the citizens of Charlestown and Martinsburg, and furnishing to many of the farmers a guard for their property. Still some of the fiends among them are perpetrating the most brutal acts of vandalism. Some three weeks ago, when the body of Captain Blackford, of the Confederate service, who was killed at Newtown, was taken to Jefferson, it was delivered over to his friends, who came to Charlestown for it. That night two farm houses, in one or the other of which they believed his body to be lying, were burned to the ground. Both of these houses belonged to and were occupied by widow ladies and their families--one of them a sister-in-law of Blackford. A few days ago, some of our forces visited Winchester and arrested a Union man named Dooley, who had been acting as a detective in the Lincoln service.

Subsequently he ran off, but has now returned to do the filthy work of his Northern masters, and for such work he is about the best man that could have been found in that region. When Gen. Imboden's command went down to Bunker Hill, about the first of January, a Yankee force was sent up from Harper's Ferry to intercept his movements. The night was very cold, a portion of the force got on a spree, and fifteen of them were so badly frozen as to require amputation of their limbs. Five of them afterwards died at Charlestown. Their troops are reported to have suffered terribly from cold on the march.
