps of modern civilization. If there should he
a partial defeat of the Federal army, let the abo
lition leaders who instigated the rebellion aud
the war Phillips, Garrison, Greeley, Beecher,
Cheever. Tappan. Joy, and their associates—
look out for another country, as this will ho a
total defeat of the Federal army, together with
the capture of Washington, let the anti-slavery
demagogues, who for the last thirty years have
teen stirring up the embers of strife, which re
sulted in the Southern revolt, look out as fa.-t as
they can for some asylum beyond the limits of
the American continent, tor this fa the only way
in which they can consult the safety of their
imperillod necks.
The Story of Billy Hulliraii,
Billy Mulligan was n broth of a boy iu Kil
lume \. aud could toss ott h.s poteen aud whirl
bis shilleltvh wi 1 the heat ov the bog. When the
War in America broke out, says Billy, says he,
“it’s a hero and a patriot I’ll bo, begorras,” and
so he borrow, train one and an it her, aud starts
across the blfasid old ocean, and uv a hue morn
ing puts himself right afore owld King Lincoln,
as bow Id as a lion. * It's meoeelf,” says Billy,
“which will crack the crowns of those same bloody
seceshers. Give me the command of yer army,
and I’ll whack the daylights out of ’em, ore ye
can light a pipe .” and with that ho fetches a
whoop and swing of his rhillelah, that would
have done your heart good to seo. “But Billy,”
says tho King, “ye are too jaw from the bogs to
take a command.” “And what for no,” says
Billy, “wid vor dam Dutchmen, yer Pules, Kye
talyans, ver Swiss, Dunes nnd French, wid big
feathers on their hoads, but nlvor a word of Eng
lish on their tongues. It’s metel f will talk and
tight too.’’
So, to cut a long story short, Billy found him
self of a tine morning, travelling to Missouri as
last as steam could take him, and a Colonel’s
commission in bis pocket. Hilly, says tho King
to Mulligan, u don't write, but put it through--
put it through “Begorra,” says Billy, “it’s
uieself that won’t write, for divil a letter do I
anow ; and as for putting it through, jest wait a
bit. aud ye may swallow all i lave behind me ‘
S > Billy found himself in Lexington, at tho head
of his Grand Army and Kecesbers all around
him. A rousing time they had of it ye may be
■>ure, wid thar big guus u roaring and thar little
funs a popping, am! Billy a hollering till he
was hoarse, and drinking poteen until he came
u his voice again. Such a clatter ami* smoke
arid dun never was heard av before. At last
they cut off his water; hut what use of water says
Billy, so long as there’s whiskey to bo had for
tho drawing - But by and by they drank up
the whiskey, amt then they had him sure enough.
They took Billy’s Grand Army, and sent every
ragamuffin of ‘em home with a foot mark in the
rear, but Billy himself, and all hi* sttirt. they
*hut up in a black hole, where he now lies, wbl
plenty of water but no whiskey at all and this
