Washington Btar says there is no truth in the current story that cavalry have crossed the Potomac into Maryland as tele graphed from here last evening The rumor grew out of the fact that the night before last ten or twelve rebel guerrillas crossed from Bluff over to Island probably de signing a fresh thieving expedition into Mary land but seeing that their motions were ob served from the north shore they prudently re turned into Loudon county before daylight This is the whole truth concerning the body of 5000 rebel cavalry crossing the river into Mary land over which the secessionists here were rubbing their bauds last night In the Porter court martial Gm Burnside was "examined on Thursday and testified having received unofficial telegrams from Gen Porter after that officer had joined the Army of Virginia relating to the operations of the for ces under General command He was satisfied that what was said therein of General character was strictly correct' Being asked whether the indisposition announced by many of General officers to serve under General Pope vm not chief ly caused by the withdrawal of the ar my from the Peninsula' he replied that almost every officer with whom he had conversed had fully sanctioned the wisdom of that 4 movement He had however no desire to make reflections on the capacity of General Pope Being further questioned in regard to General Porter hd stated that he knew that Porter had Immeaiately obeyed the orders re quiring him to Join his forces with Gen Pope but whether he had used any efforts beyond the duty to do so he was not aware He spoke also' of an incident that occurred on the banks of the Chickahominy in which General Porter displayed foresight While on the point of crossing that stream the wagon trains very much impeded the movements of the troops General Porter had ordered the wagons to pass on beyond and in doing so wai compelled to change the position of his corp General McClellan was at first displeas ed with this manequvre but after the army had croesed' fully assented to its judlcioua General Butterfield of General corps stated that he waa present when the order from Gen' Pope arrived directing Gen Pope to
