WASHINGTON, Sept. @, 1867.
Our troops hare full possession OF the Vlr-
g1nia side Of the Potomac, where the rebels
recently had their heavy artillery planted
The belief prevails that lighting on the up
Per Potomac is at an end, that the rebels will
haEdly renew the contest by attempting to
cross the Potomac again.
. It is reported that reconnaissance fully e.
t2b1ishes the fact that there is no rebel force
in our Immediate front, between the fortiica-
tons OF Washington and the mountains around
Thoroughfare Gap.
1t is stated that Lee has been sending back
apertion- Of his forces towards Gordonsyillc.
though the information on which this is based
is roi known to be wholly reliable. It is be-
NeVed, however, that the rebels will hardly
mite u'rt holding their present position long.
and that their movements give some Indication
t1sher Of the purpose of falling back to their
old situation, or Of moving partica ct LEAST
Of their force into tie valley Of Virginia il not
further wsst
1t turns out that we have wholly lost the ad-
vantage OF. the large number Of prisoners pa-
roIed By Gen. Burr side in North Caroline. and
Mcclellan III Nes, ri Virginia, as well as OF
numbers Of other prisoners taken and paro,cd
at different times. The rebels have uniformly
kept accurate and complete lists Of prisoners
they have taken from us and parolcd, while
ne have failed TO b: equally exact,
They, therefore, in making exchanges,
rtfusc to recognize our statements
ahort the Plumbers paroled at: Rich Mcun-
talp, Roanoke, ar some other pointe, unless
We can produce satisfactory descriptive lists,
which is, Of course, out of our power. Tney
thus get their own pazoled prisoners blck
promptly into service by making IN exchange.
While thousands of ours, whom We could
Promptls exchange for the Rich Mountain and
ether rebe1 prisoners. If ne oul3 had the lists.
urc sf!E bound by their parole, and thus kept
cut Of our service.
The new department OF Missouri Just cre-
ated hiss bten expected for some time, Il
was at first understood that Pope was to be
sent to it instead Of the Northwest. The
theory seems to be that the commander Of the
department Of Ohio has quite enough to do to
take care Of Kentucky, without being bur-
dened with the charge Of Missouri also.
RosecraIs' friends believe that advantage
Will b. taken OF his recent victory to make
h'm q major-gcneral-a promotion which, they
.ay, the department has 'or some time been
aTaitirg The opportunity to make.
Ccnucrille has been re~occupied By our
frot ps without opposition. We shall proba-
lily soon hare the railroad running out to
Manassas Junction again.
