'thss side Of Ha1psI's Ferry, whcre 1t will, it is
supposed, CROSS the Potomac and pass over to
The "sacred soil' Of Virginia, to aid in cutting

: Astrong force Of District militia aud com
1any Of cavalry also marched this morning
towards Leesburgh or Edwards Ferry, the

auxiliary forces when an attack upon the rebel
position at Ha1per's Ferry Is made, They have
four pieces ofarti1lery.
