WASHINGTON, Nov. %.
Adyices from the Army of the Potomac
tonight, say the heavy storm of Saturday
while doing no damage to the railroad, had the
effect of swelling the principal streams to an
almost impossible height, and the low grounds
and hollows, owing to the peculiarly soft and
spongy character of the soil, are full of sloughs
and cradle holes dangerous to wagon transpor-
tation. Deserters come into our lines almost
hourly.
The most intelligent and well informed gem
tlemen estimate Lees strength at from so 900
to 10000.
man OF high connection in a rebel State
says Lee is in hourly expectation of an attack
by Meade, and is prepared at every point to
give him terrible reception. The permanent
and temporary rebel works on the Rapidan
are being strengthened and enlarged to vast
extent.

o. The young folks had rich treat at the
City Hall last evening, and the older people
enjoyed it quite as well as they. Rev. Mr..
Smythe, in an able and eloquent manner, por-
trayed the evil of intemperance, a portion of
the time addressing himself particularly to the
children. But Mr.. Revell seemed especially
adapted in his remarks and singing, accom-
panied by music, to the younger portion of
that large audience. They enjoyed it wonder
fully and no doubt considered it as good as
play. Such meetings, in which the attention
of children Is called to the sufferings and mis-
cry caused by intemperance, and the impor
lance of declaring perpetual war against all
that can intoxicate, cannot fail to be benefci-
al. The pledge was presented, and we have
no doubt was numerously signed.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN.

Misunderstanding Hall was graced last
evening with large and fashionable audi
ence, at the opening Of the Combination Com
pany, selected by Mis-. Barrow and Mr. Mark
H. Smith. The comedy of "London Assur-
ance" was the play and we have no hesitation
in saying that, as a whole, it was better per-
formed than it has ever been before in this
city. Mrs. Barrow; Mr.. Mark Smith; Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Walcot, Jr.; glorious old
Tom Placide, Russell, Knight, Nolan, Sweet
ser, and Miss Lucette, in their various parts,
won the appreciation of the large audience.
This evening, Sheridan's beautiful comedy
of "The Rivals will be performed, with a
strong cast. Those who love to witness SUI
perior performances in the histrionic art,
must avail themselves of the present week; as
the engagements Of the company preclude
their remaining here after Friday.

The Capture OF The Steamer Baashee- From
Charleston.

New YORK, Nov. 23.
Steamer Fulton, from Port Royal 10th, ar
rived this afternoon. She has the rebel block
AIDE runner Banshee in tow, having captered
the latter on the 18th, after long chase and
firing many shots at her. The Baltimore dis
patch, relative to her capture, wrongly i'm
plies that the capture was participated in by
another vessel. The Banshee is an iron side
wheel steamer of 300 tons, and only one year
old, with cargo of coffee, tobacco, dry goods,
rope, &c.
BY the Fulton we learn that the sea wall
of Sumter has been entirely destroyed The
rebels were building a bomb proof in the
ruins. The bombardment still continues.
A Morris Island letter of the 10Th says,
nineteen shells were fired into Charleston on
the 18th, falling into the most populous part
OF the city. On Sunday night very heavy
fire was continuously poured into our bat
teries from the rebel works. Nothing new
from the fleet.
