Raid in Western Virginia.

The Yankee General Averill is reported to be out on another raid. It is satisfactorily ascertained that he started from Point Pleasant, in Mason county, with a large force — stated to be as much as four thousand men. When last heard from he had advanced as far as Sewell Mountain. It is probable that the enemy at Beverly, in Randolph county, will also advance.
