Army of the Potomac. [our own correspondent.] Richmond, Jan. 3, 1862. Auphora capita Latini; Charente rote our emcee exit Horack. Some days ago I published information regarding the winter quarters of our army, based upon the statement of a gentleman whom I supposed correctly informed upon all points connected with the disposition of troops, but I have since learned from better authority that my publication was premature, and furthermore, that it was substantially incorrect. Ten thousand rumors upon the subject are floating on the current of public talk; but they are merely exaggerated reports upon a matter no one beyond our Generals can even predicates an opinion. In my college days I recollect to have read, I think in Terrence, the saying, "Insita lomixibus libide sleadi de industria rumores"--men have in them a natural propensity for spreading rumors. The truth of the phrase was never more apparent than at present. Men take very diminutive facts, blow th

in camp, or whether a more active policy will be inaugurated. At present winter exists only in name, but we have precedents upon which to found an opinion that there may be had weather before spring Good, comfortable quarters must be provided for our volunteers during the chilly storms of winter. No matter what course may be pursued in the conduct of the war — act on the defensive or offensive — the health and comfort of the men demand that proper shelter should be given them. If General Johnston has decided to assume the aggressive, there is no reason in the world why the men should not be allowed the privilege of making log huts to live in until he is ready to lead them into the field. If he has decided to act upon the passive policy that has been inaugurated since the battle of Manassas, it is culpable to keep the men in weak, flimsy tents, sleeping upon — the wet, damp ground, while the icy wind whistles the "dead march" around their ears. Abuse a man, imperil his health a<

thers, I, too, can have dreams. Pardon my introducing one here. The student's dream. My dreams are all of battle scene, And through the silent night, There breaks upon my slumbering cars The stilling sound of charging cheers The tumult of the fight. The sir is full of waving swords-- Around my couch of sleep. I see the polished helmets flash; I hear the round shield's ringing crash. And the war cry's made deep. Sounds of the night I they wake me not; Yet off in dreams I rise, Ard, girded with a monarch's power, I lead those heroes of an hour Against a foe that flies. I wear a crown of glory then. And priceless diamonds gleam On hilt and cross of that keen steel My griping fingers thrill to feel In the right hand of my dream. Wildly and him the visions fade-- I mourn with waking day To leave the throbs and thrill of strife, To wake in dull and deedless life, To join a world at play. My spirit loathes its midday dream, And curses hot are poured, To don a ta

em out for the admiration of the world, or preserve them for the pen of history. Many a poor sister reads the simple story of her soldier-brother, or, in her chamber, pores over the letter of her lover with moistened eyes and emotions half of pleasure and half of grief. If the unwritten history of this war could only be told — if the many instances of individual virtue and patriotic heroism could be written, what an insight would it give us to the human heart! In the army of the Confederate States at the present moment, there is enrolled an amount of intelligence, conscientious conviction, earnestness of deliberate will consecrated to a holy cause, never, perhaps equalled in the history of eighteen centuries. The best blood, and the truest, most manly hearts of our Southern land, are enlisted in the defence of its honor. When we think of the chivalric noble men composing the rank and file of our army, how closely do we scan the character of the General upon whom the responsibil

ooting in a Bast room --Yesterday afternoon, between three and four o'clock, an affray occurred in the saloon of Maurice Dennis, near the Central depot, which resulted in the serious wounding of a soldier by a pistol shot.
