Loring, with a strong column, will re-appear at Laurel Hill and Rich Mountain, and push the enemy back to Grafton, to Whoeling, and into Pennsylvania or Ohio. Patterson will be superseded in Jefferson county, and that column of the enemy despairing of forcing their way through Winchester, will probably go to Washington, to aid in protecting the Capital from capture. Everywhere will the movements of our armies be aggressive, and the enemy are to learn that the valor of our troops is as irresistible in assault as when standing for attack, sustained by their pot abommation, those terrible "marked batteries."
