From the Richmond Enquirer, Get 5.
The express which left General Jackson,s camp
on Thursday morning last brought some very IN
terestng intelligence TO StaIntons whence we have
obtained it through the poleness ofDr. Bland, Q. s.
A. who arrived here yesterday afternoon.
Gen. II. r. Jackson, of the Georgia EoluIteerss
who is in command Of our forces, is camped and
strongly entrenehed on the eastern bank OF the
GreenbFier river, and both sides of the turnpike
road leading from Staunton through Monterrey to
Cheat Mountain. His TANKS are well pFetecsed ny
the natural features of the locality, anu by ~
dicious defenees. TOT -
His Entertainments form semicircie parallel
TO the flank of the river, which is here some sixty
or eighty feet in width. Beyond the river, IN our
front. Is a belt of meadow land of eight or nine
hundred yards in width. over which tue enemy
must pass uncovered in an attempt to reach our
entertainments. On our right TANK he would have
to approach us under similar disadvantage. On
our left flank his march would have to be over
fallen timber. which covers a considerable space
The enemy's entreBehed campon Cheat Mountain
lay eleven miles West of Gen. Jaekson's position
They have advanced nowtoE Jackson's front, and
the battle commenced at 10 minutes past seven, on
Thursday morning. ..-
The force of the enemy is estimated at five to six
thousand. under command Of Gen. Reynolds, Gen

rho Crisis Gathering on 'lho PotoIaae

=
We have been careful in our statements Of the
movements of the army on the Potomac not to risk
tie truth Of the meEely popular aud vague reports
that reach us. Yesterday; however, we obtained
information that puts beyond al reasonable do@bt
or speculation the inHlineace of an early general
action on the line of the Potomac. Our readers
may rely upon the absolute truth Of the statement
that toe enemy has crossed the Potomac with the
bulk of his ferees and that there are at present. by
an estimate winch pitts the matter out of doubt one
hundred thousand Federal troops on the Virgins
side of the river.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1853-1862, 1861-10-08
From tn, Richmond pi,pGt h, Oct. )

Pasiehgers from EaIrf&X Yesterday report every
tang quiet in that vicinity. We still adhere to our
opinion that there will be battle before the mid
die of the month, though erents might happen to
prseipitate the engagement Should the Federsls
take the initetVe, they will doubtless fndo army
ready to receive them. We learn from Northern
Journals that the Federal forces made another
" Bethel mistake on their recent march to wards
Munson's hill and fred into each other with coBsld
cradle effect. These little episodes of the campaign
will perhaps teach the Yslkess that is child
ish amusement. and a few more defeats iks those
of Manassas and Lexington may conVIace them of
the hopslessness of their cause. They are now
much exercised in regard to the navigation of the
Patomac having become impressed with the belief
that any passing vessels in danger of being sent
to the bottom by wet-directed shots from the Con-
federste batteries.
