B@- The advance of the grand Army
of the Potomac rs slow, but steady and
cafe.
This vast army, the greatest ever mar
shalled under one command in modern
times, stretches from Hancock, on the
North Potomac, to the Rappahannock,
distance of almost one hundred miles,
yet is SO situated that the entire army
can be concentrated in two days, ready
to give or receive battle.
The various passes of the Blue Ridge
have been occupied by our forces, and
the attempts of the rebels to dislodge us
have proved Intellectual, and they have
been compelled to fall back into the
Shenandoah Valley. ..as.a-
Ashbys Gap, the most important of
these passes, held by our forces, is just
sixty miles west of Washington City;
and if Lees army is still in and around
Winchester, Burnside's army has turned
his flank. $500
Slgel, pushing through the Bull Kun
Mountains by Thoroughfare Gap, is
doubtless aimingto reach Manassas Gap
and Front Royal, which will cut off that
line of retreat from Lee, and compel
him TO take the only remaining route Uia
Strasburg and Woodstock towards Staun-
ton. Unless Lee has already removed
large part of his army towards Rich
mond it will be utterly impossible to
retire his vast army by that single route.
Unless driven to utter desperation,
Lee will not risk general engagement
in the position now indicated, but he may
be so hemmed in that he will be forced
into fight. OF the result of that fight
we scarcely feel doubt.
Gen. McClellan's army, with the pres
tige Of recent victories, admirably equip
ped, well clothed and magnifcently Off
cered, will march on the half-starved,
halfclothed and dispirited rebels with
confidence and enthusiasm, with firm
faith in their ability to utterly annihilate
the Rebel army of the Potomac. The
great battle may be now raging. Co.
tainly nothing but precipitate retreat
can save Lee and his rebel rabble from
direlul defeat, and such retreat will be
scarcely less disastrous

MILITARY MovEMENTs.-We learn that
Colonel ShackeIford has been ordered to
Bowling Green with the battalion of his
regiment, which has for some time past
been at Henderson. This will leave Col
Foster in command at Henderson.
Col. Shackelford, we regret to learn,
has not yet recovered from his wound,
but is compelled to use crutehes.-
This has been a great drawback on the
service, as we are confident had this
gallant officer been able to have led his
brave regiment in person, Adam John
son and his gang Of thieves would have
had much harder time of it than they
have had
We hope the Colonel will soon be able
to take the saddle, as we are sure his
regiment is destined to make history for
the country, fame for itself, and honor
for the Union arms.
