relieve his mind he should certainly go as far
as his petitioners would desire.

rebels as'a hospital. Nearly 200 of our sick
were then, who bad been taken prisoners by
the reboil when they entered, but whom they
were compelled to lean behind again. They
say they were treated in the kindest possible
manner,. The people 'say i that Lee's prop-'
Ltmation had very little effect. The rebels
did not get muck if any over two hundred re.
ernlts in the whole region. Before leaving
they blew up the iron railroad bridge over the

prevents railroad communication farther out
