Colonel Gilsa's and General McLean's brigades could not be re-formed. Captain Chas. W. Dietrich, my Assistant Adjutant-General, seized the colors of one of the regiments of Gen.

Q. M., in charge of the President's party: The President started for Greensboroa at 10 h. this evening, and would be glad to see you on his arrival. Please give me every information about raiders. Are Greensboroa and road now safe? General Beauregard's immediate answer was: Will await here arrival of President. Road between this place and Danville safe. Raiders are at or near Salem. He then without delay telegraphed General Ferguson to hurry up with his cavalry br
