CHEAT MOUNTAIN, SUMMIT, VA.. March 24, 1862. Dnait. POST :—There have bein a few interesting scenes since we have come to Cheat Mountain, and you will pardon me for writing when the extreme dreariness of our position makes us feel like bringing our ' selves into the notice of those at home. We cannot but 'think of what some of our I ihrefathers suffered for us, when we.cannot sleep, for the extreme cold, and have to carry green pine, almost a mile, to keep our blood from ceasing to flow. • Most of the " quarters," arc good, but the occupants of many of them, awaken in the morning beneath halt' an inch of snow. You would smile to see the difference, in appearance, that exists between a cap tain on Fifth street, in "patent leathers," epaulets and plumes, and the same . indi vidual on Cheat Mountain. in army shoes, soldier's blouse, and a pair of huge woolen "mittens." . • Imagine yourself, t?nanted 50 _SI 00 ... 17a 5 00 _l2 00 ..I0 00 _241. 00 fur winter on the "St. (lair Street Bridge,' about the first of March, and you can imagine the comforts Out are." borne un the breeze of Cheat." We have no pleas ures beyond those of being "officer of the day," and having to visit g uards a mile from camp. with the snow knee deep, and the wind so strong us to cut your face through the cape of an army coat; and receiving letters from "the girls I left be hind me." Furloughs, are productive of marriages, and an increase of revenue to the Post Office Department, so says the Chaplin. who is Postmaster. It . was rumored that Gen. Fremont had superceded Gen. McClellan, in camp, and you would scarcely believe the number of officers who declined being nigger catchers. All, and every officer here would have re signed, except the few who love their country—hut love "one hundred and odd" dollars more. The "examining board" met on the 15th inst. All of our officers were ordered be fore it, so as to make the dismissal of a few appear as the result of a fair compan ion with those who were nut notified to re sign. When our Colonel went down to the Boardi we were all ordered to hold our selves in readiness. Those who were afraid of " not passing," wanted the re mainder to resign, and give as a reason, that we felt "insulted at being ordered be fore the Board." It didn't take, the fable of •• the fox who lost his tail." was remem bered. Capt. Gibson and Scott, were or dered before the Board first. Capt. Scott was aivay on a scout. and Capt. Gibson started immediately fin• Beveriv, where the Board, composed of Brig. (feu. Mil roy. Maj. Sheathed' and Capt. Craig, were in session. When Capt. Gibson got to Beverly the Board Ives just adjourning, giving as a reason " that we might break up the'army.'' Capt. Gibson volunteered for an examination, and was highly com plimented, was assured by members of the Board that he would be reported to Head quarters for promotion, &c. We could have spaired a few of our offi cers, and think that " the Army would not have been broken up" by their examina tion. Why don't some of those gentlemen who criticise the Army, and say bow the war ought to be carried on, come out here ? I warrant you they do not know the differ ence between receiving a bayonet from a lady, and a round from a battery of Artil lery, and two or three thousand muskets. There is a great difference between hav ing read from " the chair"—" The compa ny will . meet here at —o'clock," A. on —, 1862, for parade,"—and the Ad• jutant say, "You • will report with forty rounds of cartridges." Phew I Atid then, when you hear the shrill yell ofa rifle shell, and see it tare the life from the breast of a friend ; when you feel the ball, stirring your hair, or taking your hat off, stop at the nearest tree, log, or rock. look at the locket that contains the image of —; tighten your belt, and, if your nerves will allow you, think of home ; forgive your en emies, with a sax rotiscum, and "go in," at the head of your men. Now little those at home know of what it is to soldier. God bless our own dear country. right or wrong. If right, we'll bravely hoist the stars and stripes ; If wrong. we will as fewdessly redress her,' And quell the craven hearts that dim her fame. gruLtr.,_ NET C•AL, • MOWN AND COKE.DICKSON.

LATEST NEWS BY TELEGRAPH, The Capture of Rebel Batteries on Skidawy Maud. PHILADELPHIA, April 2d.—The follow ing extracts from a letter received in this city, give some interesting particulars of the capture of the rebel batteries on Skida wy Island : U. S. STEAMER SowioLE,Wursaw Sound, Georgia, March 25.—T0-day at half past 12 m., signal was made for the squadron' in Warsaw Inlet, to get under way and follow the Seminole. We proceeded in line of battle np Wilmington River very slowly, not knowing the channel very well. Capt. Gilles being on board the Norwich, which drew the least water, until we,arrived within a mile of the battery, when the Nor wich fired a rifled shell in among a party of horsemen - near it. The round seemedito stagger them, for the horsemen curvetted about about in confusion and fled. Proceeding up a little further, the Nor wich let the rebels have another shell in an encampment that was near the battery, when the whole party tied, leaving the battery and the whole, place deserted. Giving them several more doses, right in the earthworks, we cleared them out entirely, and then manned the boats, went on shore, and took formal possession. Captain Gilles planted the old flag upon the high est rampart himself, and Acting Master Steel ran up with a picket guard of eight or ten men, and planted the old gridiron —the glorious stars and stripes—on the rebel headquarters,. amid salvos of mus ketry, at the same time carrying away the miserable, worn-out secession dishcloth ! that was flying there. The rebels left lit- I tle behind them worth having, but their dinners, which were still cooking over a wood fire. Capt. Giles then ordered that the whole • -work should he destroyed, us we did not wish to hold it, having no soldiers with us. The batteries were then fired in the inte rior, and soon burst into a fine blaze. ear rying everything before it. Skidaway Fort is now among the things that were. The rebel houses and private property were humanely spared, but were afterwards destroyed by the rebelsoldiery. The works on Skidaway were very well built, and had the enemy remained and fought