SPECIAL TO Tna ntALD.
Washixutom, Oct IS. The abandonment
of Leesburg by the rebel force is confirmed
to day. They" are said to have proceeded to
wards a point on the Manassas Gap Railroad.
It is presumed they went to Mnnassasto join
tbe main body of thdr army there, but the
fact is not definitely ascertained, and the
opinion is entertained, in some qujrters, that
they have gone towards Harper's Kerry, by
way of Strasburg and Winchester. The Ut
ter, however. Is bsrdlv problable. For aome
days the rebel army has occupied the segment
of "a circle several miles in extent, reaching
from Leesburg to the north of the Occoquan
crrek.
The movement recently made by with
drawing from Leeburg, Vienna, Fairfax
Court House and Anandale, was unquestion
ably intended to reduce the (root, which now
extends only from the Petomir river, at the
mouth of 0(V04iian, upon that creek a along
Bull s Run to Manassss Junction, with Cm
tetville and Fairfax Court Houe occupied as
outprtsts. A very Urge body of their troop
is known tn be thrown towards the Potnrnc

strate against such irrerulsr proceedings, as
be dsiguated them, and to say that the au
thority of Cougre is necessary in order to
justify the arbitrary arrest and "imprisonment
of Rritiah subjects.
Secretary Seward in the course of his re
ply, after detailing the facts in regard to the
ttro prisoners named in the note of Lord Ly
on, sets:
The proceeding of which the UritUh Gov
ernment complains was taken Upoa informa
tion conveyed to the President by the legal
police authorities of the country, and they
were not instituted until after be h.d suspend
ed tte great writ of Freedom in just the
tent that in view of the penis of he State,
be deemed necessary for the cierrito ofthat
discretion.
He, aa well as hie chief advisers, among
whom are the Secretary of War and Secreta
ry of State, is responsible by law before the
highest tribunal of the Republic, and amena
ble ftko t j the judgment ot his country and
the enlightened portion of the chiliied
world.
In cor.i'luiion, Mr. Seward sits the sieh
of the whole people has become in the pres
ent exigency the supreme law, and o lon
as the danger shall et ist all classes f socie
ty, equally the denizen and the citizen, just
as cheerfully acquiesce in the enjoyment
which thU Isw proscribes.
The government does not question the
learning of the legal druert of the Rritish
Crown or the jnstice of the defence which
Her Msjcsty pays to them. Nevertheless
the British Ooverutnent will hardly eipect
that the President will accept the explana
tions of the Constitution of the United Slates,
especially when the Constitution thus ex
pounded would leave leave upon him the
sole executive responsibility of suppressing
the existing insurrection, while it would
transfer to Congress the moat material and
indispenmble posrer to be employed for that
purpose.
Moreover, these explanations find no real
support io the letter, much les in the spirit
of the Constitution. He must be allowed,
therefore, to prefer to be governed by the
orgnuic national Uw which, while it wiil en
able him to exercise his great trust with c m
t.lete ucces, receives the sanction of the
highest authorities of our great country, aud
is destined, by the getieral consent of the
people, for whom alone that Constitution
was established.

tobepatupm Sec. Seward's Circular by
alarmtsu. The Circular shows that our re
lations abroad are in good condition, and that
the Government means to keep them o.
Tbe Administration has taken measures to
put them right within and now turns ita at
tention to putt:ng there ril t withott. It
asks the co operation of the l"yal States in the
Utter as in tbe former.

