THE YANKEES Ar WOODSTOCK.

IH1h n ANAGE3 Ak WSOnS GSC ChAs .
On Wednesday Of last week, says the Lyneh-
burg Repu5licGB, as We learn from = private
letter, about five hundred Yankee cavalry made
a raid upon the town of Woodstock in Shenan-
doah county, and while there carried things
with pretty high hand. They arrested eisi-
zsn of the town, Mr.. WELSH, and took him
off with them as a prisoner. They also plum
dsred many private dwellings, broke open mest
and corn houses and robbed them of their con.
tents, and carried off several negroes and
number Of horses. During their march they
deliberately shot down three citizens living on
Cedsr creek some five or six miles distant from
the town, for ne reason tha. they could give
but that their victims were odd secesh scoun-
drels," to use their own elegant language.
The ladies' of the town were insulted and
abused in all conceivable terms of brutality by
these vsndals, and in some instances personal
viol e was only prevented by the determined
80 fearless bearing of these unprotected OBJ
i :. of their diabolicsl abuse and insults They
sfsid in the town only few hours, and return
ed toward Winchester, taking with than large
quantity of all kinds of plunder.

F Oar Vicksburg correspondent alludes to
the destruction of some Federal craft in the
river in front Of that city On Sunday night last.
The daring little tug, with her well fTeighted
barge eOnsoTts escaped apparently unhurt, until
half the psrilous voyage was accomplished,
when well directed she'll exploded in her FIRE
chamber, scattering The brands in every direc-
ton, and quickly enveloping the barges in
flames She still sped en, when a second shot
tore of the sterE, and she commenced going
down. The crew escsped to the barges, which
continued to Goat down, until completely de-
stroyed. The most of the crew were taken off
By our picket boats The firing WAS excellent,
aud gave general satisfaction to the thousands
Of lockers on. It viii, we think, be some time

This distinguished commander, says the At
lanta CoHfederaey Of the 29Ih ult., reached cur

He was accompanied by Mrs. Bragg who has
been 50 long confined to her room with severe
illness at Manchester, Tennessee. She has not
yet recovered but is able to travel. The Gen
eTal we learn, viii leave her with her relatives at
West Point, where she can be cared for.

which he can secure them is By running our
batteries with tugs and barges. This is very
precarious mode of supplying large army in q
hostile country. The batteries ct Yicksbnrg are
IS vigilant as ever in preventing any craft
carving conlraband goods from passing down.
and the supplies intended fer Grants halffAm-
ished soldiers are doomed to find resting place
in the bottom of the river in front Of Vieksburg,
and viii be moro useful in fattening the catfish
than in feeding Yankee soldiers.
Last night, notwiths standing the beautiful
moonlight, making the midnight almost as light
as day, one of their tugs attempted to carry a
cargo Of provisions by our batteries. She had
two large barges in tow-oae on each side
loaded and protected with bales of hay. As
she csms within rang', our guns opened, and
sent forth their deadly messengers with spirit
and effectiveness that has hardly been surpassed
by any previous blosksds running. One shell
passed through the furnaces of the tug and
scattering the fire ell over the craft, she was in
an instant enveloped in flames, and minute
or two after another shot struck her stern snd
must have carried away large part of her
bottom, as she filed and sunk Immediately.
The hay on the bargss in the mean time was
blazing in great fury, and the crew who sur
rendered aud called for quarters, were taken eff
by skifs sent out to bring them in. Twenty
three, including the captain, were brought over
and placed in charge of Capt Hatch. They
report that the boat and barges were heavily
freighted with provisions for Grants army be-
lew-that the whole of the Federal force is be-
low, and that they are short of provisions. If
the craft had got through ssfe it was to be fol-
lowed by another tonight They mus! be in
great want of provisions, or they would not I'M
dertake to rua the batteries iu such beautiful
clear night NEsToR.

I have not seen Ger. Poik's report Of the bat

arising from the vict,ry st Psr-yvile, except
that that he ordered Gen. Polk to make the

The Late Affair on the RappahannoeE.
E,,Co, tdc Picb,oo,6 E5zyDirpj. of the llM.l


About $50 Of our men, who were wounded
IN the battle al KelIy's ford on Saturday,
reached this city yesterday morning. From
their reports and the information derived from
other sources we make up some account o1 the
affair. Hoke's and Hays brigades Of harjy $
division, with two batteries OF artillery, We're
on picket duty north of the kappahannock, at
Kelly Ford The two brigades numbered on
y about 1000,
About II clock the enem3 made sudden
and unex pected attack in such force that their
skirmishers alone seemed TO outnumber our
whole force, and 50 quietly had they approach
ed that they seemed to our men to have llSen
out OF the ground. They were evidently vel!
informed Of our force and position, and had
come down to surround and capture Us. With
this intent, their first effort was TO cut Us Oft
trom the river
AS they were forcing their way toward the
river, the enemy closed around them, and
hand to hand fight ensued, In which numbers
on both sides were killed About 500 Of. our
men succeeded in reaching the river and escap-
ing. Many are said to have been drowned IN
the crossing.
Our whole loss in this unfortunate affair, IN
killed, wounded and missing, could not have
been more than 1900 Hays brigade only
numbered 900 men at the battle Of Gettysburg,
and it is not likely, It's strength has been much
increased since Hoke's brigade, It IS not
likely, numbered more than 1000 or !, ,2OO.-
OF the two brigades 800 escaped.
Col. Goodwin, formerly one OF the Provost
Marshals of Richmond, was in command OF
Hoke's brigade, and is said to have been
wounded.

lance from the river
The Municipal Government Of the city Of
Portsmouth has not been working smoothly
Ir some time past. The alleged reason tor
this Is that q lack Of money has existed n the
treasury from the fact that no fixed rates d
assessment were made and consequently no
taxes collected. as there was no money to pay
tha guardians Of the city, the police and many
other officers resigned. This mas caused an
order 10 be issued for an election to take place

be at once collected.
