From our army.

We have nothing new to record with reference to our army on the border and its operations. Reports yesterday seem to confirm the statement that there is no considerable body of the enemy on the South side of the Potomac.

Our pickets have been advanced to Halltown, within four miles of Harper's Ferry, and on Saturday everything was quiet. No battle was immediately anticipated. The condition of the army is good, and recruits of stragglers and conscripts still continue to arrive.
