Returned home.

--The R. L. I. Blues, who have been on duty for several weeks past in the vicinity of Aquia Creek and the enemy's cruisers, having been ordered back to this post, returned by the Fredericksburg route yesterday, under the gallant Capt., O. J. Wise. The Blues looked ‘"none the worse for wear"’ on account of their exposure on the tented field. We believe they were marched away at such short notice that they never yet have been mustered regularly into service. If so, that formality will now be complied with.
