For our own part, however, we see no indications of any active movements for some days to come, unless, indeed, they shall be initiated by the enemy, which is hardly probable, as it is known that Grant is passively awaiting reinforcements to enable him to "crush the rebellion" at one blow. That this is his plan is foreshadowed by his own declaration, and that he will be foiled we as firmly believe as we believe that tomorrows sun will rise. ell illustrated by a view of the shipping at City Point. Vessels of every class are constantly seen moving up and down the river, while others are anchored out in the stream, or moored at the wharf discharging freight or receiving the wounded of Grant's army, to be transferred North.

campaign of the war. It was situated in a pleasant grove, immediately on the railroad, two miles and a half south of Petersburg. The activity of the enemy and the magnitude of his operations on the Southside is well illustrated by a view of the shipping at City Point. Vessels of every class are constantly seen moving up and down the river, while others are anchored out in the stream, or moored at the wharf discharging freight or receiving the wounded of Grant's army, to be transferred North. An immense wharf has been constructed, and large warehouses have sprung up in every direction. The branch railroad from the City Point track to the Yellow Tavern has been completed as far as the Jerusalem plankroad, and trains are now running to the latter point.

Deserters and prisoners have informed the enemy that General Lee has moved his headquarters from Richmond to the neighborhood of Reams's station, on the Weldon railroad, with the avowed intention of giving battle. It is not very likely that General Lee would communicate his plans to the aforesaid "deserterGeneral Lee would communicate his plans to the aforesaid "deserters and prisoners," and, as a matter of course, their story was purely an invention of their own. Yet the Yankee correspondents say that a terrific battle is expected at any moment all along the lines. For our own part, however, we see no indications of any active movements for some days to come, unless, indeed, they shall be initiated by the enemy, which is hardly probable, as it is known that Grant is passively awaiting reinforcements to enable him to "crush the rebellion" at one blow.

The Confederacy loses nothing by the departure of such a man, notwithstanding the hue and cry raised by the Yankees on his arrival amongst them. From Trans-Mississippi. We get occasional reports through Northern papers of the active operations of the Confederate forces west of the Mississippi. The latest comes from Memphis, in the shape of a statement that the Federal gunboats Hastings and Naumkeag were captured below Clarendon, White river, Arkansas, and Captain Rogers, of the latter, killed. It is also reported that another gunboat, name not given, was sunk at St. Charles, and that Duvall's Bluff was threatened by a considerable force of "rebels." A Little Rock paper contains the particulars of a recent raid at Duvall's Bluff, which is situated on the Little Rock railroad. Large quantities of Government hay were burned, other property was destroyed, and some damage to the railroad inflicted.
