prom the y. Y. Timss)
The battle below Winchester, so conf
dent has been the belief that the rebels had
withdrawn to line very much further to
the southwark. has taken the public by
surprise. Yet if the theory We have pro-
pounded in these columns be sound, there
was no occasion for establishment. We
have given our reasons for believing that
the rebels have no idea of making a stand
anywhere in Virginia. The freedom with
which the Richmond papers have Argued
the value Of GordOnsVilIe as defensive
position was enough 10 excite q suspicion
that GOrdonsTille was not to be defended I;
but that it was only sought by the rebels
when Manassas was evacuated, as an ELI
gible poiut Of departure for bAttle-felds in
the distant South. Else as u better line of
iuterPositiou between Washington and
Richmond, Aqua Greek and Fredericks-
burgh would have been chosen. A few
miles additional of railroad transportation
would have carried men aud artillery TO
those more advantageous positions. A re-
port which In some degree confirms this
view, and which comes from a source en-
titled to credit, represents Gen. GustaVus
Smith, with sixty thousand men, as having
passed over the Tennessee road for the
OuthWest within the last few days.
movement of this kind was endangeF-
ed from two quarters. The force of Gen.
Rosecrans might throw itself upon the
Tennessee route in Western Virginia, and
thus separate the rebel line of commune
cation. 1t was important, therefore, to re-
intorce temporarily the army beyond the
Alleghanies, until the great retreat should
have been effected; aud it was indispensa-
bic to this end that no advance OF Gen.
Shields should cut OF the Virginia Cen
trail road, which connects GordonsVille
with the Kanawha region. Hence, 10 pro.
tect the rebel movement, large body has
been LEFT TO hold Gen. Shields in check.
1t will be remembered that simultaneous
with what we now know TO be the date OF
departure from Manassas, great display
of force was made along the front of our
lines on the Potomac, of course designed
to cover the retreat.
While, therefore, the rebels have afford
ed an opportunity for Gen. Shields and
the brave fellows of his division to show
their intrepidity aud sterling soldiership
We fear it is the last opportunity of the
sort our forces will enjoy on this side Of
the Gulf States. There is daily evidence
that no new contest of any magnitude will
be risked until their scattered troops have
been massed under the leadership Of Davis
himself, on the parallel of Charleston and
Memphis.
