\\'e learn that the whole. army again took up
ihe hne oi march oj* outurday imu Sunday for
Fredericksburg. Warren^n was evacuated to
Jay. General iiuiTjsnie >; headquarters were
;?tCatieft s Suit-ion to-day and ere tins reaches
you the whole army will be nearuig Frederieks
buns. A large quantity *?i* supplies have been
sent there and a force ef e^mtrabands and me
clmnie.S mider General Haupt, are building
kwarvcs and the railroada t Aquia Creek.
This base was considered the best one for
operating upon the heart uf \ irginia, and was
adopted at the Cabinet council we sent you
word of last Wednesday. The Confederates in
ilichmond are aware of the new programme.
j. j
hence there can be no impropriety in publishing
it in the North.
The steam gunhont Satellite and Yankee ran
up to Aquia Creek on Friday, and found it de- i
sertedby the Confederates. j
General Bayard occupied Falmouth yester
day. the Confederates failing back before him.
No battle has taken place to-day, and no skir
mish. All is quiet at Fairfax Court House and
Bui! Run. -

(Jainesvillk, Va.? >o\\ 16, 3 R M.?For
several days past the corps in the advance of
us have been moving. The headquarters o!
Genera! Sigel are still here, hut there is con
siderable speculation on all hands to know what
will transpire within the next forty-eight hours.
Evidently there will heamo^e, but which way,
none except those high in authority, know.
The late orders of General Burnside, divid
ing the Army of the Potomac into three grand
divisions, also make SigeFs command (the
Eleventh Corps) the reserve force.
From the tenor of the order, it is more than
likely thai this is done to give the General
time to fill his command from the new regiments
sent forward.
At present the greater portion of his com
mand is at the Gaps, guarding them, as they
are important avenues of advance and retreat.
It is not likelv that the G eneral will be long;
kept inactive.
Gen Sigel visited General Burnside, yester
day, at his headquarters, at Warrenton. The
result of their interview has not been made
Yesterday. General StahFs cavalry reconnoi
