The Daily Dispatch: October 31, 1861., [Electronic resource]

Our advices from the camps in Western gima are as late as Sunday last. A gentleman who arrived in this city yesterday forms us that Gen. Lee has fallen back to nager's Mill, between Meadow Bluff and Lewisburg, to anticipate a reported movement of the enemy from Summersville, by the derness road. It appears that the roads rk, one coming in at the mill, and the other mile behind Meadow Bluff, and by taking former route the enemy might have got Gen. Lee's rear, and made a demonstration sinst Lewisburg. Gen. Floyd was at Cotton ll, seven miles beyond Raleigh Court-house and had possession of Miller's, Carniax's, and Pack's Ferries, and the mouth of oat river. A report was in circulation that e had another engagement with the Federals a few days ago, but not credited. We have two statements of a movement of Gen. Loring's forces, to which we shall not allude the receipt of further advices. It is believed that Rosencranz and Cox are both in the Kanawha Valley, previous reports of their parture to the contrary notwithstanding. Their pillaging operations have been extensively carried on, and the Lincolnites of the West have had to pay liberally for their ad erence to the old Union. The people of Monroe are acting very nobly in the cause of the South, and Gen. A. A. Chapman, of that county, among others, is untiring in his exer to supply the necessities of our troops. They have not only promised an abundance of to Generals Lee and Floyd, but also to the means of transportation.
