WESTERN VIRGINIA.
The Campaign Closing With Barren

IFrom the Wheeling 1nteligencer, 19th.1
It appears to be the general belief that the
campaign in. Western Virginia is virtually
ended. Roaecrans has fallen back and taken
a position on the Charleston and Lewisburg
turnpike, short distance above the junction
appears also to have retired toWnrds Lewis
burg. The reads are represented as having
become 80 bad in that region as to render
military transportation next to impossible,
and that Of course renders any important
army movement fmpracticable for time,
at least. There ought to be month OF
gccd weather yet, however, and in that time
Something might and ought to be done, for
re take It that the bad 1oads at this juncture
are occasioned by the heavy rains week or
two back, aud viii soon be sohd again. The
real difficulty, we think, ts that Rosecrans' di-
vision Is not strong enough to act on the often
siEe, and It is not regarded judiclous to ad
vance too far into sn eneny's country at this
season Of the year, when rain storm might
at any time stop transportation, without 8
force sufficient to meet any that might be
brought against It.

Us no more this winter. Long before next
spring they Will he needed somewhere else.
IEeir commando rs are 1oT quarreling among
themselves about who is to blame for their dis
