The Battle on the Gauley River

THE LATEST FROM ROSECRANSS ARMY.
Cincinnati, Nov. 4.-The Commercial has ad.
vices from General Rosecrans up to Saturday
evening.
On Friday morning, at O'Clock, the enemy
opened fire with two guns, from points opposite
Gauley's Ferry and Camp Tompkins, and !,
noisy fire of musketry.
Their object was evidently to cut off the sup.
ply trains. They succeeded In sinking ferry
boat on the Gauley river, and threw about
forty shells into the camp of the Eleventh Ohio.
Not one of our men WAS killed, and only about
half a dozen we're wounded.
The majority of the shells thrown by the
enemy did not explode, and their musketry was
wild and irregular.
The ferry boat which had been sunk BY the
enemy's shot on Friday, was raised that night
There was no firing, on Saturday, on either
side.
The position of the forces on Saturday even.
ing was rs follows:
The rebels were in possession Of tho left or
west bank Of New river.
General Sohenok's brigade was few miles
above the junction of Gauley and New rivers,
on the east side Of New river.
General Cox's brigade, and General Rose
cranss headquarters we're near the junction of
the rivers, and between them and General
Benham was below the junction, on the right
bank of the river.
!, Floyd's force is believed to be about seven
thousand.
IL was DeleVeu, IN camp, that Generals
Schenck's and Benham's brigades would be
thrown across the river, above and below
Floyd, and catch him.
General Rosecrans was certain that he could
hold his own, and expected to bag his assal.
