has sent all the spades in Gen. McClellan's
army to the rear, and has ordered muskets to
the front. At all events there was no digging
there for the first time for many weeks. On
the day after his visit to the Peninsula, steps
were taken to bring loyal blacks by the humid
reds, from the Valley of Shenandoah, within
the line of General Styles army corps. To
what military purpose they are to be devoted
is not known.
