From the Border.
There was an nows of speculation, received from the army near
Fredericksburg yesterday.
It was rumored in camp that the
Federal army had returned to
Alexandria, with a view to take up winter quarters at that point.
The Central train brought down from
Staunton, last evening twenty four Yankee prisoners, whose capture by
Capt. McNeill, is
Hardy county, we have here Store noticed.
Among the party was the Pierpont sheriff of
Barbour county, who we liars, has been very active in carrying out the honest of his Yankee masters in that county, and in collecting revenue from the people to support the hireling of
Lincoln in their crusade upon the loyal citizens of the
Northwest.
