A report reached ns last night that a battle had been fought, and that Gen. Middleton had ten .men killed and thirty wounded. On the report spreading, the men evinced the wild- est enthusiasm, and although it was about 9 o'ciock p. m., most of them were anxious to strike tents at once, and make a night march toward the scene of action.
