ING account OF tue DdJlIe OF Mount kfaNtOrd-
On Sunday evening the enemy, in yerl
heavy force, supposed TO be about ten or lively,
thousand strong, and consisting of infantry
cavalry, and thirty pieces Of artillery, made It,
attack upon detachment of our troops, tbet
near Mount Crawford, twelve miles the othe1
side of Stanton, under command of Genera
William E. jones'
At the time of the attack large portion o.
General Jones command had been detached IL
operate in another direetion-where, il is MOI
prudent to say--and had not come up when The
enemy made their appearance. Our forces made
gallant resistance, but i. the face of overpow-
ering numbers of the enemy, to whom our forces
we're but as mere handful defeat was inevita-
bic. At the point where the fight occurred Their,
are two roads divergiug, one leading to Staun-
ton and the other to Waynesboro' a small town
on the Central Railroad, On the other side OF
Blue Ridge mountain immediately ut its foot;
both points are about equally distant
Fearing to fall back upon Staunton, lest the
enemy might cut them of by moving on Waynes-
boro' our forces retreated in the direction of the
latter place, saving their artillery and wagon
trains. There was rumor on the street that
our forces had been routed, ard had sustained
considerable disaster in their retreat but this is
not so. Despatch received yesterday morn
ing by the Secretary OF War stated distinctly
that we saved our artillery aud wagon trains.
pretty good evidence that our retreat was con
Quoted in good order.
The worst news of the whole affair is, that
General William Z. Jones WAS certainly killed
in the fight. This is melancholy news indeed
for he was decidedly one of the best cavalry off
GERS in the service, and one whom the country
can iii afford to loseat this junclure He was an
officer in the old army, if we mistake not, where
he left a record Of much distraction, and was n
brave and fearless spiritas ever drew sword
His operations in this war have been mostly
confined to Western Virginia, aad arc too fresh
in the minds Of the public TO need any review a.
this time. Since his demise the command de-
wolves upon General Vaughan, who, we believe,
is of Tennessee The enemy, we learn, VA,
under command Of General Hunter, successor ..
the vanquished Dutch General Sgel.
The dispatches received yesterday hy the de
partncnt were confrmatory Of the facts stateG
above 1t was understood that despatch had
also been received last evening, reporting thai
the enemy had taken Staunton. fortunatel.
for us, if this even be true they can do US bu,
little harm, unless they burn the town, whiet
VIC think they hardly will do, all our stores and
supplies having been removed from there rs
much us week ago. Rumors were flying
around the city last night reporting that the tt'
enemy had also reached Lexington aud burned
the military institute.
