Yankees repulsed at Lewisburg. Information has been received that Col. Edgal's battalion, stationed at Lewisburg, Greenbrier county, were surprised by one thousand Yankee cavalry late on Friday night last, but with consummate skill he rallied his men and fought the enemy with determined bravery, beating them back, and killing and wounding a number. The enemy sent in a flag of truce, asking permission to bury their dead, which request Col. Edgar refused. His force was barely eight hundred men, and his loss resulting from the surprise was supposed to be heavy.
