of the Narrows, Sergeant Davidson, who had no gun, being in charge of the armed part of the battalion. When we had gone about five miles we were ordered back to Dublin in great haste to hold the place until Echols' army could relieve us. I was then placed in command of the armed men. Query; Why was not an officer placed in command, it being the armed portion of the force and about the fourth part of it? Several officers were present [besides McLaughlin]. I left my diary in charge of G. W. Thomas and marched with my command to Dublin, and took up quarter's in the post commissary's office. Echols, who was advancing down the railroad, with a considerable army, had not yet arrived. Echols's army was said to number 6,000 or 7,000 men. Two or three generals were with him, including General Duke. There were important stores at Dublin, We were informed that we would be relied by 8 or 9 o'clock [in the morning].

The Pamunkey Indians. Information having been sent to this city that the Federal army, while operating on the Chickahominy, was piloted and sided by the Pamunkey Indians, detective officer George W. Thomas was dispatched last week to King William county, with a squad of men, for the purpose of arresting such of the mongrel tribe as were engaged in the business. The party entered the village on Friday night, and captured eleven, one of whom escaped on the way back, and three more were discharged after an examination at King William Court-House, while the remaining six were brought on to Richmond, where they are now held as prisoners. We understand that they acknowledge the charge alleged against them, but urge as an excuse that they were forced into the Federal service. Two citizens of King William, named Lipscomb, charged with holding intercourse with the enemy, were arrested and brought up at the same time. Some difficulties were experienced by the party on the route. On ar

In doing so he had to pass down near where Campbell was enounced, and the latter briskly stepping out of his place of concealment, proceeded along in the rear of the officer, and passed the interior guard as an attache of the prison.
