er fords that might possibly be threatened, are, of course, being duly guarded by forces which Generals Halleck and McClellan doubtless regard as sufficient for the exigencies of the occasion, various bodies of troops having in the last few days passed up the river on this side, evidently to that end. Winchester was yesterday evacuated by our troops, it being understood that the rebels have also appeared in force in the Valley. We may add that there already is a strong fleet of United States gun and mortar boats in the river ready for instant action if necessary. Our belief is that the rebel Generals will essay to cross the river in the hope of getting supplies and other assistance through a secession rising in Maryland, and thus be enabled to move on Baltimore rather than the Federal metropolis, which they probably think too well fortified to be attacked.--This is, however, but a surmise, though the contingency has doubtless been abundantly guarded against by the autho

The fact is humiliating, and one which we should rejoice to see refuted. But the logic of results proves it. In almost every instance where the two armies have met, the rebel Generals have out-manœuvred or out-managed ours. They have known prec
