Affairs in western Virginia.

From WAYNE AND CABELL COUNTIES BY
passengers who arrived yesterday on the
steamer Liberty, We learn that the report that
four thousand rebels were marching on Ceredo
is false. 1t is ascertained that no such force
Of infantry has been seen in that vicinity
Only some few struggling squads of cavalry
have been discovered by our scouts Colonel
Ziegler, Of the 5th Virginia regiment, kept his
position at CeredO, and did not fall back on
Catiettsourg, KY, as reported. At one time
after the burning of GuyandOtte, Colonel Z.
collected as many as fifteen hundred men at
CeredO, consisting of the Home Guards of
GraysOn, Ashland, Ironton and other points
along the Ohio. He is now holding Ceredo
with about 400 men, and is throwing up some
temporary fortifcations The most intense
excitement prevailed along the border in con-
sequence of the GuyandOtte affair, and the
rumors which filed the air Immediately after
wards. 1t is the general opinion now that the
secesh will not attempt another raid on the
border, knowing as they do that the Union
men are fully aroused to a sense of their
danger.
A gentleman from Barboursville, which Is
about fifteen miles from Guyandotte, saw the
rebel calvary pass through that town on their
return from the attack.-They had forty-two
Of Whaley's men tied upon the horses, and
were moving along at a rather rapid rate.
