V. a ... and having every appearance 01 an English Man of War, ran the blockade this P. M., under the following circumstances; I harl sent the Minora to windward to speak a schooner standing in under sail. The smoke of a steamer was discovered bearing about south-east and standing directly for us. Obsvering she was firing black smoke, i immediately got under way and stood toward her, signaling to the Minora to chase at discretion. We soon neared the steamer in company with the Minora, who, as she approached, gradually hauled to the windward. When abeam of him about 100 yards distent, 1 hailed him but reeeived no answer. I then fired a shot across his bow. He still ranged ahead without stopping. Still thinking him au English Man of War, I fired two more shots across her bow, and then directed a shot at him, which went -over, between his fore and main masts. He soon hauled down his flag and turned his guns to bear on us, litit having no flag to fight under was afraid to fire. We continued to fire at him, assisted by the Minora and one of the mortar schooners, but by his superior speed and unparalleled auduoity, he managed to escape. We sent our shot all around and over him, and several of our shell and the Minora's struck him. Witbjgreat mortification. Your obedient servat.t, ,S Geo. H. Prehel, I J " t y Cpmantiejr. .

In the absence of later advices, the English papers continued to speculate on the position of affairs in Ameriea at the time of the Anglo Saxons peparture.

SPECIAL TO TRJBl'KE. Washington, Sept 21st We just, received a brief dispatch from one of our special correspondents who returned this P. M. to Frederick from qnr advance lines. Heavy firing wai going on all day yesterday. He says both cannonading and musketry were heard, and many wounded men were being bronght in. Oar troops had crossed the Potomac in large force and were fighting on the other side. The rest of the array had advanced to the river. Iu tlie fighting so far we had decidedly tlie advantage of the rebeK Yesterday we captured a whole brigade of them 2,000 in number. This y ur correspondent asserts upon the testimony of his own eyes.

A dis patch dated opposite Slieppardstowu this noon, says everything is quiet there today. During last night there was considerable firing between our piekets and those of the enemy on the other side of the river. At six o'clock this morning a number of the enemy, supposed to be a brigade, showed themselves opposite a bluff and tired a volley of musketry into our artillery camp. t)ur batteries, tapts. Waterman's. Martin sand Hazlitt's, soon opened fire on the rebels, causirjg thera to disperse. This afternoon a flag of truce was sent over the river, asking permission to bury our dead, which was granted. It is believed the enemy must be out of artillery ammunition, froi:. their not responding to our guns. For some time there has not been a rebel seen on the opposite bank It is thought they have all fallen back. It would Lot be proper to state the disposition or Movements of onr forces, but it is probable important news may be expected from McClellan's army within the next day or two. Officers of Gen. Couch's diusion, who left Harper's Ferry at lU o'clock this morning, retort everything quiet there, and no signs of the rebel forces in that vicinity. Ijirge numbers of rebel soldiers scattered about the mountains r snvren. dering themselves to our officers. Tlie rebel army appears to be completely demoralized ucd in process of dispersion. Numbers of wounded continue to pass through here he .rly en route for the North. It is believed by our citizens that the rebels lost at least 5,(X0 men by desertion during (he raid into Mary land. SPECIAL TO THE UERALD. Washington, Sept 21. A number of wouuded officers arrived here during the day; among them is Hooker. His wound, only so far 'as it is liable to superinduce lockjaw, is not serious. The General is attended by his Staff. Mr. Chase and Other members of the Cabinet manifest apprehensions touching the condition of Hooker. It is inferred tiiat it is intended to give him an important commit nd, perhaps the Western Department.

Official Dispatch. Headquarters. Icka Mississippi, 1 September 20, 1862. To Major General Halleck, General-in-Chief: General Rosencrnns with Generals Stanley and Hamilton's divisions and Mizoner's cavalry attacked Price south of this village about two hours before dark yesterday. We had a sharp fight until night closed in. General Ord was to the north with 5,000 men and had some skirmishing with the enemy. This morning the fight was renewed by Rosencrans who was nearest the town, but he found that the enemy had been evacuating during the night Hamilton and Stanley's cavalry are in pursuit. The loss on either side in killed and wounded is from four to five hundred. The enemy's loss intents, arms, &c, will be large. We have taken 250 prisoners. I have reliable intelligence that it was Price's intention to move over into East Tennessee. In this he has failed. Among the enemy's loss are Geu. Little, killed, and .Whitfield, wounded Price' force was about 18,000. Signed U. S. Grant.

