FROM WEST POINT.

The Yankees in the vicinity of West Point are
committing great depredations and outrages-
They have burned mills, dwelling houses and
barns in King and Queen county as well as in
Gloucester and Mathews.
In the latter county, near the hneeof Glouces-
ter, about dozen of the wretches committed the
most shameful and brutal outrages upon the per-
son OF Miss Carey, a young lady of high respec-
liability Tne injuries to her person were so
great that 1t was feared she would die.
Residents in that section of country say that
regiment OF cavalry would effectually check these
depredations. Ii the men of the country would
form themselves into guerilla parties, they could
clear the country in a week.
Some days ago our troops took down below
West Point two pieces of artillery, and fred in-
to transport, disabling it and causing great
commotIon aboard. Shortly after the departure
OF our artillery, the Yankees landed troops from
two gunboats, and burned three dwelling houses
with all the outbuildings. Enquirer OF % ult.
