From the Rapidan. Orange C. H., Feb. 10.
--It is not true that the enemy have fallen back to Centreville.--They are still occupying the same line as before the movement of Sunday week.
On Thursday last Gilmer's cavalry threw a train of cars off the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, six miles above Harper's Ferry, capturing and paroling fifty Federal officers and soldiers and getting some booty.

The Yankee force on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
From gentlemen from the Lower Valley we learn the Yankees have a large force in that region, strung along the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, from Harper's Ferry to Martinsburg.

The Macon Telegraph says Gen. G. was in high spirits, and disposed to take the very brightest views in regard to the result and duration of the war.
Burglarious robberies.
--From the number of robberies which were committed on Saturday night, it would seem that there was a preconcerted plan between all the housebreakers in Richmond to turn out. We give the following record:
Between one and two o'clock the storeroom of John H Gilmer's residence, on 6th street, between Marshall and Clay, was broken into, and about $300 worth of molasses, crockery, "c, carried off.
The Male Orphan Asylum, in the western part of the city, was visited between twelve o'clock and daybreak by thieves, who forced the outside window shutter from the basement room, in which the provisions were kept, and carried off everything which was on hand.
Not satisfied with depriving this institution of the bacon, flour, &c, which had been collected for the support of the helpless orphans, the graceless rascals forced their way into an adjoining room, where was kept a lot of crockery, sliver spoons, &c, and besides taking away the most valuable of the c
