From the Army Of the Potomac

WASHINGTON, November lion Sunday
morning the cavalry division of Gen. Kill
patrick, under command Of Gen. Bustead,
made reconnaissance along the RapidAn
to Raccoon Ford, to ascertain the truth or
faIsity of the report that the rebels were
falling back on GordOnsVille. When our
cavalry approached they were met By few
guns from the rebel entertainments, but our
guns soon siIenced them. a small numb-r
Of rebel shRrpshooters were seen in the
lower rife pits, and soon Afterwards small
body was discovered.
The river vas too much swollen by the
storm on Saturday night to justify crossing
and so the cavalry returned.
The report on Thursday that a rebel
force bad crossed the Rappahannock aud
attacked Kilpatrick's forces is untrue.
Several English officers are visiting Gen.
Meade's Headquarters.
Information through reliable channel
from Washington, is TO The effect that two
of the divisions of Gen. Hills rebel troops
have left the Rapidau aud gone southwark,
but whether to Tennessee or Fredericks-
burg, or to demonstrate on the left flank
of the Army OF the Potomac, does not ap-
pear.

Lookout battery has been quite vigor.
ously worked to-day, alternately on Hook
er's camps, Moccasin Point and ChattauoO-
GO camps. Shells are occasionally thrown
into the town, but tue PIuuging DIRE is
neither accurate nor effective. No casual.
ties reported here.
Our MOccasln batteries have n splendid
range on the camps in the Chattanooga
valley, on the east side of Lookout.
The indications were that battle would
be made on HoOker's position by large
force Of rebels ere long, but its strength
and advantageous position, together with
the CO. operation of other forces, has leo
to the abandonment of the scheme.
Scouts say the Atlanta road Is worked
to its full capacity in bringing reinforce
meuts to Bragg. The read from Chatta-
nooga Station miles south is lined with
rebel camps.
The campaign will not be closed without

Intelligence from East Tennessee to the
