THE NEWS HERE.

sATuRpAT MOANING, JUNE 22p Numerous
letters from parties In the South TO persons In loyal
states hHve embraced intimations that, according
70 The plans Of the traitor commanders, Washing
ton city was to have fallen into their hands on or
before this particular morning at DAYLIGHT These
letsers-frsm different writers In different South
ern States to different indi iduals-have been sent
70 the military authorities here Their state
Tents, backed by other positively -ascertained
iac's, lead irresstibly 10 the conclusion that Il
had been determined TO make the threatened at
tack 10 the course Of the past week. The attack
HIS not been made, only because Il would have
been madness to make Il. or men there is no
lack, within reach Of the conspiratcrs' call. But
OF all The other elements Of success in war, they
are enicted with wofal pauci:y We doubt not
that by their system Of forced cOnscri ption they
could have placed 700 OO0 men unreliable for the
most parp In the field, IL they could have armed
and provided for tnem-which they found i'm.
possible. We do not believe that the army uassed
under Beeuregard between this city and CuIpeper
Court House numbers more than 90 600 in all; II
out simply bscause the conspirators have no
means OF sustaining more, II % many, In any one
body and neighborhood. =

the city volunteers, Col. stones command who
returned to the city last hight busne IS for the
battalion, reports that all quiet at the variou,
posts when be left for the city. The Fifth Bat
talon, Lieut. Col Everett, 10 posted, three com.
p'ntes, at the Great Falls, and one at Seneca
Creek The Second Battalion, Major Jewell. IL
at Seneca Mills. The Third Battalion, Major
emead, one mile above Jamestown. The Ninth
New York Regiment is a. Poolesville; but at the
Time tie ofcer lefs the exact positions Of the re.
manning portions Of the command was not known
epeaklHg Of tie mplaints Of the men relative to
Tie want OF provisions, he thought that much OF
the cause came of their own carelessness in
wasting much of the ratlons distributed to them
The provisions are regularly distributed TO each
battalion by the regimentaI suartermasters. II
the same care IL taken by those in immediate
communication with the men to see that the
fstions are properly used and not wasted there
would be no cause for complaint anywhere. Blu,
tbs men could be made more easy In camp ana
better satisfied II they could receive in addition
