From the Army of the Potomac.
W ashington, July 81

Washington, July 81.
Information received to-day from the
Army Of the Potorac states thai Lee mass
ed his forces at Culpepper on Wednesday,
and made other preparations to give us
battle on the Rappahannock. His first al
vance south of Culpepper was to foil us in
taking the Fredericksburg, route, but, find
ing we did not advance, he concentrated
b, army at Culpepper.
The Rappahanuock is guarded from
Fredericksburg to tue Rapidan bv only
one rebel regiment. The Rapidan is forti-
fed south of CulpePper.
Washington, July 81.
Special to Post says: Information from
the front to-day is to the effect that Gen
Lee is moving nearer TO the South Branch
of the Rappahannock.
The Republican says General Meade is
close at hand, and adds: From present
appearances it will not he an easv matter
for Lee to return to Fredericks burg, sho'
he desire 10. All the wounded and sick
from Meade's army have arrived here.
New York, July 81
The Express says: We have seen to-
Gay officers from Gen. Grants army who
left Nlcksburg about Ten days ago. Note,
of preparation for a march to Mobile were
then heard. The troops were in good spir
its, and confident Of success. The car,,-
la,ion was that the stars and stripes would
float over Mobile by the 15,h of August
New York, August l.
From the Herald t is stated that the
force OF employees, at Aqua Creek when
Gen. Lee advanced northward, have been
ordered to return there on Monday. -
There were at tie time Of the la, evacua-
ton of the point over twenty immense
storehouses there, which have since been
DESTROYED.
The Heralfs Washington dispatch says
that there is no Union force stationed i'm.
mediately at Fairfax Court House. TIE
Orange 4 Alexandria railroad is in direct
line of communication with the army in
It's present position.
Military authorities are guarding the
turnpike road between Alexandria and
Centreville. Gurrilas under Mosbv, cor
posed principally of residents of Fairfax
Court House, take advantage Of this fac,
to make their raids upon unarmed passors
at points where no military force is sta
| toned.
~, ~. New York, Aug. >.
The Times Washington dispatch give,
the following:
The statement that Lees forces are mass
ed at CuIpepper is not credited in military
circles here. There is no doubt he has :
strong rear guard at that point, but III,
man body of his army is thought to be or
The south bank of the Rapidan.
The public will no, be surprised to learr
that Meades army is about to make al
important movement. Just what it is ,c
be, of course, it would not be pruden, ,e
state, c"' Ct one thing is certain, rations fol
long march have zen issued.
