Headquarters Army Totomac, [
December Fl.
At the present time the Army OF the
Potomac is n the same position 1t has
been ia since it recrossed the Rspidan.
An order to move for better quarters is
expected, especially as the roads, which a
few days ago we're rendered impossible.
are now frozen hard.
As far as we can Judge the rebels have
not changed their position. Our men
have made for themselves most comforta-
bic quarters, impervious to frost and
snow.
1t was stated in a dispatch Saturday that
the rebel cavalry destroyed two bridges
over Bull Run. This is not exactly SO.
They appeared in some force. attacked
cur guards and set fire to one or two Of
the bridges, but the first was extinguish-
ed aud the rebels left without doug any
material damage.

The adjourned caucus Of the Demoorat-
10 members of Congress tonight trans
acted no important business.
Gen. Anger made a trip to-day on the
railroad as far as Bull Run for the pur-
pose Of inspecting the road and providing
against raids by the enemy. The bridges
were found TO be in good condition and
measures have been adopted that will
doubtless prevent another descent being
made upon our lines within this depart
ment.
Guerillas and small squads Of cavalry
still infest the country beyond Manassas
and depredations upon Government prop
erty between that point and the Kappa
hammock are of frequent occurrence.
No credit 10 given here to the dispatch
stating Longstreet's force had been sur
rounded aud Lougstreet killed. The Gov
eminent has received nothing con6rmato-
ry of such statement, although in direct
communication with Gen. Foster.

The Government has decided that the
safety Of American vessels leaving this
port requires that no person shall be al
lowed to leave this port as passenger
or otherwise on any American vessel
without first receiving passport from the
Marshal " the district. Il is understood
that gunboat has already been stationed
at Sandy Hook By Admiral Paulding to
intercept every vessel leaving the port BY
that outlet, and another vessel At the
Frog Neck to examine vessels leaving BY
the sound, with instructions to detsin
such as are without passes. Any oneca
obtain the proper passpcrts who can have
his loyalty voucbed for. The adoption Of
THE stringent measure will probably pre-
