Among the arrivals to-day Is Capt. r. q. Young
direct from Richmond, having left that city on Toes
day by a flag Of truce down the james RIVER lie
and, Major w. c. Barney, Of New YORK were cap
iured Oh he 2lst OF September, While on hofie-
back tour in the vicinity Of Bull Run, by The Ihf-
ris,b Virginia Cavalry under Colonel Chainbloss-a
graduate Of West Point.
The prisoners spent four days pleasantly on the
,vav to Richmond, and were treated kindly and
bosnitsLly Ly their capiors, and by all whom they
met on the route.
The cavalry regiment Of Col. Cbambloss was
handsomely mounted ard uniformed, and fully
equipped.
There appeared 10 be al abundance Of salt, -four,
fresh beef and shoes among tire soldiers.
Good discipline prevailed among, the Rebel trooIs
They treated each other with great kindness aud
eourtesy. No whisky drinking Ior card-playing
was allowed among them.
Much comment IL made by the Rebel troops as TO
the careless manner in which our dead were buried
on the plains Of Manassas
All the Rebel soldiers denounce Gen. Pope, bat
sneak in tue most complimentary terms Of Gen.
Mcclellan.
The coun,ry districts are exhausted Of food for
man and beast, and, in consequence apprehension
exist u great distress among the people during the
coming Winter.
Everybody has plenty Of paper money oil all
descriptions and denominations
The treatment Of Union prisoners at Libby Prison
has been changed for the better, and those confined
with Capt Young had no cause 10 complain. lie
and thirty others were put in II large, cool and
loo..,, r,o,o and uere attended by the guar1s and
servants with marked kindness. Rations We're
served regularly, and a suter constantly present.
The morning newspapers were served at daylight.
| Col. Daniel Ullman and Leut.-Col. Browne Of
New-York regiments, and about 700 others arrived
at Annapolis to-day having left Richmond on Tues-
day morning.
The Rebel troops are rapidly receiving their new
uniforms consisting Of dark gray woolen jackets
and light blue PANTS, &C. They say there il no lack
of arms, and that they have more cannon than can
lie used.
The general Impression among them is that the
war will not end until the expiration Of President
Lincoln's term Of Office.
EVERYBODY, however, is sick Of hostilitief, and
the troops desire 10 return 70 their homes yet one
constantly hears the remark, " You may cxter-
inmate us, but you cannot suljugato us''
The New Merrimac is not finished yet.
EIGHT dollars bushe, was asked for sweet pota-
toes. Rye, coffee, aud sugar brought dollar
mound each. There was little or DO molasses on
sale Tin drinkiDg-cups sold for 10 cents each, and
all other necessaries in proportion. Major Barney ls
still detained at the Libby Prison. Capt. Young
was released Internationally.

W,srryeTox THURSDAY, Oc.. 9, 1892.
\ small body Of Gen. Sisels cavalry captured IN
Alde this morning over 40 prisoners severn loads
Of bacon, and one ambulance The prisoners were
paroel.
The rcconolering force cent ont by Gen. Stshel
saw no large body Of the enemy At Aide or Middle
bury.
A rcconnoissnce in force was made to-day to
Rappahannocl Station on the Orange and Alex
andria Railroad. Col. Davies, in command OF 300
cavalry and light battery, marched yesterday
morning from Baey's Cross Roads, under instruc-
tious to proceed to Rappahannock S alton and re-
capture from four 10 six locomotives which Gen.
Banks had been unable to destroy or bring away on
lis retreat. II was believed that the bridge across
the Rappahannock, which the Rebels were building,
had not been finished. The force proceeded over
Stone Bridge TO Manassas, thence along the south
side Of the railroad to Bristow, nine miles beyond.
Here they bivouaoked for the night
This morning the Is, New jersey Regiment, COM
manded by Col. Percy Wyndham, was pushed for
ward along the track, the main body remaining at
Bristow. They passed Catletts and Warenton
Junction both places being deserted At about Q q.
IN they encountered tine Rebel yideiies aud drove

Station aud within sight Of tie river. Here they
discovered that the bridge far compleied tia,
the Rebels succeeded in getting the locomotives and
cars across, leaving behind their freight of lroyi
sions. The troops at Rappahannock Station were
drawn up in line OF battle. They consisted Of
brigade OF Rebel infantry, among them the l3th
Virginia, and two three squadrous Of Prince Wiz
liam cavalry with artillery.
Az his instructions were not to bring on an en-
Qarement, unless one were necessary in order %
secure the LOCOMOTIVES Col. Davies did Dot attack
the town; but il is believed that il he bad received
carte blanch, instead Of restricted an order the
enemy might easily have been driven acToss the
Rappahannock.
There is 10 large force Of Rebels on this side OF
Gordonsvile, CulpePper and all the country north
west Of the Rapidan being entirely evacuated by tie
sodiery, except straggers. and small guards in oc-
cupation Of The iowns.
An officer who ACCOMPANIED the Reconnaissance
