Battle on Greenbrier River
800 REBELS KILLED!

The following special dispatch comes
Via Cincinnati
Cheat River Mountain, Oct 5.
This morning at / o'clock a portion Oh
I Brigader Gen Reynolds Brigade, con-
sisting of three Ohio regiments, the 2ith,
/ 18th, 32d and portions OF six Indiana reg
imcnts, the It'll, 18th, 18th. 18th and 18th,
\ together with attachments of Bracken' $
I Indiana, Robinson Ohio, Greenfield S
Pennsylvania cavalry, and detachments of
Howe's regular Loomis Michigan, Daum S
Virginia Artillery, numbering in all 5000
men, left Cheat Mountain to make Ii re-
connoisance 10 force in front of the enc
my's position on Greeubrier river, twelve
miles distant.
Col. Ford's sd Ohio was sent forward
to hold an important road, the possession
of which prevented the enemy from flank
ing our main column.
The expedition was in front of the en-
emys Notifications. At 5 o'clock their
pickets retreated after firing an Intellectual
volley kimball's 10Th Indiana was i'm
nediatcly sent forward to secure position
for Loomis's Battery. Ammin's 2i.h
Ohio deployel as skirmishers on the south
slope OF the mountain.
LOOMS 5 Battery getting in position
supported BY the 18th Indiana Regiment,
opened the battle The shot was imme-
diately responded TO by an enemy con-
cealed in the bush, bu. who were soon
routed by the ith Indiana, with loss OF
seven killed and large number wounded
and taken prisoners.
Howe's Battery, supported by the 18th
/ Indiana then loved forward, taking Il
position 500 yards nearer the enemy's for
tiiications, opening brisk fire.
The firing ON both sides was almost in
cosSant for one hour, our artillery doing
execution, judging from the lamentablc
shreks of their wounded The enemies
I battery did parutlyely little injury,
their guns beng too much elevated. Our
guns etiectually siIeneed three of theirs
While observations were being made OF
1 the encmy,s Notifications, occupying three
more hours. an irregular artillery lire was
kept up, occupying the entire attention
during this interval The 18th Ohio and
/ 18th Indiana rendered efficient service In
scouting the mountains before the close
of the reconnaissance, which was most sat
isiactory.
The enemy received heavy reinforce
menis from their camps near Monterey,
making their strength about 200. AL
though this reconnaissance partakos more
Of the character Of a regular engagement
than any previous battle in Western Nir-
GINA, our loss is but ten killed and eleven
wounded. 1t is impossible to ascertain
the loss of the enemy Ii will not, how
ever, fall short Of five hundred killed and
wounded, as our artillery did terrible cs.
ecution.
Their camp was situated or a slope Of
the mountain, supported by number of
guns We captured thirteen prisoners
from the enemy, and also a lot of cattle
and horses
The reconnaissance proved entirely sue
cessEul, aflording information relative to
the cnemy's strength, which could not be
! asccrtained from .couts.
| Our tr ops acted noblv.
