One of the enemy's steamers went up the river yesterday afternoon, we think for ammunition or additional force. The Pawnee and another steamer remained at anchor all night, near the Maryland shore, and at this time, 9 15 A. M., occupy the same position. I am, respectfully, Your obedient servant, W. F.
