The enemy's fleet — Movements of McClellan's army. The daring exploit of a few members of the Prince George cavalry, on James river, opposite McClellan's camp, last Saturday morning, has led to greater watchfulness on the part of the enemy, who seem to fear for the safety of their fleet of transports. All the vessels have been drawn up as near as possible to the Northern shore of the stream, where they are protected by gunboats. The belief that a considerable portion of McClellan's army e quietly crossing the Chickahominy and marching down the Peninsula towards Fortress Monroe; but before giving currency to this report, we preferred to await further developments. It is now asserted that observations from the opposite side of James river show that many of the enemy's tents have disappeared, and it is also noticed that the vessels in front of the camp frequently diminish in number during the night. --That some important movement is in progress, seems to be well authenticated; a

I venture the opinion, however, that the Richmond Enquirer, which thinks that McClellan means to "dig his way" to the Confederate capital, is substantially correct. These tools are not needed in our camp at present. Unless the Confederates succeed in obstructing the James river below us, which it is not believed here can be accomplished, though strenuous efforts are making to render navigation dangerous, the picks and shovels and other instruments we have received need never be used here. Our camps are so situated that the gunboats can shell the Confederates far over our heads, and while they are too far away to do us particular harm, whatever their numbers; besides, our vast artillery, protected by strong earth-works, would play havoc among them, and perhaps k
