' We believe that the rebels retained possession of it at nightfall. j I The main engagement of yesterday, however, was that of Hooker's division with a considerable rebel force at Bristow station. j fI apj-ears that the movement of the enemy on Friday from the south bank bf the Bappafaan- jnock. via Jeffeisonton, in the direction of Little jWjsshington, was actually designed to throw the meet of the rebel army across the Kappahannock j&t the base of tbe Blue Ridge. This was done, and it is this morning ascertained here that it was yesterday morning probably for tbe most part maated at or near V hite Jr lains, in tho valley between tbe Blue Kidge and Bull Kun ranges, seven or nine miles northeast of Warrenton. ' I At an early! hour yesterday morning Hooker's division (doubtless despatched to tbat point by General rope on account of the affair there of the night Deiorej came up wiia a large reoei iorce about Bristow station, with whom he bad a heavy wngagement.'asting nearly all day. In the course of j it Hooker drove the enemy step by step back to the vicinity of Manassas Junction. Our toCal loss in killed, wounded and missing in the day's engagement there was about three hundred. Gen- Pope is said to regard the affair as a signal Union success. The twelfth Pennsylvania cavalry escaped or htda,ddltd, and came into Alexandria with few massing, about nine o'clock last night. They be hived badly. On Wednesday (yesterday) morn ling; ; early, Gen. Taylor's brigade, first, second, third, and fourth New Jersey volunteers, of Major Geieral Slocum's division of the Army of the pptomac, was sent by rail to Manassas. 11 Ipkl. . 1 J -3 T. . 1 1 T., V.J. .

A LIct a tokia, August 29. This raorhing, about eight o'clock, Stuart's rebel cavalry made a dash through Fairfax court House, on their way to Vienna, which Is about thirteen miles from Washington. The Union people of that section have all fled to the latter city. Mr. Hawkhurst, of Fairfax, and Clerk of the Circuit Court, called last night to say that he and all the Union men of Fairfax were compelled to leave on Wednesday, the rebels having poss'ession of the place. Yesierday he started to return to learn the fate of his family, but was met on the Way by citizens of Vienna, who wore escaping from that place, ven hundred cavalry having made a descent upon the place. Hawxhurat, naving concealed himself in a cornfield finally escaped to this city. Bat one Union manisleft in'Vienna,which is only twelve miles from Washington.

Tbe brigade continued its march, and on coming within the circle of forti fiicationsat tbe Junction, which they had no idea itiaa occupied, a heavy concentrated fire of artillery mas opened upon them from three different direc tions. Gen. Taylor had no artillery or eavalrv that of the division not having arrived from the peninsula, and was consequently obliged to retire out of range behind a sheltering ridge. j j At length seeing a large force of rebel cavalry njiakicg toward Bull Bun bridge, with the evident intention of intercepting Lis retreat, Gen. Taylor withdrew bis troops across Blackburn's Ford. To this point the enemy pursued him with horse artillery, pouring'canuter into his ranks with soma damage wounding among others, the Gen eral severely, and bis son lightly, and killing Nontenant Plume of theseconed New Jersey regi ment." A large portion of Taylor's New Jersey bri gade was captured at Fairfax station by the rebel cavalry, some five hundred of whom were seen between Centreville and Fairfax Court House on Thursday noon, and are supposed to be the same who made the above capture. INCIDENTS, RUMOBSjac. A letter in the Baltimore American says ; General McClellan has visited Washington, and accepted the. command of the army of Vir ginia. j It is afeo said that the rebels have captured two out of four New Jersey regiments stationed at Centreville. It is feared that General Pope has been cut off from Washington. . i A company of the one hundred and fifth Penn sylvania, which was at Bristow's station, were all reported captured by the enemy with, the excep tion of one man.
