GES. AHIBY.-Since the commencement
of the rebellion, Ashby has been one of the
most formidable opponents with whom our
men have been called upon to contend.-
Formidable not only from the strength and
daring Of his command, which numbered,
according to rebel authority, twenty light
full companies, but also on account OF his
great personal courage and consequent pop
nlarity among the citizens Of the Valley OF
Virginia. Always the first in the advance,
he was ever in the rear upon retreat ana
even our own troops bore willing testimony
to his gaIantry. Ashby was young and
wealthy resident Of Fauquier county and
entered the rebel service as commander OF
a single company. His exploits soon gained
him notoriety, and the young men OF the
valley hocking to his standard. he soon
found himself Colonel commanding resi-
meut. lie arose to the command oil a brig
sde which position ho held at the time Of
lila death. which occurred in the late en-
gagemest near Harrsonburg, Va.
