THE SITUATION.

No apprehensions, so far as we have been
able to discover, exist here that Longstreets op-
erations in East Tennessee will possibly result
in any serious damage to us in that quarter
AS it may not be proper for US to explain why
it is judged that his efforts destined to con-
time to be abortIve, as vitality important to
the rebel cause as success on his part certainly
is Just now. We merely state the fact thus.
Reliable information received here, confirms
the truth Of the limitations gwen out in the
course Of recent debates in the rebel Congress,
that Lees army is in every way in worse con-
dition than ever before since l.. assumed its
command He needs men ard material OF al
most every description to so great an extent as
that it is being urged in their current secret
congressional debates that unless it can be
greatly strengthened in every way, all hope
for the rebel cause will be lost so soon as the
opening of Spring permits our armies to re-
sumo offensive operations.
We may add that the story that the rebels
are operating against us with fifteen thous and
men in Eastern North Carolina, which some
Of our stanpeded in the vicinity Of Newbern
have sent to Fortress Monroe, is secuted here.
Though their force there may outnumber ours
precisely at that point more or less, the fifteen
thousand story Is evidently but the result Of a
great scare.

A NOTORIOUS GUERRILLA CAPTURED

GUERRILLA CAPTURED.
On Saturday morning detachment of 90
men of the 18th New York cavalry, under
command of Lieut.. Jones, started on a recon-
noissance from Vienna and proceeded to Fair
fax. whence they proceeded toward the Deco
guam, and on the way stopped at the house of
a notorious guerrilla, known as Black Hawk,
supposed by the soldiers to be Smith Fairfax
between twelve and fourteen miles from Fair
fax. They however did not see their man,
and proceeded on their way. On Sunday,
when returning, Sergeant Nicholas Sheffen
and private Alvin E. Haskns, who were
thrown out as an advance, espied Black
Hawk running toward his house, and they
gave chase and succeeded in capturing him.
When the guerrilla was running he had on a
Confederate uniform, but succeeded in diyest-
ing himself OF it before his capture. Just as
he was captured, Lieut.. Mathew Tuck, who
had command of the advance platoon came
up and secured the prisoner. Black Hawk
had just arrived home, Us he did not expect
the Federals would return to search for him
so soon.
Lieut.. Tuck placed the guerrilla on an extra
horse which they had, first taking the precau-
ton to remove the bride, and to cause the
horse to be led by the halter, and he was tn us
conveyed to Fairfax and lodged in Jail.
Black Hawk no doubt had hopes of escape,
for he offered Lieut.. Tuck all the money he had
upon the horse he was riding. Lieut.. T., how
ever, could not see the point. The party also
captured another man belonging to Black
Hawks command The latter was a Confed-
crate captain at the first battle of Bull Run, but
has for q long while been known one of the
most notorious guerrIlias that have been infest-
ing the region OF the Occoquan and Aqua
