After my dispatch of 11 a.m. I drove the enemy's cavalry in perfect rout to Rude's Hill, Powell in advance. Here he developed a strong force. After forming Cunter I advance again, when he immediately withdrew his cavalry from my front and sent it around on my right, and advanced against me with two division of infantry and artillery. I them withdrew. Shall come back to-night as far as Woodstock. Have taken about fifteen prisoners. I am satisfied nothing has been sent away but Kershaw's division.

General Torbert had some fighting this afternoon at Mount Jackson, but i have not yet heard the result.
