THE ARMY OF TIE POTOMAC

Since the passage OF the Potomac by our forces
The difficulty OF obtaining any thing reliable of their
movements has been greatly enhanced So far AS
.ar information extends, no one has received sny
s,sh4n,ic accounts Of the direction of onr tro,ps
n MARYLAND. The programme mssk ed out for them
= doubtless known in official qnsr,ers Lut even
this may be varied by the circums ances connected
with snd surrounding Inv asion II can scarcely he
.xpested that their progress will be entirely upm
p.ded whether they move in the din setlon Of
washington the Relay, take a more norsher,y
rate and aim blow At the capital Of Pennsylya
nis
nwss sisted yesterday afternoon, bat how sas.
rsctly leave the reader Judge, that our army
reached Frederick City. Nd. on Saturday. Cros.
as As they did on Friday. there was nothing In the
dstsnee from the river To ,hst point to prey eli,
ihsir reaching there At the time stated The dis.
tsnce from Frederick TO the Relay, by The old
ssiions road is about forty miles. snd by ths Ral
,.rsore sud Ohio Railroad about fifty miles From
Frederick TO Washington City. through Rockville,
10 Montgomery county, the distance is abou, the
sarne, perhaps not so great From the several
points where army crossed the Potomac, via
Rockville TO Washington the distance Is less than
thirty miles. Prom Frederick City TO HARRISBURG
VS. Gettysburg and Carlisle. the distance does not
exceed seventy miles. SO that, il they moved on
Frederick. and rsschsd that city as stated on Sat
urdsy 1t is highly probable that they are already
ever the borders Of Pennsylvania, and within sssy
distance of her capital.
There was another report, however that afte
crossins our forces moved In the direction nf tbs
Relay, on the Baltimore srd Ohio Ra,lro ad, nine
miles west Of Baltimore. Coming TO us ~ a umof
give II for Whist II is worth, without pretending
TO decide upon its probability. Connected with
hi; rumor was one TO the effect that there have
been An uprising of the people of Baltimore in re-
sis,auce 10 the Federal authority and that the
Ysnkee Provost Msrshal Of the city had been
hlied. We have ail slong believed that the peo
pie of Baltimore would not quietly submit to Lin
colnism day after the passing Of the Potomac by
our troops and confirmation of this rumor of an
uprising would cause us no surprise. The difficulty
Is said TO have originated In All attempt OF the Fed
erA officials 10 remove the Government, stores from
that city TO the North, TO which the people ta
objected and pitched in after the style OF he
18th of April ls6l, with brick bats aud other
sible weapons. There was also q 81 stement to The
effect that entire regiment of Maryland troops
lad joined standard renouncins their allie
glance TO the abolition government.
The monument to General Barlow was entirely
torn down by the Yankees, at Manassas, and the
Lswis Hotel, where Besursga and Johnston had
their headquarters, was burned 10 the ground.
Anderson's brigade lost 623 men out of 800 car
ried into action.
The ID company Washington artillery Captain
Eosser, performed rather unusual feat-sraduai
ly nearing an enemy's battery, firing meanwhile
until hey sctuslly charged the battery out of
position.

Col. William Falls while heading Tennessee re.
ginsnt. He was formerly citizen Of Richmond,
aud was a brsye officer. His body has been reeoy-
