THE SITUATION. The following order of General Hooker, which we,received late last night, may meet the evil com- plained of by the Commanding General, and was issued, we suppose, in consequence of the reeent public: is of false intelligence in Phitagelphis and in this city by republican journals, Our let ters hereafter will, of course, bear the required signatures. The order came too late this morning to be complied with in to-day’s publication :— merontisr OBDER RESPECTING ARMY CORRESPON- DENTS. : . HEADQUARTERS, ARMY OF THR POTOMAC, Cave Naar Fatwoumn, Va,, April 80, 1868. ‘The [requent transmission of false intelligence, and the betrayal of the movements of the army to the enemy, by the publication of injudicious correspondence of an anonymous character, makes it necessary to reqairo all newspaper correspondents to publish their commu- @ications over their own signatures, 1a came of failure to comply with this order, through their own or their employers’ neglect, such correspondents will bg emeluded from, and the circulation of the journals for wOtth they correspond suppressed within, the lines of this army, Commanding officers and Provost Marshals are dirested te enforce shis order, and will keep themselves informed of ali the gorrespondents within the limits of their re- spective camps, and should any such disregard its require- meats, will sead them forthwith beyond the lines of this acwmy. By cominand of Major General HOOKER. 8. Wruvaus, Assistant Adjutant General, Officiat—S. F. Banstow, A. A. G. Genetal Hooker's army has made a positive, ana, no far, a successful advance, having crossed the Rappahannock on Wednesday, encountered the eupmy on the other side, drove them from their rife pita belew the city of Fredericksburg, cap- tured five hundred prisoners and gained » decided viotdby over the rebels.” The troops are reported to be ia magnificent condition, both as regards health and discipline. The crossing was made by the right wing above, and the left wing below the city, General Hooker superintend- ing the laying of the pontoon bridges near Kelly's Ford im person. The rebels made but a slight show of resistance at this point, as the One Hondred snd Fifty-fourth New York and Seventy-third Pennsylvania crossed over, but fel! back after a little skirmishing. The advance of Hooket’s army has crossed the Rapidan. General Lee's forces are therefore outflanked tea great exteat, and mnst either give battle or fall back te Richmond. Our army correspondence to-day re- lative to this important advance is full and in- teresting, and our map of the Rappahannock, Ra- pidan, the fords and surrounding country will be found moat valuable in following the movements of the grand army. Prom our correspondence from Fortrees Monroe oxTharaday we learn that Col. Robert M. West, commendiog Fort Magruder, made an attack, with infantry an@ cavalry, én the enemy at Williams- bang, and succeeded in driving the rebels two miles feyond the town. Our pickets are at pre- sent stationed there, and are ordered to maintain thel: position at all hazards. J Hy the arrival of the transport Escort from New- bern, N. C., we have intelligence from that region upto the 29th ult. General Palmer made & suc- coastal recennoissance towards Kinston, and re- turned after driving the rébels from their position behind earthworks within cight miles of that place. The chief participators in the affair were the For- ty-fifth Massachusetts and the Fifty-cighth Penn- sylrania regiments. Akirmishing to great extent bad been going on in the vic‘nitles of Newbern and Washington. The ehomy have been repulsed at every point, and considerable numbers of rebel prisoners have been takem and sent into Newbern. General Hill is supposed to be at Goldsboro, with a portion of the forces with which he lately invested New- ero and Washington. 4jeucral Heckman forwards his official report of ‘the march of his forces to Washington and the operations there. ‘The news from the Southwest is most important. By the arrival of « steamer at Cairo yesterday, from Milliken’s Bend, we are informed that nearly the whole of our army at that point was in mo- tion, leaving tents and baggage behind, and the ebldiers taking six days rations. {t ia stated, on what is considered reliable au- thority, that General Osterhans occupies Grand Galf. Two tags, having in tow four hay barges, tua past the batteries at Vicksburg om Saturday aight without being fired upon. Despatches from Franklin, Tennessee, dated yes- terday, report a splendid dash of our cavalry un- der Colonel Campbell, of the Second Michigan, among General Van Dorn’s rebel pickets, near Thompson's station. The enemy were prepared torum, Fourteen of them were killed and twonty wounded, and eleven prisoners taken, including one officer. A ALTE I Milian.
