WASHINGTON, Nov. lit has been
positively ascertained that the whole
Rebel infantry force crossed the Rapidan
Sunday last. The only forces left on
this side are accommodating bands OF
Stuart's cavalry, covering the rebel flank
on the south side of the Rapidan, which
they are fortifying with care. 1t was
the intention of the Rebels to rendezvous
between the Rappahannock and the Rap
idan this winter, which is established
by the fact that from Brandy Station to
the Rapidan log huts capable of accom-
modating $4,000 men had been erected.
Our advance of Saturday effected one
of its objects, in the preservation of "a
the the, Rappahannock and the Ran;dan
are in perfaatz Aso .e q y.
will be done next Monday.
Lees army at Gordonsville, exclusive
of cavalry, does not much exceed 80, 900
men.
Our cavalry is in force and already far
south of the Rapidan, accommodating the
enemys position. Two divisions of cav
airy from Lees army were recently sent
to East Tennessee.
Guerrillas swarm about our camps.
To go beyond our pickets is death, as we
daily lose officers, men and mules.
Within month, about 70 wagons, 500
mules, and 100 commissioned officers
and men have been captured.
The forces sent to operate against
Burnside in Tennessee, have been re-
called, and will form a junction with the
main army at Sharpsville or Gordons.
vile. This will depend entirely upon
the rapidity of Meade's movements.
A dispatch from the Army of the Po-
tomac, dated the 18th, says. l under
stand that Gen. Meade, having driven
the enemy to the south side of the Rapi-
dan, has accomplished his mission, but
will be ready to move still further as soon
as the railroad will make his base of sup
plies within reaching distance.
Perfect quiet reigns throughout the
camps, except wall for suffers stores
and more blankets. @
A ridiculous rumor is in circulation
to-day that 500 soldiers in Lees army
had voluntarily come into our lines, laid
down their arms, and given themselves
up. Military authorities pronounce it
utterly without foundation.
To-day a number of paymasters started
for the front, to pay off the troops. The
Army of the Potomac will all be paid
within few days.

IA Our telegraph news for the past
week clearly indicates, what we predict
ed four weeks ago, that the rebels are
straining every nerve to crush or drive
Burnside out :.of East Tennessee. The
attack on Rogersville looks to us very
much as though the rebels were aiming at
Cumberland Gap with the intention of
destroying Burnside's only channel for
supplies The movement we regard as
a dangerous one. Gen. Burnside, of
course, is fully aware of the danger of
his position, and will do all that brave
and prudent commander can do to
thwart their intentions. Nor can we
think that Gen Grant will lie idle while
the rebels thus threaten his TANKS.
We look for warm work in Tennessee in
a few days.

By this it will be seen that the quotas
assigned the different country townships
will not be very large and can easily be
raised, if an effort is made. There are
more boys in each township, who can
leave home, without causing any very
great::sacrifce, than is wanted for their
respective quotas. tits not necessary that
men of families should abandon their
wives and little ones, if the slumbering
patriotism of the boys in the different
neighborhoods can be aroused. That is
why we want Township Committees
why we urge ladies to aid in the good
work. We do not urge men to abandon
helpless families. We have no heart to
do so. But we do urge young men, who
have no families depending upon them,
to step forth and voluntarily prefer their
assistance towards filling up the army
and securing the fruits of the victories
already won by their noble brothers in
the field, who have borne the heat and
burden of the day.
1t requires no far-reaching sagacity to
see that unless the Union arms meet
with some misfortune, through the care
-lessness or ignorance of incompetent
commanders, the war cannot possibly
last longer than another summer. The
rebels must drive back our armies from
their present position, or their cause is
hopelessly lost This affords the BOYS an
excellent opportunity to come in at the
Crisis OF the struggle and reap the vic
tors reward. The Reserves in all great
battles gain an undue share of the ap-
Plause of the multitude by being hurled
upon the enemy in the crisis of the bat
tie, when he can not withstand fresh
troops. Napoleon's old guard gained its
reputation as much by the favorable cir
eumstances under which i. always
marched into battle, as by any natural
or acquired superiority it possessed over
other corps of his army. So will it be
with the ievies now being recruited.
They will have the satisfaction of giving
the rebellion its finishing blows, and then |
coming home to be hailed BY the people
as the victorious saviours of the gov-
eminent. Is there young man with |
soul so dead, as not to have desire to
participate in such triumph?
