It baa been positively ascertained that Early

Join him.
Tho turmcrs living along tho river are again
Tanning oil' their stock, and a long string of
hones, belonging to pi I vat e parties, wera drircit
'through hire this morning boforo daylight,
towards FcnnsylvanH.
A large quantity of Government propir'y,
Which was stored in tho tnurkei-hoitse in this
place, was t iken out this nftern'on an 1 sent to
tho warehouses i.t the railro.id, to be placed upon

Tho tone of the I! obel press fur the pu.-twi.;!;

S large scale Is anticipate'!.
The excitement of Iho lest two duys l as not
subiddtd in the lent, and anxious crowds of
titlzens line the streets, eager to hear the litest
news from tha valley. Many of them spout a
sleepless i.Ii;ht iu older to leave at a moment's
notice. Most of the stores are closed and mer
chants have tho best portion of their jjools
packed op for removal.
Nothing is known here of Sheridan's where

glorious state of uticcrruinty as to his purposo.
The Oth Corps tuaiutuiti their hold on tho
"Weldon Railroad, and have thrown up such
works as make their position iuapivgnabl".
They most effectually destroyed the railroad
tome miles on lirst s rilJng the road, bnt It is
now thought that, having secured a forti'ied posi
tere, we shall occupy the ground permanently.
The line held by the ."-th Corps now forms our
extreme lt-ft, the Oth Corps having swung around
and formed a junction with the .0th Carps.
The Rebels seem to foel decidedly uneasy in
view of our lodgment upon the important Wel

eject us from the aniioyiug position. Yu.;tord.iy
morning heavy tiring was heard fro n that direc

The work on the Dut -h Cap Canal still pro
