General Kngagement Yet. ———— [From the Bal imore American, May 7.} The latest intelligence received at Washing- ton last evening trom the Army of tne Potomac was tbat Geveral Grant bad crossed the Rap- idan with ihe entire army, and had abandoned all bis communications with Washington. The railroad to Alexandria was entirely aban- doved, and he had destroyed the telegraph, pours on after the retreating rebel army, and aving no rear to protect. A mail carner who bad just arrived reported that he had left Cal- peper Court House on Thursday and found it entirely abspdoned. and for fifteen miles this sive bedid not encounter a single soldier, until beyond Kull Run, when he met the force of General Burnside, which forms the rear guard, advancing. It is therefore evident that we Must look for our first intelligence from the vicinity of Richmond. The story put forth yesterday by the New York World, of a disaster to Gen. Burnside, proved, like most of the statements of nat paper, to be eutirely fabulous. On the contra- ry, & portion of his cavalry on Thursday passed through Thoroughfare Gap, and en- countered the rear of Imboden’s cavalry, which was moving towards Richmond from ‘Western Virginia. The skirmish resulted in killing several of the enemy, one of whom was an officer of Imboden’s staff, whose body fell Into the possession of our cavalry. On his person was found the copy of a dispatch from. General Lea ordering Imboden to join him south of the Rapidan as speedily as possible. ‘There was no boat arrived yesterday from Old Point, and consequently none went down last evening. Whether the boats have been taken for military purposes or to stop all com- munication with the seat of war we have not been able to learn. We learn from Washing. ton, however, that it was the intention of Gen. Grant to stop all communication except such as he may send by the military telegraph via Fortress Monroe, trom Yerktown and Wil- Uamaenrg: until some decisive result was ob- tained. The report received yia New York of amove- ment of Gen. Baidy Smith towards Petersburg, crossing the James river at City Point, threat- ening that place as well as Fort Darling, is not credited in Washington. On the contrary, he is believed to have crossed the Pamunkey, making his base of supplies at West Point. There is, however, Ro doubt of the fact that we may look at any moment for some impor- tantif not decisive inteMigence. Gen. Lee is reported at Washington to be retreating io- wards Hanover Court-House and the line of the Chickahominy. Whether he will give battle there, or fall back within the defences of Richmond and stand asiege,a few days will develop. NEWSPAPER RUMORS AND DETAILS. We copy the following from the New York papers of yesterday: t Special Dispatch to New York Times.} ABHIRGTON, May 5.—The Army of the Po- tomac began its forward march on Monday. The crossing of the Rapidan was effected with- out opposition cn Tuesday and Wednesday at Culpeper, Jacobs’s, Germania and Ely’s Fords. No rebels were seen, except & few pickets, who retired as we advanced. If Lee intends to make a stand this side of Richmond, it is pos- sibic he may be met near the old battie ground of Chaxcelsorsville, but it is the general im- pression that_he has fallen back from his po- sition on the Rapidan to Richmond, in order to protect that city from the formidable forcenow marching upon it from the rear, and whichis as likely to strike on one side of the James river as the other. Culpeper is being strongly fortified, and will be used as a depot for stores. Itis reported hera to-day thata strong colamn of troops under Generals Couch aad Sigel. are marching from Winchester up the Shenandoah Valley as a co-operating column, destined eventually to cut the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad, while Butler’s force, or a part of it, strikes the other railroad at or near Petersburz, thus severing all railroad communications be- tween Richmond and the South. General Butler took the field in person at the head of the army on the Peninsula yesterday, and his host is marshalled by sach lenders ag W. F. Smith, Gilmore, Terry and Godfrey Weitzel. This movement assumes an expeditionary character. An immense fleet of transports and astrong squadron of monitors and ganboats will convoy it up one of those broad rivers to the gates or to the back door of Richmond, and perhaps the iron-clads may once more try the ee ne must be nearer Richmond than the Rap- THE VERY LATEST The Enemy Abandon the Line ef the Rep- (Special Despatch to the World.) There fs o: doubt uow from intelligence re- ceived from Bealton station to-day, but that Lee bas entirely abandoned his on the Rapican. and with his army bas taken the Toacs runnir g from the south of that stream to Crarge Springs and Grover's bridge, west of Mine Ron, and of the branches of the North ard South Apna rivers, destined either for the entrenchments at Richmond or for a position at Hanover Court Homse,__ There is no indication of 4) redel movement into the Vales of Virginia, and the factof Lee's General retreat, as he did formerlyat Mine Run und beyond, seems thus clearly established. Rumors from the Peninsula. Pastengers who arrived in th sity from Raltimore lastevening. state that information had been received there, from Rebel sources as wel as from Norfolk and Fortress that Gen. W. F. (Baidy) Smiin, with o army, had disembarked on the sou’ side of the J+mes river, not far from Fort Dar! ca Drury’s Bluff, asthe Rebels call it. His object wae of course & matter of mere alation—it might be & feintto distract the Rebels and pre- vent the sending of reinforcements to Lee, but, if it was in earnest it meant that Fort Darling and Peteraburg were to be captured and Rich- Mond cut oft trom direct railroad communica- Sop sith North Carolina and the rest ofthe Scuuth. it shia news is correct, and it ie iy de- lv veo in Baltimore, the occupation of Wes: Point on last Monday wae merely to deceive theenemy.

