IMPoRTANT FROM GAULEY

CAMP GAULEY MoUNr, Nov. I5.-The
rebel forces by way of Raleigh and Fa-
yette, protected by New river, which
falls through preeipice gorge six OF
seven hundred feet deep. attacked and
attempted to dislodge our troops from
the encampment on the Lewisburg
road. at and about Gauley. The
cannonading was replied to with such
interest as induced them to make NO
farther investments in that way.
On the night of the 10th inst, prep
erstions for attacking and possibly cap
turing the rebels were so far advanced
that select force from Gen. Cox's
brigade crossed the Kanawha and New
rivers, and by ten o'clock the next day
had driven them back three miles from
all the nights. ... ...
A column under Gen. Schneck in
tended attacking them in the rear, but
were prevented from crossing the river
owing to high water.
Another column, under General
Benham, placed to attack their front
on flank and rear. moved up as far as
possible, and began to feel their front.
when a sharp skirmish took place.
lasting from O'Clock P. M. till
dark.
While Benham's column laid on
their arms. waiting for morning. the
rebels began to retreat from their in
trenched camp. and before our troops
discovered the movement they were
well on their way TO Raleigh. Their
cavalry horses were used in hauling
their baggagewagons.
Gen. Benham, on learning Of their
retreat, pursued them for twenty FIVE
miles midst a drenchiDg rain, over
muddy roads, when, finding that there
was but little chance of overtaking
them, he turned back from the pur-
suit.
In skirmish with the rear guard,
Col. Croghan, Of the rebel cavalry, and
a few others. were killed. It is
thought that Floyd has come to the
conclusion that Western Virginia is not
worth fighting for. The loss on our
side was but two.
The above is sent BY consent of Gen.
Rosecrans.

EIt will hardly do for the friends
of secession to attempt lessening the
effect Of our naval victory at Port
Royal, by statements that they we're
unprepared to meet an attack. The
parers seized in the forts, show that
JEFF. Davis knew perfectly well the
destination of the fleet. His telegram
to that effect was found. But who
was the traitor? Echo answers who?
Among the innumerable hosts Of spies
and traitors in the various Departments
at Washington, it would be strange. in
deed, if Davis would be ignorant of
anything whatever, which concerns the
present status Of our army or navy
Nor is it only so in Washington. The
rebels are everywhere fully posted up
as to the Federal strength. We know
that Floyd, jenkins or Clarkson are as
fully aware of the state of affairs in
Gallipolis to-day, as are any Of our
citizens. How they became SO we do
not know, but might guess.
The knowledge of JEFF. Davis in re-
gard 10 Port Royal, shows the weak
ness Of the Confederacy in their in
ability to defend their harbor. With
the advantage of this knowledge, with
time to prepare and build forts of mas
sive strength, with railroad and river
facilities-in short with every adran-
tage on land. they could not stand the
terrible effects of our shells, but evacu-
sted their strongholds, in much less
time than they could force Major An
derson from Sumter with his weak and
starving garrison. But the tables are
turned, secession has seen its best days.
The long murky night Of infamy draws
nigh. r~aie .r-,

~ Our town was enlivened on last

Reg. o. ", under command of Col
W. B. Hazen, Lieutenant Col. ]. ].
Wiseman, and Major Geo. 8. Mygatt
On account Of the large amount oI
Government property in Gallipolis,
this regiment has been sent hither for
protection against such marauding e1-
peditions as lately visited Guyandotte.
From what we have seen in regard to
drilling and soldier-like conduct, we
must yield the palm to the gallant 4lst.
The officers understand their duty, the
rank and file likewise. The first are
as careful to perform it on their part as
to require it of their men.
Accompanying the Regiment is a
band of music. To say that they play
well does not convey our true opinion
of their performances. None better
has ever been heard in our town "ol
any other place." 1t is rich treat tc
our citizens, and on their behalf We
thank the gentlemen composing the
band for past favors, and assure them
that all to come, will be fully apprecia.

