esides bridging the river. We made a move and occupied the Bloomery Gap and Point Mills east, on the belief (by information obtained from deserters) that General Casson's brigade was there. Gen. Dunning has just arrived at New creek from Moorefield, forty miles south of Romney. He has captured 225 beef battle, and broke up the guerilla haunt there. Two of his men were badly wounded. He killed several of the rebels. The enemy have thus been driven out of this department. F. W. Lander, Brig.-Gen. Skirmish in Western Virginia. The Cincinnati Times says that a skirmish occurred last Saturday on Linn creek, Logan county, Va. A detachment of the 5th Virginia regiment, under Capt. Smith, twenty-one in number, pursued and attacked thirty-two of Jenkins's cavalry. The result was a loss on the rebel side of eight killed and seven wounded, and the remainder captured, with upward of thirty horses. Of the Federals, one was killed and one wounded.

ring transmission over the wires, and instead of 15,000 captured, the Yankees succeeded in taking but 1,500 of our troops. We understand from good sources that our forces at Fort Donelson fell back, leaving some 1,500 men to cover the retreat, as in the of Fort Henry. The probability is, that this force has surrendered with the fort to a greatly superior force. The aspect of affairs in Hampshire county, in the Western part of this State, is anything but pleasant just now. The Federal force under Gen. Lander at Romney is reported to be advancing upon Winchester, there to form a junction with Gen. Banks, who is said to be preparing to cross at Williamsport. Bloomery, 17 miles from Winchester, was occupied by the Federals on Friday last. Among the rumors floating is a report that Romney had been burned, though this is evidently false, since it would be of no benefit the world for the enemy to leave a pile of in his rear, when a town would be so much service to him.

Col. Baldwin and his men. We have already twice noticed the capture of this officer, with a portion of his command, in Hampshire. We are glad to learn that they were not captured without a most gallant and determined resistance, in which they succeeded in killing sixteen and wounding some twenty of the enemy. A gentleman, of the highest reliability, informs us that a letter had been received in Winchester, by the wife of Col. Baldwin, from Gen. Lander, commanding the Federal forces at Romney, in which that officer says: "Your husband is a prisoner in my hands. He was captured to-day by a portion of my command, whilst gallantly defending his position against a largely superior force." The force of the enemy consisted chiefly of cavalry, which rendered a retreat of our forces at Bloomery impracticable, and although largely out numbered, they determined not to surrender their liberties without inflicting a staggering blow upon the enemy.
