From private letter written by a
gentleman occupying position in
Washington where he has every op
portunity of knowing all that can be
known there in reference ID military
matters, we extract the following:
Washington June II, 1868.
The character Of rebel raid into Penn
sylvania has been greatly magnified.
There are some 10000 rebels in the
Shenandoah valley. near Harper's Fer.
rey, but only 1000, mostly cavlry
have entered the State Of Pennsyl.
vania. At III p. NJ, last night, this
marauding band was one mile from
Shippensport, between Chambersburg
and Harrisburg. They were at Cham
bersburg on Sunday. and have had
ample time to reach Harrisburg, if
they designed doing so. The raid
was q ruse. Lee hoped to induce
Hooker to follow that rowing crew,
and then he (Lee) intended making
. dash upon Washington. This is be-
lieved to be his programme. A heavy
column of Hooker's army moved at
Am. where must not say--but ]
guess towards Maryland.
There is little excitment here, though
the military are active. Eleven reg.
iments left Hooker yesterday, their
time having expired. Yet there are a
good many troops in the vicinity OF
Washington.
A reconnaissance by our cavalry
dissolves the mystery of the location
of Lee and Ewell. From this source
it is also ascertained that Longstreet
was, on Wednesday. at Union, Loudon
county, in the Bull Run valley. Advi.
ces from below say that A. P. Hills
advance, consisting of Hampton's LIE
gion, was advancing towards Dumfries
and that one regiment had made its
appearance at Stafford Court House.
Combining these facts, intelligent
officers draw the conclusion that Lee
is advancing upon the Army Of the
Potomac in three columns his right
under Hill by way Of Acconyan and
Wolfe Run Schoals his center under
Eweli, by way of Thoroughfare Gap
and his left, under Longstreet, by
way of Leesburg. Such disposition
has been made of our army by Gen
Hooker that no surprise can possibly
take place. A few hours will prob
ably develope further movements ant
intentions on the part Of Lees forces
which are now said to be 90, 900 strong

Latest From Vicksburg.

Advices from Vicksburg are Of the
most cheering character. Our artil-
lery and mortars continue to play up
on the town. Three females, who
were put outside the city by General
Pe,nberton, assert that the garrison
is short of ammunition. Provisions
are scarce, and not to be bought at
any price. The garrison is subsist-
ing on quarter rations. mainly Oh corn
and peas. The women and children
seek shelter in caves from our shot
and shelf, which fall heavily on the
city. and consequently but few lives
are lost among them.
Official intelligence from General
Grants army to the 18th is received.
Everything is progressing satisfacto-
rily. and the downfall of Vicksburg
will certainly be accomplished in a
few days.
Johnston fears to approach Our
lines in the rear, or at least does not.
The defences there are growing in
strength every day, and it will require
an overwhelming force to rout our
victorious and determined army now
intrenched on the nights around Vicks.
