FoRr DAVIDSON, HENRICO 70,
Va, June II, 1862.
Mr. EDIroR: Although it may have ie-
ceived no authoritative name, the small earth
work near us might properly bear that Of the
General who superintended its erection, and
thus venture to call it. Our position here
rests on the Chickahominy, below New Bridge,
close to the rebel lines, which here meet, and
from here rest upon it, Though not particu-
lar exposed it is still an important one, and
such are our works and the force to defend
them, that VIC should be little dismayed to
find their force advancing upon us, though
that would almost be out Of his line Of tao
tics.
A few shells we're thrown pretty near us,
few days since, but fortunately did us no Sc
rious damage, one or two. only being hit by
fragments and slightly injured. shot from
the rebel position near the river, fred into
crowd about the 9Th Regiments grounds last
week, and seriously wounded sergeant o.
Go. T., in our regiment, and another person
slightly shots have been fred from the
same spot ON those going TO the river 60 bathc,
hurting no one, however. A few plckeis
have been shot. but the lines are generally
very quiet, though the outpusts of the two
armies are so near that the foe may be
heard relieving theirs, and even the sound of
their laborers and the hum of their camps
occasionally reach our attentive ears. Con-
versation too is carried on between the pick
cts, and some small exchanges are made. On
the whole, picketing is very slightly danger
Gus, and rather an agreeable business-in
warm weather and shady places, at least, and
Of the latter there are plenty hereabouts.
Such is'our position and manner Of life now
as TO our crossing
Early on the morning of the 9Th inst. we
we're reused and ordered TO pack our KNAPP
sacks for a march, pleasant order certainly,
with our blankets and overcoats saturated
with rain. OF course we obeyed, but soon
found that we were not to cross New Bridge,
the scene of our recent labors, and many
were the coniectures respecting our destina-
ton, ere long solved, however, by our again
approaching the river, indicating an intention
to cross at some point further down. After
considerable delay in preparing the way, we
at last crossed on Gen. Summers Grape Vine
Bridge-so called in its reconstructed state
a rough, corduroy concern, aud walked on
strngers across the marsh beyond it. Hay-
ing assembled the bluff we pitched our tents,
but soon the order came TO move further
and we trudgcd on TO our present position
and aid down, many Of US without tents, in 0
muddy wheat field The following morning
we went out and reconnotered-wit without get
ting into a skirmish, however--and went or
picket in the afternoon. Fair Oaks, with IL
/ battle field. is a mile and a half to our left.
