On arrival on the opposite side of the river,
Gen. Patrick was conveyed to the Girard House
by the military, where he was detained until
the reply was ready. 10 the meantime his com
municatlon was conveyed to Gen. Longstrcet.
whose troops are encamped a short distance
Outside the city. As the demand WAS made upon
the civil authorities, the Mayor sent an answer
which was evidently written at the dictaton of
Gen. LongstreettO the effect that the com plants
enumerat d should be remedied so far as firing
on our pckets and furnishing supplies and ma
terial to the confederate army was concerned ;
also that the rebels would dispute the occupa
non OF the city by the government force. He
complained of the snort space of time allow I'd
for the removal of the women, children and sick
soldiers.
The giving of amy more time. as requested,
is now under consideration. Permission has
been gives 'he citizens to run one train from the
city. but only for the conveyance OF women and
children.
The news to-day received from jackson shows
that he had rented house in Winchester tor
his family. His troops are in front of the city
with regiment OF cavalry at Martnsburg.
