[Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch]a teaching incident. Norfolk, March 28th, 1862.

The battle of Kernstown.an interesting Narrative. [correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Mr. Jackson, Va., March 28, 1862.
On Saturday, the 22d inst., Gen. Jackson rapidly moved his little army from camp, near this place, back to Cedar Creek, twenty-six miles, in one day, and camped there that night, making his headquarters in Birdsburg, which was evacuated by the enemy the day before.
Early the next morning (Sunday) he again moved forward, and the artillery opened on the enemy near Kernstown about 12 o'clock. The fight was made by the Yankees as they fought at Manassas, first making a demonstration on our right and then throwing their whole force rapidly to our left.
An "artillery duel" was kept up until about four o'clock, our forces moving gradually to the left, when the enemy's infantry advanced in force.
They were met by the 37th and 21st Virginia regiments, and repulsed three times.
Three times the Stars and Stripes fell, and three times did our gallant troops
