There ure many ramors afloat here relative to the rebyl movements in and about Richmond. ‘The lutest report, which find. some believers, ie that the evacuation of Richmond by the rebel government is now progressing. It has hera- tofore been admuted by the Richmond and North Carolina papers that Lee's army could not be maintained in Virginia if Knoxville and Chattanoogs fell into our hauds. These events having now both taken place, together with the invasion of Northern Georgia, probably gives rise to ihe rumor. FURTHER FROM EUROPE.
