The AdYance of0eneral Huntar.

Nav YoRK, June ssh.-A Herald corres-
pondent says Of Hunter'a advance:
Immediately on assuming command, he
issued orders for instant preparation to
move. Each knapsack was TO have one
hundred rounds OF ammunition, four
pounds Of hard bread, to last teu days, ten
rations Of coffee, sugar and salt, aud one
pair of shoes aud socks, and nothing else.
Cattle, sheep and hoRe, aud, if necessary,
horses aud mules, will be slaughtered for
food.
Under these orders his little army set
ont upon its expedition, to perform IIS part
in Grants grand combination. 1t was not
only to march, but eight. II fght could be
found.
1t appears that sigel on the 9TH of May
sent out party Of four hundred New York
and PennsylvaniH cavalry to overtake q
raidiug party under McNsill. The enemy
were met at Moorfield, aud Q fight eusued,
in which our troops drove the rebels
They were reinforced, however, and came
back at least 1900 strong. Charges were
made by both parties, aud in the last one
the rebels fell back. But It was deemed
useless TO contend against such unequal
numbers, aud our troops retreated, finally
reaching Romney and Springfield, after
being obliged to destroy the whole Of their
train.
When Hunter started the rebels attempt.
ed to check his advance by making q stand
at creek near Harrisonburg. The rebels,
however, were driven, and our troops
moved to Harrisonburg.

at the bow. From 40 10 so passengers are
supposed to be lost. Such a. escaped

only about sig weeks since, and was fur.
nished and supplied 10 splendid style. Hel
hull Is burned TO the water'sl edge. No

There were about $50 passengers, but

Hoods Retreat.

At tho latest reports, Hood had not vet
crossed tho Tennessee, but was making
every effort TO reach it near tho mouth of
Elk river, some twenty miles below Deca-
tur The roads arc very nearly impnssablo,
and Hood, having the start, is thus enabled
to maintain it, and will probably get off in
much better order than no would havo
done had tho roads been better. But his
losses already arc beyond parallel the most
fearful recorded in the annals of tho war.
In killed, wounded and taken prisoners he
lost in the battles before Nashville over
$4,000 men. His loss at Franklin was
about 600, making total loss of 26 600
or nearly two-thirds of his entiro force
since ho entered Tennessee. What few
troops he has left arc so utterly dispiritod
by defeat and failure, so weak in numbers,
so utterly deficient in organization, that
they arc worth almost nothing. For all
practical purposes Hoods army is abso-
iutoly snnihilated.-Cirre. Leader.
