WAsHIEsroE, Nov. 30.
A reconnaissance was made yesterday by
g squad Of Lincoln Cavalry, under Capt.
". 81. Boyd. They preceded to within
about mile Of Fairfax c. H., when they
observed rebel infantry partially concealed
in rife pits, which extended across the
turnpike. A few rebel cavalry we're also
in the rear, and within rifle range shots
we're exchanged.
One Of our troops had his arm slightly
grAzed by a ball, and rebel was killed.
The cavalry and infantry of the enemy
were seen to change their positions by fall
ing back into the town.
Special to the Tribune:
The Government has received intelli-
genoe to-day that the leaders of the rebel
lion in Richmond, and in the Confederate
camps across the Potomac, at last are sat
isfed that they are beaten in the issue of
arms which they have made, and that the
cause Of secession is hopeless one.
