(Times’ dispatch.)
WASHINGTON, April 29. – By advices from the Department of the Shenandoah received to-day, Gen. Banks, notwithstanding the bad roads, is cautiously pushing his advance towards Stanton [sic], being already within a few miles of that place. It is considered doubtful whether the rebel Jackson will make a stand at Staunton, as he was being flanked by a column from the mountain Department.
Gen. Banks’ troops are in the best spirits.
