GuERnLLA OUTRAGE. we're In
formed last evening that Henderson was
full Of gusrrillas yesterday, aud that they
had killed a gunboatman who had in.
causiously gone ashore from the Fair
Play. We hope this is not true; but if
it is, Capt. Groves should at once de-
mand the assassin to be delivered up to
him. The guerrillas now in that region
arc simply small gangs OF thieves and
murderers, who should receive no mercy
from the hands Of Union officers.

The Baltimore American has the following:
Waterford, Va, Loudon Co., Feb "A
cavalry battalion has just returned from a
long scout in Loudon. am informed that no
enemy was found in force, but information
was received that large force of rebel cav
airy has shown themselves at Upperville, and
that their object was to protect the rebel con-
scription. At Harmony, Piercesville, Wood
Grove and adjacent towns the citizens were
in terror lest they should be taken from their
homes forcibly. Many took to flight and
rejoicingly found an asylum at Harper's Fer
ry, Berlin and Point of Rocks.
Gen. Sullivan has caused the following or
der to be published
Western Virginia, Hdrper's Ferry, Jan. 2Sth.
General Order No. 9.-It appearing that the
leaders OF the rebellion against the Govern
ment Of the United States have passed laws
conscripting all males between certain ages,
and have appointed agents TO enforce such
conscript laws, and such agents having made
their appearance in the counties Of Loudon.
Berkeley, Jefferson and Clark, not occupied by
or under the control Of the insurgent troops,
and believing that large portion of the citi-
zeHs OF the counties are anxious to remain at
home and preserve their faith and allegiance
to the general Government and receive the
protection which is due them, and knowing
that the poorer class of the citizens of these
counties have been hostile to the usurpation
OF the rebel authority, compelling them to
shoulder the musket, while the richer mems
sons have worn the sword, notice is hereby
given to. the inhabitants of said counties that
upon representation being made to these
headquarters by any person of the conscript-
ing and enforcing into the rebel ranks of
father, husband, brother or son, the nearest
and most prominent secessionist will be ar
rested and imprisoned, and held until the re-
turn Of such conscrpt.

Berlin, Jan. 23.-The Danish Government
has demanded delay in order to assemble the
Regsroad, and with its concurrence to with
draw the November constitution, and subse.
quently to fulfil the engagement entered into
towards Germany in 1851 and 1852 In this
case this delay should be granted which is
probable the Austrian and Prussian troops
will not cross the Elder. A month is neces-
sary for the convocating of the Regsroad.
Hamburg, Jan. 22.-The Federal Commits
sioners have issued proclamation, dated the
2lst, which says: Troops under the COM
mand OF Field Marshal Wrangel have crossed
the frontier of the Duches. Considering the
protest made by several governments to the
Federal Diet, we have commissioned General
Hake to declare to Marshal Wrangel that we
expected the usual notification. We cannot
recognize the troops as belonging to the Fed
eral reserve, but we must submit to facts,
which are unavoidable. We have received in
structions from the President of the Diet that
the entry of the Austrian and Prussian troops
would not prejudice or interfere with future
operations in the form of an execution, and
the administration of Holstein and Lannen-
burg, and that these troops would only pass
through these Duchies. We therefore call
upon the authorities and inhabitants of the
Duchies TO give the Austrian and Prussian
troops the required cooperation and to receive
them in a friendly manner.
Duke Frederick has replied to deputation
from Altoona that he hoped soon TO be able to
accept the invitation from Altoona.

LOUISVILLE, Feb. 6.
Last week three brigades of cavalry corps,
about 1900 strong, 400 of whom were mount
ed, under command of Col. Love, of the 18th
Kentucky, skirmished with the rebels, under
Gen. Jones, on the Virginia road, thirteen
miles from Cumberland Gap, lasting three
hours. We held our position until dark, al
though attacked by superior force, when we
withdrew 10 our camp, three miles in the rear.
At sunrise Saturday morning Loves pickets
were attacked, when Love moved to the front
to meet the enemy advancing in line with four
thousand infantry, cavalry and three pieces of
artillery. Col. Love then fell back three miles,
skirmishing all the way, when the enemy
ceased following and Love encamped three
miles in front, and had a lively skirmish with
the enemy, twice charging the rebels, driving
them back with heavy loss, since which time
up TO the afternoon Of the 9Th, the rebels have
not appeared in any force in our 'front.' Our
loss in these skirmishes were five killed, eight
wounded and three missing. The enemy lost
ten killed, fifteen to twenty wounded, result
ing in an unsuccessful attempt to take Cum
berland Gap. simultaneously attempts were
made from Jonesboro and Tazewell roads.
All quiet now in the neighborhood. Gen.
Garrard, the new military commander of this
post, is determined to hold the Gap at all
hazards. Nothing definite from Knoxville re-