[We give the above without attaching im. portance to it.

Thirteen transporis and gunbosta are said to have been blown up by his ordere to prevent them falling into the hands .of the enemy. This story is certainly doubtful, to say the least as the latest advices via Oairo from Alexandria make no allusion to any engagement, + «+e » CONGRESSIONAL. ehocet a, In THE SENATE yesterday— The Nationat Pank bill came up in order, when Mr. Sherman called for the reading of & letter from Secretary Chase, dated the Jd inst., addressed to Mr. Fessenden, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and whieh had been referred to in course of debateon Thurs- day. The letter is as follows: Sir: Nothing but my deep sense of the im- portance of sustaining, by every ible means, the public credit, upon which sole dependence of the Government for means to suppress the insurrection must rest, would induce me to address you this letter upon 2 subject which has already received so muci consideration. The bill in relation to the National Bankin, system, now under debate, ia in the nature an emendmentte the actof last session. Though & complete bill in itself, it contains few provi- sions not substantially embraced in that act, among which that in relation to the measure and distribu:ion of taxation, inay be regarded, - perhaps, the most important. Underordinary circomstances there might be no insuperable objection tu leaving the property organized under the National Banking law subject, as are almost all descriptions of Prop: erty, to general taxation, State, natio: and municipal. But in the present condition of the country, £ respectfully submit that thie partic. ular description of property should be in the same category with imported goods before entry Into general consumption, and be sub- jected to exclusive taxation.

Worid,} HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE Potomac, May 4,68. m—The grand campaign is inan. gurated at last. The Army of the Potomacis on the march! Inasmuch as the, present moyement will be know: id perhaps felt—by the entire rebel army in 6&r front before the close of the day, there can be no harmin making it public at once, The order to march was issued from Gen’! Meade’s headquarters yesterday morning, and was minated through the army by 2 p. m. Gen’l Grege’s cavalry division, accompanied by 8 portion of the can vas pontoon train, moved yesterday afternoon toward Richardsviile,and ‘were en, d until late at night repairing the road to Ely’s Ford. Soom atter midnight that division moved to the ford named, to establish QS crossing. About midnight the 3d Cavalry Division, with another portion of the canvas pontoon train, left for Germania Ford, 5 or 6 miles above, there to establish another croasing. Itis reported at this hour that both efforts were successful. The advance of the Second Corps, Major Gen’! Hancock commanding, broke camp at midnight, and moved down the Stevensburg and RichardsvilJe road toward Ely’s Ford. The entire corps were on the march before 3 o’clock this morning in the same direction, and serneEpetet to effect & crossing soon after da; The Fifth Corps, under Major Gen. Warren, commenced moving atmidnight, Theadvance, consisting of two divisions of infantry and a portion of the artillery, passed through Ste- vensburg at midnight, closely followed by the remainder of the corps—all marching toward Germania Ford. ‘The Sth corps was closely succeeded by the 6th, under Gen. Sedgwick, which quitted its camp at4da.m. Both the Sthand 6th corps 4 mania Ford. The entife movement of the army resolves itself into the crossing of the Rapidan river at two fords, toward the right flank of the enemy, placing itseif crossing, on a'line — pare allel with the river, between Orange House and Chancellorsyille.
