From Washington.

Washington. June 5.
The government regards as a palpable
fact, that the movers in the present rebellion
never entertained the expectation of achev
ing revolution. What they desired was to
open point for foreign Intervention ON which
they relied to overthrow the Union. They
began their intrigues even before they ven
tured upon the rebellion, and ever since have
applied themselves to this work of interven-
ton. The pretence of revolution was there
fore fraud, and is now exposed to the
world. =
s 1t is not doubted that these views are now,
or soon will be known to European govern
ments, through the Secretary of State.
Lieut.. DeWolf, wounded at Williamsburg,
died at the house OF Representative Arnold
to-day. He served calamity at Frederick
ton, Belmot and Fort Donelson.
Acting Asst Paymaster Charles +. Fitch
and Henry w. Hide, have been ordered, the
former to the Tiaga, and the latter to the
Gennessee.
A highly interesting report was made by
the House this afternoon by Representative
Blair of Missouri, from the committee on
military affairs, with an amendment reported
as supplementary section to the pending
bill for enlarging the Illinois canal, and I'M
proving the Illinois River. The section pro-
vides for enlarging the locks OF the Erie and
Oswego canals to size adequate TO pass

Gen. Fremont's Headquarters,
$500. .. . Woodstock, Va, Juue 2.
Gen. Fremont, after occupying Strasburg
last night, was obliged by the darkness and
tremendous storm, and the fatigue of his men,
to delay his advance till morning.
At six the pursuit of the retreating enemy
was resumed, and vigorously continued dur
ing the day. ~a
Gen. Nc Dowell's advance being part of
brigade under Gen. Bayard, reached Stras-
burg this morning, and was ordered forward
by Gen. Fremont to join in the pursuit with
the cavalry and artillery.
The enemy to retard pursuit, endeavored
to make stand in three strong positions with
artillery, but were driven rapidly and with
loss from each. .s.l
Jackson's rear guard passed through Wood
stock this afternoon, the head of his column
having reached it at sun rise.
Col Prison, chief OF artillery on General
Fremont's staff, who selected with great skill
the successive positions for the batteries, is
wounded by the fall of his horse, which was
shot under him while accommodating within
thirty yards of the enemy.
The batteries engaged were Schiermer's
and Bulls of Gen. Stahls brigade.
The LIST New Jersey and LIST Pennsy lvania
cavalry under Gen Bayard, and the 9Th
| Ohio and Stewards Indiana cavalry under
| Col. Lagorey were in the advance driving
the enemy before them, and in support of
| the batteries.
The roads and woods were slrewed with
arms stores and clothing.
A large number of prisoners have been
taken. Our loss is one killed and several
wounded.
Gen Fremont's rapid march, combined
with Gen. McDowelps movement, has wholly
relieved the Shenandoah valley and Northern
Virginia. .-..-.s.. -,
