2d ult., Capt. Imboden, with forty men, had a skirmish with the enemy at Wardensville, Hardy county, in which they killed four Yankees, wounded four others, and took two prisoners. The Abolitionists under Milroy, are now stationed in and around Moorefield, and are ruling in Hardy with an iron rod. The loyal citizens of the county are leaving in large numbers. A short time since, a respectable citizen named Welty died, and had to be buried in his own yard, the fiends refusing his afflicted famil carry his remains to the burial-ground, which was only some three hundred yards distant. A Yankee Lieutenant Colonel, belonging to the 12th Virginia regiment, was recently captured by a private Confederate soldier named Seaman, who was wounded at Sharpsburg, and who was at home on furlough. The Lieutenant-Colonel gave up his arms and horse to the wounded soldier, who paroled and set him at liberty. Seaman was afterwards captured by the Yankees, and by them tied and taken to Moorefield.
