The enemy advancing up the Valley.

The latest advices we have from the Valley represent that the enemy had advanced his forces as high up as Hankinsville, nine miles below New Market, in Shenandoah county. Two regiments of infantry, one of cavalry, and a battery of artillery camped at that point on the night of the 6th. Our forces in the Valley had fallen back to Harrisonburg. Another report states that the Yankees have occupied Harrisonburg, but we think this doubtful.
