porteryille. Nd

Portervllle, Md, Sept. 6.
Intelligence from the Virginia shore is
to the effect that from opposite the White
House ford near the mouth of the Seneca
river down to Arlington Heights the rebels
have heavy pickets, and are daily expect
ing reinforcements to enable them to ex-
tend to Conrad's Ferry. There are at
least from 500 to 7tonow' along the line.
On Friday force Of lGvu Missssippians
as guard reached the vicinity Of Fairfax
Courthouse with Is pieces Of artillery
The force opposite Washington Is estirna-
ted by the rebels at les 900 with heavy
reinforeernents daily arriving They say
that an attack is to be made ON Washing
ton the present week. Simultaneous with
the attack on Washington demonstrations
are to be made, according to the same au-
thority, near the mouth of the Occoquan,
and above at Edwards, Nolan's, or the
White House Ferry The rebels have
plenty OF provisions and whiskey. Faud-
lies and stores have however been entirely
drained of salt, sugar and coffee. No mo-
ney can purchase these necessaries. Men
| frequently come down to the river and in
piteous terms beg their Maryland neigh
bors for a pittance Of these articles. Cat
tie snl cows are suffering for salt. A
scanty supply il sometimes obtained from
Fishbridge, but this is very rare. The
rebels yesterday arrested FIVE men nearly
opposite this town Four sons who had
deserted from the rebel army and their
aged father as hostage were dragged
back to the army.
