The Herald's corres-pondecce, dated from near Petersburg on the 27th, eays: Rebel tents are pitched in full view of our most advanced positions, and are said to belong to Hill's aud Longstreet's corps. Lee is operating on our lelt.

Beauregard is holding the town. Some dispositions in the Second Corps were made to-day to anticipate tbe operations of the enemy. A delightful shower of rain fell this evening. Gen. Hancock resumed command of his corps this evening.

His wound having closed, te is ready again for active service in the field. Gen. Birney, who has had temporary command of the corps, returns to the command cf his own division. Another correspondentof the Herald writes on the 27 th: This morning opened with every indication of a quiet day a'ong the lines. There seemed to be a tacit understanding between the skirmish lines on the front of the corps not to fire oh each other; and in fact throughout the whole day this implied agreement was religiously obseTved.save when amounted offieer or orderly presented too tempting a mark to be resisted.

Through tbeearly part of the morning no sound broke the "monotonous silence, except the thirty pounds Parrott shells that regularly every five minutes speed on their mission of destruction to the city. So regular has this firing been carried out that the gun executing it has received the name of the Peters buag Express-About eleven o'clock tbe rebels, tired of witnessing these discharges, suddenly opened on this battery with their heavy guns on the other side of the Appomattox. The first shell fired struck the parapet of our battery. The rebels, calculated without their host. The heavy batteries were immediately turned upon it, and Howell, Ragan and James opened, followed in a few minutes by Ashly, with his twenty-pounders.

In the midst of the firing Beecher commetced a furious shelling of the city with his ten-pounder Parrott, at short range, stopping only occasionally to pour showers of case shot into the rebel skirmish pits, to avenge the perpetual passing of musket balls through the embrasures of his battery. After many rounds of ammunition had been spent the enemy was effectually silenced for the time being, and quiet again, reigned supreme. Clouds of dust were observed rising from the Petersburg and Richmond turnpike, giving incontrovertible proof of the movement of rebel troops into the former city. A train of cars was also observed to be in a state of considerable activity. Another writes on the 2Sth: The music of the siege is now enlivened by the more sonorous voices of soma hundred-pounders, which were put in position yesterday.

So far they have been fired but seldom, and that with the object of obtaining ranee and elevation. Last night they burst a shell over the city every fifteen minutes, with the intention, no do'nbt, of disturDing the slumbers of the garrison at Petersburg. You may form an idea of the lively nature of the artillery firing from the following incident: During the gals which accompanied the rain a large number of trees were blown down. On examination, it was observed that each onehad been pTforatedor honeycombed by sh't and shell. Ilmce their feeble resistance to the force of the wind.

A correspondent of the Times says: Latest advices from Gen. Gract's head-Querters report only such occasional and artiUery practice as inevitably result frm the close proximity of the two forces. The chief enemy oar soldiers have had latfly to combat are'the heat and dust, which have been of the most malignant character. For thirty days not a drop1 of rain has fallen, making a drouth of a duration unparalleled in that region for many years. It is with the utmost difficulty that men and animals get even a scanty supply of water.

Gen-Paimer's raid from Newbern, on the Wilmington ar-d Weldon railroad, seems to supply a perfect explanation of ths recently reported march cf rebel troops from Lee's army into North Caroiina, on which such absurd speculations have been based. ARRIVAL OF WOC3SDED.

Alter lighting a faw hour, the rebels left. We bnrtei the Virginia Milita ry Institute and Gov. Letcher's house. Uapt. liiaser's scouts captured seven canal bot, containing six canncn, nine thousand rourds of ammunition and a large amount of commissarv stores.

General Dufiie having cut the Charlottes ville and Lynchburg Railroad at Amherst, we marched by way of Buchanan and Liber ty to Lynchburg. At Liberty we tore up tne road for several miles, burning a bridge one hundred feet long. Five miles from Lynchburg we found the rebels in strong position, and attacked them 17th. driving them two miles, when night closed in. During the night hpavy reinforcements from Richmond unoer r.sny arnvea.

I On Saturday, alter feeling the enemy'3 strength, it was decided that they were too strong for us, and by we withdrew, having taken two cannon and sixty prisoners. The Second Virginia cavalry, on Saturday night, cut the railroad, ten miles east of Lynchburg. At Salem a party cf rebels attacked Cor-lin aud Strauss's batteries in a defile, drove off the men, cut the wheels, end took off one hundred and twenty horses. We brought off five canroD, leaving seven that were mined, together with seven ciissons and carriages tbat were burned by the explosion of the former. Six men were killed and ten wounded of tbe Second Virginia cavalry.

