Gloriously Ewell steps out in the shoes
Of the immortal Jackson. The following
are Northern accounts, and hey are good
enough for us. What will it be when we
have our own? The Gazette takes these
dispatches frou the SttLouis Republican
Of the 10th:
New York, June l5-The Times say<
editorially that information reached this
city yesterday from Washington, that
Lees army, 10000 strong, was on this
side Of the Rappahanrock, marching
northward, and Hoiker's army was hast
ening north 10 prevent bis advance Lee.
before the end Of last week, crossed BY
the fords above fredericksburg, aud was
apparently pushing for the Orange and
Alexandra X. X. BY Sunday Hooker s
whole army was on the northward march,
following that day line between War
renton and Catlett's station. All our
commissary stores have been embarked
from Aquia Creek. Lee has been joined
by large detachments from North Caro-
lima aud the Blackwater, aud all his cav
airy have been massed on the sIuth fork
Of the Rappahannock.
Longstreet's corps, lately at Culpepper
have doubtless been joined to Lee. Hook
er's force cannot be inferior to Lees, and
er4r army has recently been heavily rein
forced from the Nansemond, Peninsula
and elsewhere No official or semi official
indications Of these movements have boer
received from Washington.
The Times says these accounts we have
obtained from other sources, but there
seems to be an agreement that our army
and that Of the rebels are both on the
move, aud so closely together, that they
can hardly avoid collision 5000.
Washington, June l5-The following .
is supposed to be the rebel military situa
lion, derived from very responsible
,ources:-As long ago as Que week, Sun
day and Monday last, Gems. Longstreet
and Ewell passed through Culpepper,
heading toward the Shenandoah Valley.
The dispatches in the morning papers
speak oply Of EwelPs corps, and estimate
il at from 10000 to $4,000 men, as hav-
ing made their appearance in front Of
MilIoy. Lopgstreet's corps is also to be
taken into account, as while Ewell was
engaging Milroy at Winchester, Long
stree was moving across the Winchester
and Potomac railroad to Martinsburc.
On Sunday morning Gen. McReynolds
was attacked at Berryville, IL miles east
Of Winchester, by an overpowering force
of the enemy urder Gen. Trimtle, and
fell back to Winchester. and had fierce
combat on the same day. About the
same day Winchester was attacked on the
South by Ewell, aud Milroy en- that day
repulsed Ewell sharply. lie was also at
lacked on yesterday, and has fallen back
to Harper's Ferry.
A force Of the enemy, apparently the
same that moved on Berryville, advanced
to Martiosburg, and at 4 p. m. yesterday
demanded the surrender of the place,
giving half an hour for the women and
children to leave town. Gen. Tyler re-
fused to surrender, and an artillery fight
followed. It is evident, however, that the
Confederates have received sufficient
check in their advance to give us an op.
portunity of heading them of in their for.
ward movement and invasion, and inter
rupting their retreat.
