Incidents in the Valley.

We publish to-day an interesting letter from our correspondent in the Valley, giving incidents relative to the late event in that section. Its perusal will no doubt be gratifying to our readers. At this time the attention of the whole country has been drawn to the operations in the Valley of Virginia. The brilliant movements of Gen. Jackson--the bare mention of whose name brings up a crowd recollection — his victories; the discomfit of the enemy in every engagement, and brilliant achievements announced in his short but stirring telegrams make "Stonewall" Jackson and his gallant little army chief in the hearts of the nation. Strange is it may appear, news from the armies within five miles of the city is of secondary importance. Invariably the crowds which daily flock around the bulletin boards ask first, "What news from Jackson?" "Anything from the Valley? " "What about Stonewall?" and similar questions, before making an inquiry concerning matters on the Chickahominy. Thus far we have had but meag to give in answer to such inquiries, but such as have been received are of a cheering and satisfactory character.
