A hard answer rose to Isabcrs lips, but
below all anger and impatience against the
headstrong younger brother lay still a sub
stratum of pity for him.
"A foolish fellow, George Redfern, who
distrusts his friends and nurses an absurd
antagouism against those who are anxious
only for his welfare"
George Redfern leaned forward little
with his two hands clasped before her, and
the gloom of his face changed and soitened
into an eager tenderness.

ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.
The Expedition to Hatcher's Run-Re-
pOrIed Victory by Warren.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoToMAC,
Dec. l0.-The denomination made yester-
day towards Hatcher's Run by division of
the I'd corps cavalry did not result in bring
ing on an engagement, with the exception
Of skirmish at the crossing on the Vaughn
road and another in the morning near the
Armstrong House. No fighting of conse-
quence took place, the rebels falling back
as our troops advanced. The object of the
move was merely to keep them from send
ing force to intercept Warren, and it is
believed to have been successful. Our loss
in the affair amounted to about 125 killed
and wounded.
At two o'clock this morning the COM
mand was ordered to return, and tonight
the troops were back in their old camp.
Nothing positive has been heard from
Gen. Warren. Rumor has it that he has
had fight at Jarretts' station on the Well
don railroad, in which he gained a victory
and was pursuing the enemy.
The troops suffered much last night from
the change Of weather. Yesterday after
noon severe storm of hail and snow set in,
freezing keenly. This morning the entire
country was covered with sheet of ice,
tonight it is raining, the roads are in a
very bad condition.
1t is believed that Warren will have no
difficulty in reaching his destination, not
withstanding the weather.

THE CITY.

ARRESTED AND SENT TO THE 'FRONT.'
The following particulars in regard to q
late military arrest were related to us yester-
day. Our informant derived his informa-
tion from the father OF the person arrested
John Smothers, cooper by trade, and a
resident of Harlem township, Delaware
county, went to Camp Dennison in 1861,
and proposed to enlist in certain company
of the Third Regiment of Ohio Volunteer
Infantry, provided he should be paid one
hundred dollars for his enlistment. The
Captain of the company told him If he was
going to enlist for hundred dollars, he did
net want any such man in his company,
and bid him go homo. Smothers accord
ingly returned home without being enlisted
or sworn In.
From that time until some ten days or
two weeks ago, when he was arrested, he
remained at home without molestation, and
without either volunteering or being draft
ed. In making the arrest two men came to
Smothers' house, and broke in window.
BY the window in the room was lounge
on which sister of Smothers was lying,
One of the men, as they broke open the
window, fired of pistol, and the ball pass
ed through the lounge into the floor. Smoth-
ers was arrested, taken to Tod Barracks,
and last Thursday was sent to the front as
q deserter from the 33d owl.

Mrs. WALLER AS Meg MERRILIEs.-Em
ma Waller appears tonight at the Opera
House as Meg Merrilies, in the play of Guy
Mannering, dramatized from Sir Walter
SCOTS famous novel of that name. BY
universal consent Mrs. Waller stands at the
head of all artists of the present day in her
representation of the strange, mysterious
gypsy woman that plays SO conspicuous a
part in the plot of Guy Mannering. 1t is a
difficult part, and few have been found
equal to the task of its vivid and lite-like
representation.
But Mrs. Waller succeeds in presenting
the character in its most mysterious and
revolving aspects, with such fidelity to truth
and nature, that every. one at once recog-
nizes her personation as true to the life, and
is fascinated as though the veritable Meg
Merriies of Guy Mannering had thrown
over him witching spell. Those who
would see one of the finest delineations of
character the modern stage affords, should
visit the Opera House tonight, and witness
Mrs. Wallers unrivalled rendering of Meg
Merrilies.

Rebel Accounts from the Potomnc.

New York, Dec. 12.-The Strasburg EX-
press of the Sth says of Warren's expedi-
tion: The expedition of the enemy was
reported at Proctor's some twenty miles
distant south, and still in motion. Elated
by the success OF the raid on Stony Creek,
Grant has probably started out large and
better equipped body of troops on asimilar
expedition farther down the Weldon rail-
road. That it is raiding party we have
little doubt, but its destination is unknown,
save, probably, at headquarters. This col
umn is said to embrace large force of in
fantry, with plenty of artillery, but only a
small force OF cavalry. If such is the case
we can't think the expedition is destined
against any distant point, as to venture far
into the interior with infantry almost alone
would render it an exceedingly dangerous
and hazardous one.
The Richmond Dispatch of the 9th says:
The latest information from the enemy on
the Weldon railroad is that they were all
moving towards WordOn, and were pro-
vided with such an amount of stores as to
induce the belief that they were provided
for long march, or at all events for long
absence. 1t is useless to speculate on their
plans, which will be fully known in day
or two. 1t is probable that the primary OBJ
ject of the movement was to occupy the
road and so injure 1t as to prevent our send
ing any reinforcements to our forces oper-
ating against Sherman,
