FROM THE ARMY OFTHE POTOMAC,
Order by Gen. Hooker Against Incorrect
Information from Picket Lines, and
Loose Discipline generally.

WAsHISaroS Monday. April -. 1864
Maior-fien. Hooker has issued an order, in which
be reprimuuds in general terms officers who send in
correc. information from the picket lines. The out
posts Of an army, he says, are its safeguards, and
this duty must be go performed that the camps are
not unnecessarily disturbed. Officers Of outposts
are expected to inform themselves accurately Of oil
events TRANSPORTING in their vicinity and those whose
fears magnify squads into large bodies Of the enemy
as richly deserve death US the base wretch who de-
serts his country flag or bis comrades in battle.
1t has been TOO muc1 practice upon outPosis and
bate-felds to send back reports and calls for rem
forcements founded on imagination or the tales Of q
frightened or cowardly shirk. The fate Of battle
may be changed by such reports. Officers will be
held responsible that their reports from the front
perfectly ustwotby. Corps commanders will take
effeclusl measures 10 prevent struggling, which must
not I've permitted. Regiments not moving promptly
ss ordered permitting struggling, or where the Off
GERS show lack Of capacity and zeal in pushing for
ward and overcoming obstacles, must be specially
reported for such neglect, in addition to other meas
ures that may be taken By commanders in such CAGES
for the enforcement Of discipline.

We learn through private channels that the Rebels
under Gen. Longstreet assumed the offensive on
Saturday, and attacked our forces under Gen.
Reyes in and about Yorktown. The fight, Of
which we have no particulars, lasted some time,
and the result was the repulse Of the Rebels, who
fell back to Williamsburg, leaving behind them
considerable ammunition and other spos Of war.
The Rebels, under Gen. Pryor, about the same
time, assumed threatening attitude towards the
forces Of Gen. Peck at Suffolk. Although rumors
were rife at Fort Monroe and at Norfolk, Of battle
between the two armies, no authentic intelligence
had been received up to yesterday evening.
The unusual activity Of the Rebels on both sides OF

generally, We cannot understand how an officer can
permit himself to curse those who FROM the highest

Perhaps the worst effects of the indulgence in this

proclamation upon the people Of the
North realized; Gov. Andrews swarms
do not throng the roads of Massachusetts,,
and volunteering has been at stand
still. As to the political effect Of the
proclamation at the North nothing need
be said: the enthusiasm it has evoked
has all been on the wrong side; and some
of the most ardent advocates of enamel
patton have been SO disheartened by this
that they began before the proclamation
had been out a month to talk about let
ting the South go if we cannot subdue
the rebellion before May. The pretense
of some of our malcOntents that the proc
lamation is powerless because it does not
declare free the slaves in the loyal States
is not even speciOus; it is merely alb
surd."
The Republican then goes on to try
and prove that the proclamation has done
US some good abroad, which we do not
believe, and may yet be of service in the
progress of the war, which is very un-
likely in view of what it has done so far,
Union men would do well to circulate
extensively the above very clear state
ment of what the radicals prophesied and
expected and what really took place.
Surely never since the organization offree
governments has great political party
made such terrible fasco as has the
Republican administration party of this
country in this matter of the emancipa-
ton proclamation.
