FROM THE RArPAHANNoCK.
Rebels Preparing for Movement on our
Right.
WESTERN VIRGINIA TO BE INVADED.
Cavalry Fight at Edwards Ferry.

New YORK, June IL.
The Heralds dispatch from the headquar-
tiers of the army, dated the 18th, says affairs
remain unchanged. The enemy has large
force in the vicinity of Fredericksburg but
make no demonstrations except picket firing
and occasional artillery shots. Longstreet's
and Elwelfs corps are near Culpepper, prepar-
ing for a movement on our right. Firing was
heard in the direction of United States Ford
that morning.
Another dispatch, dated third army corps,
June 18th, says the movements of Lee in the
direction of Culpepper have been on larger
scale than was at first supposed, embracing all
his army except about 10000, which remain
opposite Falmouth. No doubt Lee intends to
risk everything on a determined effort to cross
the Rappahannock and assume the offensive.
The Harper's Ferry correspondent of the
Herald states that it is reported by our caval-
ry that a rebel force of infantry and artillery
passed through Sherryville OH Tuesday last,
the column occupying three and one-half hours
in moving.
1t is thought the rebels intend moving into
Western Virginia. they will make a des-
tructive and bold raid, as we are not prepared
in that quarter.
On Thursday battalion of Vermont caval-
ry had a brisk fight withsthe rebel cavalry at
Edwards Ferry and drove them back across
the river, where they had heavy support.

Mr.. WARES LEcTURE.-Rev. j. F. W..
Ware, of Cambridge, ofiiciated at the vesper
service at the First Parish Church last even
ing The church was completely filed by
congregation who were much pleased with the
able, minute and interesting account of his
recent visit to the hospitals of the Mississippi.
His descriptions of the state of the Western
hospitals and the condition of the contrabands,
were vivid and edifying. We regret that our
limits forbid such report as we should like
to give of the address, which must be produc
tive Of much good wherever it may be deliver
ed. He felt hopeful about the issue of the
war, and declared that there is more patient,
unselfsh and ant-slavery feeling in Missouri
and Maryland than there is in New England,
singular as it may seem. He concluded by
declaring that there is but one hopeful and
truly loyal man in the country in regard to the
event of the war, and that man is the uncon-
ditionaity loyal man.

lures on Brazil, delivered in this city in 1857
by Rev. J. C. Fletcher, just after his return
the second time from South America. He
has just completed third missionary tour in
Brazil, and during his year of absence from
the United States, has visited the great ANA
zon Bason, looking upon its Towering forests,
its Victoria Reginas, and its bright birds. He
will this evening deliver lecture at the State

tiers OF great interest in connection with that
region, so wonderful in its nature, and will
give some information concerning the pro-
gress Of Brazil, which will command the at
tention of all. While there is no admission
fee, there will be a collection at the close of
the lecture.

Reply OF the President to Erastus Corn
ing and others.
WASHINGTON. June I3.

WASHINGTON, June Is.
The latest intelligence from the Rappahan-
mock is up to noon to-day. A letter sent by
Stuart in response to one from Gen. Pleasan-
ton, asking Tor a flag of truce in order to bury
our dead and provide for our wounded, says
in effect, that the dead have been buried and
the wounded well cared for, and that the pris-
oners have been sent to Richmond, but that
no registry Of their names was kept in camp.
He therefore declined flag of truce for any
such purposes.
WASHINGTON, June IA.
Upon receiving intelligence Of the piratical
transactions on the coast, the Navy Depart
ment promptly despatched vessels in pursuit
of the pirates. Four vessels left New York
Saturday night, three sailed from Hampton
Roads, and others were to follow on Sunday.
Lieut. Commander Morris, of U. S. gunboat
Port Royal, has forwarded to the Navy De-
partment report of Acting Master Van SEEK,
who commanded a boat expedition from that
vessel on the 23d ult., resulting in the capture
of sloop Fashion, having on board fifty bales
Sea Island cotton. This vessel was As miles
above the town of Alexandria, waiting an OPP
portunity to run the blockade. She was lying
at the time in the vicinity of the rebel en-
campment, but was captured without any re-
sistance
The President, under date of the 18th, has
replied to the letter OF Erastus Corning and
others, who were officers of the public meet
ings held at Albany 10th May, requesting his
earnest consideration of the resolutions passed
on that occasion. The resolutions, he says,
promise to support him in every constitutional
and lawful measure to suppress the rebellion.
He has not knowingly employed nor shall he
knowingly employ any other. Differing from
the meeting, that certain military arrests and
proceedings following them, for which he is
ultimately responsible, are unconstitutional,
he argues the question to show that the pro-
visions of the Constitution quoted have no APP
plcation to the case in hand because the ar
rests complained of were not made for trea-
son, that is, not for the treason defined in that
instrument, and upon the conviction of which
the punishment is death, nor yet were they
made to hold persons to answer for any capt.
tai or other infamous crimes, nor were the
proceedings following in any constitutional or
legal sense criminal prosecutions. The ar
rests, he shows, were made upon different
grounds, and the proceedings following the
arrests the President would be glad to correct
on reasonably satisfactory evidence.

Blockade of the Red and Black Rivers.
REBEL BARBARITIES AT ALEXAN.
DRIA.
UNIONISTs, WHITE AND BLACK, SHOT.
New YORK, June /

NEW YORK, June IA.
A letter from Red river says that portion
of our gunboats are blockading the mouths of
the Red and Black rivers, up which there is
known to be some twenty rebel steamers, but
few of them, however, are properly manned
or equipped.
Refugees from Alexandria say that since
Gen. Banks withdrawal, several parties of
blacks have escaped in canoes and flats and
come to our gunboats. They represent the
rebels as treating the negroes with horrible
barbarity, shooting them on the road and
dragging them with ropes tied to their horses
tails to Jail, which is so crowded with blacks
as to be unable to hold any more. Both whites
and blacks, who showed any favor to the
Union forces, have been arrested and several
shot. The flagstaff with the stars and stripes
has been cut down and burned.
The low stage OF the waters only prevented
our ganboats from going up to retaliate.
