re met by such determined resistance that they retreated, suffering great loss.--(Doc. 198.) Yesterday and to-day great excitement existed in Wheeling, Va., caused by the intelligence that Buckhannon had been captured, and that Weston and Clarksburgh were threatened by strong forces of rebel guerrillas. To-day a militia regiment left for Clarksburgh to reenforce the garrison already there.--Wheeling Intelligencer, September 1. William A. Hammond, Surgeon-General of the army, issued tClarksburgh to reenforce the garrison already there.--Wheeling Intelligencer, September 1. William A. Hammond, Surgeon-General of the army, issued the following to the loyal women and children of the United States: The supply of lint in the market is nearly exhausted. The brave men wounded in defence of their country will soon be in want of it. I appeal to you to come to our aid. in supplying us with this necessary article. There is scarcely a woman or child who cannot scrape lint, and there is no way in which their assistance can be more usefully given than in furnishing us the means to dress the wounds of those who fall in defence of t

Doc. 9.-operations in West-Virginia. General Kelley's despatch. Clarksburgh, November 8, 1863. To Governor Boreman: General Averill attacked General Jackson's forces at Mill Point, Pocahontas County, on the fifth instant, and drove him from his position with trifling loss. Jackson fell back to the summit of Droop Mountain, when he was reenforced by General Echols with Patten's brigade, and one regiment from Jenkins's command. The position is naturally a strong one, and was strengthened by breastworks commanding the road. General Averill turned the enemy's left with his infantry, and attacked him in front with cavalry dismounted. The victory was decisive, and the enemy's retreat became a total rout, his forces throwing away their arms and scattering in every direction. The cavalry pursued till dark, capturing many prisoners and a large quantity of arms, ammunition, etc. The enemy's wounded have all fallen into our hands. Our loss in killed and wounded is abou

rformed, our little force pushed vigorously forward, and reached Clarksburgh, twelve miles distant, shortly after dark. As the advance-guae command — were bivouacked at Union Church, four miles west of Clarksburgh, on the road leading from McLamoresville into the Huntington and Lexington road at Parker's Cross-Roads, five miles south of Clarksburgh. One of his foraging parties represented his force at eight thousapt them. The point where he thought they would meet them was at Clarksburgh, or near there, and, as was shown subsequently, the General madehe subject, as the Cross-Roads are but a short distance south of Clarksburgh. It was late evening when the Second brigade reached ClarksburgClarksburgh, which is about nine miles from huntington. Leaving the Generals Sullivan and Haynie at Huntington, let us follow the march of Colonel Dunham's devoted force in the advance from Clarksburgh south, toward Lexington, it being understood that Forrest's force, unknown to the Feder

nkrom, of the same regiment, is deserving of notice; and owing to his exertions at the bridge, Lieutenant Atkinson of company K, Twelfth Regiment, was enabled to get a good position for his command, and then he handsomely returned the compliment by pouring into the rebels a hot fire, which aided the cavalry in getting out. In the attack on our works here, no anxiety was felt as to the result. Since the fight several of the enemy have come in and given themselves up. They report that they are most all willing to lay down their arms and take the oath, but are watched too closely. They say that it was the expectation that a large body of mounted men, under Imboden and Jones, would attack Gauley Bridge at the same time that McCausland would attack us here; but it is the opinion that the movement of some of our forces from the direction of Clarksburgh, changed the notion of the rebels, and, therefore, the column operating on this road was left to take care of itself.

red. Col. E. F. Noyes, commanding the Thirty-ninth Ohio regiment of Sullivan's brigade, says, when he reached the field he found Dunham's brigade surrounded on three sides by Forrest's troops. Firing had ceased, flags of truce were passing, and a part, if not all, of Dunham's artillery had been captured, together with several hundred prisoners. Forrest withdrew in good order, leaving his dead and wounded in the hands of the enemy. He had taken the precaution to send four companies to Clarksburg, seven miles in his rear, to watch for Federal reinforcements, but the command failed to discover Sullivan's approach and the first notice of his presence was the opening of his guns. Colonel Biffle returned from the rear in time to participate in the affair at Parker's cross-roads; and before rejoining Forrest he captured and paroled 150 Federal prisoners within six miles of Trenton. Forrest reported a loss of 60 killed and wounded and 122 captured. Among the dead was Col. T. Alonzo Nap

e on Loudoun Heights during the evening of the 13th. At night of the 13th, therefore, the investment of Harper's Ferry was complete. Escape was impossible. Rescue by McClellan was the only salvation. General Lee, with Longstreet and the reserve artillery, had in the meantime gone into camp at Hagerstown and D. H. Hill at Boonsboro. We left McClellan on the 9th occupying the ridges along the line of the Seneca. On the 10th he moved his centre some five miles further to Damascus and Clarksburgh, and his left to Poolesville and Barnesville where he came in contact with Stuart's lines. The duty of the cavalry was only to cover the movements of Lee which had begun that morning, and Stuart merely held his position until pressed back by McClellan's infantry. On the 11th he withdrew, still spreading a cordon of cavalry, covering about twenty miles between the Federal and Confederate armies.
