FREDERCKsBURG, June 18th, 1868.
Wednesday ike its predecessors passed off without
any of stirring interest body Of troops
sting OF about two regiments crossed the pontoon
bridge in the morning and returned the Stafford side
in the afternoon.
There was occasional skirmshag throughout the day,
heavy at int rivals. The enemys line Of skirmishers
were driven back in the afternoon and regiment was
sent to its support The enemys skiFmishers to
be in mortal terror Of shsrpshooters When they
would relieve their pickets those relieved would often
"skedadde" back TO the BERNARD House" as last as
their legs could carry thea. One of Perrys Florida
brigade lost ARM and the 4Sth Georgia several killed
aud wounded. The enemy lost sever picked of by our
marksmen
About o'clock yesterday morning, balloon ascended
opposite Banks Ford for the FIRST reconnaissance of
several days past As appeared well over the
trees one of our big guns opened on it and fired five
shots The balloon ineontnently descended to the
earth and has not ventured in Ugh, since.
The indications yesterday presented some appearance
Of an evacuation by the enemy. About 10 A W., two
trains of thirteen box and tWentynne fat cars left the
dc pot filed with armed men. At IL A. NJ, an immense
wagon train which occupied three four hours in pass
ing came from over the opposite heights andapparenty
went up the river. The cars were running back and
forth all day.
As on Wednesday tueIe Was Voutluueu sAlrnisuluS,
in which one or two Of our men were wounded, and
several Yankees killed aud wounded. The Yankee Off
Ger killed day or two since, was by shot from one Of
the 18th Mississippi
Il observed that the enemy had thrown up an adj
diioual line Of entertainments Wednesday night, and
that their line OF skrmishers had fallen considerably
blck
According to late Northern statements, the troops OPP
pOse compose Sedgwick's Army Corps, one division Of
which has probably crossed and that the movement is
a reconnaissance.
The Yankee battery on Rray'5 Hill fr two of is
heavy guns at Of batteries but the missiles fell
short. About p. NJ, eight shots from the splendid
battery of Captain W. B. Hunt were thrown at two
columns of infantry crossing, The other sing
the bridge Several apparently fell among the latter,
from the manner in which they scattered" All quiet
this morning. Y.

ANOTHER "CHANGE OF BASE'-THE YANKEES
DlSAPPEARING-ARTILLER DUEL, ETC
FREDERICEsBJBG, SUNDAY,


T first grey streak Of dawn this morning revealed
the tact thar the enemy this side of the river had
abandoned their intrenched position al the "Ber-
nard House, taken up their pontOons and returned to
the Stafford side. Throughout the night, which
dark and rainy lights could be seen extending from the
crossing the Bernard House" up to the railroad
depot.
At an early hour this morning two trains Sft-onc
with several box and Hat cars crowded with soldiers
even to the tender. A considerable number of tents
the opposite side have also Disappeared and where
ever these were may be the smoke OF fires. Two
guns still remain in position in the "Brays Hill" heavy
battery. There is also another battery in rear Of
"Bray's Il Il, ," which the enemy seem to be removing.
The covering of the depot appears to have been re-
moved and there signs of fire at that point The
enemys piekets sill remain the river bank. All this
may be another Yankee trick, and whether the enemy
have only returned to the other side or changing
their base" another day will probably develop The
general appearance of things this morning, however,
indicates the latter.
We took twenty prisoners last night, who will 60
down the train to-day.
About g. p. M, yesterday, beautiful tillery duel
occurred between the batteries Brays Hill and
oil ours Y.
