June IL.
Both armies occupy their old positions.
About the right and centre there has been
considerable skirmishiug and cannonsding,
but no damage has been effected by either
party. The men are well protected behind
high and strong breastworks. The rebel sol
diers converse with ours In the most amicable
manner, but opinions being too freely ex
changed, as well as sugar and tobacco, such
lamiliarities have been stopped by special or
der.
The rebels have large gun mounted on
the railroad track. 1t throws six-inch shell,
and is the subject of much mirth among our
men.
Gen. Meade rode through his lines yester-
day afternoon. His visit was entirely unex-
pected and uuostentatious.
The railroad has been torn up by our troops.
The rails from Dispatch Station to White
House have been carefully carried away.
