have sent nearly their whole baggage down the
valley; which indicates preparations on their
part to skedaddie in the same direction If
Mcclellan elects to threaten them seriously
there by crossing the river; rs there il no gap
west Of the Front Royal Gap through which
they can march with sufficient CELEBRITY to enable
them to dispute with us the possession OF the
