enemy. Lloyd has been allowed to pass through our lines with impunity for some time past, but certain circumstances have lately transpired which warranted his arrest on the above named charge. He was sent to Washington. A Contraband from Bull Run. A negro who escaped from Bull Run the day previous, came within our lines at Vienna yesterday. The fellow ran away from his master, an officer in a South Carolina Regiment, to avoid a flogging. He states that there are 50,000 soldiers witBull Run the day previous, came within our lines at Vienna yesterday. The fellow ran away from his master, an officer in a South Carolina Regiment, to avoid a flogging. He states that there are 50,000 soldiers within ten miles of Fairfax Court House, and that there are as many more behind them. The advance force out year Fairfax Court-House is commanded by Bonham, of South Carolina. The negro also says that the cars are running on the railroad from Fairfax station to Manassas Junction, and that the rails have not been torn up as reported. Movements of the rebels. The outer pickets of Gen. McCall's division were driven in last night, indicating an advance of the rebel army. A large party was s
the van of that army. Go to the situations most exposed, and most dangerous. Go to the Navy — and you will search in vain for any of those valorous "Wide Awakes." I do not say this by way of discouragement. If the war is necessary, and it is now upon us, in God's name let us prosecute it.--Instead of that, what is the spectacle? What will be the history of the next six months?--We will commence with the glorious victory of Bethel, from there we will go to Vienna, and from there to Bull Run, thence to Chickamacomac, and from there to the last place, the name or which I don't remember, and there you will find all these splendid victories that not only will make us renowned at home, but renowned abroad. What did I hear to-day as coming from the Commander-in Chief of the United States forces--from Gen. McClellan? That he dare not fight on the Potomac. So that we shall have no more battles, I trust, this fall. We have now got in the field some five hundred thousand men, wh
pted an advance upon three different occasions, but retired each time because his men did not come up to the mark. Now, the rumor goes, he has given up entirely until the success of the armada shall inspire his men with confidence. Possibly this may be true; out, if so, only by accident. One thing now seems evident — McClellan does not intend to advance until the fleet is heard from, or until the Southern troops, hearing of the invasion of the Cotton States, shall have gone home and left Bull Run at his disposal. Yesterday a scouting party of about sixty Federal cavalry came up near Fairfax, and, Her making a reconnaissance, retired Our lines run about a mile this side the town, and upon a hill commanding a view of a large tract of country are a number of our cavalry pickets, Upon an eminence commanding the approaches is a battery of light artillery, supported by just infantry enough to prevent surprise. At no time since our force abandoned Fairfax, has it been held by the ene
Who has a war horse for Sale? --About the close of the session of Congress, the Virginia delegation and a number of citizens of Richmond subscribed for the purchase of a fine horse, to be presented to a field officer — a Virginian by birth, and who did gallant service on the memorable 21st of July at Bull Run. Up to this time, although advertised for, and sought after in various quarters by a competent judge, a horse having the requisites for a charger — size, color, bearing, spirit, and action — has not been procured. Any one having such a horse to dispose of — and we are sure there must be some such in our State, which has produced so many fine horses — will find a purchaser by communicating with Mr. Thos. W. Doswell, of th
