NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-The Herald prints
| an intercepted letter of rebel cDmmissary
general to the rebel secretary of war, in which
he lntlmates the prospect of famine, c0nse-
sequent upon the refusal of rebel planters to
grow corn, &C.. and urges the adoption of
the plan, proposed by General Bragg, to
seize all the plantations and plant wheat,
corn, &c.
The Tribune and Times of this morning
print full lists of the Union prisoners now
at Richmond. A returned prisoner, in COM
munlcation to the Times, details an account
OF the horrible sufferngs of our boys there
| consequent upon the barbarities of the rebel
| officers and the soldiers in charge, and he
strongly urges retaliation to prevent further
cruelties.

Gen. Foster is to relieve Gen. Shenck, who

els into East Tennessee valley have been

as far as London, the point where Burnside's

New YORK, Nov. 6.-The Tribunes army
OF the Potomac dispatch of the 9TH SAYS one
full corps of Lees army is reported this
evening to be encamped at Brandy Station,
on the Orange and Alexandria railroad.
StuartS cavalry watch the fords on the south
side of the Rappahannock. Lees headquar-
tiers are at Culpepper. Deserters report that
his army stretches from Culpepper to the
right of Fredericksburg, and numbers about
30, 900 men of all arms.
The Tribunes dispatch from the army of
the Potomoc, dated 4th, says the old line of
the Rappahannock from Amesville on the
right, to Kelly's Ford on the left, is occupied
by Gen. Fessenden, whose division generals
are impatient at being held so tightly in the
leash, and are anxious to dash over the ford
and re-enact those gallant deeds at Brandy
station. From indications, however, which
seldom tail, it is whispered this evening that
this proposed inactivity will be of but shert
continuance. Before this reaches you, in all
probability, both cavalry and infantry will be
again in motion, and not in the direction of
the defences Of Washington.
Quite an extensive conspiracy has been dis
covered by Provost Marshal Gen. Patrick to
smuggle contraband goods through the lines
Eight or nine suffers are said to be implicated
In the affair, and, as punishment, are to be
set at work upon some government fortlfica-

CITY AND COUNTY.

MInsIGur INCIDENT Last Thursday
evening. about II o'clock, Mr. s., worthy
citizen of New Worcester, was aroused from
his slumbers by the ringing of his door bell
Politely informing his visitor, from the VIM
dow that he would at once make suitable pre-
paraions to attend his summons, he soon
found himself at his outer door, all in readi-
ness to receive his nocturnal caller; but no
visitor was visible. Closing the door, he was
returning to his room, when he again heard
the ring of the bell. Again he went to the
door but no one was to be seen. As he re-
traced his steps once more, SO once more the
sound of that incomprehensible, mysterious
door-bell fell upon his ear. Nothing was to
be seen; he called, but no reply fell upon his
listening ear. At last, glancing his eye up to
the bell-wire, he discovered the cause of the
strange performance, in the form of huge
rat, which, cntangled in the wire, had in each
instance, when the light of the lamp fell upon
him, made vigorous efforts to free himself
from his awkward situation, thus causing the
bell 60 ring. Whether the midnight intruder
was allow ed to retain his exalted position till
morning, or was at once shown to the door,
we know not. 1t is doubtful if he will soon
''call again."
