Port Republic (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 1
eceived yesterday from General Early's army. It was stated last evening that the enemy had abandoned Staunton. This is confirmed by the following official dispatch, the important feature of which is that there is no enemy south of Staunton; showing that they are not yet advancing on Lynchburg: "Headquarters Army Northern Virginia, "September 29, 1864. "Hon. James A. Seddon, Secretary of War: --General Early reports that after driving the enemy's cavalry from his front, near Port Republic, he moved to Waynesboro' and drove two divisions of cavalry from that place. This last force retreated through Staunton, and a portion of our cavalry entered that place to-day. No enemy south of Staunton. His main force is about Harrisonburg. "R. E. Lee." We have authentic intelligence that Colonel F. T. Munford, commanding Wickham's brigade of cavalry, attacked one division of the enemy in Waynesboro' on Wednesday, and after a sharp encounter, drove them from the town in

General Forrest attacked the town of Sulphur Springs, Alabama, nine miles north of Athens, a few days ago, and captured over eight hundred prisoners, including one lieutenant colonel, two majo

October 15th (search for this): article 3
From the United States. The Yankee papers are rather uninteresting just now. Dates as late as the 26th contain nothing of importance. A Washington telegram of the 25th says that Sheridan has pursued Early one hundred miles from Harper's Ferry, and "has advanced so far from his base of operations that communication is hazardous." An order has been issued expelling from Norfolk all persons over sixteen years of age who do not take the oath by the 15th of October next. The following are the latest gold quotation: On Saturday the excitement was intensified, and the market was in a state of panic all day. The opening sales were at 212, from which there was a rapid decline to 201½ then, a momentary dip still lower, and a sale in one instance at 200. An immediate rally took place, and the price at half-past 3 had reached 206½; but shortly before five o'clock it had dropped again to 202½@263. Later in the evening, at the up-town exchange, it sold as low as 199½ and

was deceived by false information from his scouts, and the Yankees state as much on him. We copy from the correspondence as follows: I have been informed that the following was General Hood's plan of operations on the 30th of August, Yankee Howard's grand corps of eighteen thousand, made a forced march of sixteen miles from Fairburn, on the West Point road, to Jonesboro', on the Macon road. They arrived at Jonesboro' on the Macon road. They arrived at Jonesboro' on the evening of the 30th, crossed Flint river, and took position between the river and the town. This is the head of Flint river, and here it is a mere creek, about knee deep. Hood sent, Hardee's corps, which was only twelve miles from Jonesboro', and Lee's which was fifteen, to meet this movement. I do not know when Hardee moved, but presume that he moved during the day of the 30th. Lee never moved until ten that night, and did not straighten out and get fairly in motion until daylight.
