The Dudley Buck touched at Fortress Monree, where it was rumored that Gen. Foster had surrendered. A letter from Col.

GEN. Keyes: Some light skirmishing has taken plac day at Suffolk. Absurd rumors were quite prevalent yester- day in the vicinity of the tortress that the iron- clad Merrimac, attended by several rebel gun- boats, was about to come down the Jaimes river, but they were not credited by intelligent persons. Lieutenant Colonel Kimball, of the 9th New York Zouaves, was suddenly killed by a pistol shct in the hands of a superior officer. The re- pert says that he had applied to the officer for @ pass, but was re d, and upon using in- sulting language hor on the spot. Gen. Corceran is the superior officer named in con- nection with the aWair. It is well known that the rebels, as well as the Federals, have very considerably increased their forces within the last few days on the Roanoke and Seaboard railroad, and it seems quite evident thatere long a general eng ment will take place. The forces are well posted on the Blackwater riyer, and should the rebels attempt to advance they will assur- edly meet with a most determined resist: On Saturday some skirmishing took place o the part of the advanced outposts, but the cas- ualties were of a trifling character.

The bread riot in that city was witnessed by him, and caused the greatest consternation among the authorities. The women were the heads of the families of the working classes, and were actually starving, many having been com- pelied to beg on the street. A repetition of the demonstration is feared» Reinforcements are hurrying up to Fredericks- burg us rapidly as possible. Most of them are conscripts and conyalescents. Several divi- sions are encamped about Richmond. Work has been suspended upon the fortifica- tions around Richmond, their impregnability being considered certain. Earthworks are be- ing thrown up along the Rapidan river; but the force in that vicinity is composed chiefly of cavalry. The gunboats, iron-clads, are afloat in the James river.
