firmed somewhat, IS we learn directly iron
the front to-day. g--o-4 =

ing tbs soldiers has most salutarY effect.
A Richmond paper has the following;
MOBILE, Nov. l2-The following des,
patch from Tennyso, Miss. was received
Yesterday dated the 10th, from Col. Harvey
Maury, commanding the 18th cavalry regl-
ment:
We dashed in, yesterday, above Bayou
Sara, on plundering party of Yankees,
300 strong, and drove them to their iron
clads with great slaughter. We brought
off their wagon trains and rs prisoners from
undor the broadsides of their gunboats only
3 of our men were wounded.
ISignedl DARNEY Il. MAURY,
Major General.
A Richmond despatch says:
Advices from Northern Virginia show
that Meade is advancing with view OF
bringing on general engagement, which
probably won't be declined when the pro-
per time arrives. Meade's whoie army is
known to be South of the Rappahannock,
and his advance yesterday was several
miles to the south of the Court House and
moving in the direction Of several fords on
the Rapidan.
A Folly Island letter Of the 18th to the
Tribune says:
Matters remain pretty much in the same
condition as they lately were. The bonn.
parchment of Sumter still continued at in
.srvals, our batteries being principally occu,,
bed in returning the fire of Moultrie and

says: .eGQis5D Lii@
There was some dispute here over an am

Meade desire to advance upon the enemy !?
1t is claimed by some of his friends that he

Halleck is opposed to it. On the other

made this winter, but that the President

ATTACK Upon WAGON TRAIN-Ol
Monday morning wagon train was start
ID from Burlington for Petersburg under
nord Of some two or three hundred men
Set,tchments from the Fourteenth Virgin
:. and Second Maryland. When about four
-,;les from Burlington, the train was at.
rocked by M'Neil's men, when sharp skir-
~;sh spsued, in which M'Neil had two OF
tbrse men killed and several wounded The
yederal loss was two or three killed and
twenty or thirty wounded; from one hun
dred and fifty to two hundred horses, and a
number of wagons, stores. &c.
It is thought M'Neil was we'll posted as
10 the movement, length, and value of the
train. as he had his men concentrated in .
rs7ine near the road, and forming line
near mile in length. The train was per-
mitted to pass unmolested until the rear
wagon came up with the rear Of M'Neil's
force, when volley was fred into the front
of the train, This must have been intend
ed as ig nal, for no sooner was this move
made than he whole of M'Neil's force made
their appearance, and commenced desps-
rate attack upon the whole line of the train.
Lieut.. George Il. Hardmau, of Go. Q, l4th
Va, who was riding in the front gave his
men orders to deploy and defend themselves
and the train, and while cheering his men
forward was pierced through the heart with
q musket ball, aud fell from his horse
Capt. LETTERS, Go. B. l4th Va.,) of Pres
ton county, had his horse shot from under
him, but escaped unhurt. VIM. Gardner,
private of Go. G, IA Va.,) of Monongalia
county was killed. About rs of M'Neil's
men, who had concealed themselves in an
old house near by, at this moment rushed
upon the train, cut the horses loose, filled
their saddle bags with provisions and then
destroyed the wagons.
In the meantime word of the attack had
reached Burlington, and reinforcements
we're Immediately sent to assist the Fede-
rails and save the train. M'Neil put off with
his horses, provisions, &C., and eluded his
pursuers Gen. Averill received informa-
ton of the affair and sent out a squad of
men from New Greek, who succeeded in
about twenty of MNeil's men.
The remainder of the Confederates escaped
although at last accounts they were close
y pursued by a cavalry force sent from
New Greek.
