We have again to chronicle one of those pc
rodcal visits of Rebel niaraudcrs and plum
drrcrs, to this vicinity. TO which we haze been
subjected ever since the beginning of the war,
On Monday last at about i o'clock, q.
NJ. three or four hundred Rebel cavalry, as
estimated BY sonNc persons who saw them, be-
longing to the different bands that have 50
bitten been infestug this locality, suddenIy APP
peartd at New Creek md having completely
Surprised the garrison stationed there cap
tured it ALMOST without resiStapcc. II. fact It
is said the foit was taken and the guns turned
upon or men before they fully realized their
situation. S.- .t
81 Our troops there being portions of the Fifth
and Sixth West Va, Regiments, hH6 num-
bering about three hundred men, were all
captured, except what few may have escaped
to the mountains in the confusion.
The extensive Government buildings used
for Quartcrmaster and CommssAry purposes
were MI destroyed with their contents that
could not be carried away. ,..
A large number of horses and cattlc were
also captured The whole loss to the Govern
ment is estimated at very large amount,
but not knowing the facts we forbear speaking
on the subject. uf
, Cumberland, of course, was much excited
in anticipation of . visit from the same party,
and on Tuesday night it is said tie .pickets at
Wiley's Ford were driven in. Up Id this
time, however no emmy has made Ills up
peQrancc. .'.t." f.. ..r
We dislike very mnch to say anything cot,
demnatcry of our military authorities, but
cannot refrain on this occasion. If the facts
be true as VIC have heard this has been one Of
the most incxcusable ilnnders OF the war. 1t
WAS a complete surprise in broad day light,
ind that tho with a know ledge of the fact that
an enemy was near. We have nd words to
express our feelings at such conduct. We
do not know where the blame properly at
taches, if there be any, but we do hope thai
the proper authorities viii take TIE matter in
hand and fully investigate it and punish the
guilty parties whoever they may be.
