Friday night, January 3 , 1862. -We had exciting news to - day
from almost every quarter. At 2 o'clock an express arrived from the
Alleghany mountain , beyond Monterey, with intelligence that the
Federalists in large force were at Greenbrier river, and also at , or near
Huntersville . An attack was anticipated , and reinforcements were re
quested. We hear that large reinforcements have been moving up
to-day from Richmond towards Centreville , beyond Manassas , in an
ticipation of an attack from the enemy in that quarter . General T. J.
Jackson has moved with his division from Winchester towards Romney
and we hear of skirmishing in that region . One or two regiments
passed yesterday evening , by railroad for the Greenbrier region , from
which our troops were lately withdrawn .
AI is still inaccurate. We try to vet the obvious errors within our ability. Please comment if you see an error!
