a's soil, the capture of a number of guns, overcoats, clothing, shoes, four wagon-loads of fine dressed leather, and a number of other articles, the destruction of a fine bridge and a portion of the railroad track. The sufferings of the troops have been intense, and several have died from exposure to the cold and inclement weather. There are large numbers now sick, and one brigade reports five hundred and thirty-two on the sick-list. We reached our present encampment Wednesday night, and are now waiting further orders. Where we are going next and what we are to do, deponent knoweth not. Brigadier-General Loring met with an accident yesterday, by his horse slipping upon the ice. He was badly bruised, but I am pleased to say that his injuries are slight. Marye's battery, Company F, and the Sharpshooters, from your city, are with this army. The men are in tolerable health, I believe, and have behaved well. Colonel John M. Patton, Jr., is also with us, and in good health.

is evidently the result of a council of war, held before this force came across on the north side of the Cumberland: The result of your crossing the river now, will be that you will be repulsed, and lose all the artillery taken over. Estill. Dec. 4, 1861. Another Wild-Cat disaster is all we can look forward to. Fulkerson. We will cross over, and find that the enemy has retired to a place that we will not deem advisable to attack, and then we will return to this encampment. Loring. Estill is a colonel, from Middle--Tennessee. Fulkerson is a major, and one of the big-heads of the secession party, in Tennessee. It seems that there was opposition in the camp, to the move on to this side of the river, but old Zollicoffer, the head devil of the army, ruled, and did come over. Some of these predictions proved to be strictly true; it did turn out to be a Wild-Cat disaster — only worse; and they did lose all their artillery; and, more than all, the old hedevil, Zollico

ately afterward to Unger's Store. Major Frothingham is entitled to great credit, for building, under my direction, in four hours, in the dead of night, a complete bridge across the Great Cacapon, at an unfrequented mountain road. Two columns of two thousand men each, marched thirty-two miles, and one column forty-three miles since four P. M., yesterday, besides bridging the river. The papers taken, and my own reconnoissance to the south, prove the country clear, and that Jackson and Loring are in Winchester. We made a move and occupied the Blooming Gap and Point Mill, on the belief, by information obtained from deserters, that Gen. Carson's brigade was there. Gen. Dunning has just arrived at New-Creek, from Moorfield, forty miles south of Romney. He has captured two hundred and twenty-five beef-cattle, and he broke up the guerrilla haunt there. Two of his men were badly wounded, but several of the rebels were killed. The enemies have thus been driven out of this De

d promptly to our support, and I gave the command to Forward — charge bayonets! Here it was that the two remnants of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Indiana regiments went in with a yell and drove from the field a whole brigade, which proved to be Loring's celebrated Irish brigade of the provisional army, and completely routed them. We should have captured their colors had it not been that night was coming on, and for fear of firing into our own men I ordered a halt. It was so dark that we coulr force in infantry, cavalry, and artillery did not exceed seven thousand. That of the enemy must have been more than eleven thousand. Jackson, who commanded in the field had, in addition to his own stone-wall brigade, portions of Smith's and Loring's brigades. Their force in infantry must have been nine thousand. The cavalry of their united brigades amounted to fifteen hundred, and they had thirty-six pieces of artillery. The Federals had six thousand infantry, seven hundred and fift