@For many months past. the Sc
cessionists have been endesvosIng to
instil into the minds OF their slaves,
. wholesome fear Of the Union men
Of the North, whom they never
cease to style Abolitisnists. The slaves
we're told huge lies OF the course that
would be adopted BY the Lincolnites, il
they invaded the South. and every con-
ceiYable falsehood was brought int
play to stimulate the ferocity Of the
negro race against Tie Union men,
The story has been often repeated Of
their attachment to their masters, and
how willingly they would 6ght in their
defence. The attack on Beaufort has
not proven the truth OF these assertions.
On the contrary the accounts show how
futile all hopes Of this kind are. when
the slaves are once relieved from the
restraint imposed on them BY the pres
ence Of their masters.
Com. Dupont in letter TO Assistant
Secretary Fox Of the Navy, says:-
"The negroes are wild with Joy and re.
venge. They have been shot dowr
like dogs because they would not run
of with their masters" As the boat.
passed, the negroes came down tt
shore with their bundles in their handl
expecting to be taken of. After th,
forts we're taken, one old darkis. The
property Of Gen. Drayton. exclaimed
"Massa. / didn't think you could d,
it." Very likely his massa had oftel
said so, but like the darkie, found him
self mistaken. The effect of the mis-
take upon the two men, was as differ
ent as their color. General Draytol
owned 200 negroes. He ran ava,
from, and they to the feet. and begget
to be taken aboard.

E While the ladies of the free
States are every where manifesting the
most prsiseworthy zeal and industry in
providing for the wants Of our brave
soIdiers in the 6eld during the coming
winter, we will yield the palm to none
compared with those Of Gallia county.
The large numbers Of sick and wound
ed in our hospital at Gallipolis, require
the constant attention of the charitable,
and tax to the utmost the industry of
our noble hearted women. All this goes
for nothing in the general ACCOUNT Of
donations. But even in that respect
our citizens will not be behind, as any
one may learn by personal visit to our
knitting and sewing societies. What
ever is made or donated, is Of the very
best. and We have seen blankets pur-
chased and donated, under which an
Emperor might sleep. This is right
Whatever is worth doing should be
well done in this respect, and we are
pleased to find that the Committee need
not be ashamed Of our eounty's dona-
tions. Mittens, gloves and socks, will be
in great demand. We beg our ladies
not to cease their labors after one or
more pairs. During the long winter
evenings ply your knitting needles, and
as you sit by your cosy fresides. shell
tered from the biting frost and piercing
wind, think of our brave volunteers on
duty. exposed to the fury of the storm,
or shivering under cotton tents, and al
that you may still continue to enjoy
your comfortable homes and happy
6resides. The blessings Of Heaven
will be invoked upon your heads, fol
the means Of protecting their hands and
feet from frost bites and chilblains
which in the end must as effectually
render them unfit for service as the en-
emy's bullets.
Continue to manufacture socks and
gloves. The Government will buy al
you can make, for cash. As & source
Of profit to yourselves, as well as ad
vantage to the soldier, cease not YOU
lsbors whilst skein Of yarn can b.
procured.

BEAUFORT DIsrRIcT.-As this coun-
ty 10 now in possession of our land and
naval forces, short statement Of its
wealth, population, &c., may not be

The chief staples are rice and cotton.
The population is intensely slave-hold-
ing, and the district swarms with me-
groes. OF the land 239, ,289 acres are
improved, and 687, ,469 acres unim-
proved. This land is. however, very
fat and swampy, made up of innumer-
able islands, intersected by inlets, bay
Gus, &c. By the census we find it
comprising 84a farms. The total white

arrived here Wednesday evening
They were released on the following
Tuesday after their capture, about 35

cavalry force was under command oi
John Clarkson, and numbered about
fourteen hundred, Of which only about
800 were concerned in the Guyandotte
affair. Jenkins plan was, to quietly
surround the town, await the arrival
of a steamboat at the landing, then
make 9 rush and possess it, place the

nothing to eat but raw turnips and cab

and literally ate it raw. They are rep

them. Bob. Stribling was Assistant
Surgeon. and it was mainly through
him that Lawson and Berridge were
released.
