STIRRING RUMORS OF MILITARY MOVE MENTS 13 VIRGINIA. [By the Peoples' Telegraph Line, No. 411 Chest nut street.] WASHINGTON, April 21.—The city is alive with military rumors, conjectures, and specu lations, of which the greater portion have probably no foundation in fact ; while the publication of the facts known to be true would not be proper at this time. WASHINGTON, April 22.—[Special to the Times.] General Grant left here for the front to-day, and General Burnside went by special boat to Fortress Monroe. It is understood that the recent development of the intentions of the rebels renders an early movement of the. Army of the Potomac highly probable. Such an event will be in accordance with the expressed desire of Mr. Lincoln and other leading men here. Without going into details, it is enough to say that the Spring has not been idled away, and that preparations for the impending cam paign have been equal to the importance of the work to be accomplished. There is little doubt that the next thirty days will bring about a great change of some kind in military affairs. The recent order of Gen. Grant banishing sutlers from the army, rids it of over;twentf eight hundred supernumeraries. The War Department has given orders for an addition of 15,000 beds to the present hospital accommodations here. All patients able to bear removal are to be sent North at once. The report gains credence here among mili tary men that Lee has sent part of his army into the Shenandoah Valley, with a view of compelling Grant to divide his army by sending a force in pursuit. NEw YORK, April 22.—Current rumors on the street report both Lee's and Meade's armies in motion, manoeuvring for the advantage pre liminary to a general battle. It is thought that Lee will again attempt to cross the Potomac. If so, he will probably encounter the Union armies in a different manner from the former occasions. AN INSIDE VIEW OF TEE REBELLION. NEW Yoax, April 22.—Advices from North Carolina to the 17th inst. have been received. The Governor's council convened at Raleigh declined calling the Legislature together,in ex tra session, fearing it would array the State against the Confederacy. The Henderson, (N. C.) Times, published in the Western part of the State, advises the peo ple to keep out of the Confederate army, and to stay at home and defend themselves. The Raleigh Progress says the people are starving in the Hotels at $5O a day, and that many of the best families are on half rations. The Wilmington Jiurnal is gloomy at the prospect of affairs in the Confederacy and de plores the sad lack of food and the bad condi. tion of the coming crop. The Fayetteville Carolinian laments the high prices and lack of food, but takes comfort in the announcement of several hundred Spring field rifles manufactured daily in the armory there for the Confederate service. The news of the rebel attack on Plymouth is .confirmed, but no particulars are received. REBEL RAMS AND TORPEDOES. [By the People's Line, Office No. 411 Chestnut st.

BELLIGERENT SHIPS IN FRENCH PORTS.

Since then these principles have been applied practically troth in the colonies and in the ports of the mother country. 2eNevertheless, the continuation of hostilities having led the belligerents to carry the theatre of maritime hostilities into the waters bordering the neutral States of Europe, and having, further. more, led them to seek in our ports the means of repair and refitting, the Imperial Government judges it useful to recall to your recollection the rules to be observed for the maintenance of its neu trality, conformably to public law and the tradi tions of the French navy, and to determine conse quently the treatment which should be applied. Without distinction of flag, to the vessels of the belligerents. You will, therefore, have to hold to the strict execution of the following dispositions. 1. No vessel-of-war or belligerent corsair will be admitted to reins= More than 24 hours in a port of the French Empire, or of any of the French colonies, or in the adjacent waters, saving in case of a forced relaxation of this rule by reason of stress of weather or exhaustion of the supplies necessary for the security of navigation 2. In no case can a belligerent make use of a French port with warlike intent, or to take on sup. plies of arms or munitions of war, or to undertake, under pretextof repairs, any work having for its object the strengthening of the owarlike power of the vessel. 3. You areprohibited from furnishin war ves sel or belligerent cruiser with supplie , outfit or means of repair, beyond such as are ecessary for the security of ts voyage. 4. No war vessel or belligerent cruiser, permit. ted to repair and take in supplies in a French port, will be allowed to prolong its stay beyond a period of twenty-four hours alter its supplies shall have been embarked and its repairs completed, saving in the case hereinafter provided for. Whenever war vessels, cruisers or commercial vessels of the two belligerent parties shall chance to meet in a French port, there shall be an interval, which must not be less than twenty-four hours, between the departure of any vessel of one of the bellige rents and the subsequent departure of any war yes- . sel or cruiser of the other belligerent. The delay, in case of need, will be extended on the order of the maritime authority, and will continue as long as may be necessary. It will be your duty to communicate these pr visions to all ships of either belligerent preSenting themselves in the harbors, roadsteads or waters, subject to your commands. COUNT P. DE CHESSELOUP-LAUBAT. PERSONAL. Colonel William Wilson, of the old New. York 6th regiment, of Fort Pickens and Pen sacola fame, has just received from GoveThor Seymour a commission as Colonel of the 69th New York regiment. The Washington correspondent of the Herald writes that Major-General Crittenden has been assigned to an important command, and ordered to report to General Burnside. General Crit tenden has been relieved by the court martial upon his case from any imputation whatever. The finding not only exculpated him entirely, but showed that he had done his duty and his whole duty. His transfer to the Army of the East is a part of_ the programme of General Grant to infuse into the Eastern army some of the vim and confidence of success that has al ways attended the Western army while under his command.

In May last the boy was riding on the front platform of one of the cars of Company defendant, and when near his place of destination, the driver not stopping the car, but going on faster as the boy was leaving, the boy fell from the platform and the car passed over his right arm and so injured it as to require amputation. The defence was that the boy lett the inside of the car and took his position on the p's.tform nesr the driver. When near his place fur getting off he stated to the driver his intention of leaving, and the driver then requested him to hold on until he got to-the crossing where he would stop the car. The boy, however, chose to jump of while the driver was applying the brake. In doing so he jumped with his back to the horses, and when he touched the ground he fell and his arm went under the car.

THE NEW YORK STATE MILITIA ALBANY, N. Y., April 22d.—Exaggerated rumors prevail in reference to a call of the War Department upon Governor Seymour for the State Militia. These rumors grow out of intelligenee re ceived here from the War Department that the State troops will be received by General Dix for guard and other special duty in and around the harbor and forts of New York, during the absence of the volunteer forces recently sta tioned there. The Governor has tendered to the War De partment the use of the militia regiments for the defence of the forts around New York and elsewhere on the frontiers. He thinks this desirable,as well to relieve the troops detained within the State for such pur poses, as to afford the National Guard desira ble opportunity for drill and practice.
