Twenty-two fine boats, (oneof which 1s fitted Yor carrying small arms,) 1,000 pounds of ba- con, 2 horses, 60 bushels of wheat, a chest of carpenter’s tools, and many other articles, were brought off.

He is in reality the prince of American pianists, shunning all clap-trap and trickery on the Piano, and relying on his merits as a genuine &rtist for success. He will perform on one of Steinway’s corcert grands, so powerful as to almoet equal a full orchestra in itself. s7The New York Sanitary Fair closed on Saturday evening, having realized $1,011,000.

Mu. a ‘ THE SITUATION. ‘En‘ormation from the rebel lines as late as Friday morning last is to the effect that Lee ‘was rot, as reported, moving toward the Shen- andosh Valley, but was at that time in his old position on the Rapidan. Sach movements of his cavalry as were going on seemed to be in the nature of réconnoissances to ascertain Grant's purposes; and the fact of Grant’ssend- ing out unusally large picket forces seems to have mystified the enemy on various occasions. Lee’s army was preparing for asudden move but was seemingly disposed to wait for Grant to open and develop his game. The move- ments of our gunboats up the Rappahannock had raised an alarm in Richmond that Burn- side was effecting a landing there; and a new alarm had been raised among the Confederates of a movement by the Federals up the south side of James River. The Confederates are divided between the fear that Lee may be invested in Richmond, should he fall back there, and the fear that he may be ontflanked by Grant, should he remain in his present position. Two weeks ago Lee’s force amounted to 40,000 men, and itis believed that it is now, with the reinforcements he has been able to bring yp, not above 85,000 men. FLOUR CONTRACTS.
