a with a cavalry force of 1,800 and four pieces of horse artillery, under command of Brigadier- General Hampton and Cols. W. H. F. Lee and Jones. This force rendezvoused at Darkavills at 12 M., and marched thence to the vicinity of Hedgesville, wher toward Poolesville. I ordered the charge, which was responded to in handsome style by the advance squadron (Irving's) of Lee's Brigade, which drove back the enemy's cavalry upon the column of infantry advancing to occupy the crest from which the cavalry were driven. Quick as thought Lee's Sharpshooter's sprang to the ground, and, engaging the gantry skirmishers, held them in, check till the artillery in advance came up, which, under the gallant Pelham, drove back the enemy's force to his bas worthy the highest praise; a few individual cases only were exceptions in this particular. Brig. Gen Hampton and Cols. Lee, Jones, Wickham, and Butler, and the officers and men under their command, are entitled to my lasting gratitude for the
marching and fighting. Will this be a week, or fortnight, or three months? In reading the above statements it should be remembered that McClellan's army aid make a "forward movement," on Thursday of last week, which was promptly checked by Gen. Lee. The next battle to be in Pennsylvania. A correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune, writing from Hagerstown, Md., on the 19th, says: All last night the rumbling of artillery, and the solemn tramp of infantry, was heard passing through y of Hagerstown, where they had just arrived to wash and dress themselves in preparation for the winter, instantly gave us all to understand that either the right wing of the Army of the Potomac was about swinging over to Virginia or the left of Gen. Lee's army was on the point of paying us a visit. At this hour, 10 P. M., everybody looks as if another great battle would be fought before long on this side of the Potomac, out not on the sell of "My Maryland," but on that of our Pennsylvania.
Army news. From an officer who left Gen. Lee's Army Thursday last, we learn that our army was all quiet, Since Major-General Loring was ordered to report in Richmond, the command of the Army of Northwestern Virginia has devolved upon senior Brig. Gen. John Echola. Last night the War Department had nothing of import from any division of our army.
