Jackson growing because the soldiers en-
camped on his grass. He came into n room
where the officers were couuselling and
told them angrily that If this was Union,

Two more Indiana regiments arrived this
evening from Benwood,-g stnlwart.

ceived with immense applause.
! A short time before dark seven comuan-
ies,-i0ur of them Wheeling companies,
received marching orders, aud soon every
thing was nctiTity-driIing and preparing

Western Virginia rniIroad and thence
march to Philiippi, where the Secession

in two divisions, one on each side of the

boys were eager for the fray, aud every.
