The FedeTsl Frces in Yirania

The National Intelligencer of Saturday
says
"As many rumors have, for the last
day or two, been industriously circulated
respecting alleged military events and
movements in the Department of the
Army of Virginia, it may be proper to
state, from the information that reached
us, that there is no foundation for thes e
reports so far as they speak of battles, or
of any results unfavorable to the Union
arms IN that quarter.
Considerable skirmishing has been
kept up between the advancing posts OF
the two armies, but nothing like battle
has taken place. The position Of the
different cSaaanands of Gen. Pope's army
is understood TO have been taken in ac-
cordance with concerted plans. The
movements that haye been made are sim
ply strategic .

Another Account.

Fces, Correspondent Of The " Y. Tribune.
shytog's STATION Va. Wednesday, June As p
have Just come down from the extreme night OF
Gen. McClean's army, where our batteries have
been constantly occupied along the line in Smelling
the enemy, but without drawing from them but al
occasional reply.
At this station / have gathered the following par
tcnars Of a reconnaissance in force the center and
which has resulted in continual skrmsbng through
out the day. Shortly before o'clock this morning,
the 18th and 9TH New-Jersey Regiment, who were
ont on picket. were withdrawn. and Scklecs Brigade
advanced and engaged the enemy, who met them in
considerable force at the strip Of woods IN front Of
the Seven Pines where the battle Of the 3st Of May
Iyas frst commenced. Gen. Rockers Brigade were
drawn no in line of battle in the field formerly
pied by Gen. Casey's division, while Doubleday 8
battery Of 10 Napoleon guns-eight Of them bearing
on the Williamsburg road-were in readiness to open
q deadly fire should the enemy show bis face.
Meantime, Sickless men were hard at work
tlaughteriug the enemy, and gradually forcing them
back. finally, after several hours Of fighting, the
Excelsiors were Withdrawn to take breathing spell
and Gen. Hookers brigade-consistng Of the 5th
9Th, eth and 9Th New-Jersey Volunteers, and tho I'd
New-York-were sent out TO relieve them and they,
as usual went at the enemy like veterans, forcing
them back Richmondward. The Rebels made
short resistance at their rhepit in the field just be-
yond the woods and then evacuated it-probaby
with a view of drawing our forces into trap; but
aftor taking possession of the pit, Gen. eintzelman
ordered a halt. About half mile has thus been
gained. The number Of killed and wounded on our
eide will probably reach 3OO that Of the enemy must
be quite AZ great c.
