NEW YoRK, NoY.,24,9-A special 10 1.-The
Times from Washington says: H.
The latestnews, up to 1910 this evening,
from Grant is most satisfactory. Generals
Thomas and Sherman have got well ahead
Fighting in our Immediate front has lasted
all day long. At every point along the
line We have forced the rebels back. >. .Iiss
We have news from the Army of the Po-
tomac up to PM Absent officers may
be interested to know that several changes
of position in the army corps has been
made.
Fredericksburg heights is occupied by
one division of Ewell's corps, which is. the
extreme right of the rebel army. Lees
left rests near Madison Court House, on this
side of the Rapidan. His force is mostly
cavalry. 10 HtJt
The rebel army seems to have no faith at
all that we will advance and fight before
May next, for it is manifestly preparing
winter quarters &C or near Gordonsville.-
At present it is stretched from that place
to some poi Mt on the Richmond and
Fredericksburg, probably Hanover juno
ton. TF..
A dispatch to the World, dated Head
quarters Army Potomac, Nov. oath, says:
No changes have yet been made. All
quiet along the Rapidau, and our brilliant
expectations of an advance, as yet, unreal
lied. 1t rained all day and this may have
delayed an advance. .-..
Army circles in town are somewhat agita-
ted over rumors concerning we'll known
commissary official. A court of inquiry
will probably be ordered, s.
The Tribune's Washington despatch of
the Oath says: The incorrect statements
put forth with regard to the estimates for
the fiscal year ending June Both, 1863 that
the aggregate will be 81, 200, 100000 is very
wide from the truth and fixing it at $500,
100000 is also too large. The heaviest
items in the estimates of the War and Navy
Departments are as follows. The former
foot up $545, 594, 6O2, and the latter about
$l40, 100000. If the estimates for other
departments are the same as last year the
aggregate will but little exceed 800, 100000.

WoRKINo-MEN are now busily engaged In
cleaning up the guns which were in the
hands of the militia during the raids into
Western Virginia. Never did we see a more
dilapidated stock of arms than those now
lying in the building on the corner Of GUM
cy and Market streets. IfMorgan had cap
tursd these guns we do not believe he
would have carried them away with him.
Sand paper and oil, however may make them
more valuable.

THE SoIREE.-It was our fortune to be in
attendance at the soiree at the Academy OF
Visitation last evening, To say we were
pleased with the entertainment, would con-
vey but faint idea of our thoughts. The
music was good, the reading was correct
loud and distinct. while the singing was
charming. The young ladies all acquitted
themselves in manner which must reflect
credit upon the institution.

The CAPITAL QUEsTIoN.--The question
OF the location of the Capital seems to be
still alive We were under the impression
that it vas played out" for the present.
But certain parties appear to be determined
to agitate tue matter, probably with the
vain hope that their coa"siss may be bene-
fitted thereby.
Yesterday morning q communicstionfro from
the Senate informed the House that a
committee was asked for, whose duty it
should be to 'examine locations suitable for
Permanent Capital of the State" The
cided to indefinitely postpone the matter.
TAis, every candid man must admit, is
sne true policy. Why sh ould this question
ps agitated now When the contending
armies shall have left our borders, and
peace is restored, when we know it will
be safe to locate the Capital in the centre of
Gbe State-then, and not till then, will it be
the part of wisdom to discuss the matter.
But while near one half Of the counties Of
the State are subject to, and partially under
the control of the Confederates; and liable
TO be overrun at any moment,-we must
say it is utter folly to argue the point. We
trust the move has received its death blow
at least for the present.

A correspondent Of the Atlanta, Geor
gia, Appeal writes from Chattanooga q
follows:
Strange movements are takhf place
within the enemy's lines, OF which the
saying is-we can mako neither head .,
tail. In Lookout Vslley they are un-
doubteiiy entrenching, and possibly
within ten days We shall have tho benefit
OF a lire from that direction. Troops are
moving backward and forward-some in
the direction Of Bridgeport. others to-
wards Browns Ferry and Raccoon Noun

and there, and various indications are
apparent which plainly say either that an
offensive demonstration of the enemy i,
at hand. or that they are preparing for
permanent occupation Of the place they
hold.
Speculation under the circumstance, il
"cold victuals' to tn. truth, and quite
as unsatisfactory. The lateness of the
season assures us, however, that wha ever
the enemy attempts must be done quick
