From Northern Virginia. We have no further news from the forces under Gen. Lee. There seems now to be a general concurrence in the opinion that the Yankees have crossed the Potomac on both sides of the Blue Ridge in considerable force. A gentleman who left Charlestown on Saturday says a heavy force of the enemy was near that point, having crossed at Harper's Ferry and Shepherdstown. The main body of Meade's army, however, are understood to have crossed at Berlin and Louisburg, and are operating on the eastern side of the mountain, with a view, doubtless, of throwing their columns between our army and Richmond. The Central train continues to bring down the wounded in the several fights at Gettysburg. Yesterday the remains of the lamented Gen. Pettigrew were brought down, and were conveyed to the Capitol, where they are now being in state. The hearse was followed from the train by the State Guard, the city militia, and a large concourse of citizens.

They deduced their opinion from the fact that neither the President nor the Provost Marshal General had given official notification of such an order to the people. It will be noticed, however, that Colonel Nugent has given a public announcement of the suspension of the draft. The following is a copy of Col. Nugent's announcement: The draft suspended. New York, July 15. --The draft has been suspended in New York city and Brooklyn. Robert Nugent, Col. and Asst. Provost Mar. Gen. After this official announcement Gov. Seymour pledged his word to the people that the draft should not be renewed, but two days afterwards the following order was issued from Washington: War Department,Provost Marshal General's Office, Washington, July 17th, 1863. The operations of the draft lately ordered in the New England and Middle States, though in most instances completed, or now in progress without opposition, have in one or two cities been temporarily inter
ence of corps commanders at the headquarters of General Meade on Sunday night, when this subject was discussed. Our forces were then in position, and fresh troops were hurrying forward with all rapidity. The conference lasted till midnight. Four of the Major-Generals were opposed to an attack by our army. One thought it imprudent to risk another engagement so soon after the great advantage gained at Gettysburg. Another was of the opinion that Lee would himself attack us at daylight.--Gen. Warren, of the staff of Gen. Meade, was, I am told, most earnest in urging an immediate advance, eloquently and at considerable length, giving his reasons why we should wait no longer.

A correspondent of the New York Herald, writing from Funkstown, Md., on the 15th, says: At 12 o'clock last night an order was issued by General Meade directing each of the corps commanders to push forward a division of infantry, with artillery, to feet the enemy. The order was a day too late. The movement have resolved meet disastrously to the remnant of the rebel army on this side of the river.
