OUR MILITARY BUDGET.
FROM R0SECRANs' ARMY.

kilograms have been received here from Gen.
Rosecrans up to noon yesterday. They show
all well with his army. The enemy had not
yentured to attack him in his ne position up
to that hour.
A Mr.. Shapks, a New York Herald CORES
pendent, having arrived ut Cincinnati from
Rosecrans' army, which he left after Sundays
battle, sends broadcast in the shape of his m
dlridual gossip (rather than through the Her.
aids columns) his opinion that Rosecrans' ar.
my was disastrously defeated, with the loss of
fifty pieces of artillery, &c.
In addition to the tact that his opinion of the
result differs widely indeed from that of Gen.
Rosecrans ana his general officers who were
in the fight, (as MIR. Shanks probably was not. J
and in addition to the further fact that Rose
Grams did moi lose SO pieces Of artillery, it is
sufficient to remind the reader that this same
Mr. Shanks is already as famous for under
rating the results of the fighting of our troops
and Tor prognosticating dangers and disasters
nat never occur, as either the New York
World or Ne'cs; generally in this same way
by getting some agent of the Associated Press
10 telegraph in all directions what he saws
IN his individual capacity derosatory t. the
achievements OF our troops. and what he thinks
Will befall them in the way Of future mishaps.
We have only to add that his DISTINGUISHED
opinion with reference to disasters he predi cts
Tor Burnside's command on it's way to ioia
Hosecrans, is not believed here, where BIS
situation is far better known and understood
fnan ~ him. Ao hoe q routo open him Oh
winch, we take it, he cannot be attacked with
the slightest prospect OF success.

ADVANCE OF THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.
We learn by dispatch to the New York
Tribune, dated at the headquarters OF the Army
OF the Potomac on Tuesday night, that the
advance of the army during Monday and Tues.
day was nearly upon the same line as that of
General Pope last year. General Buford, with
his own division of cavalry and that OF General
Kilpatricks, occupied Madison Court House
on Monday night
Gen. Fitzpatrick led the advance, and drove
The enemy through the streets, capturing nine
pickets and killing one. The village was found
10 be deserted by nearly all its male inhabitants
But few gray haired old men could be found
The force Ger. Fitzpatrick had compelled to
1all back precipitately to the south side OF the
R3pidan was found to he the old brigade of
Gen Toombs, now under the command of Col.
W. II. Lee.
The prisoners taken confirm the reports of
southern march of Gen Longstreet's corps, but
say that he will return in time for the appre-
hended blttle with Gen. Meade. Our signal
corps occupy Thoroughfare Mountain The
rebels use Clark Mountain, seven miles to the
lett Tor lcok ont.
On Wednesday heavy cavalry reconnois-
sance was in progress, and it was expected
would discover the position and strength of
the rebel forces.

WHAT SEXPECTEOFRONI
TAG ATTACK UPON ROSECRANS.
MORE REEL "GEEAT EXPECTATIONSn
BLASTED.

We have the Richmond Dispatch of the 22d.
The Dispatch says editorially, in regard to the
situation in East Tennessee:
"Gen. Bragg seems to us to have grand
opportunity OF immortaliZing himself and doing
signal service to his country. He is said to
have force equal, If not superior, t. that of
Rosecrans, and the operations in which he is
engaged, if successful, will have more i'm
portant bearing upon the issue of the war than
any that have yet been undertaken.
at Gen. Bragg should destroy the army of
Rosecrans-should either disperse it by great
battle, or hem it in and surround it-he will ct
once liberate Tennessee and Kentucky, and
thereby add 100000 fresh troops troops to the
banners of the Confederacy"

PRISONERS ARRIVED

This forenoon ITO rebel prisoners, taken re-
Gently south OF the Rapidan, reached here per
rail. Some were captured at Madison Court
House, but the majority at a point within
seven miles Of g ordsnsville, on the day before
yesterday. Four officers were among them.
The majority Of the privates are exceedingly
squaiid in appearance. Captain Todd win
doubtless consign them to the Old Capitol for
the time being, where they will have eyery
opportunity of cleansing from their persons
the accumulated dizziness Of months Of seem.
ing abstinence from soap and water.

PRISONERS OF WAR AND STATE

One hundred and four prisoners of war and
fifteen prisoners of state, sent in from the
Army OF the Potomac, reached this city abou,
noon to-day. BY order of Provost Marshal
Todd they were committed to the Old Capitol.
Among the prisoners Of war are the follow.
ing commissioned officers Col K. H. Lee.
inspector second army corps, army of Northern
Virginia; Capt. p. A. Tatum, I'd North Carolina
cavalry; Lient. ]. b. Moore, Moseby's men: Lit.
M. H. Norman, 2sth North Carolina regiment;
H. s. Bradley, assistant surgeon, Cobb's Lee
gion, and w. Il. Shields, assistant surgeon,
Thee prisoners were captured for the mos.
p.r, near Madison G. H., on the 22d instant:
some of them. however, were taken at Brents-
Vile, end others at Green Springs. They rep
resent various regiments, among them the 27th.
47th, 18th, 6lst and 5th Va. infantry; 18th, 9TH
and 18th Va. cavalry; 18th Ala infantry, 1st
and I'd S. q. cavalry, and Moseby's men.
In the list OF State prise nars we notice the
meme OF John E. Hudgins, who claims to be a
refugee from Richmond, but who is believed
to be q substitute deserter from our army. He
states that he came direct from Newbern, N c..
with a rebel wagon train to Gordonsvill that
he LETT Richmond on Saturday night, about
dark. in a hack, and rode eighteen miles to near
Hanover Courthouse without any pass, and
then walked from there to Sth Virginia ipfan
try, near Kelly's Ford, and arrived there two
hours before day. (Rather fast walking that
Rep.) He had on him q gold watch, S243 in
greonbacks, and S45 in Confederate scrip.
He is either q substitute deserter, q spy.
or possibly one Of the party of mechan-
les aud others who captured the U. s. gunboats
at the mouth of the Rappahannock sometime
since, and the watch and u. S. currency NAV
be part of the spoils.

~ moving upon GoraoRsviile, and it would
surprise no one here if battle were TO be
fought between him aud Lee before Sunday
Lee still commands the A my of Virginia but
his strength cannot be over 10000. The strength
