A despatch from Powell’s River Bridge says
that on Friday of last week three brigades, of
cavalry, about 1600 strong, and 400 mounted
infantry, under the command off Col. Love, ot
the 11th Kentucky, skirmished with the rebels
under Gen. Jonesj on , the Virginia road,
thirteen miles from Cumberland Gap. The
fight lasted three hours, and we held our posi
tion until dark, although attacked by a superior
force. We then withdrew to our camp, three
miles in his rear. p
At sunrise on Saturday morning Jones’s
pickets were advanced, when Love moved to
the front to meet the enemy advancing in line,
with four thousand infantry and cavalry, and
three pieces of artillery. Colonel Love then
fell back three miles, skirmishing all the way,
when, the enemy ceasing to follow, Love en
camped. The next morning he sent all the
available force two. miles in front, and had a
lively skirmish with the enemy, twice charging
the rebels and driving them back with heavy
loss, since which, up to the afternoon of the
fith, they have not appeared in any force on
cur front. ( j
Our loss in these skirmishes was five killed,
eight wounded and three missing. Captain
Newport, of the Bth Tennessee, was killed.
The enemy’s loss was ten killed and eighteen
to tw-enty-five wounded, and the result was an
unsuccessful attempt to take Cumberland Gap.
. All is quiet now in this neighborhood. Gen.
Garrard, the new commander at this post, is
determined to hold the Gap at all hazards.
We have nothing definite from Knoxville.
DEPARTMENT OF THE MISSOURI.

LATEST FROM THE SOUTH.
Headquarters Army op the Potomac, Feb.
7.—The Richmond Enquirer of Saturday says:
One hundred and twenty-nine Yankee prison
ers from Newbern, N. C., arrived yesterday,
probably the crew of the gunboat Underwriter.
The Enquirer says, that in all probability all
the newspapers in the Confederacy, except the
fewdoing Government work, will be obliged to
Mobile, Feb. 4 —Ourforces occupy Corinth
and Jackson. Nothing was destroyed there,
but eveiything was carried off.
r The Yankee cavalry in strong force, crossed
; the Big Black yesterday, and were met by
it Jackson’s cavalry. A lively fight took place.
Jr Mobristovn, East- Tenn., Feb. 5. The
’'trains are now running to Rogersville June
's tion. There is nothing of interest from the
- front.
A large force of Yankees, supposed to be
about eight thousand, have crossed the Tennes
see river, near Germansville. The object of the
raid, no doubt, is the destruction of the iron
■works in Cherokee county.
The Richmond Sentinel says that General
Pickett retired towards Kingston, N. C., after
the fight with the Union outposts at Batchelor’s
creek.
Charleston, Feb. s. —The enemy keep up
an occasional fire on Sumter. Six shots were
fired yesterday morniDg, and three shots last
night. Eighty shots were fired at the city to
day. The enemy’s batteries and monitors
keep up a slow fire on the wreck of the steamer
Presto. 1
The Richmond Examiner of the $d inst. has
file following:
Charleston, Feb. 2.— The steamer Presto,
Capt. Harvey, from Nassau, with dates to the
29th ult., in attempting to run in about 2 o’-
clock this morning got ashore off Sullivan’s
Island, and remains immovable. Most ,of the
cargo, which is on Government account, will be
save.d in good condition.
The enemy opened a heavy fire on the steamer
at daybreak, and continued it all day. It is now
believed that the vessel will be totally wrecked.
The enemy have discontinued the firing on
Burnter. One hundred and thirty-six shots
were fired on the city from 5 o’clock yesterday
till 5 o’clock this evening,
t Orange Court House, Feb. 2.— Reports re
ceived here tliis evening from several sources
state that General Early has captured a force
ef Yankees.at Petersburg, Hardy county, Va.,
estimated at eight hundred.
Morristown, East Tenn., Feb. 2.—A perfect
dearth of news prevails here. The situation
remains unchanged. The arrival of prisoners
taken at the recent affair .at Smithfield is'an
nounced.
