Il is not improbable that great battle
will be fought within day or two and has
perhaps been. fought to-day. All depends
on Gen, I.ee. n II he will stand Tor y bsitle
one is pretty certain to occur. Gen, Meade
started out this time bent on decisive cou-
flict with the enemy. He was urged to it
by the President, Secretary Stanton aud
Gen. Halleck. aud was not at, all aysrye,
especially under such circumstances. j, ~,
The army is In excellent trim aud in nu,n-
bers il must be superior to the enemy by at
least 10000 aud perhaps 3UOO0.
There issno reason to lear defeat, and
there sre many reasons for believing tha,
