LATE FROM FREDERICKSBURG
A GAME OF STR A TIE G Y.
Both Armies Humbugged.
REBELS FEAR A FIRE IN THE REAR.

New YORK, Dec. "A special dis
patch is as follows: 1.
OPPOSITE FREDERICKSBURG, Nov 80
Rebels still continue fortifying vigor-
ously on the second line. 1t is now be-
lieved they have thrown their infantry
force further to their rear, where their
camp fires are not so visible, instead of
evacuating their position as spoken of in
yesterdays dispatch. 1t is believed in
official quarters that the rebel force about
fredericksburg and within call, is from
100000 to 125, 200.
No supplies of vegetables have yet been
distributed, though they were forwarded
several days ago. Bilious diseases and
symptoms of scurvy grow worse.
The. Herald's special, dated Fairfax
Nov. 1lth, says: The expedition under
Stahl was undoubtedly one of the most
brilliant and successful affairs of the war,
both in its conception and execution. It's
principal object was to ascertain the
whereabouts of Stonewall Jackson, and
what forces are on the right This and
more was accomplished. Jackson with
both the Hills, passed through Newman
ket last Wednesday on his way South.
1t is presumed he has gone to interrupt
Gen. Coxs advance.
Prisoners captured by Sahl report
that White, leader of Whites Cavalry,
was twice wounded in a skirmish at
Bcrryvile.
The Times Falmouth special says two
deserters report the rebel force at from
rs 900 to 100000, certainly not to ex-
coed the latter Though suffering for
the want of clothing, and many times
for supplies, they are apparently hopeful
of final success. Lee and associates are
puzzled over the movements of our army,
which they do not seem fully to eompre-
bend, and have finally concluded that the
advance from Fredericksburg is feint
designed to amuse them, while the main
attack upon Richmond is to come from
another quarter. On this theory, they
now believe our force in front of Frede-
ricksburg in reality to be small, and that
immense hosts are being embarked at
Belle Plain and conveyed in transports
up James River Acting on this idea,
they have commenced erecting earth
works for the protection of a garrison
force, while the main body of their army
has again commenced moving towards
Richmond.

CnANTILLY, Va, Nov, Brigadier
General Stahl has justreturned. He at
tackled the enemy at Smokers Ferry and
followed them with three hundred caEal-
ry into their camps, on the other side of
the river, and near Berryville Our men
charged splendidly whenever they met
the enemy. White cavalrywe driven
in all directions, nearly all their officers
captured, and their colors taken. White
himself fled and hid in a house in Berry
Vile
The Sd, It'll, and 18th Virginia cavalry
were also attacked and routed Four of
their men, with their horses, were taken,
and fifty killed and wounded, and two
stands1 of colors taken One wagon
load of pistols and carbines were picked
up on the road, thrown away by the fly
ing enemy. Eighty cattle and eighty
horses were also brought in. Our loss
in killed and wounded is about fifteen.
Gen. Stahl reports there is brigade
under Gen. Jones at Winchester, but that
Jackson's main force was at Newmarket
last Wednesday, as previously reported.

The Times of the Goth November, in
its city article, says the report that Mr..
Seward has addressed our Government
in tone Of displeasure at aid alleged to
have been given the Alabama in British
ports, created for time, some little un-
easiness on the stock exchange. Many
persons believed that no Minister would
put himself in such a position as that
which Mr.. Seward occupies on this ques-
ton, unless it were in the desperate hope
of finding cause of exte: nal quarrel at
any cost, in order to avert impending
events at home.
The leading papers reiterate the argu-
ment that the Federal Government has
no grounds for complaint in the case of
the Alabama. The Federals have no.
toriously taken advantage of all oppor-
tunities of this kind offered rs
