Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from Camp Farr. Camp Farr, near Fairfax C H., July 4, 1861.
There were various rumors here of a fight yesterday between Gen. Patterson, with 13,000, and Gen. Johnson, with 4,000 men. The former attempted to cross the Potomac, and was driven back.
Loss variously estimated.
The day before, (the 2d,) 14 of our men attacked 67 Federalists, killed 17, and took 6 prisoners, with a loss of six wounded and two killed. One of our men was killed by his own sergeant, by mistake.
[for the Dispatch.] July 4th, 1861.
Messrs. Editors:--Being very desirous to see Gen. Scott, I went to Gordonsville Thursday, the 3rd, to do so, as I understood he was in Washington and said he would dine in Richmond the 4th.
Can you inform an old farmer why he did not dine there, and whether he has apologized to the citizens for not coming?
If he did not, can you give the people any information?
They are anxious to meet him along the railroad, and no doubt his old friends, Generals Lee and Beauregard, and other military gentlemen, would like to see him punctual in attending the places he proposes to dine at. And won't President Davis think hard of him for not comrag?
Would it not be well to send a committee to Washington to wait on him, and assure him that a conveyance had been and is still waiting to bring him down?
and I don't think it would be prudent for him to refuse such competent escorts as Lee and Beauregard.
Would it?
