The following dispatch contains the latest intelli
gence from Sheridan 1t seems Early has not re-
treated SO fIr as might have been supposed
BERRyvILLE, Va, September 6--The enemy axe

there are no indications of Early retreat up the
Valley ut present.
The cavalry corps which left Rippons store on
Friday night have returned, having ascertained that
the enemy i'll strong force beyond the Oocoquan,
Recruits and convalescents from the hospitals are
arriving in great numbers almost every day, and
are being rapidly sent forward to the front.
heavy rain storm has prevailed since last night
and still continues, making the transportation OF
supplies to the front very difficult.
1t was expected the enemy would have attacked
i'll our position at BeTyyille yesterday, and pre-
paratons were made at the field hospital for the
reception of one thousand wounded but We were
disappointed and your correspondent holds to the
opinion that the enemy have idea of assuming
the offensive but will be perfectly content for the
present with acting the defensive and holding the
Valley.
The prisoners captured III the fight on Saturday
number some seventy.
Up to the time of writing this dispatch, there has
been no fighting since Saturday and, with the ex-
ception of little picket skirnshing, every thing Is
perfectly quiet.
