Interesting from Pope's Army.
HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY OF VIRGINIA,
Annnst 7l lSG2.

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY OF VIRGINIA,
August 81, 1862.
After the battle of Ceeder Mountain the
prospect for an immediate and successful ad-
vance seemed exceedingly promising, and thus
matters have rem aimed for several days, the
rebels holding the south bank of the Rapldan
and firing on our pickets at every opportunity.
On Sunday morning last as Colonel Carroll,
who was in command of brigade of General
Ricketts, division, was riding along the outposts
inspectng the pickets, he was fired upon and
badly wounded in the shoulder, and on Mon
dav morning, Captain Walters, of the Harris
Light Cavalry, was shot dead by volley while
giving instruct;o to the sentnels. For some
me the rebels prevented the recovery OF the
body but at length eut.-Col fitzpatrick, with
a small force of cavalry armed with carolnes,
charged down upon the eremy and drove them
from the river, when the remains were placed
in an ambulance and brought into Culpepper
CAPTAIN Walters was one of the most valua-
BILE officers in the service. Experienced, bold
and dashug, yet always cool, he enjoyed the
entire confidence Of his superior officers and
the love of the whole regiment Prisoners
were taken by both parties from time to time,
aud the outposts fiualy became so dangerous
tnat the curious pruuehliy hePO oiooi io'n 'he
locality, very soon rendering the collection OF
items anything but pleasant occupation, and
the items became remarkably scarce at the
front. On Monday we received intelligence
of the advance of the rebels from Richmond
1t was reported along the line that they were
in great force, and orders were given to pre-
mare for an immediate movement. The enthu'
siasm of tbs troops was greatly increased by
the near prospect of another battle, and they
do not seem to fear any danger until it is too
late to fear it, and they have only the option
to meet and fight it. The enemy ola NOT al
vance near enough for fht, aud therefore eV-
erything is quiet up to today fls'ng was

At his residence in Herrick, of Consumption. DEACON
CHARLES STEVENS, aged SO years months and
days.
He was born in New Milford, Ct., ano moved when but
three years of age with his parents to the place
then unbroken wilderness of North East Herrck, where
he resided until his death.
His christian life marked with unusual interest.
His house became from the first home for the Ministers
of the different denominations. 1t is doubted whether
the Methodist ministers of twenty-five thirty years ago
found among their people any warmer in heart
more sympathizng ready to operate with them
in advancing the Redeemer's Kingdom, although him
self an officer in church of another communion. His
house too was the place where the neghbors came
together for prayer the place where he gathered in the
children Tor lbblth sch))l insriton. Tne fact

those Sabbath school instructions at his house. were
blessed to the salvation OF their souls As the impotent
people in oden time sought the pool of Bethes a the

for until health returned again. His conjugal and
domestic peace very During the forty years since

that sometimes after listening to dull by which
the congregation seemed unmoved Deacon Stevens would

be remembered. He called peace-naker and ha
richly inheredth blessing promised to such. He was
deeply interested in the great work of reform among
men, in all that pertaned the progress of truth not
SHY Id this but other lands especially the Of tenn
perance and freedom found in him saunch friend and
advocate and he sighed the apathy of christians in
view of the millions in bonds and wept that their ber
ty must cost rivers of blood. Eminently plain and
practical in all his habits of thought and action the
world had but little hol upon i'm in those forms usual
among His gody simplicity and sincerity seemed re-
markable. As example of this notice the following
expression his feelings in his diary the last Sabbath o.

So the world of mankind are moving on to their hna

and they have desire to be in the presence Of God and
of angels desire to sing the song of redeeng love-

THE LATEST WAR NEWS.

All eyes are directed at this particular time
to the Rappahannock. The concentration OF
the rebel army along the line OF that river and
the RapiGan, and the massing of an immense
Union force in froot of Washington, would
naturally attract such attentions. Of course
important movements OF troops are taking
place in the vicinity of Washington =; but at
the latest accounts all 1ras qu5et along The tenfS
Our forces are now so arranged and organized
and in such strength, that whatever may take
place, we have no fear of the result
The closing scenes of McClellsns army ON
the peninsula were of an interesting character.
Not only did the General succeed in getting
his command safely through from Harrison's
Landing, but he personally superlntended the
movement, aud was the last to leave any OF
the important points along the route.
Secretary Seward has written a letter to
the British Charge d'Affairs to the effect that
foreigners who have not taken out their full
papers are not subject to draft. The Lon
don Times, however, speculating on this ques-
ton, says" 1t will be impossible to extend
the British agis to myriads who may want its
momcntary protection"
From Cairo we learn that Hopkinsville, KY,
had been captured on Friday last by the rebel
johnson, who, with four hundred men, was
marching on Smithand
An important military order has been issued
in New Orleans, by which all the Inhabitants
of that city have been deprived OF their prl-
yate arms, for the reason that at the battle of
Baton Rouge it was discovered that numbers
of the inhabitants of the latter city had been
found among the slain on the battle field
They had joined the rebel ranks
The arrival of the Ariel from Aspinwall
brings US the intelligence that the United
States gunboat Penguin had chased rebel
steamer, supposed to be the Oveto, and had
driven her on the Little Bahamas The same
gunboat had chased another suspicious craft on
to the same banks and when the Ariel spoke
her she was cruising about for the purpose OF
cutting them off,
