It las sometimes been said that our officers
ought to prevent the sending of information
from our army to the G. s. A But those who
are remote from the field Of action can have
little idea Of the sagacity Of the rebels and the
endlesEness Of their resources The devil can
put On the garb Of an angel of light, or can
come. In bis own form, as may seem best to
suit his purpose. But as our officers become
better acquainted With the country and the
ways Of the people, this nice work Is hecom-
ing less and less easy Of accomplishment.
4 correspondence has just come into my
hand, which will open. to you the mode Of op-
Grafton most frequently followed. 7 will give
you the correspondence, and explain Its
causes.
