Ewelrs corps Cut Off from Lees Army.

NEW 1OKk, July 3.
The Harper's Ferry correspondent of the
Philadelphia Inquirer, dated the 9th, states
that the results OF the engagement on Thurs
day last at Front Royal, as reported here, are
highly encouraging. The intention was TO cut
Lees army in two, and It succeeded to the ex-
tent that Ewel's corps is reported TO be entirely
cut oil from communication with Lee, and its
capture or dispersion is almost certain.
1t is reported that Winchester is now occu-
pied by only small force OF Whites rebel
cavalry. The town will doubtless be in our
possession again in few days.
The citizens who came in to-day from the
vicinity OF Martinsburg report no armed rebels
in their neighborhood except few Struggling

A Determined Soldier.

A story Is told Of private Of the 18th
New Jersey Regiment, William Lambert
by name, which shows that there is still
something Of the old blood in the veins Of
yerseymen. AT the battle Of Chancellor
vile. Lambert, finding that his own req
iment was not going into the fight, in his
anxiety to meet the enemy, joined an In
diana regiment, and fought with them
bravely until they were ordered to the
rear. About this time his own regiment
was ordered forward, when he at once
took his place in the ranks and advanced
again TO the conflict. At the close ofthe
engagement, however, ,he was among the
missing, and nothing was seen or heard
OF him until the next day, when he ap.
pearod at the regimental hospital, without
either hat, coat, vest or shol 5, and with
one arm gone, merely observing that the
i" rebels had given him n devil Of rap"
He had been wounded and taken to a
hospital near the battle field, had his arm
amputated, and then dsdaining TO be idle,
walked FIVE miles to his own hospital.
Upon tl& offer Of transportation, IN an
ambulance, to Aqua Greek, he declined,
saying that he would ride beside the dri-
yer, so that he could "scc the country"
