General Grant ie evidently aiding his heutenant in the most effective possible man- ner, sud may probably avail himself of the ser- vices of the old sea-dogs that have been so long lying around Ham ton Roads RENE, REPORTS The Southern papers give very full and appar- mtly reliable news of Gen, Warren's movements from the time he lef{ our Hnew at Petersburg. It will be remembered that the expedition broke eamp at daylight on Wednesday morning, Ac- cording to the Richmond papers it followed the line of the Weldon Railroad, and arrived at Proe- tor's Milla, twenty miles south of Petersburg, on Wodnesday night. On Thursday he reached Jar- ret's @tation, thirty-two miles south of Peters. burg, and was advancing towards Weidon, rome thirty miles further south. Should this account prove correct, it is probable that the reported battle may bave taken place at Weldon, in place of Jarret's Station, as reported, The rebel theory of Gen. Warren's movernent is that it was in- tended to prevent reinforcements from being sent from Virginia to oppose Gen, Bherman The Richmond Disratrom of Friday bas the following in reference to this subject: Information reached the ci that « torce from Grant's Petersburg and Weldon Rai! thirty-two miles south of Petersburg, proceeding towards Wellon.

The entire country was covered with a sheet of ice. To-night it is raining, and the roads are in a very bad condition. It ‘# believed that Gen. Warren will have no difficulty in rea b- fug Lis destination, notwithstanding the weather, The lateat information from the enemy on the Woldon Railroad is that they were still moving to- warde Weldon, and were provided with auch on siwount of stores as to induce the belief that they were prepared for a long march, or, at all eve a long nce, It ig useleas to speculate upc their plans, which will be fally known in a day or two. It is probable that the primary object of the movement was to occupy the road, or eo tnjure it as to prevent our sending any reiniorcements te our forces operating against Sherman's arwy, The Senrr:. of the same date states: This move is probably inteued as a diversion to draw attention to more important demonstrations against Richmond, whieh it is believed Grant con- templates making.