they could hare given us some troub le. It is evident that the Port Royal fight is still ringing in their ears, or else they would not be pet to such an ignominious tight, every time they see a Federal gun boat. The success of the achievement is great. and Skidaway, as well as the than. nel of the Wilmington river, this side of Thunderbolt, is now in our hands. Our glorious untie is still blessed, and our arms wtormus. After all the orks were completely de stroyed. the squadrot consisting of the Seminole, the Wyandoag au the Norwich, steamed back to its atiginiage iiiWarsaW Sound. We have a rebel primmer on board, who says they aro in a bad way at savannah for food. Governor Brown has stopped the distilling'of whisky, as they will wan! the grain for bread, which will be (ithely out in J Id v. Port Pulaski has not yet surreadersd. but must do so before lone, as the batteries intended f,r its bombardment are nearly completed. Important Hebei Movements in Virginia. WASHINGTON. A pril 2.-1 nformat ion has just been received from the N. Y. Times' correspondent on the:Lower Potomac, that contrabands from Fredericksburgh report the town now occupied by thirty regiments of the enemy, the main part of which have arrived there within the past three days.— They report that the steamer St. Nicholas and one other, which formerly plied todif• ferent points on the Rappahannock, us be ing held in readiness io transport rebel troops down the Rappahannock to some point. Other rebel troops are reported as having gone down the. York River to rein force the enemy's position at the mouth, where the rebel be: eries are small. De tachments of rebel cavalry still occupy Acquia Creek, and as far as Dumfries. Another magazine has been found at Shipping Point containing a large quantity of shells. Banks• Division Skirmishing en WoonsrocK, ( Court House of Shenan doah county,) VA., April I.—Gen. Banks advanced from Strasburg this morning towards this point. When epproaching the town, Colonel Ashby with his cavalry, supported by a force of rebel inflintry and a battery, disputed the passage of the U. S. forces, but we passed onward through the town. the rebels frequently stopping and throwing shells, to which we responded with effect. Gen. Banks pursued the rebels to Edin burg, five miles south of Woodstock.— Ashby's men, - in their retreat, burned two iurniiikeand one railroad bridge.

"Then let them be tight girdled. for I'm going to give them a real run. Now, gen tlemen," continued our lent. as he was wheeled out into the hall and towards the open door, "I am sorry to say I am going to put you off with a drag this morning.- 1 thought to have had a deer for you ; but old Crogan is so angry with me for cheat• lug him out of the big Mad:buck the other day, that. he has not left a thing out of bounds since then." " What is thedrag?'' asked some one. Volt shall see. — re plied the Squire. Ilring out the drag!" " Here he is your honor," exclaimed a voice ; and a figure bounded into the hall from a side door, in the fitshion of the sprite" in a modern pantomime. But no sprite, ever so demon-like, could be more hideously formed to cast terror into the souls of the child-audience at holiday time, than was the apparition which so suddenly burst upon the full-grown beholders on ' this memorable morning. It was a living maim, in tight dress, with a handkerchief tied round his waist and a close cloth cap on his head, but smeared with blood from crown to sole, even his thee ; and, as he laughed and showed his white teeth and twinkling eyes through the gory streaks; nothing could he more - spelling. Every one of the strangers started and shrank back. " Don't be afeard, gintlemen, it isn't a murther I committed. It's only myself that's in it. Godroon, at your ear -1 vice, my Lord, and long life to you: just dressed out to: show sport to your honors. Don't you know me, Sir Jeffery?" "This is a sorry sight!" said Jack Man deville, with a stego'start. " Out, damn ed spot !•' extending his hands towards Godroon, as if he would push him back to the door he emerged from. This hit of theatrical fun brought the rest of us eome what to ourselves, and the scene, revolt ing as it was at first, began every minute to have something excittingln it, as the Squire explained that it was ti run with the bloodhounds he was, about to treat us to, 'and that GodroOh wet the ~carry they were to follow. "But, good God, is there no danger of them catching him?' - azked some one. " Oh, not the least, he is used to it." said the Squire. "So are theeels," remarked another. " Oh. ne;ei• fear. there is neither tire nor fryi 11 Z- pies lion. Are you quite ready, God reoe ?•• " Intirely so, sir," replied the " drag" with an alacrity that was reassuring. "Then take your pole, and take care of yourself, and God speed you r" exclaimed the Squire, in accents serious if not actual ly solemn. And as Godroon flourished his leaping-pole and cut a few capers out tti the court before the house; his mist& added, " Mind vour steps, run steadily, and look before yoa leap—no shouting nor screaming at the does—hold your breath well in—mind what 1 say to you, God roon." .`• I will, your honor. What law' are von giving me ?'' ‘• Twenty minutes." •• Hours!" cried Godroon. " You'll want it all. Tubberara bog is a mile off, and the rath is a quarter beyond that. You know you are safe among the elm trees there, Godroon.'"•lt's not straight there I'm going sir ; I must show:your hon or and the gintlemen better sport than that. I'll give a cast into the ould plan ration first " `• Well, away with von ! and once more God speed you:" said the Squire, and the blessing was echoed by every one of the household, who all looked anxious, though highly delighted, as if there was some thing very serious in the "sport" all were preparing for. (iodroou leaped lightly over the fosse by the aid of his pole, and ' flourishing it in the style of a drum major ' marching at the head of a regiment, he I started away, as fearless and buoyant as if' he was only going out for a little trot with the beagles. The servants, too, brought forth the boots and hunting .frocks worn by the visitors the day before ; and (while -we equipped ourselves) by order of the Squire, a low door in the corner of the court was opened, and the kennel display ed in which the blood-hounds were lodged.
