Who came up on the mail-boat fred some musketry
where it was suspected there were Rebel rihe-p.~
or batteries but everything that could indicate that
the Rebels are going to annoy us, and that sney
working along the river banks has BEEN well es-
tab ished as a positive fact. Mr.. r. Lathrop, the
pilot of the Warner, informs that he came up,
yesterday, he saw, at plNe called the Seven-Mle
Reach and opposite CS,nbells Marsh, about 100
mounted men, Who fell back into the woods W hen

may mention here that sheets of iron have been
placed all roupi the pilot-bouses Of mail boats,
an0 that nearly every DO&t Hat leaves nort makes
provision ID some manner to protect its pilot
house, 20 sure are they that they will be opened
upon by the Rebel batteries at no distant day. The
Rebels know the vast importance that the james
River is to our army AID they are not going to re-
main idle.
Our gunboats cannot be too vigilant in watching
the river banks lest some powerful batteries may
open on them when they least expect it. Positive
information was re eeved last evening, about or
o'clock, that the Rebels were putting up very

a harms way. lSome of the folks whose quarters
are convenient to the landing were much scared, as
they expected the battery would open on their posi-
ton during the night.
The Third Massachusetts Battery was sent down,
and they stationed themselves on the river bank,
ready to respond TO the Rebels should they CON-

The doctors of the different armies dned together,
md the utmost good feeling prevailed on the
