Prospect of Il Fight in Virginia.

There are indications that Gen Mcclellan
intends more active operations soon. Great
activity prevails in the qHartermasters de-
partment. Wagons, horses ana mules are
constantly arriving, and an enormous quanti-
ty of oats has been accumulated. There
are nearly 1000 horses at the government
depot. 5000 mules, and some 20OO wagons.
Five hundred teamsters have been advertised
for, in addition to those already employed.
The main body Of the rebels are at Fairfax
Court House, whence broad belt of camps,
almost unbroken, are seen from our balloons,
stretching northwa:d towards Leesburg
where there are nearly 10000 men. On the
lower Potomac is a strong force, 10000 or
lj00O, back of Evansport. ut and near
Manassas there are comparatively few troops.
The enemy is variou>ly estimated at from
100000 to 100000. 1t IS believed that Gen

Singular Statement about the MunsOn
Hill Affair.

The correspondent of the New York World
states that the night expedition to Munson's
Hill miscarried as to its main purpose by the
act of some traitors in Washington. He
says: "Gen Mcclellan did not subject twen-
ty thousand men to night march, with no
other object than the occupation Of an unim-
portant hill. lie had formed plan to cap
ture the six or eight thousand rebel, who
were in that vicinity. With the prudence Of
good general, he had arranged certain sig
nails to be displayed from Washington in
case any unforeseen occurrence should cause
the expedition to be abandoned at the last
moment Gen Mcclellan did not contide
his plan to any but very few prominent
officers, whose corporation was necessary
What Was his Indignation, then, when he
was on the field, personally experimenting
the movements of the forces to see the sig
mails from Washington, requiring the troops
to remain in camp. The rebels had d:scoy-
cred the signals before he did, and although
he redoubled his efforts to hasten the depar-
ture OF the troops, the rebels had got beyond
his reach when he arrived at their intrench-
ments. Gen Mcclellan is reported to have
used very strong language with reference to
the manner in which the Union cause was
betrayed, and brilliant and effective cou!
defeated.

Secretary Seward has addressed the fol-
lowing letter to Gov Washburn Of Maine:
"DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
Washington, Oct 18th, 1861.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS has been made to
the president Of the United States for the re-
lease Of Robert Elliott, political prisoner
held in custody at Fort Lafayette. The ev
ldence in his case shows That he had not on
~ conceived the purpose OF reasonable CO.
operation, in the state of Maine, with the i'll
surrectionary citizens arrayed IN arms IN 9th
er states for the overthrow OF the government
and the Union, but that he mad even gone
to the extreme length of getting up an un-
Lawful! force to operate in Maine agalnt the
lawful action Of the state and the federal gov
einments. His associates in that treaSona-
Die enterprise, since his arrest have taken
the oath of allegiance to the United States.-
This proceeding is very proper in itself.but the
representations they make, that they ard he
were loyal to the Union at the time when
they were combining in arms against it, can
not be accepted, 1T least in his behalf. 1t
appears that he is too intelligent to misun-
derstand the legitimate tendency of his Grim
inal acts. He cannot be released. On the
contrary, your vigilance in ferretlng out the
conspiracy, and in arres,ing by denouncng it
to the federal government and the country,
is deemed worthy of especial commentator.
Ii any of the other offenders are still persls-
ting in their reasonable course, you will, |
am sure, not fail 20 give information to this
department. (Signed) W. IL. SEWARD"
