From Suffolk.

Our intelligence, derived through an officer who left Suffolk on Thursday, contradicts the reports that our troops had "completely invested" Suffolk. They have not yet invested it, nor have they gotten between the enemy and Norfolk. What movements are on foot it would be improper to state.--In a skirmish on Monday the Fayette Artillery, of this city, lost Sergeant James Clarke, killed, four wounded, and seven horses killed. The body of Sergeant Clarke has been brought to Richmond.--Intelligence received at the War Department confirms our information about the condition of affairs at Suffolk.
