/ TUE DESTRUCTION OF THE ocRAc0KE FoRTIP1c..
TIOys.
Commander Rowan shus closes ais report Of
| the affair: "Lieuts. Maxwell and Eastman Der.
formed the service with ability and energy, and
have my thanks. The destrrction of the fat d
complete, and twenty-five guns were disabled
all that were there, with the exception of two,
taken off on Sunday. The destruction Of the
guns was necessity; had no means of tnns-
porting or Of defending them In their position"
VIRGINIA coLoNEL's INTENTIONS.
To my positive knowledge, . message was
received last Sunday afternoon, by lady in
Washington, from the Colonel of the 9th vir.
gpia Regiment, now stationed at or near
Munson's Hill. From the nature Of this message
it would appear that the rebel generals still hold
out the prospect Of an ATTACK upon Washington
to their followers, probably fearing to &C.
knowledge, as yet, the abandonment of that
intention. The Virginia Colonel sent distinct
word that he seonld be ia Washington on SUNDAY
NEXT, and the circumstances forbid the possibility
Of his making any such announcement without
being himself convinced Of its Truth. This
simply shows that officers of considerable rank
iu the rebel army are still made victims of
Dayiss and Beauregards receptions. The Dis
union sympathizers in this city have, with lew
exceptions, at last made up their minds that
their Southern friends do not mean TO fulnli
their original promises. They moreover admit
that any effort of the rebels sgainst the capital
would now be the widest folly. Messages like
the aforementioned are nevertheless frequently
received.
PICKET COURTEsIEs.
A night or two ago, German picket-gusrd
stationed outside of Arlington heard their own
language spoken by the rebel scouts opposite
them. A few words were intercbanged, and the
parties on both sides, finding themselves fellow.
countrymen, proceeded to meet each other in
perfect confidence. So well pleased were they
with their interview that after posting sufficient
number Of guards along the prescribed lines, the
majority returned to the neutral ground, and,
building fire, passed the best part Of the night
together, on the warmest and most smicabls
terms.
THU TABLES TURNED.
Last June JEFF. Davis boosted that he lad the
Federal army at a disadvantage, since it VISA on
the outside of the curve within which his army
lay. II was, therefore, more difficult for rs than
for him to concentrate troops-a boast frequently
repeated. Now, however, that the Rebels have
advanced fron Manassas, and Gen. Banks has
come down stream, the positions are reversed,
and il will take longer for Beauregsrd and
johnson to concentrate troops than for McClel-
Ian, who is perfectly aware Of bis advantage
in having all bis army in hand.
