| I have a dispatch from my son, adjutant
of Garland's regiment, at Manassas Junction, saying the enemy was
advancing, and that our troops were going out to meet them. The
Arkansas regiment is here armed; also other troops. The president of
the Orange & Alexandria road is here, who says he can carry
nearly a regiment by the mail train at 5 o'clock in the morning. |
