Virginia The reason assigned BY he prisoners was
that the old cavalry deserted too often 1t is evident
that the coast hes been stripped of all the veteran force

The rom the east is that the enemy have land
ed cavalry force Tampa, and also force below
ST. Augustine Their object is to gather up the ctte,
deserers and traitors and if not driven back R
prove damage to Us. A force nov gathering will no
doubt make their tips dangerous.
Prisoners taken at jacksonville few days since say
that there more than 1900 troops there 800
negroes and the remainder are Yankees-but they are
well fortified guuboat lies opposite the town. Some
