SoUFHB EsTERN FTRGINTA.-9Our latest
newspap r advices from this section, date
ot late as the 25th ult. The Lypchburg
Republican announces that The enemy
occupied Saltville on Tuesday, the 2Oth.
and held it, it is stated, uutils Thursday,
when they retreated towards Bristol
&e learn that the place was held by
dVBdt two hundred Reserves, under Col.
Preston, the most of whom escaped cap
ture. The works are reported to be but
little damaged, and we understand Chat
persons who have visited them since the
occupation by the enemy, think they
can be put in working order sgain by
the lst of February. A large quantity
OF salt, already gotten out, was destroyed,
aud all the buildings at the place wore
burned. Sew eral pieces Of artillery were
also csptueed by them, but they got but
little else O my kind.
General Breckinridge, at the last &C
counts, was at Saltville, preparing to
fsilow the enemy on their retreat. Be
yond continued skirmishing with their
rear guard, no further fighting has taken
place than that already reported.
A gentleman who passed over the rail
road from Bristol to Glade Springs after
the enemy advanced, says the bridges
between those - - al burned, but
that the track rLs 4s.44j ju.ed.

Why THEY TOOK NEsRoEs.-The Nil
legeville Recorder says Gen. Sherman
boasts in his dispatch TO Lincoln of having
t. ken IN his trip through Georgia. seven
thousand slaves. The motive on the part
o. his troops in doing this, was, as avow-
ed while they were in Millegeville, to sell
them as notwithstanding for good
healthy feiio" they could get from five to
seven hundred dollars a piece. This is
characteristic of the Yankees.
