[for the Richmond Dispatch.]Religions reading for the soldiers. Richmond, Va., Oct. 2, 1861.
The following is from a letter written by a Lieutenant stationed at Monterey:
"I have never seen a time more appropriate in every sense of the word for the distribution of tracts among any class of persons than that now presented by the Confederate army.
The soldiers are starved for reading matter.
They will read anything.
I frequently see a piece of paper no larger than my hand going the rounds among them.--Surely there is nothing better for these hungry minds and souls than the "bread of life," and I hope you will send me a supply of tracts and Testaments.
I will distribute them."
The captain of a company at Yorktown sends $5, and says: "When I entered the service I took along with me a parcel of religious tracts and books, which I have distributed among our men, and from what I have seen of the good effects of reading them, I feel assured that great good may be effec
From Norfolk.
Paroled prisoners — a schooner abandoned--fifteen thousand Dollars sunk with her — Commercial meeting — Portsmouth Baptist Association, &c. [special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Norfolk, Oct. 2d, 1861.
Fourteen of the Confederate soldiers who were taken prisoners at Rich Mountain, and who have been released on parole, arrived here last evening.
They arrived at Old Point yesterday from Baltimore, having reached that city via Columbus, Ohio, on Monday.
Several of these brave men are badly wounded, some five or six being compelled to use crutches.
One of them, whose name is John A. Taylor, lost his right leg, which was amputated close to the hip joint.
His left leg was terribly mangled, but will probably be saved.
I learn that he fought with most desperate and reckless bravery at one of the guns of the gallant Captain Delagnel.
Taylor states that there were about a dozen of his comrades who had their legs amputated, and that all have died.

Army of the Potomac.[our own correspondent.] Fairfax Oct. 2, 1861.
The Federals continue to advance cautiously upon our lines, and how have considerable force in Falls Church, on Munson's hill, Mason's hill, and in the vicinity of Annandale.
Our pickets have fallen back from the village of Falls Church, which is reported destroyed, us large volumes of smoke have been seen rising from the valley in which it lies.
They have advanced also nearly to Annandale, and are now within eight hundred yards of it. This morning a party of scouts came on the hill opposite the village and fired on our videttes, who were posted to watch their approach.
The distance between them was so great that no damage was done.
Early in the morning a company of infantry appeared in a corn-field on an eminence, but retired immediately upon a sight of our pickets.
Along the line from Lewinsville to Springfield the Federals seem to be advancing slowly and cautiously, scouring the woods thoroughly in ev
