IMPORTANT FROM WINCHESTER.
OCCUPIED BY UNION TROOPS.
AFFAIRS At WINCHESTER.

We have some interesting intelligence from
q gentleman who arrived here this morning
from Winchester, which is once more under
the nag Of the Union.-Raltimors american,
26M. .r .... ... .HH4t "a
About the 18th instant, the rebel forces I'M
der General Jones, numbering about {, 500 men,
infantry and cavalry, took their departure from
Winchester, leaving only a cavalry picket In
the town. They moved up the Valley towards
Woodstock, where they were, at the last ac =
counts, encamped. Among this force was the
Maryland rebel brigade, and we learn that they
left terrible bad character in Winchester, hays
ing broken open and robbed the stores before
they lcft. Their extreme destitute condition
was, however, some excuse for their dcpreda-
lions. The people being almost In starving
condition, the departure of the rebels was hailed
with JOY, even by the rebel sympathizers.
On Monday morning last, the rebel pickets,
which had been left behind, suddenly disap-
peared, having got wind Of the approach Of
some Union troops. They, however, did moi
let the people know the cause Of their departure.
The next morning, Tuesday, at O'Clock, a
force Of 500 cavalry, under command OF Col
Keys, being part of Gen. Kelley's command,
arrived at Winchester, from Romney, and took
possession Of the city, TO the great joy of the
Unionists, as well as the qualification of the
rebel sympathizers, who were ready to welcome
any one who would bring with them the neces-
cessaries of life. Sugar was selling at rs cents
perpoundj salt, VI per pound; butter, 81 so;
pepper, $5 per pound; molasses, Sc per gallon;
unbleached cotton, 81 per yard, and cotton
cloth, Sl.50, only used for lining collins. SUIT
lers were arriving with stocks Of the necessa-
res, and prices were rapidly falling when our
informant left. Poor Winchester, II presents a
sorry aspect, under the various changes II has
experienced, and Its future is by no means es-
tablished yet.
The railroad from Charlestown TO Winehes.
ter was entirely destroyed by the rebels, who
burnt the bridges, destroyed all the ties, and
carried of the railroad iron towards Stanton.
The construction Of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad was progressing rapidly towards
Harper's Ferry, and a arge force is engaged.
good portion Of the railroad iron has been
Strengthened by an ingenious machine, and re,

The DIPLOMATIC CoRPs.-During the thus
called crisis Of the Cabinet, the Star was i'm
posed upon by the stupid story, that the foreign
diplomats unanimously approved the resistance
made by the President to reorganization OF
tho Cabinet, and that they considered the
resignation of Mr.. Seward as blow to our
peaceful relations with the various European
Governments.
On the best and surest authority, We affirm
that the foreign diplomats, above all those
representing Governments more directly in.
terested In the eyolutions of our affairs, be-
hayed and behave with the utmost discretion;
and that none Of the diplomats uttered shadow
Of preference for this or that person for the
Cabinet.
II the diplomats expressed any opinion what.
ever, it was general one concerning the logical
necessity Of homogeneous Cabinet, and Of
unity Of purpose and unity in the selection OF
ways to reach such purpose.

In this court yesterday Gen. Porter presented

tion OF the position selected by the latter to give

to have obeyed all orders, and to have pushed
on from Warrenton to BrIstow with all possI-
bic speed. --..I. s#.a..a r#a usrH H.
