FROM JACxsoS's COMMAND.
Accident 10 the telegrsphic wires on yeste
day prevents US from giving our resdss On
satisfactory information from the lines Of Ii
army above GordonsvIlle. At an early ho,
In the day. The line from Gordousville TO Ricl
mond, via Lynchburg, became disordered, an
the only resort was then to the direct line. bu
the operator at Gordonsville, fearful Of an inte
ruption by Yankee operators, as on form'
occasion, declined 10 transmit intelligence, 10
medlstsly, through that medium. Soon afts
this, the direct line itself became disordere,
and nothing more was heard up TO last nigl
from that quarter. The only Intelligence whic
was received al sll by telegraph during Il
doy, was tina. the movements then In progre
were very important" II was owing 10 th
fact that the operator on the direct line deem,
1t prudent 10 withhold information until csrta
that the line was clear.
