A part of Gen. Lees army is already in
the Valley of Virginia, and a part probably
in Maryland. The rest will probably fol-
low on. AT all events, Richmond is about
to be uncovered of the defense afforded
by the proximity of his troops. They will
be removed to some more distant point,
whence they cannot be brought instantly
and readily 10 our assistance, if assistance
we should need. This summer scampaign
cannot be conducted effectively, if large
numbers of onr regular troops are detailed
to guard and protect our cities, aud other
assailable points. In country and in town.
we must protect ourselves against raidfng'
parties by means of ths,militia and of vols
unteer associations for home defense. l,i
We learn from the United States papers
that tits proposed in Pennsylvania to call
out the militia up to sixty years of age, to
repel apprehsDded i1VSst0n. Sball we d o
less to tepel actual gasion2 If she be
ready to make such sacrifices to snbiugate
us, should we not< be willing to make
greater sacrifices 10 defend ourselves I?
Boys, from twelve to eighteen, are excel
lent marksmen, and although il might de-
moralize their principles, iDjure their char
acter and endanger ttteir health, to enlist
them regularly in the army and expose
them to the hardships of camp, of long
marches, and OF Indifferent diet, yet they
may be drilled more readily than old men,
and made effcieut soldiers in sudden
emergency to aid in the defense OF the
city and its enVirous.

member of Gen. Green's staff which announces
the defeat of TWO Yankee columns in Louisiana
Franklns division encountered portion of Tay-
lor's army, under Green, near Alexandria, on the
9th November, and after stubborn fight the Yam
KEGS were routed, with loss Of their stores and
six hundred prisoners. Weizel's division is repor-
ted routed by Gen. Taylor, Opeousas The
expedition is said to be abandoned, and portion
of the troops have returned to Port Hudson and
Baton Rouge.
MERIDIAN, Nov ia special despatch from
Summit, dated the 18th, says that,a gentleman
from New Orleans reports that the Yankee Texas
expedition at Matagorda Bay wrecked. Seven
transports driven ashore and captured with
ali on board. Gen. Banxs, who accompanied the
expedition, has not been heard from. Doubtful. ]
HANDSOME AFFAIR IN MIss1ssIpp1.-The
following official despatch was received at the War
Office:
"Gen. s. Cooper: The following despatch from
Tuniso, Miss, received dated 10Th inst, from
Col. Harry Maury, commanding 18th Cavalry
Regiment: We dashed in yesterday above Bayou
Sara, on plundering party of Yankees, three
hundred strong, drove them to their iron-clads
with great slaughter, and brought off their wagon
trains and twenty-five prisoners from under the
broadsides of their gun boats. Only three woun-
ded OF ours. d. q. MAURY, Maj. Gen'l.

FIRE.-A little before o'clock on Saturday
night. the 14th instant a FIRE broke out in the
warehouse on Water Street next North of the Gus
tom House. The building belonged to o. G. Pars-
ley, ESQ, and was rented by j FL. Flanner. Spite
of all efforts the part of the fireman and others,
the building, with its contents, totally destroy
ed, but the spread of the confagration arrest
ed at that point The night, r-c-.-entially, was
very rainy, which was favorable circumstance,
as otherwise the fire might have been very destruc-
tive, as had the large building next north become
involved, it would have been impossible to say
where its progress could have been stayed.
On inquiry, since the fire, we have learned that
there we're in the building one hundred and fifty
bales of cotton belonging to the State and to other
parties but chiefly to the State and to John Fra
Ger 4 Co. We were grati6ed to learn that the car
60 of the Advance had been already removed,
there being only, besides tie cotton five barrels of
machinery oil, and two bales bagging, intended to
be used 10 the repair of defective bags on cotton
for shipment. The oil and bagging belonged to
the State
1t is difficult if not impossible to ascertain how
the fire originated The warehouse had been visi-
ted after dark and signs Of fire discovered, al
though it may have been lurking there, perhaps
from spark from a cigar or pipe used by some
negro This, however, is only supposition.
The heaviest loss is probably that of the build
ing, which cannot now be replaced. The value OF
the contents was between thirty and forty thousand
dollars, probably nearer the latter sum than the
former Wilmington Journal.

FROM THE RAPIDAN-It was reported at or
louisville on yesterday that the Yankees were NOV
ing down towards Fredericksburg, and that the
demonstration at the upper fords of the Rapidan,
on Sunday, was for the purpose of covering that
movement From indications with which the we'll
informed were conversant, it was thought that the
enemy would attempt crossing at Germanna
Ford, and that an engagement would occur on the
occasion.
