Such movements of his Cavalry as were
gong on seemed to be of the nature of a

Lse's army is preparing for a sudden
move, but seemingly disposed to wait for
Grant TO open and develope his game.
Toe movement of our gunhoaIs up the
RappshaunOck has raised an alarm that
burnside was effecting II landing there.
aud uew alarm has been rnised among
the rebels OF "a movement up the south side
of James river.
The rebels are divided between the fear
tina, Lee may be Invested 10 Richmond,
should he tall back there, and fear that be
may be Ourftuked by Grant should be re

Two weeks ago Lees forces amounted
