THE NEWS.
FROM TIE Willy.

OEisial despatohes received on the 23i state
that the enemy attacked Gsu. E.ilg late yes
terdsy (23d) at FistcrS Hill, and succeeded in
forcing back the left Of his liae ard throwing
force in his rear, compelled him to abandon
the position, leaving twelve pieces Of csunon n
their hands, though losing but few men.
The official news, published above, vas suf-
foiently astounding for one dag, afsor ths pub
lie he'd become pretty we'll assured :hat 10
further re,rogede would be made, tLc assurance
arising from the known strength os III, pss:-
tion selected by Gen. Early. L. aessns. how
ever, that the enemy 80 largely cusnumbored
our forces, especially in cavalry, tho favosite
arm Of Sheridan, tha. the strength Of the po-
sitiQn availed seoil.;ng against an oycrwheln,-
ing flank movement. Our cavalry, weakened
by their losses on Monday wore in no coLdi-
ton on Thursday to resist treble t5cir run-
berp, moved against them, and gave way, thus
exposing the reur Of the position ct Fishers
Hill. This compelled q hssty abandonment
of the place, and rapid rotreat upon New
Market, in Shenandoah, whore General
Early is said to have determined once to make
a stand. But the enemy COL timing to press
him'i in front and flank, be fell back on Friday
to Harrisonhnrg, aad on Saturday passed
through Port Republic, and stopped At a pest
station known as Keezlstown, about thirteen
miles from Stanton, md Fix from Port Re-
publi,, on tie road between the Valley turn
pike and the South river road. The entire
movement was made without what may bo
termed fight, General Early deemiDg it bet
ter strategy to avoid cne than to risk ono un
der tho circumstances. On Friday, however,
Hsnkipg party from Sheridan'O forces hav-
ing penetrated the Page Valley, with view
to reta1d any reinforcementa t5e. lcight have
been on the route to EARLY FROM that direc-
ton, was encountered by force Of Our caVal-
ry and whipped. At last accounts, on yesicr-
dsy, Early was still Ut Keezttln, whore It
was believed he would make stand, 81
though neny fears were naturally ezprnsd.d
that 10 would continue kis retreat. Many
rumors were afoat, growing out of confu-
sion Of the battle on Monday, and the retreat
since Thursday, and representing terrific bat
ties and appalling losses. 1t is hardly neces-
ssry to do more than mention the fact to clear
up the confusion.
