There was no forward movement last
night as information was received by Gen.
Scott late in the evening that several thou.
sand rebels were at Centreville, ten miles
from Alexandria. The result was that each
Of our regiments on the Virginia side was
notified to be prepared for night attack.
Preparations are going on in several
Commissary Departments for the six, eight
and ten days ratiOns, for many Of our
troops, indicating forward movements.
intelligence reached Fortress Monroe
yesterday that scouting party Of Colonel
Aliens Troy Regiment had been taken
prisoners by body Of 800 rebels, near
Hampton, on the previous day, but Gen.
Butler doubted the. report from the fact
that the country in that direction had been
thoroughly TeoOnnoitered.
No such force Of rebels could be discov-
cred. The General Immediately ordered
Col burgers Zouaves, however, to pursue
the rebels, and reoapture the party if they
had been taken. La
Slaves continue to arrive in considerable
numbers at Gen. Batlers, camp, and are
put to work in the trenches. They are said
to comprehend the position of affairs very
clearly, and report that their masters are
very much alarmed, and are flying from
their homes every day - o..

Department prohibiting the shipment Of

A new Collector has been appointed who
will enforce the prohibition. He will enter
upon his duties in few days.
The government has been advised Of the
openly avOWed purpose of large armed
force of Tenpesseans to make a rush to
louisville the moment an attempt is made
to enforce the embargo there, to stir up il
possible an insuFrectiun along the line, and
take possession Of the Nashville road. The
Tennesseans expect and would doubtless
obtain q strong support from the Kentucky
precipitators and their open aheitor, Gev.
Magotin. It is to guard against this that
the government eontemplates ordering the
Kentucky brigade TO Nashville, to 90 oper-
atewith the Union men of Louisville, and
the State at large, in resisting the intended
invasion of Tennesseans, hut it appears
that very strong prejudice exists in Ken
tucky against the brigade. III
A large number Of its members hail
from Ohio, and the so-called Kentuckians
are mostly from the border towns and coun-
ties. Only a small portion Of these are ma

deal of scandal Of apprehension,

This wise discrimination will remov
much difRculty and apprehension.
