FROM GEN. MCCLELLAN'S ARMY.

NEAR YoRKrowx, April 9-1.2O p. M.-The
weather still continues unfavorable for mill
tary operations. 1t has been raining for near
" two days. The creeks are very much
swollen, and the low grounds are covered with
water, making the roads almost impossible
for the supply wagons. The information re-
ceived shows that the rebels have a force OF
sixty thousand, which is rapidly being added
to by troops from the neighborhood of Rich
mond, which is one day from Yorktown by
railroad and the river. they having four steam
ers and sixteen transports IN use, and by the
time the roads are in condition for the Union
army to move, the rebels may be able to meet
them with 100 600 men.
The flower of their army, with the best
arms, are in a strongly entrenched position.
Previous to our troops occupying the present
position, the military authorities had no means
OF ascertaining the extent OF the rebel works.
Information obtained through deserving con
trabands, and other sources. show that the en-.
envy have nearly five hundred guns. some of
them of the largest cali6er. The rebel 9ener-
al Johnston, wi h some of his iorces has ar.
rived, and taken command in person, showing
that they intend making desperate resistance
to the advance OF our troops at every point.
Their entertainments extend entirely across
the peninsula, from the James to the York
river.
The cheering news from the western de-
partment arrived here TO day aud our troops
are wild with enthusiasm over the result and
are anxious TO be led to achieve similar deeds
of valOr.

Our column under command Of Col. Slough
is breaking up camp for forward movement
south, towards the rebel forces. The Texan
army occupies strong position IN the vicinity
of Albuoueruue, seventeen miles south Of this

fort Craig, where Col. Candy was, at last ac
counts The Texans have taken up this as a
strategical point doubtless intending TO march
upon either column as they leave Their strong
hold for fort Union or fort Craig, and by their
superior force, estimated at 21OO, and Il pieces
of artillery, whip one and face about and as
sault the other column before they can form
junction. 1t would seem that Col Slough,
and Col Candy, the department commander,
are not acting in concert, and sound men tear
that this movement, one Of the most difficult
of military combinations, may not prove sue
cessful. and may render our depot at tort

comparatively deienseless. ! can scarcely be
