An Unpicasant Suspense.

The storm OF Saturday afternoon disarranged
the telegraph wires that 're without news
later than the noon dispatches of that day The
news then received confirmed the previous re
ports OF the evacuation of Corinih The reason of
that movement on the part of the rebels does
not appear, nor are we advised whittier
they are gone. The evacuation of that
stronghold must have been in progress for some
days before the advance of our forces. 1t is not
crelitable to our commander of that division of
the army that he was ignorant of the movements
OF the enemy, while his plans must have
been known to them. The strategy of
BEAURrGARD must command praise, while
the lack of skill in our Generals ere
ates dis,rust. From private sources OF infor
nation learn that the rebel forces in the
neighborhOOd OF Richmond number $50, 900
IL was reported that battle would come of
there on Saturday or Yesterday. but the failure
OF the telegraph wires keeps us in suspense in
that regard. We only hope that no news is
good news, and we must patiently wait upon the
elements 10 be relieved from the unpleasant sus
pcnse caused by the failure of the wires.

the Seventh District of Pennsylvania the other

VIC DOWeIi and Jackson

We have the intelligence that Ger. Mcdowell
with his army has passed through Manassas Gap,
and is now in the valley OF the Shenandoah, at u
point sufficiently far south to intercept jackson
retreat. Unless jackson used his means OF
transportation very rapidly he will be caught by
Mcdowell. 1t may be however that the willy
rebel will cross from the direction of Winchester
70 the west of the mountains avoiding the She
nandoah, and fall upon Fremont's column in the
kanawha region A few DAYS however will
evolve all these movements FremOnt's force is
not very large one, and is remote from rein
forcements. Mcdowell may, by following the
route of the Manassas Gap railroad, intercept
jackson even on that route. But by going that
distance he will leave Washington and the Sec
rotary Of War almost wholly unprotected -
