WASHINGTON, Aug 1.-The war depart
ment has received the following direct from
Gen. Rosencranz =
"Gen. Cox reached Ganley's Bridge July
goth Wise fled without fighting He de-
stroyed the bridge to prevent pursuit. We
have captured one thousand muskets and
several kegs of cannon powder. Many of the
inhabitants in that section, hitherto strong
secessionists, now denounce Wise for his
wanton destruction of property, and they are
abandoning him and his cause. His western
Virginia troops are rapidly disbanding. The
Kanawaha valley is now free of rebels"
Lieut.. Berger of seventh regiment, who
is from Bulltown, Va, July 28th, says that
Gen Tyler reached there that day. He found
that the rebels had fled, they having heard that
Gen. Cox had driven Wise from Charlestown.
Gen. Tyler considered Wise completely sur.

BosToN, Aug. 1.-The eighth regiment was
mustered out OF service this afternoon, and the
companies, several of which belong in Essex
county, departed for home, where cordial
public reception will be given them by the
local authorities Col. Kinks made a feeling
and eloquent speech to the regiment before
separating.
Shortly before five o'clock the sixth reg
ment arrived, having made long stop in
Worcester, where salute of cannon and an
enthusiastic reception by the people and city
authorities, and bountiful dinner, welcomed
the soldiers. At the Boston depot the regi-
ment were met by the second battalion, and
escorted to the common. Much interest has
been felt in this regiment, as they were among
the very first in the country to start for the
protection of Washington, and their reception
was of that marked, heartfelt character which
both the gallant sixth and the citizens of Bos-
ton will long remember. After partakng Of a
collation. the regiment was furnished with
quarters in the city for the night, and will
leave for Lowell to morrow. 1t is understood
that they will be mustered out OF service in
the morning.
