The fight at Culpeper.
--On Saturday night last, shortly after midnight, it was ascertained that the enemy in considerable force, (infantry, artillery and cavalry,) were crossing the Rappahannock at Stark's and Kelly's Fords, Gen. Stuart, in command of our cavalry, immediately disposed of his forces with a view of giving them a warm reception, although it was well understood that their force was vastly superior in numbers to that at his disposal.
The first collision occurred at Brandy Station, from which point our forces fell back on Culpeper Court-House.
Finally they were compelled to yield this point to the enemy, who advanced upon it in heavy force.
During the entire day, on Sunday, there was severe skirmishing between the enemy's advancing and our retreating forces.
At last accounts the enemy were four miles south of Culpeper Court-House.
In the engagement of Sunday we lost about thirty men killed and wounded.--What loss the enemy sustained is not known.
Col. Beal
