We think it not at all improbable that the whole Valley is now in our possession; but whether our army has crossed into Maryland is a question which yet admits of some doubt. If it has, sufficient time has not elapsed for the news to reach Richmond in an authentic form. The rumor of the killing of Gen. Smith in the assault upon the e
