The Position

Tlio country has been grcatly excited for a few daysover a reported mamwoth invasión of l'ennsylvania by the rebels, and even an attack upon and buruing of Harrisburg has boen anaounccd with the reniovu! of State archioves, spoeie from banks, etc., to a place of Bafety. Thursday morning wa simmer down the great scare to tliis. Leo's and Hooker's arraies have both lef the line of the lïappahanuoek, and atarted ou a oh ase for Washington, and no ono kuows where. Gen Milroy has been beatón at cncstcr and fallón back to Harper's Ferry. The rebels have advanced via Martinsburg, Williamsport, and Hagerstown into Pennsylvania.and are raiding around Chambersburg, sccuring horses and other valuablo supplies. ïhia force- of cavalry - is nowarrowed down to 2,000. There has boon no great fight at Buil Run, and Hooier bas uot lost two divisions. Washington is in no immediato áanger, and no greaf, battle is imminent. We tliink tliat the object of the rebels is to secare the harvest in the Shenandoah Valley, gather supplies from the Pennsylvania and Maryland border, stop troops from being sent Southwest, and then retrace their steps unless a, geueral engagement is forced upon thom. New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, are rallying uobly, and sending their militia to neet the invaders. From Vicksburg and Port Iludson there is nothiug really new. And the same from Kentuoky and Tennessee. Reinforcements have been seut in large nubmers to Gbant, and we presume to JOHNSTONE. fcP Washington rumora sny that Col. Fokney has advised that Geo. McClellan be callee! to thü command oí' the array of the Potomac, and that others are urging similar aotion. - When Washington is really in danger McClellan will be callad there, and not bofore. He i.s now organizing and sending forward troopa from New York. It is said many of theregiments just disoharged are now ready to take the field under him. jL3T üp to the lGth inst tho Traasurer of this county had paid out of the Volunteer Relief Fuad $45,200. Relief is now being extended from that fuad, by tho several Supervisors, to the amouut of about $2.500 or $3.000 per moüth.- At the time named there was outstanding of Voluntoer Relief Orders- the "change" ourreney- paid out as cash and entering into the above aggregate a little over $11.500. The redemption of this eurrency is provided for, but being, considered one of the best substitutes for the missing specie a portiou of it is likely to keep afloat. JSS" We give place in our columns to-day to the resolutions adopted by the immense Democratie State Convention held in Ohio. They are worthy a careful reading, as a calm and cundid espression of tijO views held by probably a ïnajority of the peoplo of the great State of Ohio. If the convention had acted as wisely.iu making nominations it would have better satisfied the entireDeraooi-acv of tho country. We think that Vallasdigham should not have been brought out for Governor, and that the great principie at stake could have been as firmly and more successfully maintained by nominating another candidate.
