July 19, 1862 – Gen. Pope Occupies Gordonsville

GREAT SENSATION AMONG THE SECESH.

New York, July 18.—The New York Tribunes Washington dispatch states: We have advices from Warrenton to-day. The news has been received that Gen. Hatch occupied Gordonsville. This has created great consternation among the leading rebels in Warrenton, who had not the least idea that Gen. Pope would reach that point without a great battle. Index, many of them said, would be held at all hazards, and that no Yankee army would be allowed to take it.
