GEN. Fitzpatrick in the Rear Of Lee.


NEW YORK, March 2
The Posts dispatch says there are reports
from Virginia that a cavalry force under Gen.
Fitzpatrick has got into the rear of Lees army
and is making for Richmond Also that one
corps of the army is making diversion in
favor OF Fitzpatrick against the main body of
the rebels. Nothing authentic has yet been
received, but it is known that no battle had
occurred up to yesterday noon.
WASHINGTON. March 2.
Nothing is officially known of the where
about of Gen. Fitzpatrick. 1t is said in we'll
informed circles that he was at Spotsylvana
on Monday, which is sixty-fve miles from
Richmond.
An officer, who arrived here tonight from
the army of the Potomac, reports that when
last heard from Fitzpatrick was within eight
cen miles of Richmond. This may be mere
surmise, as there is no communication by
which such fact could known. Gen. Gus
tar's movements was to deceive or draw of
the attention of the rebels while Fitzpatrick
iourneyed in another direction. The suppo.
stion is that he has got fair start, with no
danger in his rear. He has certainly had time
to reach Richmond, if such was his plan Of
operations.

the Legislature this evening, the following
resolution was enthusiastically recommended
for adoption by the Legislature:
Resolced, That for their eminent services
to their country in the years of its greatest
peril, President Abraham Lincoln and Vice
President Hannibal Hamlin are deserving the
confidence and regard~of the American people,
and that, in the opinion of this Legislature,
the loyal citizens desire their election to the
offices which they now so ably and faithfully
fill.
The Convention also expressed the opinion
that the Maine State Convention should not
