INTERESTING DETAILS OF ' FACTS,
WAsaniarpx, Feb. 25.
One of General Lee's Orderlies r private Tay
lor, of the Fourth Virginia Cavalry, came into
our lines yesterday, and arrived here to-day.
He has been in the rebel army about fifteen
months, and the last three months has been
on duty at. General Lees headquarters,o Or
derly to General Lee, whose winter qUarters
are upon the road from Orange Court House
to Verdiersville, about two miles from thefor
mer place.
General Lee lives in a tent without any
floor in it, having refused to have one put in
as others were having done. He keeps very
much to himself, never drinks or swears, and
is very popular with the army, and who hive
implicit confidence in the old man ==
General J. B: Stuart has hie headquaiters
about two miles from General Lees -hea -
quarters, and on the road to Robinsords
River. His camp is on the side of the moun
tain., in the woods. His fOrge is reduced. by
casualties, desertion, by loss of horses, and
by going home to recruit, until they -have
scarcely enough men to do camp duty with.
deb Stuart is very gay, drinks bad whisk - y,and
gives -a great many patties, at which -he enter
tlins a great many friends from the army Egad
frousitte.surrounding country.. ;
Mr. Taylor is a young man and has rela
tives inVhib. His chances'fOr .knoWing the
strength and condition of the rebel army were
good, and his story is credited4at the War De
partment, and he has been given, transporta
tion. to Cincinnati. He says 'there are not
now left in the vicinity of Orange.s-Court
Lionse, in Lee's entire command, over -*O . ll-
ty-tive thousand men, if there are that many;
that the last month Lee -has given - furlorighs
liberally to all who would re-enlist, to:go li'dane
to recruit; that from fifteen to thirty. days
,are
given them.
General Lee tells his Officers' thai 'ite'iYAn
keeis will be - tilling up their armies in Mareli,
and he must be ready for them. He - says he
will-havesixty thousand men by that 'time,
and can. bold double that number in Check.
When- we made our last movement acrOss.thel
Rapidan, while Butler threatened Rie.hmond,
they were apprised of our movement `when it
commenced by citizens coming in, and when
our troops crossed the river and surprised
their pickets,' General Lee was engaged in
sending mento Richmond= by rail, and told
Gen. Ewell that this Move on his front was
only a feint. •
They have but two corps now, under Gen
erals A. P. Hill and Ewell. !Ile latter i,sfpll,
but the foriaer has been depleted to'aiktolg
street, whose whole corps is still . absent.
Their horses have suffered severely from the
want of forage, many thousands haying died,
and hundreds of men are withont 41013S,Etild,
clothing to keep them warm. Over 1 , 5;o - hi:in-.
dred men have been shot dining the; vpter
for desertion. -
They were captured tryin g
to get over*-- to t
our lines and at home, not being willing to,
return to the army. He says - two things;:'
generally of . some account, have ceased to any 'value In the rebel army; they are'
paper money and life. Private soldiers pave
lcrreg ceased to use money to :buy anything.,
Sutlers are no more, and _ anything wanted is
either obtained as a gift or stolen, generally
the latter
Many refused to take their pay
to them, alleging that it is worthless, it taking
nearly three months' pitY to buy one dollar in
gold. The soldiers' frimiliesi all over the
South have long been objects ,of charity, aid;
been forced to beg or stealth "eep life in their
keep
wasted frames, and this is ten ' g o more than
anything else, to demoralize heir army, and
may retard the return'of 'thos home Ott fur- ,
lough.