Nme excitement has been created iu diplo

correnoUeoce between Lord Lyot.s and
Sec. Seward in relation to the arrest f Brit
isb SbjCl.
Several new arrests have been made ia
Baltimore.
ir rciAL to ma commuci l.
The gunboat Union went down the rittr
last idgkt, with a paymaster on board, des
tined, I believe, for Ft. Monroe. ThU morn
ing, to the mortification of the friend of the
Union, ahe returned here, reporting that ahe
found it impossible to get nasi the formidable
batteries which the rebels hate opened.
A recoouoisance went, yesterday, towards
the Occoqnan, and baa returned, taking the
Te egrsph road a tar a Actiuck Creek.
Pa rung srer sent to Acttuch and I'ohick, and
on a road leading up the Actiuck. ThU lat
ter partv met the rebel pickets who immedi
ately fell back and gave the alarm. Tb
long roll was beaten at the camp aero the
Creek.
From information received, there are n
iebels between the Telegraph road, and the
river this aide of Occuquan, and but a few at
the latter place.
The only advices received from the Urper
Pstomsc, at headquarters, ia a veiy brief dis
patch sent last night, saying the rbeU were
about leaving Boliver which is near Harper's
Ferry.
Three tug boat wentdowu the river, Utt
njht.to give assistance to any vessels com
ing up ; but iu consequence of the bright
moonlight, and afterward a thick fog, they
were ordered not to attempt to pass the bat
teries.
It is thought no aeaeU passed the batter
ies up or down last night. Firing was heart
from the batteries about midnight; but tie
cause ia unknown.
There are indications thst the rebeU are
erecting permanent batteries at Cock Pit
Point snd Freestone Fuint. Considerable
bodies of rebels were seen and beard at w ork
at these points, yesterday. Twenty six ves
sels are known to bavo run the" blockade
night before last, it is believed that t esse!
drawing not more than eight feet, can bus; the
Maryland shore sufficiently to escape barm
from the batteries.
The oniy steamers now at the nav sards,
are the Dawu, Hatezcl, AuacaUa, and Coeuj
de Lion.
The Resolute arrivt-d up. She reports the
loss of a schooner leaded with hay, off Occu
quan Creek, by the slipping of the cable, as
the Resolute was tos ing her. She driftod
near the shore aud w captured by the reb
els. It is reported that the rebels have stretched
a chain across the river ; but the Resolute
being of a liht draft, p i jed over it.
Gen. McCall, with a I- ee of infantrv, cav
alry and artillery, left Prospect Hill, this
morning, to reconnoitre. They reached
Draincville, ten miles frun Prospect Hiil,
without opposition.

It is now believed that th large number
of men reported to have deserted from Price's
army including some five or more thousand,
said to hare been disbanded after tbe fall of
Lexington, are still in the service of rebel
lion and will form in bands in various parts
of the State for bridge burning and general
marauding purposes.
The Cnnadinn Pre. on Seward's Cir
cular. ToaoxTt). Oct. 19. Both the Leader and
Globe newspapers of to day, devote each a
lenetby article to Seward's Circular.
The Leider says if preparations of thia na
ture are t be carried on, on the South shore,
the British power on tbe north is bound not
to lag behind. It cannot be an idle specta
tor of works avowedly intended to be a men
ace against its dominions.
The Globe says the Federal Government,
is exercieing a worse discretion which we of
the British empire, considering our antece
dents should be tbe last to impugn.

to this Department, brought an order from
the Presideut instructing Fremont t-i trans

Wami!oto)i, Oct. 19tb. Official intelli
gence from a geutlmsn just from tbe South,
savs our Squadron below New Orleans, bad
an engagement with the rebel Squadron, un
der Hollins Two of our vessels got aground
and suffered conridtrablj; but none were
aptured and but few lives lest.
Y oterday Hcintxelman made a reconnou
sjnee in force, towards Occuquan river.
Tbe long roll was distinctly beard iu the
rebel camps, across Actiuck Creek.
It appears there is in reU.1 force between
the Telegraph road and the river above Oc
cuqnan Creek, and no rebels for a considera
ble distance beyond Vienca.
A contriband reports three regiments at
LecsDurg, ready to retreat cn Manassas, U at
tacked. Full account of the firing on the Resolute
received, aUte that she was delayed three
quarters ofau hour by a chain stretched a
cross the river, during which time one bun
dred and fifty shots were fired at her. The
schooner Fairfax being nearest to the bat
tery, received, at leaat, filty shots, when the
rope connecting her to the Resolute, parted,
and she drifted near frhere and was captured.
No one hurl on board tbe Resolute.
Firing continued Irotn five batteries at
distance of two mile; but they have fifteen
mi'es rf batteries, nearly continuous.
One shot from Shipping Point leached the
Maryland idiore. four miles distant.
It is believed that teste! drawing not
more than eight feet, can hug the höre and
escape barm. Several vessel have already
run by.
WaVjiisgto. Oct. 29th. The foreign ad
Tices received by the Ui-t tteamer, at th
State Department, are more than usually sat
isfactory; but great activity in schemes to
violate the blockade and introduce contraband
good. eiisU.
Lorp Lyons had addree-ed a circular to tbe
British comuls in the Siouth, enclosing the
laws of th blockade, which does not allow a
vessel in a blockaded port to take on a cargo
after the anLOuncement of the blockade.
Lord Ljons instructs all consuls to take this
law for their guidance.
Mbe report that the rebels had stretched a
chain across the Potomac, proves to be vu
true. Since last Tuesday over fifty vessels
arrived up the river in spite of tbe rebels.
The tug Murray came up last night, with
sixachooners in tow, and escaped unhurt.
To-day a heavy dctachmect front Smith's
Division with cavalry and artilley, made a
reconnaissance toward Fairfax Court House,
and went within two and a half miles of there.
They saw rebel pickets m Urge numbers,
which "led to the belief that the reserve of
the rebels was not far off.
Generals McClellan. Smith, Hancock and
Porter accompanied the expedition.
