A Letter from Yest Virginia.
Bfcvr RLV, West Va., Nov. 16th leG3.
Frie.no Kow : As j our readers hav not
I
lieard anything from 1.8 fcr some time 1 pro-
pose giving you bn i -.ketch f our health,
happiness and v here .bouts. Wo have been
spending our suiiiru jr and ill. thus lar. tniom;
I lie mountaius ot v, estti n V irgiuii. W ecame
to this place on the first of May last, anil drove
out a fuw rebels who had remained here, either
for the purpo.'e or taking plunder from the
inhabitants or to get rid of the- service.
And, since that time we have not permitted
reb to se his foot in this place, unless he .had
urst surrendered himself a prisoner ot war.
We have not always been here, during the
time named, but when we left wo generally
wer, t in a direction that drew their attention,
aud gave them enough to do to get out of our
nay. General Bill Jackoon attempted to
come into this place at one time during our
absence, but he found the tenth Virginia in
fantry and one battery here that held him in
check until we fell in on his tear and soon
succeeded io driving his brigade of horse
thieves and robbers into the surrounding
mountains but not without considerable loss,
for many of our carbine balls hailed there-
treating rascals and brought them to a speedy
halt. But wo must confess, we met with one
repulse among all our successful! skirmishes.
He met the rebels at a place called Kocky
Gsp, amoug the mountains, on the 26th and
27th of August, in which we had to contend
with double our numbers, and that with only
half the atnunition requisite for the occasion.
However, alter a desperate straggle of thirty
six hours, we were forced to retreat lor the
want of amunition ; which we did in good or
der. But, after coming near a mile, we haitod
and formed a blockade across the road, leav
ing one battery there heavily charged with
our last rounds of grape and canister. Thus,
concealed behind the works, our gunners
await the approach of the pursuing loe, which
made their appearance in the form of cavalry.
When in hnilin? distance our gunner
opened a full volley on them, which left their
entire force dead and wounded in Hie the
road. Here Iheir pursuit was bafik-d and
their army thrown Into confusion. Our way
of re treat being in a deep ravine, bounded by
high mountains on both sides, it-was impossi
ble for them to (lank us lor a d istance of twen
ty miles, and by this means we were enabled
to gain a point ot reinforcement. But the
time of retribution has now come. General
Averill has again crossed the mountains into
the Valley ot Virginia, with all the available
force from this place, and" found Genera fjack- .
son safely quartered in hrg huts on the Elk J
river. Here we had a flight skirmish with
him, which resulted in an entire defeat and
rout of his forces, who ded in wild contusion
to the mountains. Alter . committing his
buildings to the flames we pursued his retreat
ing army until he vis reiulorced by General
Eckelman from Lewishtirg. They then took
their position on the summit of a high moun
tain, which descended in almost a precipice
on every side, and thus shelterd by their po
rtion they made an ob.-tinate resistance.
But, General Averill was up to the emergency,
lie caused his iiriuy to be divided in four di
vision?, fctid ordered all to commence the
charge up tie mountain at the same signal
The infantry and two battery's were in front
ami the mounted forces on the. flanks and in
the rear. On the first onset the front was
forced back by repeated volleys of grape and
canister from the etietnies heavy guns on the
nights. At this moment a loud cry of exulta
tion was heard from tho enemy within his
works, and a hiurah for Kocky Gap. Instant
lyour forces rallyed mid charged on them
wiiii increased vigor aud determination and
were soon on and inside their works, beatintr
the rebel gunnt-rs from iheir positions with
the huts of their rifles. Thus the scene ended
at this place, and the rebels were forced to
aoandon their position and flee to the toad
h ading to Lewiburg. And now, the sullen
roar of the cannon aud the tattle of musketry
is no longer heard, but the hidious cries of
the wounded and dying came rolling across
"mc iici'i. jy. lew moments later ana w e
were all aaain in our saddles and pursuing
ma retreating teliels, wholly Ibis t'me bad
got a ttai t of us. However, a short time
drought us up with thetu. And now the work
ot riistioction commenced on their demoral
ized and ftifihtened ranks, for we never drew
up the r;iiis of our dashing steeds to hear lhe
pitioit cries of those who fell !v the wavside :
but, with a single thrust or blow of our sabres.
we passed ou and left death to Cnish his work
in our rear, i iiis learfu 11 conflict lasted for
a distai.ee ot eight miles, and only ended
wiu-ij mlit closed the scene by casting her
sal. e shtoiids of darkness oe"r all the face ol
nature. Then toe camp flies were lighted,
and thousands of weary, nar-woin 6uldieis re
cline upon the cold ground to reposo for the
night. When tho morning had again dawned
i.pon us, and the golden orb of ltijht began to
Cist Ids refulgent in tide nee on the face of
nature to clear away the thickning fog, we
beheld our enemies had continued their flight
during the night, and thus lelt us far behind.
We then took up our inarch for Lewisburg,
and when we reached that place we found it
almost deseited ; but they had left their com
missaiy and quartermaster storos, which of
course fell into our hands. A small detach
ment was sent into this place with the cap
tured property and prisoners. So we are once
more e-icamped on our old ground at Beverly,
with the prisoners safely quartered in a log
barnT They cry pitifully for hard tack and
pork. General Averill, with the remainder of
the brigade, has not returned yet ; and it is
very currently reported in camp that Im has
hid several skirmishes in the n. ountains. You
shatl hear from rrn again. W. C. A.

