HARDER% DECRY 81TI88NO8I8D
It is believed at the War Department that
Harper'. Ferry wee surrendered to the rebels
at nine o'clock a. tn. on yesterday, after Col.
Mileuhad been mortally wounded. Accounts
to that .'sect (none of them olliohd) have been
received, both via Chambersburg and Point
of Rooks. If it be true, nothing can prevent
the manrof the rebel army from making good
its retreat into Virginia.
Cols Mlles' cavalry force '
cut its way out
from Harper'. Parry on Sunday night, and
started for Chambersburg, capturing Long
street's ammunition train, and other wagons
to the number of sixty in all, on their way.
The commander of the cavalry reports that
Col. Miles had deolared that he could not
hold Harper's Perry longer than yesterday
morning unless relieved. This fact doubtless
does much to induce the Government to give
credence to the unodloial accounts of the sur
render.
