The steamer Jefferson, which left Frsder-
1oksburg yesterday morning, arrived mere
about O'Clock last evening, bringing up uoout
one hundred rebel soldiers. sixteen guerriila',
and three rebel citizens. These soldiers were
captured near Hanover Junction, and among
the number was Col Manning OF the Sd Ar
kansas, three captains, and five heutenants.
The guerriIlas were taken while making an
attack upon one of our trains near Fredericks-
burg.
Among the prisoners brought up on the JEFF
ferson was rebel citizen of Fredericksburg
who was arrested for poisoning bread and ten
derirg ii to our wounded soldiers.
The Jefferson also brought mp fifty contra
bands portion OF whom were from the vicin-
ity OF Bowling Green. Among this party was
an old female contraband, who says that she
is over one hundred years of age. She says
that her master still remains on his farm, near
Bowling Green, and that before the arrival of
the Union troops he was "secesher," but the
stLord only knows what he is now," and she
s'specks he amt much OF any thing"
When the Jefferson left Fredericksburg all
of our wounded with the exception of some
thirty or forty severe casey had been placed
upon steamers then lying at the dock, and as
soon as those remaining were removed it was
the intention of the authorities 10 evacuate the
place, as it Is Of no further use to our forces,
owing TO Grants onward march. Detachments
Of cavalry and infantry, which had been gar
risoning the place, had already broken camp,
preparatory to the evacuation.
The Areo, from Aqua Greek, arrived here
this morning at half-past o'clock. Parties
who came up on her report that Aqua Greek
was evacuated yesterday afternoon. The cars
on the Fredericksburg road stopped running in
the morning, and the rolling stock Of the road
was placed upon transports and taken away.
Yesterday evening one of our gunboats was
lying of Aqua Creek, engaged in burning
such buildings as would afford shelter to the
rebel guerrillas.
The Argo landed a force Of three hundred
cavalrymen at Boyd's Hole the terminus OF
the ilitary telegraph. The cavalry was
landt there for the purpose, it was supposed,
of protecting the line from the depreciation of
rebel guerrillas.
