Notwithstanding tbo rumors afloat of changes in lite
positions of tba armies of General Meade and General
1-ee, oiiicers jnst arrivod from the rront report that every
thiug romaius in ttatu <{uo. The cavalry are in motion,
bat nothing of interest baa occurred.
Two more of Mosby's guerillas were captured in the
Vicinity or Fairfax Court House last night. They wore

Mr. P. a. Chapmaa'i Despatch..
HbUKtCARTKfcl, AK*V OF THS POTOMAC,
August 22, 18C3. J
I had a long conversation yesterday with a well inform
edseoesb citizen of Warrenton, daring which I gleaned
what the rebel expectations were and are regarding Gen.
Lee's movements.
They (tbe?ece.<h) claim that Lee's army now numbers
over one hundred thousand men, notwithstanding the
large numbers ho has spared to reinforce Charleston ; that
the rebel conscription and Jeff. Davis' proclamation bate
hud the desired effect in replenishing tho rebel ranks; that
the French army from Mexico will soon have possession of
Texas, while a French fleot will drivo the Union vessels
from the Mississippi and Gulf coast, thus opening all tho
extreme Houthern ports to foreicn trade. Lee is to tnovo
?round agalh by tho way of Strasburg with a part of his
force, crow the mountain* at Thorough: arc, ABhby's and
Manassas gaps, and fall upon our roar and (kink, while
the rest are to move on us by the way of the Rappahan
nock river. Lee's apparent retrograde movement to
wards Richmond Is only a coyer (or bis real designs.
On the other haad, deserters from TeeVT army state
that the rebels are in a mwt deplorable con
ilition; tbat they are fighting amrngst them
selves; that Jeff. Davis refuses to let the North
Carolina and Mississippi troops leave Virginia, fearing
that they may ospouae the Union tause; that large num
bers of Virginia and South Carolina troops havo boen sent
to North Carolina to bold tbat State in subjugation to
Fontborn rule; that tbo North Carolina troops dcc'are
they will not light lunger, and that there are not troops
anocgh in I-ee's army to enable liim to bold his present
position, let alone making any aggressive movement.
There, you have both stories, and can believe either or
both, or neither, as you please.
