WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-The intelligence
received last night, and additionally confirm
ed this morning, OF the occupation oil Freder-
lex City, Md, by the rebel forces, naturally
excited much surprise, mingled with indig-
nation and alarm. Frederick City is about
sixty miles from Baltimore by the railroad
line, and forty overland from Washington
by way of Rockville, Darnestown, and Pool
esville, Md. There ara but limited opportu-
mites here of obtaining information from
that point, almost all Tho Intelligence coming
by way OF Baltimore. The Government au-
thoiities received the news yesterday, in a
written or documentary form. t.rLss
During last night immense bodies oftroops
were in motion for the Upper Potomac and
eloewhere, aud to day the military operations
continue. Nearly all the rebel troops have
apparently bsen withdrawn from our front,
certainly none in large iorce remain. Their
n ext movement is q matter gof conjecture,
but precautions have been taken to guard in
certain quarters against probable damages
| by them. sal1sF sSjE@2
! There is no doubt but that large reinforce
ments Of rebels were yesterday passing from
Ashby's Gap, south OF Leesburg, as il intend
ing to cross at Smokers Ferry, which is be
| tween Point Of Rocks and Edwards Ferry.
The rebels move in solid column, first cayal
ry, next artillery, then iantry with the
baggage in rear, and these again are followed
In the same order by similar descriptions of
troops The people Of the valley have com
tribuied to their sustenance, and doubtless
furnished them all needful information.
Nothing has been heard from our troops
at Harper's Ferry and Martinsburg, who are
cut from reinlorcements by. the movement o (
the enemy toward Frederick. A gentleman
who arrived here to day, having lett Freder
ick between nine and ten O'Clock last night
on horseback, says the rebel force there is es.
timated at 10000, under Jackson. From
his conversation with the rebel soldiers, he
derived the impression that one Of their OBJ
jects is to destroy The Northern Central
Pennsylvania Railroad, or otherwise operate
in that State, and that they have ulterior de-
signs en- Washington and Baltimore. Our
informant was glad to leave the neighborhoodl
of Frederick, without carrying anything along
to verify the date. .. .. ID. 81. .... ...
