Averil. consisting of two regiments of infan-
try, 400 cavalry and battery of six guns,
force numbering 400 in all, under command
of Col. Geo. ID. Wells of Saith Massachusetts
infantry, has returned to Harper's Ferry with
out the loss of man. After penetrating to
Harrisonburg, where Averill had accomplished
his work, and after Col. Wells had accomplish
ed his diversion strictly according to orders
he found himself confronted by from 1000 to
10000 Of Lees forces, with Gen. Rosser's brig
ade and part OF Stuart's cavalry in his rear at
Front Royal. BY clever strategy and forced
marches he escaped the former and avoided
the latter forces, and reached his post with his
