But two guns are to be seen mounted wer ‘or's Cffioe, at the City Ball, on FRIDA Daily and nightly reconnotsances over the river show that Beauregard’s army, or at least the ad- vanced portion of it, is constantly shifting most of its positions. Thus, on the night before last it was discov- ered that its pickets near Falls Church had been drawn in to very near the village boundaries; while those upon the Georgetown and Leesburg turnpike bad also been considerably drawn in. Nevertheless, the impression prevails in military circles bere that Beauregard is now massing most of bis troops between Fairfax Court House and Leesburg. That those moved a few days since from Manassas Junction, were advanced to that vicinity as explained above. It is further believed by the best informed here that everything that Davis has been able to scrape together in the way ef- fighting material, not absolutely required elsewhere, has been hurried on to Beauregard; and that the latter's army has been thus recently greatly increased. His pur- pose is now, apparently, to tempt or to provoke General McClellan to leave bis intrenchments; in which we hardly think he will shortly be accom- modated; as he must advance egainst them or decline the battle the secession authorities have been so long seeking, as their newsp2pers allege- The latter course on his part will be scarcely less disastrous to his cause, under existing cir- cumstances, than a defeat. None here doubt General McClellan’s entire Teadiness to receive the enemy whenever they may {magine themselves strong enough to ad- vance further in this direction, whether above, in front cf, or below the Federal Metropolis. THE CASE OF MR. SULLIVAN, ONE OF THE PCLITI- CAL PRISONERS AT FORT LAFAYETTE. The Secretary of State has addressed the follow- ing letter to Daniel Lord, Esq., of New York: DerartM«nt oF State. Washington, September 10, 1861 } To Daniel Lord, Esq., New York. Str: I have received your letter of yesterday re- lating to Algernon 8. Sullivan, a political prisoner now in custody at Fort Lafayette. This Depart: ment Is possessed of treasonable correspondence of that person which no right or privilege of a lawyer or counsel can justify or excuse. The‘pub- lie safety will not admit of his being discharged. In view of the many representations made tome in thiscase,{ pray your excuse for giving this letter to the public With great respect, sir, your obedient servant. Wittiam H. Sewarp. {It will be remembered that Mr. Sullivan above teferred to was acting 2s counsel for the privateer prisoners at New York.] No OFFICERS CAPTURED. The stories saying that a detachment under General Smith, on the night before last, captured a Confederate major and a captain, are incorrect. That detachment captured two privates of Vir- ginla cavalry at Lewinsville on that occasion, and killed two. No secession officers have fallen into Gen. McClellan’s hands since he bas been in com- mand of the Army of the Potomac. ARRESTED. As the matter has been made public by our co- temporaries, we suppose there can be no harm in stating that Mr. Chas. H. Winder, of this city, has been arrested by the authorities, on a charge of treasonable practices, and is now in durance. NAVY YARD. Arrest of an Officer—News from Old Point. Yesterday, the new gunboat, Ceres, was com- pleted, and taking on her armament, went down the river with a force of marines, under a lieuten- ant, to the U. 8. steam sloop-of-war Pocahontas, off Indian Head, where they arrested Capt. Dove, of that vessel, and returned with him to the yard about 10 o'clock p.m. He is confined with ex- Paymaster Gallagher on board the steamer Phil- ade!phia, under a guard of marines. It is not thought among the officers at the yard, that he is guilty of any greater misdemeanor than that of making a few imprudent visits to friends on the Virginia shore, which led to the arrest, in order that an investigation might be had as to whether he was Indirectly giving the enemy information or not. It is believed that he will resume his du ties on board the Pocabontas soon. The Ceres immediately returned down the river again last nighfand joined the flotilla. She is under the command of Capt. Elliot. who claims the add!- tional title of Reverend, and who is known by many as the ‘‘ Fighting Parson.” We shall look for a good report of himself and bis trim little craft. The steamer Mount Vernon, Captain Hannum, arrived from Old Point yesterday afternoon, re- Porting all quiet with the Potomac flotilla and at Fortress Monroe. The Mount Vernon bore dis- patches from here to the commang'ng office: it Old Point. bringing back dispatches from Major General Wool and Commodore Stringham,who is tarrying at Hygela Hotel. The U.S. steamer Seminole and the Rescue came up witb the Mount Vernon from the block- ading fleet, and joined the flotilla on the Potomac. The U. S. frigate Minnesota arrived at Old Point from New York, whither she had taken the Hatteras prisoners, Tuesday evening. he bell of the steamer Gipeey has been taken offand put up in Fort Ellsworth, near Alexan- dria. Several schooners with heavy cargoes of pine Piles have arrived at the yard, where they are to be used in making the foundations for the new buildings about to be erected. Several buge rifled cannon have been brought out of the shops and placed near the naval battery inthe yard dnring the last few days. Some of them are to be placed on board the new gunboats for the flotilla, which is daily becoming more effective. *KIRMISH NEAR LEWINSVILLE. A Federal Soldter Killed—Two Rebel Soldiers Captured, [Special correspondence of the Star.