CAEAUx Ferry. Sept. lS.
The battle OF last Tuesday at this place, was
by far the greatest and S;vsreSt yet fought in
Western Virgins. Ex- Secretary OF War,
Floyd, commanded the rebels in person. AMI
received severe wound in the arm, during the
engagement. !.
The rebels had accurate advice OF our approach
and exact strength. as appears from the papers
found in their car p, and had made everyprep-
aration to resist an attack. They had six regi
ments beside their entertainments, with artil-
lery sweeping all approach.
During the whole engagement, lasting nearly
four hours we brought into action only five re-
giments, and Cf these but parts Of three were
long engaged. The rebels stationed expert ri
flemen to pick off officers and fired speter from
their cannon--a missile unknown TO civilized
warfare. Experienced military men say the
roar of cannonading and musketry for time
was the heaviest they ever heard, but the rebels
fred mostly too high with their artillery. The
squirrel rifles did the most execution. Floyd
should be surrounded and his retreat to Lewis.
burg cut of. -, no.
An immense amount Of personal property
was found in the rebel camp, but only some fifty
wagon loads were thought worthy OF transpor-
tation, and in this country the whole amount is
hardly worth ten thousand dollars.
Fears have been entertained that Floyd might
make q rapid march to Gauly Bridge, and con
centrate with Wise in an attack on Cox, but he
is now 10 no condition for fight anywhere. -
He has over five hundred sick, and strong de-
tachment spent an hour and twenty minutes
carrying off his killed and wounded after the
fight, passing the house where he had our pris
oners confined. Wise has been skirmishing
with Cox, and has uniformly been beaten with
heavy loss. Cox is regarded perfectly safe.
Lee attacked Beynolds at Cheat Mountain
Gap Yesterday Reynolds is strongly posted
and believed able to defend himself
Floyd's scouts are still infesthg the noun
tains on the opposite side Of Gauley, and guer.
lila firing is frequent on our messengers from
here to Sutton.
