Dear Courier: -Simm yoHtcnlay all
is boon quiot in and ubout our camp.
Tlioro has not, no lar ns I have board,
boon oven a skirmish between the out
posts. We suppose tho Federalists are
oolobraling tho day at Murtinslmrg.
Wo could distinctly bear cannon about
noon. In tho skirmish of tho 2d, near
Martinnburg. 20 of oqr men nro missing
besides tho two killed and seven woun
ded ; they wero probably taken priso
ners. Seventy-four of tho LincoluUcs
were taken prisoners ni)d soipc suy 200
of thorn killed.
Wo lmvo dono first into eating and
resting to-day, and will ho in excellent
condition for hard work to-morrow. I
was quite sure yesterday there would ho
a light to-day—it did not occur—what
will happen to-morrow 1 will not at.
•tempt to predict, hut to mo a light
seems much less probable than yester
day. 'flic cncm t , have full possession
j of Martinsburg—they number about
3000. Nearly every citizen except thoso
of notorious Union .sentiments wero
taken prisoners. AJ. 1).
j Mote Men to Unco Uncle hnm's Music*
j We arc gratified to learn that our fol
low townsman, Col. J. W. II, Unuf.r-
1 woon, is organizing a Regiment for Vir-
| glnia service, ami expects immediato
orders.'
Companies applying would do well
to arm themselves as completely as pos.
sihle with home arms, so as not to bo
detained, should tlioro he a delay of two
or three weeks in getting improved
weapons.
Col. Underwood hns secured the ser
vices of Lieut. Henry Cleveland, late of
tho Army, and other competent drill-
officers, and lias already some seven
companies in his Regiment.
Lieut.•Cleveland, who is at present
stopping hero, was formerly connected
with tho editor nl department of tho
Augusta Constitutionalist, but who, like
many oilier gallant spirits in the same
position, concluded that, in the present
juncture, the sword was mightier tiffin
the pep, and thereforo lie, at his coun
try's bidding, would use that awhile.
We understand lie is a thorough and
lliciont drill oilfcer.

This organization will no doubt ho
more efficient and satisfactory than Ah.
former. The company now number
some fifty men, and is daily receiving
accessions.
Cherokee Artillery.
Capt. Yeiser, of tho Artillery, has
been in our city for tho past few days,
beating up recruits, and procuring arti
cles necessary for tho thorough outfit of
))is coiqpauy, as ho expects to roooivo
marching orders for Virginia in a very
short time.
They havy already a splendid half
battery, consisting of three brass six
pounders, and will receive, in a short
time, three iron ritted guns from No-'
blc’s foundry, .making a lull battery,
so they will go ready for aotivo and
immediato service.
Capt. Y. would like to r?ceivo gomo
twelve or fifteen more recruit*, and any
I persons wishing to join tho company
can see him to-day, as ho does not leave
until to-night, or at any time after tills,
by applying to Col. C. M. Pennington
#35Mt is rather discouraging to see
busipess at such a low ebb. Tho mer
chants nil seem to ho content, however
to wait patiently for tho return of bet
ter days. W« hoped that when wheat
ready for market, there would I
a demand for it, at good prices, and
business wruld resumo something of
its accustomed activity, but it) this, as
in many other thifigs, . wo have been
disappointed.

U to the Southern Confederacy
they lmvo no husinos* there, for they
must know the day of compromises
have long since passed. Wo don’t ask
for any more than that they.should let
us alone, and keep on their own side of
the line. Tho conduct of theso gentle
men don’t look much like neutrality.
They certainly acknowledge their alle
giance to Abo’s Congress, and if they
obey him in one paiticular, might they
not in another.
gvVy-Wo would call the attention of
Iho inferior Court to tlie fact, thatsome
of tho bridges in this county need re
pairing. which should bo done belor
fall trade commences,
would not advance, or learo tlie town
of Martinsburg, where, for several
reasons, it would have been unwiao to
attack thorn, they (our troops) came
back to their old quarters, where their
touts had been left standing and bag
gage rem lined. Tho men wero growl-
inb like bears with soro heads, because
they were not allowed to march on
Martinsburg and pitch into the thieves.
1 mixed freely with tho army two days
at Dsrko-.vdle, and 1 am ctriain that
tho vote would have been unanimous in
favor of an immediate attack, without
regard to tho number* ol tlio enemy.
It would not do to attack them in tho
town of Martinsburg, where there aro
three or four thousand inhabitants,
with women and chidren, i ll and
young, sick, lame and blind; who,
if ordered away, would in many cases ho
unable to go, or bo obliged to take
shelter in tlio wood’s without anything
to eat, or a place to sleep. Moreover,
tlio town would no doubt ho destroyed
by firo during tlo engagement. Tho
enemy, too, would have ail the. build-
ings of tho town for fortifications, and tutur
plenty of water during tlio action,
while our men would perish or become
exhausted for want of water, if tho en
gagement lasted several hours, as it tin
doubt would. Nobody doubt* tlio abil
ity of our army to tbrasli them then
or at any other point, without rrgari
to their*numbers ; but »>ui (Jcncials,
hope, know that prudence is tlie Lot
ter part of valor, and will not, if tie"
can avoid it, unnecessarily expose
