All along the road we met wagons, carriages, and other vehicles conveying families and chattels, coming down for safety, while every now and then some General, Colonel, or staff officer would pass us at a gallop, the only one of whom any of us recognized was Colonel Pression. We also passed Mrs. Moreton Marye in a carriage, just coming from Alexandria. About two miles from camp I saw the most splendid sight of the kind that I ever dreamed of. Just on our right, a quarter of a mile off from the road, a large body of Cavalry, from the upper counties, swept over the slope of a hill to a beautiful green field, taking everything in their stride, and moving with more regularity than I ever saw men move.

hill to a beautiful green field, taking everything in their stride, and moving with more regularity than I ever saw men move. The great, powerful, glossy black horses, with ponderous troopers on their backs, their burnished arms and equipments glistening in the morning sun, formed a spectacle in the highest degree granted. We marched on towards Alexandria through the dust, and over brooks, creeks, and small rivers, until late in the day, and had halted to rest a little while, when General Bonham, the commander of the forces about here, surrounded by a large number of officers, rode up and us a small speech, informing us that the detachment of the enemy (about 500 strong) who had occasioned the alarm by some predatory excursion, had returned to Alexandria, having killed the unfortunate viderte mentioned above and taken the other, both of whom, with their eyes wide open, had gone, very rashly, close in on them.

Our journey to this place was very slow, owing to the prolonged stoppages at different stations to prevent a collision with other trains. It was made very pleasant, however, by the cheers from the honest hearted country people and the bouquets from the ladies, who seemed to stretch in a continuous line from Richmond to Gordonsville. In one place about haft-way on the road, every girl in the country seemed to have prepared a small package with something nice in it, tied up with a piece of paper containing an appropriate mo or exhortation, signed with her own names. As for bouquets, every man in the Regiment was smothered with them, and I doubt whether we will get over the hoarseness from constant cheeri
