t of casualties. One of them bore a note from me to the mainland during the hottest of the fire, and two or three others went for and brought ammunition. So far from trepidation, one of the messengers stopped upon the causeway and picking up a shot which had fallen near him, brought it in as a trophy. Capt. Sener of the Washington Guards was present during the day's conflict, and volunteered to extinguish a fire kindled at the inner end of the wharf, but I withheld consent. Capt. Wise, of Company E Richmond volunteers, was by me throughout Saturday's engagement, and while the enemy's fire was hottest, volunteered to go for infantry to repel an apprehended landing of the enemy under cover of the smoke. Before recognizing Capt. W., I twice ordered him, the last time peremptorily, within the redoubt, for next to damaging the enemy it was my duty to preserve the lives of those around me. These are all the individual cases I can call to mind. The demeanor of the men at the

Mounted Guerilla Rangers --Col J. J. Daniel and Lieut. Thos. W. Upshur are raising, for immediate service in Gen. Wise's Brigade, a corps of Mounted Guerilla Rangers. Their movement is sanctioned by Col. Davis, and we have reason to believe that the plan they propose will result in a most effective acquisition to our Southern forces. The officers above named are endeavoring to secure some pecuniary aid from the citizens of Richmond, since it has been determined to arm and equip the corps in the most approved style, and we hope that every man of means will exhibit his patriotism by responding favorably to their appeal. Guerilla fighting will help us out wonderfully.

here to-day from Phillippi. He was carried on a litter as far as Webster, being very feeble. He is suffering from a fever and nervous prostration. He will receive every attention here that medical skill can bestow. Col. Kelly has been worse during the day, though he is resting easy this evening. The train that brought Col. Willey down from Webster also brought down about a dozen boxes of the muskets captured at Phillippi. They are very hard looking pieces; old rusty flint locks, such as Wise distributed the time of the John Brown raid. Information has been received here from sources that entitle it to consideration, that Ben McCulloch has been ordered to this part of the State by Gov. Letcher to take command of the Secession forces now between Phillippi and Staunton, and to raise recruits and carry on the war in Western Virginia. Intelligence reached here to-night that the Secessionists are fourteen miles beyond Beverly, on the march in the direction of Staunton. Their
