Surgeons satisfied
Ihere Is, among the surgeons here, much
dissatisfaction that the movement of the
lst Division has not progressed more speed
lily. So far only the Sth and 18th Pennsyl-
Vanla and the Sd Virginia have changed
quarters Meanwhile typhoid fever con-
thnes undiminished. This morning brought
the unwelcome news that the well of the
80 virginia has been condemned.
This involves further delay, as the 1st
New Jersey cannot now be moved until
new source of water supply is discovered
Tor the Virg1nians. Otherwise the 1st New
Jersey ssis would have gone Monday. and the
eath New York Tuesday. Instead of this
ootn regiments are likely now to stay
where they are until Thursday Or Friday.
