Our Army Correspondence. Army Northern Virginia,August 22, 1863. The report of the Yankees crossing at Waterloo is untrue. The main body of the enemy holds the position along the Orange and Alexandria Railroad it has held for several weeks past, excepting an occasional change of camps. If I could anticipate them, I could not speak with propriety of our own designs; but if a change in the present situation depends on the will of Gen. Meade, the utter absence of all indications of an advance by him shows its prospect to be more remote than ever. Agreeably to the President's proclamation and the General Order from the headquarters of the Army, yesterday was generally observed as a day of Fasting and Prayer. Religious exercises were held in the different camps by the Army Chaplains. At the headquarters of Gen. Ewell a very appropriate discourse was delivered by that able divine, Rev.

I will not attempt an outline which deeply impressed a large auditory, principally of soldiers, who attended by regiments, with their respective officers, and whose cleanly, comfortable and healthful appearance furnished a pleasing rebuke to the croakers at home. Gens. Lee, Ewell and other distinguished officers were present. The first named, it is said, invariably attended services on such occasions at the headquarters of the lamented Jackson.

The evidence is in favor of the belief that the main strength and efforts of the enemy will be concentrated and directed against our strongholds in the South and West, and then to give the "rebellion" the coup de grace by a united blow against Richmond. The fall of Vicksburg is followed by an exhibition of energy at Charleston no less desperate and persevering, to be succeeded probably by an attempt at Savannah and Mobile.--Against the latter but a moiety of Grant's army will be directed in combination with the fleet, while the remainder may form a junction with Rosecrans, with the view, as their avowal and oft-repeated intentions render reasonable, of securing Chattanooga and East Tennessee, and then Atlanta, Ga., the heart of the railroad circulation of the South.
