heights soon silenced them. They did
not make second attempt of this
nature.
The President and Gen. Halleck
went down on Wednesday evening on

they took the ears for Falmouth. They
met with the most enthusiastic reception
from the whole army. The party Wis

AT the time of our crossing the Rap

who stated that she had been in the
rebel lines. The rebels had the flower
of their army at Fredericksburg, and
everything to enable them to make a
march or endure fatigue was sent them.
The best troops the rebels could master
were in Hooker's front, and the i'm

authority that the rebels captured in

"The events of the last week may
swell with pride the heart of every Off

made long marches, crossed rivers, sur

inflicted heavier blows than we have
received.
We have taken from the enemy five

captured, and brought off seven pieces

Richmond Not Captured.

ms village was thrown into q fer
ment of excitement on Sunday last, by
the report, telegraphed from Philadel-
phia, that our forces from Fortress
Monroe and Suffolk had captured Rich
mond. The news came in such a
plausible form that the people generally
were disposed to credit it. Late re-
ports, however, while they do not con-
firm the previous ones do not entirely
dissipate them. They corroborate the
fact that there has been a movement
from the eastward toward Richmond,
but that the rebels on the Rappahan-
mock rushed to the rescue of their cap
ital, and got there just in time to save
it, and also that Hooker's army certain
ly has again crossed the Rappahannock,
but found that the rebel army had made
good its escape. Richmond is evident
ly not yet ours, but taking all things
into consideration we are prepared to
hear of its capture before the end of
the week.
P. S.-Since the above was in type,
news has been received denying that
Gen. Hooker has re-crossed the Kappa
hammock, and also denying the previ-
Gus reports of Lees going to Richmond.
Hooker it is now confidently reported,
is still at Falmouth; and the enemy is
still in force on his front. The news
is very badly mixed" We give it
as We getit. If our readers can make
anything out of it as it now stands they
can do more than we can. The follow

Neither the President nor Secretary
Stanton has received any such intelli-
gence. IF any movement like the
above has taken place, they are not
aware of it.
