From the n z. Evening Post, ST.
4 letter from WarTenton, Va, received in
this city yesterday, givea some interesting
facts concerning the recent descent on Beaver
Dam by part Of General Hatch's command,
and the operations OF our soldiers there and
elsewhere. The letter says:
I'VE have been within thitty-s{x miles Of
Richmond, and SAT- but few rebels until We
reached a place called Beaver Dam, where we
were a;EaEked by battalion Of rebel cavalry
ard tA1ion Of Infantry. It Is an almost
unaccountab1e fact that though we were with
in pistol shot Of the rebels ali the time Of the
fight, we did not have a man killed, or even
wounded, mp to the time they fed.
s'We buried all that We found-the rebel
stores and woodward; the telegraph Office,
the postonce, the comnissarJ depot, the
water stations, together with large amount
OF -four and beef, Decides tents and other
valuable property that We could not take with
"It IL war IN earnest now with Us, since
Pope took command The rehels DO not like
him IS well as they did Gen. MeDoWeu, who
previously commanded this part Of the army
on account Of his severity. The order Is now
army, and what We do not want to burn up.
It Is the best order that has yet been given to
the prmy, IS It will let the rebels who con.
tInqe to be such know that we mean to treat
them a. II they we're In the field fighting
against NE.
We can see the good effects Of the ordel
already. In the rebel towns in the valley ol
V1rginta, q great many more Of them are taE
