The battle Of South Mountain left Gen. Burnside,
according to Gen. Mcclellan, in position command
ing the road TO Hagersiown, q road by which re-
endorsements must come to that part of the enemys
line which Gen. Franklin is attacking The Rebels
only chance to escape would seem to be by the
Antietam Ford, a few miles above Harper's Ferry.
The other fords below it and the bridge, still I'M
Injured at last accounts are said TO be commanded
by Col. Mess cannon.
If this is So and il COL Miles is able to sustain bis
position, the whole Rebel force this side of the Po-
tomac ought to be captured II, on the other hand,
Col Miles should he forced to surrender, large part
Of the Rebel army may be able to make Its escape
at the fords under the protection of the guns which
they would thus capture. Ethe enemy lie defeated
lie viii pay the just penalty Of dividing bis forces by
the river. lie attempted too mach to borrow from
Sir. JEFF Dayiss inaugural, and relied too implicitly
upon tho usual slowpess Of army movements.
Tie corps Of Gen. Sumner and the two divisions OF
Gen. Keys corps under command Of Gen. Couch,
were not engaged in Saturdays fight.
The corps OF Gen. Sumner and that of Gen. Banks,
which is now commanded by Gen. Sedgwick, were
not in the action. That Of Gen. Fi1 John Porter
marched through Frederick at early hour yester-
day morning and WAS to have joined the attacking
forces in the course of the day. in sufficient
doubtless to have assisted in the fight today the
guns Of which were heard from sunrse by residents
a few miles from Washington.
1t is supposed TINT the enemy in front Of Gen.
Burnside was re-enforced to-day bya division from
Iagerstown, and Rebel prisoners affirm that Beau
regard was expected with 10000 fresh troops from
Gordonsville to-day-seeminsly an improbable
story, which has, however, been repeated from
mouth to mouth here for two or three days.
Among the flying reports from Frederick Is one to
the eject that Longstreet with 1000 men, surren-
dered to-day, and that Gems. Couch and Sykes Lad
intercepted the enemy falling back to HageEstown
from before Burnside.
