m Point of Rocks, three miles distant. The feeling of the Marylanders is indicated by the fact that they will, at all hazards, continue to furnish food to the Confederate forces at Harper's Ferry and Point of Rocks. The concentration of artillery at Harper's Ferry, either indicates a retreat or an advance via Point of Rocks. It is rumored that the batteries at Aquia Creek have been reinforced by three thousand additional troops. Important military movements are on foot at Fortress Monroe.

Having said thus much, we introduce to our readers, as quite natural, and just what might have been expected, the following article from the Elmira Press, which we have not leisure to comment upon further at this time. The paper was sent in an envelope, directed--"Corresponding Secretary Young Men's Christian Association, Richmond, Va. Care General Butler, Fortress Monroe. General, please send along.
