Lynchburg, Nov. 10. --The special correspondent of the Lynchburg Virginian gives the particulars of the late fight twenty-six miles west of Lewisburg. Five thousand Yankees under Averill, who came from Beverly, attacked Jackson. The latter fell back to the point named and was joined by Echols, and a severe fight ensued. Our loss was heavy. Among the killed is Major Balley, commander of the 22d Va. regiment. His body is in the hands of the enemy. Capts. Reader and Ruffiner, of the same regiment, and Capt. Thompson, of the same regiment, with all of his company officers, were wounded. Lieut. Rand, of the same regiment, was wounded and is in the hands of the enemy. We lost one piece of artillery, but saved all our wagons. Gen. Echols hearing that a force, supposed to be under Scammell, was approaching from Kanawha, to cut him off, fell back to Salt Pond Mountain, and passed through Lewisburg Friday evening. The expected force from Kanawha arrived there next morning.
