From the Army Of Northern Virginia.

Through private letters and persons arriv.
ing from Martinsburg and Winchester we
have interesting, though not late new from
General Lees army. On last Wednesday
the whole of our forces had crossed into Mary.
land, not at Leesburg as previously reported,
but at Williamsport and other fords in that
neighborhed. At that time we had made no
movement directly or indirectly on Harper's
Ferry, which was Still in the possession of
the enemy, who was strongly intrenched on
the Maryland heights.
For a week previous to crossing the Po-
tOmac our army was being fed exclusively on
United States provision-fresh beef from
Pennsylvania, and bread and other stores
left by Milroy's commissary.
Our forces occupy Greencastle and a num-
Der of other thriving towns in Pennsylvania,
from which we are daily sending back vast
! quantities of shoes and clothing.
Our cavalry have several times come upon
large masses of Pennsylvania militia, mount
ed on connestogas, who, upon all occasions,
take to their heels before our men can get .
shot at them. We have no confirmation of
the rumored capture of Harrisburg and the
destruction of public buildings there.
Hooker it is said have crossed the Poto-
mac at LeeSburg shortly after General Lee
crossed at Williamsport.
A gentleman who arrived here yesterday
from the neighborhood ofsAldie, states tina,
on last Thursday General Stuart attacked
the enemy's cavalry at THAI place and drove
! them towards CeRtreville.
: There Is a report, which comes by the
t.Orange and Alexandra railroad, that our
cavalry on Friday approached within nine
miles of Alexandria without meeting any en-

From Tennessee!

There was a sharp engagement between a
portion of the forces of Bragg and Rosen-
Grams on the Oath ult. We copy the follow
ing letter from the Appeal:
CHATTANOOGA, June Goth, 1s63.-It is
generally believed here that Rosencrans is
advancing to attack Bragg.
On "Wednesday Bates and Liddelrs bril-
gades were attacked at Hoovers and Liberty
gaps by seven brigades of the enemy. Our
men fought the enemy with desperate valo-,
until their ammunition supplies were ex-
hausted, and were compelled to fall back
Ben: Bates was holding Hoover's gap and
Liddell was defending the Liberty gap. Ma
ny valuable officers were lost in Liddelfs
brigade. In Bates brigade I learn that Ma
j0r Fred. Claybrooke, Of the goth Tennessee
regiment, was killed. As yet have receiv-
ed no particulars, nor a list of the casualties.
1t is reported by passengers from Tunaboma'
that the loss in Liddelrs brigade will not ex-
' coed seventy-tive or one hundred men. The
loss IN Bates brigade is. not known.
