THE EAGLE. '■ '— ' OFFICIAL I'Ai rill OF THE COUNTY. LOCAL & MISCELLANEOUS. £3T Dr. Vance, of the 47th, has our thanks for various Memphis papers. Rev. E. W. Erick will preach the funeral sermon of John W. Kern, on Sunday, July 27th, at half past 10 o’clock, at Salem chapel, Union township, near the residence of Dr. J. W. Pearce. jEF The August number of Peterson is a s s .fjerb number. It contains forty articles and fifty-six embellishments. “The Jacobite’s Daugh er,” a continued story, increases in interest with each succeeding, number, and is alone worth the subscription price. We will furnish it to our readers for 81.25. The westh r for the last two weeks,has been verv unfavorable for the fai mars to secure their harvest. There Las so much r in fallen in this vicinity that the ground is too soft to cut grain with* rnipers; consequently most of the gram will have to be cut by hand. A considerable portion of it has been blown I down by storms, so that the sickle, in many cases, has to be relied on. That cut is mostly standing in the shock, and the pr bability is that it will be considerably damaged by sprouting, before it can be secured. M Morgan’s Raid in Kentucky. The rebel guerrilla chief Morgau has greatly alarmed the people of Kentucky bv his appearance in the southern bordei of Kentucky. Sunday he was reported inarching on Lexington, with several thousand cavalry and two batteries, and that he had threatened Louisville wi h a visit. Troops were telegraphed for from Indiana and Ohio to repel him, and were promptly furnished. The last heard of him he had commenced retracing his steps, doubtless having been informed of the reception awaiting him. Congress to Adlourn on the tcth. *■ Washington, July 14.—The House passed the Senate resolution, adjourning Congress on Wednesday the 16th. From Fortress Monroe. Fort Monroe, July 11—The steamer Daniel Webster, going up James River, was fired ou opposite Fort Powhattan by the rebels. The bail passed through the staterooms. No one injured. The rebels have entirely forsaken the front of our army, and not a rebel cau be seen, and none are within several miles. The o- i pinion prevails that the rebels will soon be heard from in some other quarter No news from the army to day. Southern Items. Memphis, July 11. —The Granada Appeal states that the Seventh Tennessee went into the Richmond fight three hundred strong and came out without an effective mau. The same paper states that a foraging party o' 1,000 of General Curtis’ command was attacked and nearly all killed; but few captured alive. Another version of the affair reverses the case. A Vieksburg dispatch of the 4 h states that the bombardment is tremendous and uneeaS'ng. It is estimated that the enemy fired 37,000 shot or shell. Our loss so (ar is six kiiled and one wounded.— The inhabitants have taken refuge in the works. Should the invaders land, we will drive them back at the point of the bayonet. Vicksburg can not be taken. The Late Rebel Raid at Murfreesboro. Nashville, July 14—The Unionists los’ 830,000 worth of army stores at MurAecahoao. The Union force engaged were the Third Minnesota, Colonel Leslie, six companies of the Ninth Michigan, Col. Parkhurst, three hundred strong: the Third Battalion of the Pennsylvania Seventh Cavalry, two hundred and twenty-five; Hewiit’s Battery, sixty men; the Fourth Kentucky, twenty-five; in all about one thousand four 1 undred men. The rebel force consi ted of one regiment of mounted infantry, a regiment of Texan Rangers, and Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee cavalry, between three thousand and four thousand, mostly armed with carbines and shot-guns. Their loss in killed and wounded is heavier than ours. The Pennsylvanion Seventy-third lost in killed, wounded and missing, two hundred men. The only- officers whoes. caped, as far as reported, are Captain J F. Andrews, Captain C C. McCormick, and Lieutenant H. D. Moonev. The Commissary and Quartermaster's Departments were recently replenished with new clothing, &c., all of which has fallen into the han is of the enemy. Captain Rounds—Provost Marshal of Murfreesboro— end guard, shot nine rebels before surrendering. It is Reported that Gen. John C. Breckinridge, vol. Forrest and Co'. Rains, of Sashville, commanded the rebel forces at urfreesboro It is also reported thst they have taken Loreigu, fifteen miles from Nashville, and that Gen. tJirhy Smith is advrncing on i

, Nashville from Chattanooga with 15,000 i men. Murfreesboro’ was barricaded with ‘ bales of bay, and the National shells set ■ fire to many of the Houses. Colonel Lester is falling back toward .Nashville. Union reinforcements are I coming up by special trains. Tha Twen-ty-eighth Kentucky has just arrived. — They were cheered as they passed thro’ the streets. The Secessionists confidently expect the arrival of the rebel forces some time I to-night. Batteries have been placed on Capitol Hill and other points. There may be music in Nashville bei fore this reaches the Herald. Colonel Leslie surrendered al Murfreesboro’ at four o’clock P. M. The Minnesota Third, and Hewitt’s Battery were included, the latter for want of ammunition. Men are lying on the sidewalks asleep, holding their hor’es’ bridles in their hands expecting every moment to be called into action. Dr. Roback’s Scandinavian Remedies.
