Fremont Daily Journal

The Herald's Washington dispatch says that it is not impossible that a forward movement will take place during the next 24 hours. The first move will be upon Fairfax Court House. Three regiments, probably the Fire Zouaves, the Michigan regiment and the 5th Massachusetts, will form the advancing column, to be supported in case of necessity by the entire remaining force on the Virginia side, the number and strength of which will be increased by several regiments on this side, that have received orders to hold themselves in readiness, and are expected to cross the river either to-night or to-morrow. The Railroad and telegraph between that point and Alexandria will be put in working order.

Gen. McDowell does not expect the rebels to make a stand at the Court House. He is said to have received positive intelligence to-day that the rebels there had received orders not to offer any resistance in case the federal troops should advance, but to fall back on Manassas Junction.
