WAsHiSeroN, July 20-P. k.-The War
Office has surprised and delighted the town
to day, by designating General Banks to take
the field in person at the head of Pattersons
column. Everybody says 'amsn,' and
there is a feeling of entire satisfaction that
something will now be done with this splen'
did corps, worthy alike Of the men and the
cause. Gen. Patterson was three months
volunteer. and his term being up, the War
Department has wisely decided not 10 renew
it. His inactivity has been greatly censured
here. The best that can be said in his be
half is that he is too old (7o), and too little
experienced, for a position requiring such
vigorous management. Banks fills the bill,
and will strive to distinguish himself
Gen. Dix of New York is assigned to the
command at Baltimore, where he is likely to
be more useful than anywhere else. 1t Is
believedat headquarters that Patterson's
column is still at Cha, elstown, near Harper's
Ferry.
The rebels have Withdrawn from Aqua
Greek and Matthias Point. They have prob.
ablo fallen back to Manassas, where South.
ern troops are being concentrated.
Up to o'clock, this Saturday morning,
there had been no renewal of the engage
ment at Bulls Run. The two armies were
within sight of each other, and the pickets
are constantly exchanging shots. Our ad-
vance extends over the hill and nearly TO the
creek. The enemy remain behind bis en-.
trenchments. Gen. Mcdowell in his last
report, is confident he can turn the enemy's
point, but it is doubtful il they are not too
strong for him. A general Reconnaissance.
yesterday, made no new discoveries Of spe
cial importance.
WASHINGTON. JULY 20-e p. x.-rA caval-
~ sergeant who left Bulls Run At O'Clock
this morning reports no forward movement
had been made by either Of the armies. The
Reconnaissance was proceeding, and would
not be finished for q day or two. Gen. Nc.
Dowell writes that he is turning the enemy's
position.
It is said Gen. Patterson disobcyed two
positive orders to advance. II this be true
he should be court-martialcd. The latest in.
telligence from him indicates that he j.
moving towards Winchester. whence. it is
believed, Johnston is hurry ing towards
Manassas Gap. Johnston is reported to
hare 10000 fhis force at Fort Royal, the
first station beyond the Gap and only 40
miles by railroad from the main army at the
Junction The residue Of Johnston's force
is between Fort Royal and Winchester.
The rebels are also hurrying up their
troops from Richmopd, fredericksburg, and
even as far as Norfolk, to make grand and
determined stand at the Junction. Such
is the appearance Of things here. They
seem, at least, to be disposed for big bat.
