About tho first of December, General liampton, with a detachment of his bri gade, crossed the upper Ksppahatgiock, surprised two aquudrons of Federal Caval ry several commissioned officers, and about one hundred men, with their horses, arms, colours aud accoutrements, without losson his part. 2. On the fourth of December, uncsrlbe direction of-Colonel Beale and Major Wal ler, with a detachment vf sixty dismoun ted men, of the .Ninth Virginia catalry, General William F. Lee's brigade, crossed the Huppuhannoch below Port Royaf, in skiff, attacked tbe enemy's cavalry pickets captured 49, including several commission ed officers, with horses, arms, &c., and re-cronod tho river without loss. 3. On tho llth December, General Hampton crossed the Rappahannock with a detachment of his brigade, cut the ene my's communications at Dumfries, entered the town a fw hours before Seigel's corpa, then adancingon Fiedericksbur,, captur ed twenty wagons with a guard of about (J0 men, and returned safely to his camp. On the Itkh December he again crossed tne river with a small force, proceeded to Oecoquon, surprised tbe pickets between that place and Dumfries, captured fifty wagons, bringing many of then across the Occooion in a furry boat, and beating back u brigade of cavalry sent to tboir res. cue. He reached tho Rappahannock with 30 wagons and 180 prisoners. 4 On the 25th December, Gen rvuart. discovered posted in great strength behind a stone fence, whenlbe order wua given for our min to fall tackturning obliquely to the right and left.

The charge was repea ted a second aid third lime, when tho ene my fled in great disorder. All accounts agree that tbe enemy's retreat wua a per fect root and panic. Our loss is not so severe as was first re Eorled. It is said that our total loss in .11 I . is . auieu, wounaee. ana missiag win not ex ceed one hundred and twenty. Most of our wounded are but slightly in j art d hot in tKe hind or ariar.
