j^-John Mowias at Coldmbls.?John
Morgan received a very handsome recep
tion at Columbus on Monday evening, as
far as numbers were concerned. The de
sire to see one who hag given the citizens
of Ohio so much trouble as this rebel baB
could hardly have been greater if President
Lincoln or sciine of our own Generals had
been there.
The Journal says it wan amusing to hear
the various guesses as to which one was
the man they were all anxious to ate?one
pointed out a very dignified Colonel, dress
ed in full t'nited States uniform, and adorn
ed with tbe eagle-straps, as the "fellow
soother suggested a rebel surgeon, because
hi- was ornamented with a green scarf, and
10 on it went until one of the goard point
ed out the right man, and then there was
another rush to see bim. The crowd be
ing successful this time, feasted their eyes
and made way tor others who nlso had
their curiosity excited on learning that
.Morgan was at the depot?a report which
spread throughout the city with remarka
ble rapidity.
The Governor, Ueneral Mason and por
tions nf their stall's were introduced to
John, and shook hands with him, after
which they paid their respects to Ueneral
Shackleford, who was in the depot telegraph
office.
About 4 o'clock the ?'?<u left for Oinciu
uati, though at firs'i we believe, it was the
intention that Morgan and bis men should
stop at Colamb"* ttn<l up quarters with
('apt. Mori"1 until the Richmond authori
ties rc'-"ae'l Col. Streigbt and bis officers,
g,,. Morgan claims that he surrendered to
japt. Kurbeck or Burbridge of Columbi
ana County Militia, and that one condi
tion of tbe surrender was that be and bis
command should be paroled. This has
raised tbe question as to the authority of
the Captain in'the matter, which will be
decided by Gen. Hnrnside. The surrender
to the Captain was only n trick of Mor
gan's, who taking advantage of bis inex
perience in military affairs thought be I
wou'd make a better bargain with him t
than with General Shackleford, who was I
then within a short distance with bis whole i
turce. However, we understand that a dis- I
patch from Major Kue has been received
by General Hurnside which distinctly says
that Morgan surrendered to him personal
ly. If this is correct it will throw all
doubt 'relative to tbe matter aside, and
hence it is not altogether improbable but
that John may yet become a resident of
Columbus.

HaJT.SKRiocs Railroad Accident.?On j
.Saturday afternoon last, Mr. Barzilia Mar
riott met with a most serious accident,
which it was feared wonld cost him bis
life. He had taken passage in the early
afternoon train for Washington city from
llaltiinore, and upon nearhig Laurel sta
tion requested the conductor, Mr. A. J.
Phelps, to stop the trnin and allow him to |
g't off This Capt. Phelps at tirst refused
to do, as the train was tbe express, and it
was a positive rule of the company not to ]
I op their express trains except at the spe
cially designated stations. Mr. Marriott
insisted, and pleading that his case was
one of life and death to him, Capt. Phelps
at length consented to stop the train for
him. He then pulled the bell strap, order
ing the engineer to stop, but before the
trnin had entirely halted, Mr. Marriott at
tempted to jump off tbe platform, al
though admonished not to do so, both by
the baggage master and the conductor.?
Kor many years past be has been cripplad
in bis left leg, and was exceedingly lame.
In jumping be alighted on bis lame leg.
anil was thrown to tbe ground, his left
toot swinging round and going under tbe
car wheels. The foot and ankle were so
mashed that after Captain Phelps, assisted
bv seretal others, conveyed the unfortu
jfnatemati to tho government hospital at
Laurel, tbe surgeon at once decided to am
putate the leg just above the ankle. This
was done on Saturday evaning.

ftSTt'TKAMKE Boston Bur.nko.?Captain
l" Washington Honsball's elegant side-wheel
steamer Bosiou, plying between Cincinnati
and Big Sandy, was burned to the water's
edge on Saturday evening, and sunk. The
boat and cargo is a total loss. The Boston
was bound up, and thronged with passen
gers and full of freight, including a small
amount of Government stores. Tbe fire
originated in the bold. The accident oc
carod at Franklin Furnace Landing, four
tsen miles above Portsmouth. She lies sank
on the Kentucky shore opposite that point.
All the passengsrs, including many ladies,
escaped. So lives were lost. The White
Itose and Monsoon came along while the
Boston was burning, but could render her
no assistance, except in providing for the
passengers. The passengers lost nearly
all baggage. The books and papers of the
p. boat were also )08t. The Boston was built
m Cincinnati in 1856, and had capacity
'or five hundred tuns. She belonged to
the Cincinnati and Big Sandy Packet Com
P"Djr' "Pr owners, we understand, were
? am' refused $45,000 for the Boston,
several months since. Sho was insured in
/ Cincinnati for $18,000.