Our whole loss in tbe entire movement is probably six hundred killed wounded and missing. We have one hundred prisoners, seven cannon, and six hundred horses captured, and have lived almost entirely off the country, and made the biggest raid on record.

Lotjisyille, June 23. The State Democratic Convention met in this city this morning. Hon. C. A.

Wihliffe was appointed permanent president, assisted Jby nine vice-presidents and three secretaries. The following resolutions were adopted: Ecsolved, That the people are the supreme sovereigns, and the constitutions which, they have ordained are the supreme government, and that all the assailants and enemies either of the people or of their government are trai.ors alike, whether their treason be rnanr iffsted by suppressing free elections, by chaining the by establishing political bestiles, or by ridiculing or repudiating the observance of oaths and constitutions. 2d. That in the interpretation of the constitution we are guided by the declarations of its authors, by the deliberations of the FedeT a I Con vention, by the resolutions of IVJH and prepared and expounded by Jeffer-eon and Madison, and by the decisions of the courts. 3d.

Guided by these lights, we declare that the coercion and subjection of eleven or more sovereign States was never contemplated as possible or authorized by the constitution, but was pronounced by its makers an act of suicidal follyj ana II the people or tne unitea States would have restored their shattered constitution, and averted from themselves and their posterity the slavery of a military despotism, and a public debt, the interest upon which can never be met, they must brir the war to a sneedv close; that the re' vocation of all unconstitutional edicts and nretended laws, an immediate armistice and a National Convention for tne adjustment of our difficulties are tbe only means oi saving ournation from unlimited calamity and ruin The fourth resolution denounces the na tional administration for attempting to "strike down State sovereignty," for placing the military above the civil authority, the fifth demands "a free toress. free speech, free ballot, freedom of religion," an the right of habeas corpus; the sixth declares uncom promising hostility "to the elevation of the African race to citizenship, ad tbeir formation into standing armies," and the seventh declares the overthrow of the party in power and the defeat of Abraham Lincoln to be a primary duty.

The War Newts. Nothing later than that published in yesterday's paper has been received from the seat of war in Virginia. We publish 6ome further details from the Northern papers, but the news contained in them is not of importance. It is stated in tbe Washington Hebublican that on Wednesday night between four and five hundred mounted guerillas, with, two or three pieces cf artillery, made a dash into "Duffield's Station," on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, about five miles above Harper's Ferry, and without any fight captured about thirty Union soldiers who were guarding the road at that point. It is not known what damage, if any, tbe raiders did to the railroad, but they cut and damaged the telegraph, line considerably.

Proceedings of Uo ess. Tbe House bill amendatory of the enrollment act, which was amended and passed by the Senate on "Wednesday night, was yesterday morning returned to the House with the Senate amendments, and sent back to that body with a resolution, offered by Mr. Stevens, chairman of the committee of ways and means, declaring that section 12, (Mr. Sherman's amendment to levy an additional income tax of five per cent, for defraying the expenses of the draft, was in contravention of the constitution of the United States, and an abridgement of the prerogatives of the House to provide means for the support of the government.

The Senate, at its morning session, promptly reconsidered and struck out the obnoxious section, leaving the bill, however, curtailed of the clause repealing the $300 commutation. Tee Crops ix the "Westers Status. The drought in Wisconsin and Illinois1 has been relieved by copious showers, and the same change has occurred in portions of Northern Ohio and in the southern tier of counties. Near the centre ot the State there is still much complaint of the want of rain. Both the ccrn and wheat crops in central and southern Illinois are reported large and promising.

The Harrisbnrg (Pa.) Union says: From the appearance of the grain in this vieiiii-y it will soon be ready for cutung, and tbe CTop will be a good one, notwithstanding the croakitg of ourrnral friends. The corn aud oats, although suffering to some extent or the want of rain, will yield average crops.

The New York Express of Wednesday evening sys: Speculation has been running wild asraln to-day in Wall street and not only among the mocey kings, but at the Piodace Exchange, "where merchants most do congregate" and the result is another enormous advance in values gold, of course, as the standard of value leading off. About everything we eat, drink and wear has advanced in the conrse of the day, it is difficult to say how much per bnt the reader of the market reports p.nd the mooey column will be able to draw his own inferences. Fiour is goir np rapidly. The advance to-day is reported to be 50e.a?I perbbl. Wheat, pork, coal, and other necessaries of life, are traveling onin the same track.

The high, prices or goods and tae general uncertainties of business are causing many of the New York merchants to consider seriously the propriety of reshipping their goods to Europe.