It is claimed that one hundred and nine of
cur men were captured. The rebel account of
the engagement does not differ materially from
that given by the Union accounts.
DEPARTMENT OP THE GDLF.
New York, Feb. 6—The steamer Columbia
Smx. ai 7f ved > w ith New Orleans dates to the
3utu Hit.
Politics were at fever heat in New Orleans
When the steamer sailed, and it was thone-ht
that the Horn Michael Hahn h Jlhe in Jde
track for the Governorship.
• District-Attorney Waples was also promi
nently mentioned for the position.
J. T. Farhart is likely to be nominated for
. Attorney-General, and Robert Montgomery for
Treasurer. J
The steamer George Cromwell was adver
tised to sail on the 30th.
-o? a /“ ast f r La wrence had been robbed of
®oojUuoj which was taken from a sate.
.The Columbia also brings Havana dates of
the 2d mst., from Vera Cruz on the 21st ult.,
and-from the city of Mexico to the 13th ult.
It reported that the French had occupied
Zacatecas, but this was denied by the Sociedad.
Juarez’ family was at Monterey, but his own
whereabouts were unknown. The taverns and
houses in Monterey were filled with refugees
from’ Texas. There had been a few skirmishes
in Mexico, but no important fighting.
The occupation of Recadalyra and Agnes
.Calientes by the French, is confirmed.
■ Admiral Milne left Havana in-the Nile, for
Bermuda, where he is to meet his relief, Admi
ral Sir James Hope.
(S’ It is reported from San Domingo that the
Dominicans had attacked a Spanish supply
steamer, and had made several attempts to re
cover the- town of Sari Cristobal. A council
of Generals was held at Havana on the 30th,
at which General Vargas stated that nothing
could be done in San Domingo without forty
thousand more troops, and that even when the
rebellion should jbe put down, it would be ne
cessary to keep twenty-five thousand men there
two'years. Vargas is the commanding General
in San Domingo. ■'
It was stated by others that over six mil
lions of dollars had been spent in, Cuba, from
Cuba alone, and that there are now over eight
thousand sick in the hospitals of San Domiugo,
Porto Rico, and Cuba; also, that there are no
more men, money or equipments that can be
spared from Cuba, and it was determined to
memorialize the crown to abandon the Islaud
of St. Domingo.
The steamer Cuba, from Vera Cruz, brought
a large quantity' of arms for the French, but
finally delivered them to a rebel agent at
Havana, and an attempt would probably be
made io run them through the blockade. The
schooner Alice was loaded for this purpose,and
a schooner would probably sail on the 2d ior
the South.
■DEPARTMENT OF WEST VIRGINIA.
Cincinnati, Feb. C.—By an arrival from the
Kanawha we now learn the particulars of the
capture of General Scammon and staff, and the
burning of the steamer Levi. The steamer was
lying at "Winfield, on the west side of the ri'-er,
when thirty-five guerillas appeared on the op
posite side. Thirteen of these crossed in a
ikiff and took possession of the steamer, cap
turing the General and forty officers and soldiers,
all of whom were asleep at the time.
The guerillas afterwards burned the boat and
paroled all on board excepting, Scammon and
three officers. The,.prisoners were mounted,
and the party set off for the interior. Forces
have been sent in pursuit of them.
FEOM KANSAS.
Washington, Feb.~ 7. —Private injformation
received here, to-day, from Kansas, states that
the Legislature of that State, yesterday,
agreed to go into an election for a United
States Senator in place of General Lane, not
withstanding the majority of the members
oP the present Legislature were elected with a
distinct understanding that no election should
take place during the present term or before
the new Legislature "should assemble next
winter. General Lane’s term will expire on
the 4th of March, 1865.
Major General Blunt will leave for General
Curtis’s Department to-morrow, lie is to have
command of the district of the Indian Terri
tory, with his headquarters at Fort Smith,
and is to be supplied with an ample army,
not only for defensive but for offensive opera
tions.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, Peb. 7,1864. —Gen. Sedgwick
has been assigned to the temporary command
of the whole Army of the Potomac.
