WASHINGTON, August lS.-The Her.
AIDS special says last week one of our
scouts crossed the river at u. S. Ford
and took dinner with some rebels on the
Charlottesville battle ground. A large
gang OF negroes were employed in get
ting out timber for the construction of
bridges. Reports in circulation among
the rebels were to the effect that the u,
5. Ford and Banks Ford were to be
brldged so as to enable Lee to make
rapid advance on Dumfries and Fairfax.
thereby cutting off communication with
Washington and forcing us to attack
him. Whether such movement is still
contemplated by the enemy, remains to
be seer; but 1t is generally believed in
military circles that Lee will avail him
self OF the opportunity now offered by the
declmated condition of our army, to
make desperate effort for the destruc-
ton of the Army of the Potomac.
1t IS not at all improbable that the
rebels will attack us, and we may vet
have the annual struggle upon the plains
OF Manassas and Bulls Run.

FLAG SHIP DINsMnRE

l LAT 9HIP sDIINfS99tnqRlHfr ou.
Since Monday events here have been
rather monotonous.
We have been exchanging shot and
shell with the rebels night and day-prob-
ably with but little success to either
side.
The enemY's object was. to -~.--a
Gen. Gillmore's siege works, but they
have all been perfected for several days.
The intention to open on the 18th was
abandoned on account of some difficulty
as to the quality of the ammunition, and
owing to serious indisposition of Gen.
Gilmore. He is, however, better, and
the opening of the heavy siege works
will commence at daylight tomorrow.
The shore battery, in getting the range
of the guns yesterday and day before,
knocked three holes in the walls of Sum-
ter.
The impression prevails generally
that the rebels are evacuating Sumter,
and will blow it up as soon as the assault
commences. Out of nearly 80 guns on
the parapets ten days ago, but six now
remain, and most of those in the case
ments had previously disappeared.
The rebels have erected line of
earth works mile long on James Island
from Fort johnson to SecesSionville;
and though they have but few guns
mounted, yet this is supposed to be the
destination of Sumter's guns. Our picket
boats around Sumter reported great &C
tivity every night with schooners, steam
ers, &c.
Weather fine and very calm and most
favorable for operations, The sun is
hot, but there is a good sea breeze with
occasional thunder showers.
Everything is now in readiness on the
sea shore, and all are looking forward to
tomorrow with the certainty of success
Requirements continue to arrive
daily, and quite a large army is now Oh
the island.
On Wednesday night the rebels free
on our works grape and canister, ON &C
count of information received from two
suffers who deserted to the enemy. We
lost . killed and % wounded. The moni
tors went up in the night and opened
on Wagner, and the rebel guns were soor
silenced. The Admiral went on boart
the Patapsco, joining her under the gun
of Wagner, and came near being take
off by ten-inch shot.
The indications are the rebels will de
pend principally upon distractions an
the interior line of defences.
In the attack tomorrow the Ironside
will engage Wagner and keep her silen
whilst the monitors and shore battere
engage Sumter. The wooden feet an
morter schooners will engage Moultri
1t will be grand affair The rebel worl
on James Island indicate an attempt G
the part of the rebels to drive Gilmol
off James Island, or to so annoy him 1
to interfere with his siege of Sumter.
