We are still without official advices from Georgia.

t. Before taking leave of Grant's army, we will state that soldiers, just from Colonel Mosby's command, assure us that the Eighth Yankee corps is still in the Valley, and that no organized force has left Sheridan's army to reinforce Grant. From the Valley. Notwithstanding the diminution of force in the Valley, the Yankees still stir themselves occasionally, by way of variety, as will be seen from the following official dispatch: "Headquarters, etc., November 22. "Hon. James A. Seddon: "General Early reports that the enemy's cavalry, in considerable force, drove in our cavalry pickets this morning, advanced to Mount Jackson, and crossed the river.

The thing is a world easier to do on paper than in fact. A private telegram from Augusta, yesterday morning, announced that all seemed safe there at that time. A Brilliant Exploit by Mosby's men — capture of a guerrilla-hunter. One Captain Blazer, a man remarkable for skill and courage, was, some time since, detailed from the infantry of the Yankee army to operate as a guerrilla-hunter in Northern Virginia. He was given a lieutenant and eighty picked mounted men, armed with Spencer carbines, and directed to devote himself especially to the capture of Mosby's men. In the course of several months, by indefatigable scouting, he has managed to pick up a number of detached squads and individual members of Colonel Mosby's command, and has made for himself a creditable reputation for energy and vigilance, both in the Valley and in Northern Virginia east of the Blue Ridge. But, hitherto, it has never been his fortune to encounter an enemy equal to himself in numbers. Of lat

Last Friday, Captain P. A. Richards, commanding companies A and B, first squadron of Mosby's command, made an expedition into Clarke to hunt up and to do battle with the doughty Blazer, if the latter so willed it. On reaching the neighborhood of Cabletown, seven miles west of Snicker's gap, scouts reported Blazer and his force advancing from the direction of Winchester.
