1Tribune's Dispatch An officer sta =
toned ct Hampton reached Washington to-
day. BE says that Federal forces in that
vicinity are perfectly secure in their posi-
tion, having complete information regard
ing the enemy every day from volunteer
negroes who ROok into camp, some coming
even the distance from Yorktown To-
morrow there viii be reconnaissance
toward Yorktown, where it is believed the
enemy are not in force. Sewalrs Point
battery serves TO amuse and occupy the
enemy.
There was a skirmish q night or two

this city. TEo of orr soldiers we're slight
ly wounded. Several secessionists badly
wounded. -- ii ..f frt
Marshal BoRnafonf returned TO Baltimore
this morning. He is instructed by Secre
tsry Cameron to arrest all persona plotting
against the Government, ard seize all arms
and ammunition in the possession Of such
persons, or which may have been secreted
By them, and to appoint an additional
force Of deputies sufficient TO enable him
efficiently 10 guard all the highways lead
ing from thereby Marshal Bonnafont

Lieutenant Colonel Enyart and Captain
Frank P Gahin, of the LIST Regiment of
the Kentucky volunteers, arrived here to-
day, and have had B very satisfactory in
terEieW with Secretary Cameron and Gen.
Scott. The object of their visit is TO obtain
arms for the Kentucky Brigade which is
comprised Of the 1st and "a Regiments,
numbering 1900, under Command of Col
Guthrie. r5la sli7s' af Tala
Theg we're assured by General Scott that
Gen. Mcclellan Will be Immediately in
structed to supply the Brigade with arms
and sccoutrements, and that orders we're
issued to Col Guthrie to report to Adj
Col Guthrie's headquarters at Louisville
with his command forthwith. iT
On Capt. Gahill remarking to Gen. Scott
that this order would test the potency of
Gov. MsgOfhn's proclamation, and that in
all probability collision would ensue at
the outset between the Brigade and the
seCessiOniSts at louisville, the General
replied: "You shall be sustained, sir. We
can send you twenty thousand men in 8
days"
Capt Cahill also says Col. Anderson was
quite i'll when he left Kentucky. He con-
firms the assertion made by Eihridge, that
eight in every ten in Louisville are loyal,
but says there are many there protesting
loyalty who are really secretly ecnniving
with the rebels, as in Baltimore
The SpeA kership Of the next House will
probably be given to Grow Of Pa, or Blair
Of No. - GOO i
The State Department win be draped in

Trustworthy Intelligence is to the effect
that the enemy Is in motion, and an stack
on our lines within twenty -four hours ia
looked foF.lofq sdi 9sd3i-i
1t is known that the rebels are in des-
psrats situation, that the Harper's Ferry
troops are on the point Of being attacked,
and will be forced by the cooperating
movements Of Generals Mcclellan and
Patterson to retreat, be cut of, or make a
forlorn hope Of an attack on this city. II
is probable that if made IL will be on this
side Of the Potomac, the foe crossing aboEs
the entrenchmenis on Arlington Heights
and ct Alexandria, which are too strong tC
be attempted. We are ready at all points
It is rumored to night that Harper
Ferry has been vacated, and the troops
marched soHth, The rumor could not b.
traced to any authoritative source.
