~We notice the Richmond papers
are spreading themselves on the raid of
their troops towards Washington. They
speak of two or three corps Of their army
already on the way, and of several others
soon to follow, under the command of
General Lee. In the meantime it Is re-
presented that Beauregsrd is to be left in
charge of the defences of Richmond. Tb;.

and the fact that they give full particu.
