ARMY NEWS.

Averill having paid visit to the We.
& Tenn. Railroad, we think it probable
that our forces will return the compli-
ment BY paying visit to tie Bait. &
Ohio r. Road. We understand that
Gen. Imboden has his present head
quarters in Winchester, and that Gent
Rosser's brigade of Cavalry has gone to
Martinsburg. If the irclement wealth
er does not prevent, we may expect to
hear some news of interest from that
section in short line. We have not
learned the present location of the in
fantry, but suppose they will be found
in the right place at the right time.
The Richmond Wing says that the
signs of a Winter campaign On the coasts
Of North and South Carolina increase,
and the deep-laid plot which began
with Grants retreat from Ringgold de-
velopes itself rapidly. The Yankee
preparations are 50 nearly complete
that we may look for the first blow
within week or two. Charleston and
Savannah are both menaced, but the
opinirn that Wilmington is to be the
point of main attack gains strength dali
|ly. The President and the War Depart
ment are rot asleep. They know that
the enemy's fleet is now large enough,
and enough of his t. oops idle to enable
them to make combined, simultaneous
at, ack on the three points named. :
Many men and q eat vigilance will be
required to ensure the defeat of all the
assaults It is no secret that proper
dispositions have been decided upon
This matter was, no doubt, fully dis
cussed when Gen. Lee was in the city.
Our scouts report movement among
the Yankees in Cuipeper, A large
foTce-said 70 be two or three army
corps-have crossed to the South side OF
the Rappahannock. Whether Meade
contemplates an advance, or is making
a feint to draw attention from other
quarters, time will discover.
The condition of the roads will GER
tainly suspend operations for several
days TO come.
The enemy are still pegging away at
Charleston.

distinguished Confederate General of

GEN. AvsRlLL&kAID.

Gen. Averill's thru raid in Western
Virginia is over, anaas in the cases of
his two former oneG he succeeded in
making his escape. sH:sla escape was
a very narrow one, and, like Fulwller's
entrance into heayeIf was effected "mit
a tight squeeze" lie owes his escape
to two causes. The first, the false intelli-
gence which induced Gen. Early to or
der Gen. Fitzhugh Lee to change his
course from the direction of Covington
towards Buchanan. The second, the
failure of the detachment sent by Col.
VIM. l.. Jackson to burn the Island Ford
Bridge across Jackson's River bstore
the enemy could reach it. Though Col.
jackson did not succeed in capturing
the command of Gen. Averill, yet he
caused no little less to it, as he captur-
ed 1875 prisoners with their horses and
equipments, seven officers, including
Lieut.. Colonel, Averilps Adjutant Gen
eral, the ambulance train complete, Az
erill's horse, his servant, his letter-bock,
his maps, including accurate maps OF
fifteen or twenty counties, and large
number Of carbines and revolvers, and
Averill was forced to destroy his entire
train. Some forty or fifty negroes were
captured and returned to their owners.
Gen. Avenll's official report of his
operations in this aid, dated Edray, 70.
caLontas, Dec. 2lst., gives very ex-
aggerated account of the damage he it,
fiiictad u,on lis at Salem. In his report
he says
! SAT Salem, three depots were destroy
ed, containing 1900 barrels Of flour,
10000 bushels Of wheat, 100, 700 bushels
of shelied corn, $4,000 bushels of oats,
1900 barrels IF meat, several cords OF
leather, 1000 sacks Of salt, thirty-onc
boxes of clothing, twenty bales OF cot
ton, large amount Of harness, shoes
and saddles, equipments, tools, oil, tar,
and various other stores, and one hun
dred wagons. The telegraph wire was
cut, cooled, and burned for half a mile.
The water station, turn-table, and three
4 cars were burned, and the track torn
up, and the rails heate and destroyed,
as much as possible, in six hours five
bridges and several c-lverts we're de-
stroyed over an extent of fifteen miles,

AUGUSTA RAID GUARDS

Our absence since the "Augasta Raid
Guards were called out the last time
to prevent the enemy from reaching
this place by the way Of the pass in the
| Shenandoah mountain has prevented
any notice of their campaign. AS be-
fore, they responded promptly and
cheerfuIly, and repaired to the Noun
tains West of here where they expected
to meet Averill and his force. AS is
known, Averill did not come that way
and tie augusta raid guards" were
denied an opportunity to show with
what bravery and efficiency they would
have Eaet him. Though they did not
meet the enemy, they had to endure
exposure to the 'speltings of the pitiless
storm" The rain fell for day or two
in such quantities as to render
all the streams full and most Of them
unfordable. The weather was so cold
as to freeze the water and make the
the mountain side sheet of ice. Such
is the weather to which the members Of
the "Augusta raid Guards" were expos
ed. When it was ascertained that Az
Grill was at Salem on the Va. and Tenn.
Railroad instead Of West Of the pass
at Shenandoah Mountain, the forces
guarding that point were ordered away,
and the augusta Raid Guards" were
ordered back to Staunton and dismissed.
In a few days it was ascertained that
the enemy were coming up the Valley
The 'sAugnsta Raid Guards" we're a
gain called upon to meet the invading
foe, and, as before, responded promptly.
As soon as the enemy learned that cur
"Guards'' were advancing upon them,
they wisely determined to take the
back track, and retreatcd down the Val.
ley so fast that it was impossible to O.
vertake them. Some persons mistaking
the Harrisonburg Provost Guard for
1"Auststa Home Guard" enormously
stated that portion of the Home guard
ingloriously fled on the near approach
of the enemy. The Home Guard act
ed with such calmness and bravery as
to secure tn: confidence of Gen. arly
to that degree that when he wanted the
most reliable pickets at New Market
he selected the Home Guard as the reg
iment from which they should be taken.
It will be observed that the augusta
raid Guards did not stop at the boun-
Diary of Augusta but passed through
and beyond the large County Of Rock
|ingham into the County of Shenandoah
Alas, there were no Home Guards in
either of those Counties to greet the ar
| r;yol 81 o,,rc ord ,,n;to with tlo,,, r.
defend their 0aUn homes.

RUINOUS POLICY.

The policy advocated by some of the
members Of Congress tends to discourage
our own people and 70 give encourage
ment to the enemy. They seem to
have partaken Of the s'insane root" and
tohave become as "mad as march hares. "
Those who advocate the policy CT put
ting eue5y able bodied man in the ARMY
must be, if they be good loyal citizens,
infatuated to a degree bordering on in,
sanity, for they are giving "aid and
camfort to the enemy" Are we IN
such desperate condition as to demand
IsEch an exhausting and ruiaous policy :
Are VIC on the verge of subjugatiol's
Are we reduced to the dire necessity OF
putting all we have at stake, on the
cast Of a single die? We do not think
so, vet such must be the case if the pol
policy advocated bv these congressman
he the one which should DO adopted
IF every able-bodied man be put into
the army, how will the army be fed and
clothed (? Grain does not grow sponta-
neously in this country, nor does raj
ment grow upon bushes. On" soldiers
are men who need food for the stomach
& clothing for the back. If we can, with
great difficulty, barely feed and clothe
our soldiers moao, how would it be Il
every able bodied man should be requir
cd to go into the military service?-

: Longstreet's corps, says there are 5000
3 barefoot men in that corps alone. From
