ntemplated upon his right and rear — information since verified. It was also ascertained that on Thursday night the rebel cavalry under Stuart, and infantry under Ewell, were crossing the Rapidan in the vicinity of Robinson river and making towards Springville, via James City, and I presume it was this information which led to thest and 6th corps extending from Raccoon Ford to Cedar Run; Kilpatrick, supported by the 2d and 3d corps, to the west of Culpeper, from three to four miles distant. Ewell had moved back from his position in the morning, and faced Newton and Sedgwick, while Stuart fronted French, Warren, and Kilpatrick in the vicinity of Bethel Churca force of cavalry and artillery, which had made a reconnaissance near Madison Court-House, was cut off yesterday afternoon on the road to Culpeper by a portion of Ewell's corps, which were formed across the only road by which he could retreat in twelve ranks, with two regiments on each flank.

ports afloat in town to the effect that Meade is retreating precipitately to Washington, under pressure from Lee, following with an immense army, is absurdly erroneous, as those know who are aware how deliberately Meade is changing his front to guard against any possible surprise from Lee, should he attempt a flask movement. Late reports from Richmond show that the idea is entertained there that Meade's army has been depleted to the extent of four army corps for the reinforcement of Rosecrans; and it may be that Lee is maneuvering to ascertain if our army is really as weak as reported. The supposition is that Lee designed moving a force through Thoroughfare Gap, and rumor has it that the enemy has already appeared there; but in this case rumor must be considerably ahead of the fact, and in any event Meade has the shortest line of march to Manassas, and can readily post himself so as to confront Lee wherever he may make his appearance, if, indeed, the latter is not already

The returns of the different cities, counties, and townships from the two States, will be found in another column, as far as heard from. The reports yet to be received will not, probably, change the result above stated. Gen. Green's victory in Louisiana. The papers confess the victory by Gen. Green at Atchafalaya, La., on the 30th ult. The following is the conclusion of the account: After two gallant charges, in which many of our bravest men fell, our forces fell back behind a levee near by. Here the enemy pressed us so closely that our line became broken, and every man fought for himself. Just as our men were beginning to recover themselves the third detachment, which had engaged Maj. Montgomery, appeared in our rear, and the whole of the enemy closed upon our force, thus completely surrounding them. It was i

Latest from the north. We have received, through the courtesy of the officers of the Exchange Bureau, New York papers of Wednesday, the 14th inst. The principal news in them is about the "falling back" of Meade's army, which has been going on since Saturday last. A letter from Headquarters of the Army of Potomac, dated the 10th, says: Gen. Meade's movements. For some days past it has been evident that this army would not long remain in the vicinity of Culpeper, and every one who knew anything of our own and the rebel forces understood that it would be impossible for us to advance. Hence the only question for General Meade to solve was how to get his immense trains and stores away in safety. On Wednesday of last week General Meade received information that led him to believe that an extensive rebel raid was contemplated upon his right and rear — information since verified. It was also ascertained that on Thursday night the rebel cavalry under Stuart, and infantry under
