The excitement is more intense here to-day
than it has been since last Friday. Rumors ay
through the streets thicker til an ever, and some
Of them of the most Improbable character. The
army Of Virginia is unquestonably falling back
on Washington. The evidence of this fact comes
from too many sources to leave room for doubt
on the subject. It 10, of course, Of the greatest
importance to know Why il 10 falling back. 1Sso.
ries have been rife that the national forces had
been beaten back by Lee and Jackson This ia
untrue. Our troops last night had not been at
| talked this side of Bull Run. Another story,
! which fnds many believers, is, that Gen. Pope
discovered that the rebels were making flank
movement upon his army and that he was CON-
PEELED to fall back. . F.-ltw - sR9tD
The secessionists here have graveIy asserted
this morning that Jackson is crossing the Poto-
mac at Edwards Ferry with 40, 600 men, while
Lee remains in front. Of course this talk is wild
ard has no foundation. The real truth Of the
meeting was held, at which Il Was finally decid.
ed to issue orders for the army TO fall back Upon
the old Potomac line, for six or eight weeks, I'm.
til the new levies shall have been slightly discip
lined. 255R : ,sEsb 991ai Tl1HaDi1 l.@'

very strongly. Gen. Mcclellan ages With him
on this point. They say that no great risk in
reference to the capital should b encountered
