Passengers who arrived here yesterday on
the Dictator, state that when they left City
Point it was currently reported there that Fitz
Hugh Lee was inside of the fortifcations ad =
joining this city, with eight thousand cavalry.
Another report circulated in this city last eve.
ming, equally as fabulous, was to the effect
that Nosby had captured a large number of
wood choppers. between this city and Amman
dale, together with several wagon trains, en-.
gagged in the transportation OF wood to this
city. Both reports were withsut the least
foundation in fact Such reports are excellent
food for the secesh Of this city, who circulate
them most industrionsly.
the fish market continues TO be well sup.
piled with rock fish, white and yellow perch,
carp. &c. The prices are daily ranging lower.
as the fishing season approaches. AS beef is
selling from zoe. to SOC. per 10 our people are
subsisting principally upon fish, which comes
much lower, and which, as a change and
relish, are much better.
Wood and coal are both arriving by way of
the river but prices still remain very high
Coal Is held at Sl6 and SIS per ton, and wood
at 50 to Sl2 per cord. These are exorbitant
prices, but the prospects are favorable to a
speedy reduction.
