The latter have been withdrawn, and are being treated like inyalids, to rest them up thor oughly, and at the same time they are receiving new outfits of shoes ana clothing, and their arms are being subjected to a close examination. It is generally believed that as soon as these men have been thoroughly rested. a general advance of the Al lies will be undertaken.
