GUERRILLAS-We learn that the band of guerrillas who were lately committing depredations in the southern part of Campbell County, and who left last week with their booty, are again in that section, having been driven back by the Bracken County Home Guards.
It is reported that the guerrillas are commanded by the notorious Jim Caldwell. A force has been sent out from Falmouth to capture the party, which it is believed will be accomplished, as the militia of Bracken county have cut off the retreat of the rebels by their old route through that county.