A Letter from East Virginia.
Camp near Brandy Station,
Culppeper Co.. Va., .Nov. 13, 1802. f
Peiesd Row : The position of the army of
the Potomac, in the main, is unchanged. Gen
Bulord has recorinojtered lhe enemy's posi
tion on the Rapidan. Old rebel Camps indi
cate no scarcity of provisions in Lee's army,
and from letters picked up we learn that rx
tions are commuted at 75 cents per dav,
There is no enemy in force on this side ot tho
Rapidan, though guerrilla parlies hang about
our lines and frequent collisions occur.
Yesterday, Gen. Russell, whocommanded the
brigade in the assault on the rebel works at
Rappahannock station, accompanied by a
deputation from each regiment participating
in the charge, presented to tien. Meade toe
eight rebel battje flags capturt-d at that time.
The gift was a surprise to Gen. Meade, no
notice having been previously giveu of the
intended presentation. Gen. Uusj-dl present
ed tho flags in the name oi his command, de
signating the regiments the tith Maine, the
5th Wisconsin, tlu 49th Pennsylvania and the
119ih Pennsylvania.
Gen. Meade responded as follows :
Officers and men of the 33d Brigade, 6th
Corps. I receive with great pleasure these
battle flags, evidence of tne good conduct and
gallantry you disu'ayea on the 7th inst. The
assault of the euemy's position at Rappahan
nock Station, entrenched by redoubts and rifle
pits and defended bj artillery and Jnfwtry,
carried as it was at the Roiut of thebavonet.
a work that could only be accomplished ,
the best of soldiers, and ol the result o
which yon may Justly be proud. It gives rue
great confidence that, in future operations, I
can rely ou the men under my command do
ing all that rueu can do. And, although it is
my desire to place you in such positions as to
avoid, if possible, recurring to such severe
tests, yet there are occasions, like the recent one
when it is the only and the best way to pursue;
and to feel, as I now do, that I command men
who are able and willing to meet and over
come such obstacles, is a source ot great sat
isfaction. It is my desire to do justice to all
the troops who have distinguished themselves,
and it is my purpose by every means In my
power, to have those soldiers rewarded who
have merited such distinction. Soldiers, in
the name of the army and the country, 1 thank
you for the service you have rendered, and
particularly for the example you have set,
which, I doubt not, will bo followed and emu
lated on future occasions."

Matthew O Tate : Friend : 1 have been
thinking ot writing to you for some time, and
as Brit was writing a letter this morning, I
will drop you a few lines to inform you that I
am well, and that the rest of the Company K
bo8 are enjoying good health : and, r riend
Math, the boys all sincerely hope that you
will get well. They all wish you was back
with us again, well and hearty as before that
march in April last. Well, loving friend, one
word more : If you need a few "greenbacks"
before you get well, I will send you what lew
I h ive, and some ot the rest say 4 hey will do
tho same. I have lost a ranch loved brother
since I saw you last. Ho died in his coun-
trys cause; and if it is my lotto die in the
same cause, I am satisfied, to do so. Excuse
this short letter. From Your friend.

Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines iu general, through distrust of
their ingredients and effects; I yet know of no
sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to
the benefits he believes himself to hcyc received
from any simple preparation in theftope that ho
may thus contribute to the benefit of others.
I do this the more readily in regard to Hoof
laud's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M.
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced a
gainst them for mauy years, under the impres
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
I am indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker,
Esq., for the removal of this prejudice by proper
tests, and for encouragement to try them, when
suffering from great and long continued debility.
The use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the
beginning of the present year, was followed by
evident relief, and restoration to a degree of bod
ily and mental vigor which I had not felt for six
months before, and had almost despaired of re
gaiuiug. I therefore thauk God aud my friend
for directing me to the use of them.
