We have no very late news from the

comes to IA from the Potomac is the
battle at Winchester in which our for
ces under Gen. Shields met and defeated
the rebels under Gen. Jackson with
great slaughter. At Island No. 10 but
little has yet been effected by our for.
ces. We can only use cannon and those
too at no very good advantage. Owing
TO the high water and current Of the
river, it is not considered safe to pass
down and engage them with our gun.
boats. The infantry and cavalry cannot
be brought into action, and it is now
settled that a new mode of attack must
be adopted to dislodge them. It would
not be in the least strange if we should
hear in . few days of,heir being attacked
from the rear by some Of our forces on
the Tennessee side Of the river. where
tho probable majority of the rebel land
forces are now situated. Let it come.
We must not give UP the taking Of that
