The Late Battle in Western
VIRGINIA.

The following highly interesting ac-
count of the brilliant reconnaissance by
General Reynolds of Generals Lees forces
in the mountains of Western Virginia is
an extract from the correspondence to the
Cincinnati Times. The whole correspon-
dence is interesting. but we have not room
for it. We published last week the tele-
graphic account Of the affair. and the cor
rect list of killed and wounded. 1t is da-
ted at Cheat Mountain Summit. October 4:
THE REBEL CAMP. AxD HOW THE ATTACK
WAS TO BE MADE.
The rebel camp is located on a high
steep elevation known as Buffalo Hill. 1t
is located at a sharp turn Of the road, and
so situated that All attacking force had to
come directly under the guns and intrench-
ments of the right of the camp to obtain
even view Of the left The formation of
the ground is particularly favorable for the
formation Of terraces, and the rebels had
made good Use Of the advantage Their
defences rose one above the other, far up
the hill. extending even into the forest a.
bove the camp. 1t was estimated from
the number of tents, that ten thousand
men held the posts. The sole attack con-
templated was directly in front, with ar
tillery. the infantry to be used merely to
protect the batteries.
THE FIRST DAsH-A GALLANT CHARGE.
1t was discovered that the rebels had
placed a large infantry force three fourths
OF mile in front to dispute our approach.
They lay in ambush beside q fence thick
encd with small trees to the right Of the
road. and in the timber on the bill side to
the left. On making this discovery. Col.
kimball was ordered to clear the way for
the artillery with the rugged Indiana 18th.
The boys received the order with q. shout.
and firing volley into the ambush, rush
ed upon it with wild cheer. .siss sae !,
The concealed enemy took to their heels.
some rushing across the valley, and others
up the mountain on our left. The gallant
l4th, its ragged breeohos tapping in the
Air. started up the mountains. with cheer,
popping orer the rebels at every crack.
The 9th Indiana, its col,rs Haunting beau
|tifully above the green grass. rushed after
those across the valley. A cheer went up
from the whole line. ss the ambushed reb-
els took to flight. the Hoosiers in pursuit.
The 18th made sad work. with the rsb-
els on the mountain; eighteen OF, them
werc found dead in one pile, and seven in
another. They also captured several pris-
Ioners and took care of 9 few. wounded. =

Colonel Milroy has received official no.

brigade under his command will never dis

MES that havo left Marshall county for the
scene of conflict. hardship and duty. Such
a contribution from the patriotic fair
would be gratefully received. and 1 fear

one. snd hope the Marshall county boys
in the old 9th viii not be forgotten.

THE BRAVE AT HOME.
By 7. BUCHANAN READ.

The maid who binds her warriors sash.
With smile that well her pain dissembles,
The while. beneath her dropping lash.
One starry tear-drop hangs and trembles,
Though Heaven alone records the tear,
And Fame shall never know her story,
Her heart has she'd a drop as dear sr l
As ever dewed the field OF glory.
The wife who girds her husbands sword.
Mid little ones who weep or wonder,
And bravely speaks the cheering word
What though her heart be rent asunder?
Doomed, nightly, in her dreams. to hear
The bolts of war around him rattle,
Hath shed as sacred blood as e'erl
Was poured upon the plain Of battle.
The mother who conceals her grief,
While to her breast her son she presses,
Then breathes few brave words and brief,
Kissing the patriot brow she blesses;
With no one but her secret God ~
To know the pain that weighs upon her,
Sheds holy blood as e'er the sod
Received ON Freedoms field of honor.

fee appointments in their several districts,
are restrained by their gallantry from exer-
cising any adverse influence in this class of
cases.
The subject reminds us of an amusing an
ecdote which is related OF an ex senator, the
Hon Daniel S. Dickinson. A post office not
far from his residence becoming vacant, a
lively contest sprung up for the appointment,
and among the applicants was Mrs Nancy
W. Congress being in session at the
time, the worthy senator, in accordance with
usage in such cases, was requested to call at
the department to look at the papers in the
case in hand. The request was promptly
complied WITH and the documents were duly
inspected, not without some perplexity in the
mind of the senator; for two of his personal
and political friends, both highly respectable
and competent men, were, as appeared from
the papers, about meek and neck in the race
for Office so far as influential signatures on
either side could make them so. But sud-
denly light dawned upon the senator. A
neatly written note in lady's handwriting
came to view, applying for the office in her
own behalf, and giving but single name as
reference, and that the name Of the honora-
bic senator himself. He had known her de-
ceased husband intimately and most favora-
bly, for many years, and was no stranger to
the Young widow herself After moments s
reflection, he carefully returned the delicate
missive to its place, and made the following
