FROM THE VALLEY.

Correspondence Philadelphia Inquirer.]
HARPRR's FERRY, Sept. Give have taken
$3.50 prisoners III the field, and with the rebel
deserters, and the capture of a large number Of
sick and wounded In Winchester, the entire
rebel loss will be about 6,0G0. 1t is impos-
sible as yet to form accurately an estimate Of
our losses, but as near as can be ascertained
they will not reach higher figure than 1900
killed, wounded and missing. The number Of
our prisoners captured by the enemy is a mere
bagatelle; they being on the retreat from the
commencement OF the fight, had little time and
less inclination to make captures.
Inc rebel prisoners taken were SO numerous
send them to Harpsr's Ferry. 1t would not
do to send them without a sufficient guard; the
Ruerrtllas lnfestIng the country might free
them, and to guard them sufficiently would
take more men than Sheridan feels disposed to
spare at pressn-.
None Of our wounded have as yet been sent
to the Ferry They are well cared for in the
numerous military hospitals OF Winchester
which we will now hold permanently.
Immense trains are now on their way to the
front with eight days rations for the army,
which would Indicate steady pursuit OF the
enemy up the valley. These trains are well
guarded, 10 protect them against guerrillas. It
is thought that unless Early receives heavy
retnforcements. aud that speedily, his army,
which has been for SO long a time past a terri
bic bug-b to the people OF Pennsylvania
and M Maryland will be almost annihilated.
Our forces forces now occupy Cedar Greek
Hid, eleven and a half miles from Strasburg,
and about forty three miles from Harper's
Ferry.
The base Of supplies for the army will soon
be transferred to Martinsburg.
A construction train left Harper's Ferry this
morning to repair the railroad, which will
probably take four or five days. Goods Of all
kinds are being got in readiness to leave the
Ferry as soon as the road is repaired.
Firing could be family heard this morning at
Harper's Ferry. During the fight Of Monday,
both artillery and volleys of musketry could be
distinctly heard here all day.