. From Mrt lrllan's Army. Battle Field; Antietam. Sept 20. A specinl messenger to the Associated Press brings the following; Yesterday our lines advanced toward the enemy. When the discovery was made the rebel army had commenced retreating, during the night, leaving pickets along the entire line to prevent us from gaining any knowledge of their movements. Those left behind generally surrendered as our skirmisher, advanced. The rebel reinforcements expected on Friday, did not arrive. They decided to cross the river, as they were in no condition to fight another battle such as the 17th. They crossed the river at different points in the vicinity of Sharpsburg. There are several fords within two miles of that place, although it has been represented to the contrary. . Onr cavalry started in pursuit as soon as the rr-treat was known. Beyond capturing a few hundred stragglers, they inflicted but little injury upon the enemy, About a'mile from the river, quite a contest took plnce between a part of Porter's corps which was in the advance, and the enemy, who were in possession of two guns. The rebels were finally compelled to nbandon them, one of which they .-piked. Their trains all got off. They seemed to have taken position on the other side, but did not reply to our guns this afternoon. In their retreat the enemy loft 500 of their wounded at houses and barns where they had established hospitals. A captured negro who knows Jackson well, says he saw him with his arm in a sling on Friday upon the field. One of the prisoners states that Joe Johnston died recently at Richmond, from wounds received at Fair Oaks. Frederick, Sept 21. The 4th Michigan, with a few men from Syke's Brigade, crossed the river at Shepardstown ford late Friday afternoon to reconnoitre. They met with stout resistance from the enemy but succeeded in reaching this side with but slight loss, bringing with them (oar rteiooa of artillery captured from the rebels. The occupation of the Virginia shore was again-attempted this morning, but with less success. Brig. Gen. Barnes, with his own and a portion of Syke's brigade, some cavalry with two batteries, crossed and took poa tion on the Virginia shore. . Shortly after tne troops had been placed in position the enemy emerged with a line of infantry a mile long. The troops soon became engaged when the order was given to retire, which was done in good order. The enemy followed after us closely. When the enemy came within range of our fire we opened upon them from twenty pieces of artillery posted along the Maryland bank with such effect that they were obliged to retire. -- ' Their lo ;s mu6t have been heavy as the explosion of our shells were seen to make large gaps in their lines. Our loss in killed, wounded and prisoners was about 150. Information was received here to-day of the evacuation of Harper's Ferry Their artillery was removed from the line ofthe Potomac last night It is belived their army is falling back in the direction of Charleston and Winchester. Frederick, Md., Sept 20. Shelling was kept up at the enemy across the river until Friday. A report eame into Frederick that the enemy was crossing at Williamsport A pert of our army was sent to meet them Heavy firiug was heard at noon to-day in the direction of Sharpsburg. No intelligence has been received yetThere is no evidence that either Lee Or Longstreet has been wounded. Ten thousand stand of arms were found on the held belonging to the ene pv . iV?A.A -J W Headquarters Armt Potomac, 1 Saturday Evening Sept 20. ) The firing heard last evening in the direction ot Williamsport, turns out to have been a roaid of Stuart's cavalry across to Potomac Friday night into Maryland at that point One regiment of infantry and several pieces of artil, lcrr, a force sent up to drive him back arrived near the town in the afternoon. The firing heard was principally from the rebel guns. During the night they recrossed into Virginia and this morning, they had disappeared from the opposite shore. The work of hurrying the dead still continues. They average about 1,000 per day. To-morrow will probably finish it Maryland Heights were yesterday occupied by a Federal foree. The indications are that the rebels are continuing their retreat in Virginia. Divine worship was held at headquarters this evening, Bishop Whipple of Minnesota presiding. Philadelphia, September 21. Governor Curtiu t.degraphs from H-tgerstown, all military organizations to wait at home for farther orders. Probably all danger is removed, the rebel army being in full retreut up the Shenandoah!

From Philadelphia. pni r ADKi.PHiA. September 20. Tlie Inqnirer hfiH the following, dated Frederick. September 2twn: I am just from the front of our army. The rebels scccec.-Jpd cossing with their entire army at Blackford's Ford, three miles east of Sharpsbur- between 9 o'clock Thursday night aud day-break Friday morning. This morning we were engaged - in shelling the woods on the opposite bank, preparatory to crossing. The rebels planted batteries st Williamsport. on the opposite side, to prevent the right of our army from crossing. The woods were lined with guns, haversacks, blankets, sc., of the rebels. We caused great slaughter among them. A dispatch by mail, dated Antietam battle-field, Wednesday, 8pm says: " McClellan rode along the line and was cheered most vociferously, which attracted the attention of the rebels, when they commenced throwing shells, some of which fell into the ranks of the 128th

Pennsylvania. " Tfiey began to fall back. McClellan himself rallied them and they soon regained their former steadiness. " There were no prisoners taken from us by the rebels.
