‘ We have information that our fearless and daring soldiers in the West have had, within the last two days, three severe skirmishes with the enemy, with success. We are strongly fortified on the Sewell Mountains, and our Generals are confident that we can whip almost any number that may be brought against us. Every preparation is being made for a big fight in this quarter.
