ized, that have been gathered by the recent levies; but the numbers are becoming formidable. Sixty thousand is the lowest figure to which the official information will reduce them; and, after making all the necessary discounts and deductions, I cannot see how we can work them down to an actual number of less than thirty-five or forty thousand. With Beauregard at their head, it will be seen that this force will not let our expedition remain without anything to do. The Yankees in Stafford county, Va. The Fredericksburg Herald, of Friday last, says: The narrow escape of pickets and couriers may be gathered from the following incident. A counter from the Lancaster cavalry had been dispatched from Stafford Court House early yesterday morning (and before the enemy's advance was known) to a camp in King George. Returning from there last night, and all unconscious of the new state of affairs at Stafford Court House, he rode up briskly, dismounted his steed, turned him into an

Conway, Morgan, and Schooler, they took all clothing of all sorts, money, plate; tore up R. Conway's bonds before his face, poured ink and wine on the carpet, and broke the furniture. One negro, armed and in uniform, searched his house, even up stairs, saying he was looking for concealed officers. Drunken Zouaves danced about old Mr. Conway's house, but were ordered off by their Captain, who sang Dixie to the negroes in the presence of the ladies. They stole two horses, and threatened to cut old "Col." Morgan "to mince meat, and make breastworks of his d
d correspondents can with ready ingenuity convert it into one, but the French and Englishmen, who saw with their own eyes this unparalleled affront put upon the invincible " cheese box," will tell a different story. Discretion is the better part of valor, and upon this maxim, more prudent than chivalrous the Monitor saw fit to act yesterday morning. The Yankees said in Stafford. The Fredericksburg News has a long account of the excesses committed by Sickles and his ruffians in Stafford county, a portion of which we copy: About 1,600 Yankees, with four pieces of artillery, six-pounders, each drawn by sixteen negroes, landed at Evansport on the night of April 2d, by the light of Evana's House, which they set on fire. Thursday morning they went to Capt. Graves's and took all his horses and Mr. Stonnell's. At Mrs. Powers's Sickles asked for "something to drink"--the thirsty warrior!--and something to eat. The yard was full of men romping and boxing.--One asked Mrs. P. if
The enemy in Stafford --Probable Occupation of the Town of Fredericksburg. Information was received by the citizens of Fredericksburg, Va., at 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, that the enemy was approaching through Stafford county, and the fact was at once communicated to our pickets and to Col. Lee's cavalry; but it seems that the latter previously had an intimation of the advance, and at once fell back, burning the three bridges across the Rappahannock, connecting Fredericksburg with Stafford, as they came into town. These bridges, as many of our readers are aware, were the railroad, Coaltar's, and Falmouth bridges. Yesterday morning, at an early hour, the Yankees reached Falmouth, opposite Fredericksburg. On of our informants says that they threw a few shells across the river, but there being no response, the firing soon ceased.--Of this, however, we are not positive.--Meanwhile, the three steamers, the St. Nicholas, the Virginia, and the Eureka, and some thirty sail
