Adviccs from tho Army ot the Potomac, re
celved last night state it has now i:een aSccr-
talned that none Of the Confederate Infantry
were engaged with Fitzpatrick cavalry near
Buckland Mills on Monday A brigade Of
Confederate sharpshooters, dlsmoUnted and
partially concealed, deluded the Federal caval-
~ into the belief that the were attacked by IN
tantry. Lees army, with the exception Of
Stuart cavalry, crossed the Kappahannock
on Monday, at Rappahantock St4tlon.--
Stuart tell back on the river Tuesday, not
stopping IN Warrenton. Officers OF Gen. Lee
army stated that their retreat was caused by
Il destitution Of provisions, Their bridge over
the Rapidan had been carried away by the
Use caused by the storm OF Thursday night,
and Lee laid pontoC n BRIDGE over which he
crossed his army TO the south side OF that NV
er, 1t l. believed no considerable Confederate
force is now north ot the Rapldan, unless it be
a portion OF Stuart cavalry with his artillery.
1t was currently stated by Confederate officers
that, having driven Meade back towards Wash
ington and having destroyed "a portion Of the
Orange and Alexandria railroad, either Hills
or Ewell 5 corps would now be Immediately dis
patched to the assistance Of Bragg. This is
streng hened by previous reports that one OF
these corps was about to start before the late
movement began Confederate papers say Lee
ca ptured ten thousand Federal troops, tuil
battery, and a large number wagons, during
his late campaign Official reports contradict
this statement. a few prisoners excepted. The

The revival Of speculation in stocks, which we
noticed yesterday was continued to-day. and the
indications OF 9 further period Of activity were
pretty well marked. The volume Of business
among the commission houses is increasing. The
more wary among the bears are closing their con-
tracts. If the indications should remain the
same for another day or two, it may be ex.
pectcd that the immense throng Of operators who
made money last fall and at New Year will

the closing quotations.

While Congress is puzzlng itself over law to
drive in bank circulation, one Of those unerrng
laws of trade which are thought 30 little Of at
Washington is accomplishing the desired end with
silent but resistless force. II is law Of political
economy that the poorest kind Of currency always
drives out the better class. In obedience to this
law the greenbscks, which are merely unsecured
federal promises TO pay at some future time. are
driving out of circulation the secured bank notes
Of the Northern States, which are secured by de-
posits of undoubted property. City bank notes
have already ceased to circulate as money, and
are held at I04. State bank notes will follow
next, and the notes issued by New England, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio banks will take the
same course. Greenbacks will drive them all out Of
circulation. Mr.. Chase will thus have the curren-
cy Of the country where he wants it. Money will
mean greenbacks and nothing more. II the gov
eminent succeeds in its object, and preserves its
credit, money will be worth something. II other.
wise II will be worth less. Of course. But, IL
loans are ever to be negotiated, Mr.. Chase cannot
be too prompt in issuing his paper, with or with
out interest, to supply the coming demand for
currency.

also beyond the expectations of the pertor-
