The LATE CAVALRY DASH OVER THE

last time Fitxhugh Lee sent q flag OF
truce over to the Union lines, letter
was left with the pickets for Gen
Averill, who was his class-mate al
West Point, challenging him to cross
over and fight him. When General
Averill received the order to clear the
flank toward Warrenton of providing
rebels. he gladly awaited himself Of
the opportunity of finding and fight.

Was accomplished on Tuesday, q
Kelleys Ford, and when it was effect.
q, one Of the most brilliant cavalry
dashes Of the war commenced. AT.
ter. capturing the guard at the ford,
Gen. Aserill prepared to meet Lee,
who was advancing with FIVE brigades,
and about noon the fight commenced,
lasting until about FIVE o'clock in the
afternoon. and resulting in the com.
plete defeat of the rebels. Fitzhugh
Lee had his challenge accepted, but
will probably be careful how he re.
peats his banter.

Refugees confirm the statement that
the rebel army are falling back from
Fredericksburg. and being massed in
the defence before Richmond. They
state the entire force left at Fredricks-
burg on Sunday night to have been
only 5000.
They also confirm the news that
the gunmaking machinery and ord
nance stores are being rapidly re-
moved from Richmond into Georgia
that the withdrawal Of families from
the city has fully set in, and that
sales Of property are being forced to

They also state that the acknowl.

Tho Invasion Of KentuckeY.


. The situation in Kentuckey is i'm.
minent. Burnside with his 5000
men 10 on the ground not one day too
soon. The rebels like an army of
locusts have overspread the State.
and have full possession south of the
Kentucky River. They have come
in from three several directions under
leaders of repute and skill, and now
indeed the trial of Kentucky has COM
msnced in this fourth invasion. There
ID this certainty about It. 1t will be
short. The invaders want every me-
oessity Of life from corn and pork, to
jeans and brogans. Where they come,
the country~will be devastated as
with q prairie fire. Burnside will
drive them out perhaps more rapidly
than they came, but the woes of the
visitation on the pople cannot be aver
ted. We doubt If the rebels come in
this time, in as sweet temper as for
merly. They do not expect to hold
Kentucky, only to pluck her.
Gen. Burnside has advices that the
rebels who were defeated at Danville,
under Breckenridge, have possession
Of that town, and are advancing south
ward. There is another report mott
flying, however. that tho whole rebel
force has crossed the Kentucky Riv.
er, and captured train on the Frank
fort and Lexington road ; that all the
negroes in Bourbon, Harrison, Fayettc
and Woodford counties have been i'm
pressed by the rebels to work on fort
