cations, that the enemy would venture attack. The
active preparations made such anticipation
che day. Notwithstanding the absence OF general
gagement a busy and exciting There have been
marching and countermarchlng Of infantry the moving
10 and fro Of artillery and rapid marching back forth
ofcavalry.

dren safe distance from the army. General Dcvens
got him parole Of twenty hours Captain somers
states that large number OF and children
the train that escaped capture trying to work their
way south
ENEMY.
II is supposed that II the enemy does not attack Us
hero he will make effort to the Appomatox at
Stony Point and then, striking the Richmond and Lynch
burg turnpike make tracks in the direction OF the latter
place The probability is that Generals Meade and Sher
dan may insist having voice In the carrying out OF
The enemy's programme.
