Communication is interrupted south of I Baltimore, but we have reports of fighting near Washington, and of an attack by 15,000 rebels upon its northern fortifications: and rumors were afloat in Philadelphia la-t night that the Federal capital had fallen into the hands of the confederates. At 1 o’clock yesterday afternoon the rebels had possession of the railroad at Bladensburg, five miles from Washington, and were engaged in tearing up the track and destroying bridges. Seamen have been sent from New York ta Baltimore, to man the batteries for the defense of the latter city: and Gov. Seymour has ordere I the National Guard to hold themselves in readiness for immediate sei vice. Frederick is again occupied by the Fedetals. The rebels have collected immense numbers of horses, cattle, sheep and swine and are sending them into Virginia. There is no doubt but Gen. Franklin is a prisoner. The steamer Electric Spark, from New York to Havana and New Orleans, was captured Sunday afternoon, by the Florida. Secretary Fessenden had an interview | yesterday, at New York, with representatives of the banks of that city, Philadelphia and Boston, at which Mr. F. stated that ‘ he had no definite policy to announce, other than to adjust himself to the varying requirements of the public service.” The subject of a loan of SSO- - was referred to a committee of bank officers. Gold opened in New York yesterday at 282 and closed at 27.%a274.—[Chi. Times, July 13.
