Bulk move in ssh command

Hi All,

I am getting an problem. I am using ssh command in shell script to copy all files from a dir to another.
Code:
find /home/dee -type f ! -newer /tmp/new | xargs -i cp {} /home/past{}

This works fine but when I replace cp with mv, nothing happens! not even error.

Can anybody please help! Thanks

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
