Culpeper Court House had then ceased to be
the railroad terminus at which the supplies
from Richmond for Lees armies were put on
wagons. They are now taken to Staunton by
rail, and wagoned from there all the way Up 10
Winchester.
This change was, doubtless, occasioned by
dread lest Sisel might cut OF their trains which
be could do if they continued to vel the road
from Culpeper Court House via Sp-rryyiils
and Warrcnton, now that his cavalry horses
have been recruited.

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

DISASTROUS for the army to move forward at

our readers that the Government is sinRevery
Effort, and that successfully, to place our army
in n condition TO prosec ute the campaign tri-
umphantly, and we think the public may rest
satisfied that when these arrangements are per-
fec;ad there will be no dilatoriness on the part
of the Gov eminent or the Generals in rhe field,
and that when eur forces move it will be for a
campaign to end only in the suppression Of

perfectly harmonious cooperation between the
civil and military departments Of the service,
and the country may confidently expect that
each II il, proper sphere will exert every en-
