Skirmishing With the Rebels
The Enemy Throwing Up Entrenchments.
Cincinnati, Sept. 11. —The Wallace mounted scouts made a raid in the rear of the rebel lines last night, and burned a mill used by them for grinding corn.
There has been picket skirmishing along the whole line west of the Licking River all this afternoon. We lost two men killed. The enemy’s loss is not known.
The enemy are throwing up breastworks in front of Fort Wallace to-night. They will be shelled out to-morrow.
