The cavalry fight in Loudoun We have a few additional particulars of the cavalry fight in Loudoun last week, and from these we learn that the affair was one of much more importance than was at first supposed. Our information represents that the enemy were driven out of Middleburg on Wednesday evening by the brigade of Gen. Robertson. On Thursday morning the fight was renewed, and at first the enemy were driven back, with the loss of some hundred prisoners, belonging to a Rhode Island cavalry regiment. In the afternoon the enemy was heavily reinforced, and throughout the remainder of the day the fighting is represented to have been quite severe, and altogether indecisive.

Lee and another brigade. This, however, is mere rumor, and not wholly entitled to credit. This much we are confiden