} Cuain Brineg, Sept. 11_—Editor Star: A large Scouting purty left here night before last under mand of Gen. Smith. Between Lewinsville and Mr. Cruiksbank’s farm, on the Leesburg turnpike, they fell in with a pretty large party of secessionists, when a sharp skirmish ensued. Jobn Dwinell, of Company H, New York 79th (Higblend) Regiment, was killed, and another member of the same regiment wounded. We no doubt “burt” some of the Confederates, and cap- tured a couple of their private soldiers, AFFAIRS OVER THE RIVER, Prisoner taken by a New York boy—What he has to say about matters and things in Dizie. (Special correspondence of the Star.) BaLu’s Cross Roads, Sept. 10 —Editor Star : To-day, one of the shirmishers of the New York Thirteenth Regiment took prisoner a secesh sol- @ier by the nome of A. B. Rose, belonging to the Eighteenth Virginia Regiment. He had been employed as a skirmisher to the right of his com- pany, and got a “ leetle” too near the New York boy, who was laying low in the underbrush, and who brought his Enfield riffe to bear upon the se- cesh skirmisher in a manner convincing enough to cause him to drop bis smooth bore and surren- der. The prisoner bragged, however, that he had belped,on Monday, to take two skirmishers of the De Kalb Regiment prisoners, who had been sent to Richmond. He says there are 170,000 of the enemy within a radius of twenty miles o¢ Manassas Junction, but that our troops will wait a long time if expect Beauregard to attack them in theirentrenchments. Jeff. Davis is not dead, he says, as we shall be apt to find out. There are portions of three Confederate regiments at Munson’s HID, and thelr encampment is among the trees back of the hill. The Confederates do ot feel secure at Munson’s Hill, and are in some dread of being cut off by McClellan. The pris- oner wns tekken to Fort Corcoran. He alleges that ‘be ina native of Rochester,N Y.

From the Richmond Whig of Thursday last we copy the following sarcastic denunciation of the Confederate Government : “NOBODY TO BLAME.’” There seems to be a disposition on the part of our papers and people to underrate the diszster at Rai . Let us imitate the Nutmeg Chinese by allmeans. The forthas been taken, many bun- dred men have surrendered, valuable officers have become prisoners, a amount of powder has been captured, the most important part of our coest for privateering purposes is in hands of the enemy, and the gallant North State is now lable to invasion and rapine—still, it is a small matter. It will take 30,000 men to regain the fort—but that’s nothing. What do we want with the fort? It was butt for fun, evidently, elee it would have been perfectly manned and seprtied with abundant ammunition. Had we earnest, some notice fgg poet oa been ages of = ‘warnii ven us by Northern pay . But truth Tee didnt ‘want to hold Hatteras The sole object in erecting that contemptible fortifi tion was to afford Picayune Butler a chance to re- trieve his misfortune at Bethel. Unquestionably, there must have been a determination somewhere, but not in high quarters—to give the Yankee an opportunity to lower Southern pride and abate Southern conceit. We have been crowing alto- ether too loudly of late. It was felt—but not by fre Government—that this was not good for us. Hence shot and shell were permitted to lie at Newbern and reinforcements were strenuously kept back, until the fort was captured correspondent of the Petersbug Ex has put Limerif to the unnecessary trouble of exoner- ting Colonel Gwin from all blame in this matter. The fact is, nobody isto blame. All admit that the Governor of North Carolina is innocent. It would be the height of folly and treason to accuse any member of the Cabinet of negligence in the remises. We who live at the seat of government now too well the superhuman energy,thesleep- less vigilance and the miraculous promptitude of every Department to entertain for» moment the shadow of a shade of suspicion of any shortening on the part of any one nearly or remotely con- nected with the Administration. Blame!” The word is singly. out of its place In this, or any other connection. lt ought to be dropped from the English language. Individuals in private life may ibly be to blame for this or that, but persons holding office—never! As for eminent oftictals living hundreds of miles from the scene of a disaster, how can they be to blame for it? The idea is absurd. Picayune Butler can now leave as many men as he pleaser in the fort of North Carolina. Of course, we will whipthem. Havn’t we the great- est abundance of unarmed militia? There is no occasion foralarm. *‘‘Nobody ishurt”? Nothing isin danger. Let every true patriot continue to Tepose the most unbounded confidence in the rulers of the Confederacy, and all will be weil, even Woosh Newbern, Washington and Charles- ton should be sacked. A sense of perfect security, a feeling of entire responsibilit mey result from this unbounded confidence. If the people think they are secure, and the Powers that be feel they are irresponsible. what more could any man de- sire? Let us Besfect our Government in all parts by a blind and loving reliance. Let us magnify our victories and underrate our defeats. It is the only way to getalong. By all means, let us go on pooh-poohing the affair at Fort Hatteras INTERESTING PROM NorTH Carotina—Report of Refugees who have Reached Philadelphia. — Last evening « party of seven, from Sladesvilie.
