1lG auylncc OF our IlEni Willy ou.tuG Eo-
tomac, in the movement Of Gen Banks col
umn, which took place on Monday last, is
the first spring token Of 4 movement in that
quarter of the GRIND Army. As eur dis
| patches have already stated, the advance Of |
| Gen. Banks column, consisting Of the 2aSth !
Pennsylvania Regiment, passed oyer the Po~ |
tomac from Sandy Hook to Harpcr's Ferry, ]
be fore daybreak on Monday morning, by =
| rope ferry, and took possession Of the town.
| Next day ample provision for transporting
troops over The river vas provided, and or
| advanced guard considerably reinforced.
| Bolivar and Charlestown and considerable
portion of tile country On both banks Of the
Shenandoah are now occupied by our troops.
Except about twenty Of the enemy which
we're captured, they all retired on the ap-
preach Of our arms.
This is the third atcmpt Of a movement SIM
liar in kind. The first, in October Last is sadly
cnronieled In the annals Of this war in the
melancholy misadventurc at Balls Bluff some
twenty miles below Harpcrs Ferry. Before
Gen. Stone is released from his present trouh-.
| les it is to be hoped that the responsibility o.
this SD fai1ure will hare been permanently
located. The second movement is the still
recent one that will stand marked in the
history Of the war as The retreat tapm Bath to
