prings at ten o'clock, and released the balance of the wounded, who had been wounded in the Rocky Gap battle. The White Sulphur is a beautiful spot, but now appeared lonely and desolate, with its hotels, halls, and buildings closed; and I felt sad and indignant both, that this lovely spot had been desecrated by the foul breath of treason, its beauty marred by the loathsome presence of the wicked conspirators, who resorted here to concoct their plans of treachery. From here we went to our Rocky Gap battle-field of August, where we made a halt, and took a survey of the ground; and after visiting the graves of the brave and good men who repose here, we resumed the march, and halted for the night at Calighan's. Next morning, as the column started, a party of bushwhackers fired into the Second. One of the rascals was captured. We took the road to Warm Springs, and a detachment of the Eighth, under Major Slack, was sent to make a reconnoissance in the direction of Covington. During t
valuable services in the pursuit after Lee had effected his passage of the river. On the twenty-fourth of July, Colonel Toland attacked the enemy at Wytheville, on the Eastern and Virginia Railroad, capturing two pieces of artillery, seven hundred muskets, and one hundred and twenty-five prisoners. Our loss was seventeen killed and sixty-one wounded; the enemy's killed and wounded reported to be seventy-five. In August, General Averill attacked a rebel force under General Sam Jones, at Rocky Gap, in Green Brier County, capturing one gun, one hundred and fifty prisoners, and killing and wounding some two hundred. Our loss in killed, wounded, and missing, was one hundred and thirty. On the eleventh of September, Imboden attacked a small force of our troops at Morefield, wounding fifteen and capturing about one hundred and fifty. On the fifth of November, General Averill attacked and defeated the enemy near Lewisburgh, capturing three pieces, over one hundred prisoners, and a larg
men; Bradley's Mounted Kentucky Rifles, about two hundred and seventy-five men — making an aggregate of two thousand one hundred and ninety-five men, to which, add Jeffree's battery of six pieces, manned by recruits almost entirely. General Heth desired a delay of a day or two to reorganize the companies in Floyd's brigade, which were under his command. Having despatched couriers to Colonel Wharton, directing him to meet me in Princeton, on the night of the sixteenth, by advancing from Rocky Gap; and, having informed General Heth (who was in position at the mouth of Wolf creek), that he should attack the enemy at the mouth of East river, on the morning of the seventeenth, I put my column in motion on the fifteenth, and reached Princeton on the night of the sixteenth. My advance was unexpected by Brigadier-General Cox, who had his headquarters and body-guard at Princeton at the time, with a force variously estimated at from five hundred to twelve hundred men — the former probably

two brigades. One brigade was kept at Princeton, while the other went to the Narrows and took possession of Pearisburg, which Heth so recently drove them from in great confusion. My account of yesterday's proceedings commences with Heth marching from Giles C. H., driving the enemy; Marshall marching from Tazewell C. H.; while Col. Wharton, with 869 men, and the 1st detachment of the Otey battery, having provided his men with three days rations, takes up his line of march from Rocky Gap, Bland county. Your correspondent was one of the latter's command, hence I can only state what came under my observation. The distance (10 miles) was travelled by 12M. the morning of the 17th, having driven in foraging parties and pickets all along the route. Arriving in front of the town, about a mile from it, the battery was ordered to the front and wheeled to the right into a field surrounded by woods, and just in front by a small field separating it by a rail fence. Before the gun cou
in the fight, were taken from their houses and forced to walk to the mountain, where they were paroled. These are only come of the inhumanities which were perpetrated. Among the victims of the Yankees are two citizens of the town, an old gentleman named Cock and a Mr. Telligan. The latter was murdered in cold blood, after he has surrendered. The Abiegden Virginian has the following about the probable, or rather improbable capture of the raiders: It is now reported that Col. May cut off their retreat through Burk's Garden, and that they attempted to make their way out through Mercer county, but when they get in the vicinity of the Cross Roads, they found that Celapel RcCarmland was in their front, and the only possible way for their escape was by the way of Rocky Gap, Bland county. When they arrived here they met the gallant Col. Wm. R. Peters. with a portion of his new regiment and a small force sent him by Col. May, to whom report says, the Yankees surrendered.
