From Eastern Kentucky. two Fights in Pike county--occupation of Pikesville by the enemy — the enemy Advancing on Virginia — great excitement in Tazewell and Buchanan — our forces fall back to Pound Gap in Wise — election news — good and bad failures--Union men Rejoicing. [Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Tazewell C. H. Va. Nov. 11, 1861 We have just learned, through our dispatch bearer, M. L. Comann, some very exciting and interesting news from the Sandy country. You are aware that our forces in that section were under the command of Col. John Williams, and that he had evacuated Prestonsburg, and taken a stand some few miles this side. (This information I communicated to you in my last epistle.) On last Thursday, the 7th, our forces fell back from their position to a place called Gauley Bridge, a new name recently given to a little creek or ravine called Marrow-bone, some 16 miles from Pikesville, the county seat of Pike county. At this point, a littl

of J. W. English to an order of the Circuit Court of Giles county, and the signature of James D. Johnson upon the back of the same paper, was examined; and after hearing the evidence, the Court remanded him for final trial. John Wade, charged with shooting William V. Mott, on the 5th of October last, with intent to "maim, disfigure, disable, and kill," was discharged from further prosecution. The Grand Jury yesterday made the following presentments; The Commonwealth against Charles Wood, for petty larceny; John Haake, for retailing ardent spirits without license; George Nelson and Joseph Calvin Henry, for petty larceny; George Williams, for an assault; Thomas Linton, for petty larceny; Daniel C. Warrell, for an assault on his wife; William J. Summerville, for shooting a pistol in the streets;--true bills of indictments for misdemeanor. The Commonwealth against John H. Cook, an indictment for a misdemeanor — not a true bill. The Grand Jury will meet again this morning a

The Queen Sisters. --The performances of these promising children, at the Theatre, on Monday night, gave unlimited satisfaction to a thronged audience. They evince wonderful versatility of dramatic talent, sing well, and dance gracefully. Through their exertions in the South heretofore a considerable sum of money has been contributed to the volunteers. The pleasing play of "Faint Heart never won Fair Lady" was well played the same night by the stock company; Miss Wren, Mrs. Jennie Powell, Mr. Ogden and others sustaining their parts admirably.

Ranaway--$100 reward. --Ran away, on Monday, a negro Boy, named Essex; about five feet eight inches high; black; stammers slightly; about twenty or twenty-two years old; weight about 150 pounds; formerly belonged to Capt. John Wright, of Plain View, P. O., King and Queen county, Va. The above reward will be paid on his delivery to me at my office, in this city. He may be making his way to West Point Va. He has a wife in that neighborhood. His upper teeth are dark, from tarter on them. oc 22--ts Benjamin Davis.

and were tied and carried away, and kept off until some time during the day on Saturday. Three men have been arrested whom the guard identified. The bridge over the Holston river was not guarded, as Sullivan county is known to be strongly in favor of the Confederate Government. The bridge over the Holston river at Strawberry Plains, in Jefferson county, was set on fire, but the fire was put out by the people. The guard had one hand cut off and his skull fractured. The indications are that one of the incendiaries was killed. A gentleman, just from East Tennessee, reports that great excitement prevails there, in consequence of the evidently preconcerted plan, which these bridge-burnings evince, to destroy property and prevent supplies from passing on to our army. The loss is heavy, and will cause much inconvenience and delay. Matters in East Tennessee are regarded as in a critical condition, and much anxiety is felt there for Gen. Zollicoffer and his forces.
Zollicoffer (search for this): article 18
A correspondent of the Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser, writing from Knoxville, Tenn., says there is considerable complaint made about Gen. Zollicoffer, by the officers of the different regiments under his command, and the general impression is that he is not competent for the position he holds. Some two weeks ago, in Missouri, the Federals arrested Mrs. Campbell, who is a sister of Senator Green. Having no prison handy, and desiring to humiliate her, they have compelled her to wash the dirty clothes of the soldiers and to sew for them. A man of experience, who has tried it, advises that our soldiers keep a small amount of tar, say a large spoonful, in their canteens, in order that the water may extract its properties. It is a good preventive of chills and fever. A. K. Ceago, of Atlanta, Ga., advertises through the Commonwealth to retail to the poor of that city 100 sacks of salt at three cents per pound, and not more than 50 pounds to any one purchaser. If an
