Correspondence New York Herald.
GEN. BUFFERS HEADQUARTERS, Aug. %, 7
that the number of rebel troops opposed to us
in the late operations at and in front of Deep
Bottom, on the north bank of the James river,
amounted to $4,000 men. They were made up
of Major Gen. Fields division, consisting of
five brigades; Major Gen. Mahone's division,
three brigades OF Wncox's division, one brigade
OF Bushrod Johnson's division, Wade Hamp-
toms cavalry, and few reserved militia de-
Tending Chapln's Bluff.
1t is not improper to state that it has finally
been determined that the forces lately oper-
ating at Deep Bottom can, in the new phase of
military affairs that has precipitated itself in
cident to our holding the Weldon railroad, be
Of more service to the cause elsewhere. Con.
sequently they were Withdrawn on the night
of the Goth inst, and new dispositions made of
them to suit new and important complications,
which will be made apparent in good time.

cotton are pressing its advantages over gun
powder very actively. Its weight is only one

AFFAIRS INGEORGRTowN.-Clo Closing Rancho.
This morning, VIM. Fowler, the proprietor of
well known rancho, was arrested by the MIL
itary and was taken before Justice Buckley, by
order OF Major Littler, to be tried for selling
liquor to soldiers. Major Littler himself pros
ecuted the case, and the proof being positive,
the justice ordered Fowler to pay S21.22 fine
and costs. Fowler paid cheerfuliy, and was
about leaving the Office with the remark, 81 be-
lieve I'll 60 and take drink, when Maj Littler
remarked. "Youu take drink at Forrest Hall, u

who carried him to the prison. Fowler's
The charges against him are selling liquor to
soldiers, and selling citizens clothing to sol.
diers. The police, who are much gratif1ed with
this disposition ofithe case, gave the rancho an
awful name. A soldier named Kelly, wit
ness against Fowler, declares that he was
robbed of 1928 in. that house. The ran che will
hardly be opened by Fowler while Major
Littler is provost marshal Of GEORGETOWN.
A Deserter from, Mosbys Nen.-This morning,
patrolman Drill arrested man named William
Boyle, who was lettering about the boats in
the canal. Boyle claimed to be deserter from
Mosby, and says he has been with him two
years. He deserted few weeks ago, and has
been until within few days hiding IN the
woods. His story is plausible but it is sus.
pected that he is bounty jumper. He was

No further particulars OF the raid of Mosby
on AnnandaIe yesterday had been received up
to noon today, save that we had one sergeant
of the 10th New York cavalry and two men
captured. The demand for surrender was
made three times by Mosby, each demand being
preceded by shots from his artillery. The de-
mand was obstinately refused, and finally the
rebs were for ced to retire.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. are circulating in
Alexandra and beyond the limits for sigma

asking for the substitution OF the military for
the civil power, as at Norfolk. Should the
prayer be granted, Governor Pierpont will, as
consequence, be superseded IN his functions,

sides abolished.
The Alexandria Journal, the official paper;
strongly Condemns the movement, and says
that some OF the petitioners are men of no
standing, while others are squatters and known
disloyalists.
The Journal says

squatters, and will leave our city and the So
called restored government OF Virginia to its
