Phil ADELPHIA, June 15-A dispatch from

troops were then passing there in retreat from
Hagerstown to Chambersburg.
Hagerstown had been evacuated, and all the
stores and rolling stock Of the railroad re-

Rumor fixes the rebel force at ten thousand.
which is probably an exaggeration.
PHILADELPHIA, June l5.-The Evening

dispatches received at the Pennsylvania Rail-

A dispatch to-day from Bolton Station
on the Northern Central Railroad says
that Gen. Lyles had retreated from Martins

force at Winchester had probably been cap

The dispatch adds that the danger is great,

THE SITUATION.

We have the following Information in regard
to the new movement of Lee: As long ago g..
Sunday and Monday last yesterday and to- day
week. Longstreet and EwelI passed through
Culpeper, headed towards the Shenandoah
Valley, marching by two different routes. The
dispatches in the morning papers speak only
OF Ewells corps, estimated at from ten to
eighteen thousand men, as having made their
appearance in front of Milroy.
We take it that Longstreet's corps is also to
be taken into account as increasing the Con-
federate force there, and we shall not be sur
prised to hear that while Ewell was engaging
Milroy st Winchester Longstreet was moving
towards Martnsburg, with a view to bagging
by sudden movement both Milroy's force at
Winchester, 10000 men, McReynolds' at
Berryville (3,OO0} and Tyler's at Martins burg,
la,OOO)
On Saturday morning Gen. McRpynolds
wa, attacked at Berryyille III miles east of
Winchester on the Washington and Winches-
ter tu-npike) by an oyer-powering force of the
enemy under Gen. TriInble and tell back to
Winchester after fierce combat On the same
day and about the same time Winchester was
attacked en- the south by EweIl and Milrey on
that day repulsed Ewell sharply and, it is said,
reported that he could hold out until reinforce
merts reached him.
He was also attacked on yesterday, but as
his communications with Harper Ferry are
cut il is not known what were the results At
the worst lie could fall back on Romuey, to the
northwest of Winchester, and south of Cum
berIand.
A force OF the enemy, apparently of the same
that moved on Berryvilie. advanced to Mar
tlnsburg, and at p m. yesterday demanded
the surrender OF that place, giving halt an hour
Tor the women and children to leave the town
Gen. 7. Ter refused to surrender, and an artii-
iery fight followed, rs 10 the results of which,
from the interruption Of comm unication, we
nave no report
1t L evident. however, that the Confedera ties
nave received sufficient check in their advance
10 give opportunity of heading them of In
their forward movement of Invasion, and of
iNtercepting their retreat, measures to which
effect are now being carried out with due en-.
ergy.
The stirring proclamation OF the President in
saother column shows that the Government
is fully preparing itself 20 meet the exigencies
OF the case.
