FROM FORTRESS MONROE.

LsCape o1 S1Xty Oon1ederate OfflCerS.
FORTRESS MONROE, June I2-On Wednes
day the steamer Maple Leaf Captain William
II. Deal, left Fo' tress Monroe for Fort Della
ware, for the purpose OF conveying ninety reb-
el commissioned officers to that post. These
men were nearly all from the extreme
Southern States, seemingly we'll educated,
to the statement of the officers OF the Mamie
Leaf, had plenty of money about them.
The guard on board consisted Of twelve men,
who with the Captain and crew, were sur
prised, Just as the steamer was rounding the
lighthouse off Cape Henry. 1t seems that the
prisoners perceiying the guard could be easily
captured, divided themselves into squads OF
four each, and gradually advancing towards
tn, m, soon compelled them to surrender, as any
attempt to resist, under the circums stan ces
would have been futile.
The Captain, crew and guard were confined
in such parts OF the boat us prevented them
from seeing the direction of the steamer, whilst
III the meantime, the rebel officers took charge
of her and managed the plotting themselves
After running for about forty n We miles beyond
the Capes they stopped, and lowering the yawl
boats very soon succeeded in effecting land
ing on the southern Virginia shore During
the trip they treated their prisoners IN a civil
manner, and assured the Captain thar tney
would not inlure the boat. OF the officers
twenty six refused to land, saying they prefer
red 10 return to Old Point and await the time
for their parole and exchange.
The boats were returned and the steamer nm.
der fuil head OF steam turned and made for the
Fortress. A report OF the affair was made 10
Gen. Dix and shortly afterwards a strong de-
1achment OF cavalry, commanded by Col. Pierce
was in pursuit OF the fleeing party.

INDICATIONS OF A MOVEMENT
A letter from Murfreesboro, dated the 5th
instant to the Philadelphia inquirer, says:
Parties from the South report that Gen.
Bragg's forces have been thrown forward to
msni Sns,Dy'aile' and that only two Or three regi
Hooker's Gap, and other points are believed
TO be occupied by him. Skirmis hing Continued
all day Yesterday between our yidettes and the
rebels, with few casualties. There are some
who imagine that Gen. Bragg is trying to con-
ceal his retreat by three different attempts at
olnerenf points TO drive in our pickets. Others,
again, suppose he is going to Nashville"
Gen. II. w. Johnson, commanding the sec
ond division, has just issued an order to his
men which seems TO hint at work at no distant
day. He says:
When you last met the enemy he was in
such overwhe lining force that you were COM
PEELED TO fall back under his murderous FIRE
1t is not at all likely that such will be the case
III your next meeting. Let each man in the di-
vision feel that the reputation of his company,
regiment, brigade and division rests upon him.
The memory of those brave spirits whose bones
are now bleaching On the bloody field of Stone
river should nerve every man to deeds of da.
ring Keep up your organization under all cir.
cums'ances; obey your officers; aim low and
deliberately"
