New York, Sept l6.-The Times has
the following
General Pleasanton reached Rapidan
river at Raccoon Ford, after considerable
skirmishing between Culpepper and that
point Up to that time no rebel infantry
had been met with, though heavy force
of rebel cavalry had been driven back by
our forces. The fighting was going on
at Rapidan Ford yesterday. The enemy
was vigorously resisting all our attempts
to cross 1t is supposed that brigade
Of rebel infantry was at that point re-
sisting our advance.
Gen. Foster telegraphs from Fortress
Monroe that the main body of the rebel
army is at Richmond, where Lees head
quarters now are, and there is no force
/ of any consequence in Meade's front.
Gen. Pleasanton will probably ascer-
tain the exact position of the rebel army

A train of cars ran through to Culpep-
per from Washington, to-day, with sup
plies for our troops
A Washington special to the Times,
says latest dispatches from minister
Dayton convey explicit and unmistakable
assurances from the French Emperor, as
well as his minister of Foreign Affairs,
that France has no intention either to
recognize the Southern Confederacy while
its ability to maintain its independence is
seriously contested, nor to plant any colo

Their declarations are regarded as evi

ELEVEN MORE REGIMExrs-Goveruor
Morton has been authorized to raise
eleven new regiments in this State, and
to give bounty of $500 to raw recruits
and 800 to veterans.
This magnificent bounty, with the sure
prospect of liberal donation of land
when the war is over, will unquestiona-
bly, bill up the regiments in few weeks
The prospects of a speedy suppression
OF the rebellion was never so fair, and
these new regiments authorized will no
oOuOt have short term of service, and
the speedy organization of these regi-
ments will have tendency to hasten
the end of the war.