The papers were filed yesterday for the third
National Bank m Philadelphia, capital one
hundred thousand dollars.
■ Lieutenant James W. Browne, of Philadel
phia, has been reinstated in the 7th regiment
United States Army, and ordered to Fort
Schuyler on recruiting service.
It is rumored that old regiments now in
service will be filled up to twenty-four hundred
each; and that no more new cavalry regiments
will be authorized, there now being enough old
regiments in service to make two hundred and
fifty thousand men if they l were full.
The War Committee yesterday had Rodman,
of the Rodman guns, before them, who testified
that he received one cent per pound royalty.
The i Committee will nextstake np the frauds
and expenditures of the Quartermaster’s. De
partment of Alexandria.
There are now in Camp Benedict, down on
the Maryland shore, over three thousand colored
soldiers. They are drilled and ready for the
field. All are slaves.
Several refugees from Richmond, consisting
of three women, four boys and one girl, to-day
presented themselves at the Provost Marshal’s
office. 4 They were poorly clad, and reiterated
the tale of destitution in the rebel States, but
could give no information relative to the rebel
military affairs. Captain Tod dismissed them
with the permission to remain in tlie city upon
taking the oath prescribed in the President’s
Proclamation.
The accident at Long Bridge was caused by
the slide of the bridge being open. The usual
led flag was displayed upon the watch-box at
the end of the bridge, but the train was seen
approaching far up Maryland Avenue, and
Leigh Whitney, of the Invalid Corps, who was
on duty with lhc guard at the time, ran up the
road a distance of over two hundred yards, and
waved a flag also; at that point Engineer Wm.
H. Sadler, reversed his engino, bat the grade is
exceedingly heavy, and the train slid down the
grade despite the reversal of the engine. The
draw, at this time, had been pushed open
nearly half way, and the engine, judging from
its position in the water, went over its whole
ength, and pushing the draw back and smash
ng this end considerably, went down wheels
first, and nothing now is seen of her but the top
of the smoke-stack.
The.tender of the engine, in falling, appa
rently broke its couplings, and doubled over
upon the end of the engine. It was followed
by one of the cai-s, one end of which is com
pletely mashed, the front wheels lying upon the
tender. The car immediately behind this one
ran under it, and caught the leg of a soldier,
seriously mashing the limb. The engine was
the Chauncey Vibbard, and the train consisted
of five cars loaded with lumber. There were
on the train twenty soldiers of the Gist regi
ment, Pennsylvania volunteers, who were on
their way to the front to join their regiment, all
of whom were more or less injured. Four of
them have broken limbs. All the wounded
were conveyed at onee to the Armory Square
Hospital,and we have not been able to obtain the
names of any except the following John
Young,wounded in the cheek and arm sprained;
Thomas Best, arm badly bruised; Aaron jveis
ler,thigh bruised , Reesle, log badly mashed ;
Hugh Gorman, leg broken. The engineer,
Sadler, was never seen after going on the
bridge, and there is no doubt he went down
with his engine.
SJ'One soldier, who was taken but of the water
badly wounded, says that while he was under
the water, his hand appeared to touch the head
ofamanwho was apparently hanging by the
neck. This was; no doubt, the Engineer Sad
ler, who had been running on the road but
about two months, but was heretofore a trusted
Engineer on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
Isaac Corbett, the fireman, saved himself by
jumping from the tender, just as it was passing
upon the bridge.. Captain D. H. Cuyler, of the
Invalid Corps,who has command at the bridge,
is in no wise responsible for the accident, as
theuniversal testimony of.the parties whb were
present is, th at he took all usual precautions
Men are now clearing away the wreck, and ef
forts are also being made to recover the body
of the engineer.
.The accident will probably prevent the use of
the bridge for a day, as considerable injury is
done to the draw.
The following despatch was received to-day
at the Navy Department -.
United States Flag Ship “Minnesota,”

Welles Secretary of the Navy: The supply
