REPORTS FROM OUR ARMY IN THE NORTH
Intelligence received from Northern Virginia,
on yesterday represents that another ser ,ss cav
! / airy f zht mad occurred st Aldie- between Gen.
Stuaris command and the enemy under Pleas
anton. The fight took place on Thursday last,
and the onomy were completely routed, and
driven cut Of Aldie and pursued for some miles
beyond.
Rumor says that our cavalry dashed into the
very stTeats Of Warsut0n after this fight and
did net find a man to oppose them. Another re-
port says that our csfaiTy went WlthIn twelve
miles Of A'ezanaris and returned, finding no
enemy The conjecture Was that HsokeI's en-
tire army had been withdrawn 10 the North side
Of tie Potomac, to operate Immediately against
Gen Lee.
Gentlemen from the rear Of our army in thss
quarter stats that the main army, un Ter Lee, is
now certainly in Maryland and Pennsylv aaia,
the last division having crossed the Potomac on
Thursday last.
Thsy stste that the army is aow well supplied
with everything, through al admirable arrange
msnt made by Gen. Lee with the farmers and
merchants of the two bsrdsr States-that of
selling at prices standing before the invasion,
and receiving Confederate money or certificates
upon the same footing as Yankee greeHbacks.
La General Jenkins first raid into PennsYi-
brought out eleven hundred horses ana q drove
Of cattle and sheep that extended for four miles.
! Ou his second raid, down ia the region of
Gettysburg, he succeeded in getting out thirteen
/ hundred horses, and a large drove OF cattle.
These prizes are now grazing in the rich pas
lures Of the lower valley.
Some humorous stories are told of our men,
upon OCCASIONS of purchase making, when in q
village or town Jger the border. The gist of
thsss stories, ID, that tha soldier is amszsd at
getting SO much for so little. Confederate cur
rsncy being, as ab6ve Indicated the established
currency within cur lines.
