g to dislodge the enemy. The Federal force before Huttonsville was under the immediate command of Brig.-Gen. Joseph J. Reynolds, who with about 5,000 men lay at Elkwater, about 10 miles below Huttonsville in the Tygart valley, on the Huntersville road, while three regiments under Colonel Kimball held the impregnable pass of Cheat the Federal position at Cheat Mountain pass, with 1,500 men, and attack early in the morning; General Anderson, with two Tennessee regiments, was to get between Elkwater and the gap, and support Rust, while General Jackson was to make a demonstration in front. The pass, being carried, the whole Confederate force there under Jackson was to sweep down upon the rear of Reynolds at Elkwater, with the co-operation of General Donelson with two regiments, who was to have gained a flanking position. Meanwhile, Burk and Major Lee would move to the west flank of Reynolds, and the rest of the forces would advance by the main road up the valley to attack Reynolds

ey of Anthony's Creek allows Averell to avoid—at the cost of great suffering, it is true—the Lewisburg road: he reaches in this manner the Greenbrier Valley, close to Droop Mountain, without meeting Jones, who is looking after Duffie. The demonstration made by Moor farther to the north has decided the Confederates to leave Huntersville and the western sides of the Alleghanies, so that Averell can reach, without any impediment, the Traveller's Repose, and cross the passes which bring him to Elkwater in the basin of the Monongahela. A well-supplied train which the Federals meet at this point makes them forget their sufferings, and, returning by short marches through the friendly country, they reach at last their encampments on the Ohio Railroad on the 1st of January, 1864. The small column which Averell has led to the heart of the Virginia mountains has lost about a hundred prisoners and a small number of wagons, but not one gun, despite the impediments it has encountered. Not bein

The enemy made an advance on Elkwater on the same day, with a force supposed to be fifteen thousand, but were driven back by detachments from the Fifteenth Inumber of the enemy, on the 11th, and killed ten or eleven, with trifling loss on our side. As the enemy advanced on Elkwater, the column was handsomely checked by a detachment of the 17th Indiana. Lieut. Morrill, of the Topographical Enginehe Sixth Ohio; at Huttonsville, the next station south of east from Beverly, are the 13th and 17th Indiana regiments; at Elkwater, on the road leading toward Huntersville, are fortified the Third Ohio and Fifteenth Indiana; and eighteen miles from ElElkwater are 6,000 rebel troops, under Col. Loring. On the other road from Huttonsville, leading toward Monterey and Staunton, over Cheat Mountain and on its top, are fortified the Fourteenth Indiana, Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Ohio, and Loomis's
