From the Valley.

We have some late news from the Valley, through
the Rockingham Register. A formidable raid started
Out from, the enemy's lines on Friday or Saturday
week, information Of which caused not little excite
ment along up tia Valley. Commissaries and quar-
ermasers were busy removing their stores to places of
safety It was reported that they had passed up tbs
Page Valley but this afterwards proved to be mis-,
take and it ascertained that they had GRO ssed
over to TIE eastern side of the Blue Ridge Tee fol

throws some light on the matter

We drove them several miles upon another corps in
reserve. Brig. Gen. Humphreys was painfully but
not seriously wounded Our LOGS il killed very small.
Everything encouraging. Nothing heard of the raid

Since the above was written the Register adds, we
have beard from the raiders" The body which was
supposed to be advancing this way consisted of abou.
900 cavalry which was cut off in the fight at Berry

bly, passed down near the base of the Blue Ridge to
their stronghold at HaFper's Ferry.

Turn but moment from where beauties smile
Shut to the volume which you PORE
And con my rambling, haltns epic Ger.
Not fraught with Genius, nor inlaid with Wit
Claiming no charm for Rusticus Cit
A feeble ripple in songs obscure bay
Presuning on that license given by the day.

Trusting not that it, but You will pay.
The year just dead and with his fathers laid
Embalmed with many sigh by made;
Bes, by the smiles that to the happy came
Now lives with no longer, but in name.
Yet in his life, so short and yot SO long, ....s
Shaded so darkly by oppression's wrons
Grew History, and no day went by
In all his life but Fame with earnest eye
And pen of STEEL some deed of glory bright
Saw and writ upon her page in words of light.
Alas! some other pen, with grief and shame,
Inscribed each deed Of crime which in the name
Or right and order = done.

Have made our hills and valleys orce 80 fair.

Our sons, our brothers, and our fathers blood
Make offering meet t appcass avcnging God
Oh may the sacrifice, SO freely given,
An offering ample be TO Heaven;
And may that foulest blot upon our page
That scorn--that kissing by-word of the age
BE blotted out, that ours may truly bs
The home of the trave--the land of the fresi
Pray Heaven the New Year ushered in,
May see mid all this and horiid din
OF battle, the last foul shackle broken
May all who d make Gods image here . slave
Go with Rebellion to u fostering grave
Ten thousand times ten thousand fathoms deep,
BY datk Oblivion rocked in dreamess sleep!
Like Virgil, he who sings in times like these
Must sing Of arms, surely fail to please.
Turn them to where, with al the pomp of war,
On many well fought field, our dear ones are.
Seek not amid the pomp and pride Of kings
For heroes; 10, the willing lightning brings
To our ears from out the last fierce fight
Our schoomates names, bright with the haowsd light
OF Fame, and crowned with the victorious wreath,
Wrested right bravely from the jaws of death.
