1t IS more than likely that Majors Price
and Shanks. who were some time ago
assigned to duty with the Second and
Third Regiments, but who have been here
on detached duty for some months, will
be ordered TO their regiments in the next
few days.
General Lee said yesterday before his
departure for Jacksonville that he want
ed these officers down there and would
take the matter up with the war de-
partment Immediately upon his arrival in
Jacksonville The General did not see
either OF the officers during his stay here
but expressed a desire TO talk with them,
though at the time he so expressed him
self it was too late TO send for them.
1t is known to the General that the
two officers have concluded their labOrs
here, and that they are exceedingly anx-
ious to join their regiments. and hence
his determination to have them ordered
TO do so. IL is understood that General
Lee will make a strong effort TO have
the Third Regiment ordered from Camp
Alger to Jacksonville.