Results of the Fight at Front Royal.
Nkw York, July 38?A dispatch from
Harper's Ferry to (be Philadelphia Inquir
er says: The results of the engagement of
Thursday last at Front Royal, aa reported,
are highly encouraging. The intention
was to cot Lee's army in two and it suc
ceeded to the extant that Swell's corps is
reported to be entirety cut off from
coinmuuicatioo with Lee's, and its captnre
or dispersion is almost certain. The rail
road between this point and Martinsburg
Is uninjured except a small bridge over the
Opeqnan creek which was destroyed by
the rebels west of Martinsburg, the road is
reported to be badly injured the rails torn
? p for a considerable distance, bridges
burned, &o. The rebels having evacuated
Martinsburg. The road will soon be in
running order to that point.
It is reported that Winchester is now
occapied by only a small farce of White's
rebel cavalry. The town will doubtless be
in our possession again in a few days.
Citizens have come in to-day from the
| vicinity of Hartinsbnrg, who report no
armed rebels in their neighborhood, except
a few straggling bushwackers.
The Post says it is stated upon good au
thority that the draft will not recommence
this week, but the probability is that it
will be deterred only a short time. That it
will be prevented by the action of the state
authorities which some of the sympathisers
with the rioters hope, is altogether unlike*

More Fighting m Kentucky?Mar
tial Law Declared in Lexington.
Cincinnati, July 28.?A special to the
Commercial from Lexington, Ky., says the
rebels this morning attacked our forces at
Richmond, consisting ot a small detach
ment under Col. Sanders. After an hour's
severe fighting our troops were compelled
to full back to Kentucky river badly out
up. The rebel force is estimated at 2,500
and six guns. They are supposed to be
the advance of Bragg's army.
At latest advices our troops bad fallen
back to Lexington, the enemy closely fol
lowing. Martial-law was proolaimed in
Lexington to day, and all able-bodied cit
izens between the ages of 18 and 45 are
ordered to report for duty. It is thought
the city can be held against the rebels.
Rebel oitizens reports a rebel force
of over 15,000 moving in a northerly di
rection via Crab Orchard.
The Gazette's Lexington dispatch says
the excitement bus subsided. The rebels
came to Kentucky river at Clay's Ferry.
Saunders' command are nearly all in.
Troops from Hickman's bridge insure tbe
safety of Lexington. Gens. Carter's and
Gilbert's commands are in the rear of tbe
rebels.
A Portion of Lees's Army at Col
pepper.
Wasbinuton, July 28.?Information re
ceived to-day that Lee's army under Long
street, Hill and Ewell, passed through
Chester Gap on Thursday and Friday,and
are now at Culpepper.
Buford's cavalry opposed them, but had
to fall back, but hung on their rear captur
ing prisoners and cattle.
It is generally thought that Lee was
making all possible speed to Ricbmond,
but Bufort thinks tbe rebels intend making
a stand on the south sido of tbe Rapidan.
Rebel prisoners say our cavalry- has
done more to defeat Lee's plans than any
other plan; also that a great deal of de- 1
spondency prevails in the South and in tbe
army in consequence of recent defeats and
tbe failure of Lee's plans, while tbe defeat
of Joe. Jobnstou and bis refusal to obey
orders will necessitate Jeff Davis to recon
struct the army of tbe southwest.
Train Fired into by Guerrillas
Nbw York, July 28.?Tbe Herald's
Washington special says, yesterday a train
from Warranton to Alexandria, conveying
about 300 troops, was fired into by gueril
las, when within two miles of Manassas.?
No damage done. The troops scoured the
woods in the vicinity, but were unable to
find tbe a-sailants. Proceeding a short
distance further, tbe train was again fired
ioto without injury and the soldiers again
unable to discover tbe perpetrators, and
tbe train proceeded without any further
in'?rrnnt|nn.
It waa report .'d here to-day that some
40 of MosOy sgueralllas were captured latt
nigbt, but on inquiry tbe story proved to
be unfounded. One scouting party cap
tured six and another a single guerrilla,
which appears to be all that has been dona
in that line for the past 46 hours.
Enternal Revenue Decision
Nsw York, July 28.?The Times' special
says : Tbe Commissioners of internal rev
enue have decided that a certificate of ex
emption for those who have been dratti d
and have furnished a substitute under the
conscription act, being expressly required !
by law, to be issued by a board of enroll-1
meet, is exempt from stamp duty. Any
certificate wbicb may be issued by .a
Magistrate in connection witb|tbe proceed
ings under the conscription act is subject
lo a stamp doty of five cents.
VOLUSTHB SUROBO.N COBPS.
Surgeon General Hammond is making
arrangements to seenre tbe aid of a corps
of volunteer surgeons to meet exigencies
on the battle field.
General A. Merdeits has been ordered
to Portress Monroe to relieve Lieutenant
Colonel Liedeo, present agent for tbe ex
change of prisoners. Colonel Lieden has
been ordered to report to Adjutant General
Thomas.
The Position of the Rebel Army
Mew Yob*, July 28?The Times has
the following:
Hxadqcabtkbs Abut or tbs Potomac,
July 26, 6 P. M.?The positioos of tbo
rebel army are as follows: On Friday
morning at six o'clock the advance of
Hill's and Longstreet's corps reached Col
pepper C. H. They were well closed up
and their entire corps must be concen
trated there by this time. Of tbis retro
grade movement tbere can be no ques
tion. Swell's corps, it is understood here,
still occupy the Shenandoah valley, where
it is gu arding fords on tbe Shenandoah
and rear it is believed. This fact is sup
posed to explain tbe recent alarm, Indica
ting that Lee was not retreating and was
preparing to return to M tryl and.
A Rebel Gunboat Captured,
Niw York, July 28?Noon.?The steam
er Merrimac bnilt by the British for tbe
