the rebels 40 far as was known to the citi.
zens. II was stated that Beauregard and
Johnston intended to make no stand TINS side
Of Centreville on the nights of which, how
ever. if followed there, they would oppose the
Union forces for while, but, when pressed,
would withdraw to their old position beyond
Phil Run. While cOnversing, the identity OF
our men was detected, aud they were obliged
70 retire ia haste. They report no Obstruc-
tons or barricades Oh the way.
THE REBEL FORCES AT LEEsBURG AND FAIR
FAX COURTHOUSE.
II is certain that the rebels have very small
if auy, force at Leesburg, and are evacuat-
ing il altogether as fast as possible. The
same is true of Fairfax Courthouse, as is
established by Reconnaissance, Of which the
details follow. Beaurcgard has undoubtedly
withdrawn TO Manassas leaving a strong guard
at Centrevllle. If there is any line Of de-
tense beyond the old one, it extends toward
Acquia Greek. The theory that the rebels
have fallen back upon the RappahannOck, is uh-
tenable.
ADVANCE OF GEN. INGALLS, DIvIsIoN-RECoN-
NoIssANCE BY GEN. MCCLELLAN.
Gen. McCall's Division yesterday advanced
on the turnpike to within is miles OF Leesburg.
To-day they fell back two miles to Draines-
VILE Gen. Mcclellan and staff who went out
with them yesterday, spent the night at Gen.
Smiths headquarters, and to-day with Gems.
IL ~ Ipbu
Macomb Major Palmer of the Typographical
Engineers, and three regiments Of Gen. Smiths
brigade made reconnaissance at and near
Vienna. When beyond Vienna, squadron Of
cavalry, forming part of the force, was fired
upon by unseen hands from the wood, and one
man mOrtally wounded, three balls striking him.
COL. mLEs's COURT-MARTIAL.
The Court Martial in the case OF Col. Miles
meets tomorrow at Alexandra. His uuqual-
fed acquittal is considered beyond doubt.
LETTERS FROM THE SOUTH TO ENGLAND.
An English gentleman who came recently
from the Southern States brought several pri-
yate letters from persons there to be forwarded
to friends in England. This was done upon
condition that they should be brought through
unsealed, and submitted to Lord Lyons. The
British Minister however, thought it proper TO
have them pass through the hands of the Sec
rotary of State, who, after examining them,
permitted them to be sent, as originally in
tended.
CONDITION or THE VIRGINIA ROADS.
The interior roads Of Virginia, around Fair
fax Court House, have not suffered so much
from the rains as it was supposed they would.
They are in much better condition than the
roads around Washington.
