The Washington Star of this evening
says that Gen Burnside has already ad-
vanced down along the eastern base of
the Blue Ridge, and formed a practical
BILE junction with Gen. Sigel, their lines
of pickets joining.
The withdraw of Walkers rebel force
from Upperville was doubtless in conse
quence Of the rapidty Of Gen. Burnside $
movement in that direction. We do not
believe he has gone in The direction of
Snickersville, as in that event lie would
be rushing into the Jaws If McClcllan's
army, but rather across the ridge back of
IpperylIi- on the Alexandra and Win
chester turnpike.
The rebels continue to occupy the
ridge between Harper's Ferry and Win
chester, on which Lee posted his army
after crossing into Virginia. We believe
he is moving as fast as he can, as Burn
side and Fitz John Porter have already
defeated his probable scheme Of attempt
ing to surprise Sigel To cover it prompt
ly he vii! have TO move back towards
