A coincidence.

--A singular and very happy coincidence occurred in the capture of New creek. The Fifth and Sixth "old Virginia" cavalry captured the Fifth and Sixth bogus "new Virginia" cavalry, with their handsome colors. These flags will adorn the capitol at Richmond. They are very beautiful specimens of Yankee taste in that line.
