NEW YORK, Nov. IS.
The HeraIGs dispatches from the Val
ley say:
General Sheridan's cavalry have had
another very brilliant and successful en-
gagement with Early's army.
On Monday last, three divisions of Union
cavalry in the Valley; under Custar, Pow
ell and Devin, commenced q movement foI
the purpose of ascertaining the rebel posi-
ton and strength. Devin marched up the
Lursy Valley and the two other divisions
pushed up tho Shenandoah, driving before
them small parties Of rebels.
No resistance of importance was met
with until Tuesday The main infantry
army, consisting of about 5000 men, and
division of cavalry, were found st Rood's
Hill, position almost as ssrong as Fishers
Hill Fighting Immediately commenced,
and was continued for six hours, which,
during the greater part Of the time was
quite severe.
Early made repeated attempts to flank
Custar and Powell, in all Of which he
failed.
Some magnificent charges were made by
the Union cavalry.
The rebels showed little spirit during
the engagement.
After gaining sufficient information Of
Early's strength, objects and position, the
National forces commenced to retire
Some feeble attempts to follow and annoy
were made, but without any success to the
enemy, and Custsr and Powell returned
down the Valley with their commands in
safety, having lost altogether, in killed,
wounded and missing, only about sixty
men.
The dispatches furnish confirmation Of
the report that some Of Early's men have
been withdrawn from the Valley, but they
have been replaced, the rebels say, by de-
tachments from various sections.

It will be seen that there is a falling off
in the Union majority in last yesr Of about
$4,000 That this is caused by the failure
of Union voters to poll their ballots is
proved by the fact that the falling off in
the total vote is just about equal to the
diminution of the Union majority. The
Democratic party has MAIDEN gains. On
the contrary the Democratic vote this year
lacks 3,477 of that given for Vsllsndigbam
