He has, therefore, tried to keep them in doubt as to his movements, by slowly moving about on either side of the Potomac at Harper's Ferry and Williamsport, and they, understanding his game, have outflanked him by this raid into the Cumberland Valley, by the circuitous route of Hancock. Even had the Pennsylvania militia remained at Hagerstown and Greencastle they could not have prevented this incursion, for, as will be seen by reference to the map, the enemy have turned both points via Hancock; Mercersburg, and St. Thomas and thus our militia would have had their communications cut off, and been obliged to advance and fight the rebels at once to insure their own safety.

There is no doubt whatever of their being in Mercersburg. They will certainly give us a call to-night. We had the rumor at 4 o'clock,Hancock; and, marching rapidly northward into Pennsylvania, crossed the mountains into the into the rich and prosperous Cumberland Valley, captured Mercersburg, St. Thomas, and finally the flourishing town of Chambersburg.

Had he moved his army suddenly and in mass, by any particular route, say Harper's Ferry or Williamsport for example, the rebel army would have recrossed into Maryland at some other point, above or below, and thus forced McClellan to return and defend Washington and Baltimore. He could not go above the rebel line to advance, for then the enemy would be between him and the great points of defences. Washingtonf Virginia and a graduate of West Point.
