In the latter mill there was, I am told, a large amount of wheat and flour, which was of course destroyed.--Many of the negroes who were carried off by the enemy contrived to effect their escape, and have returned to their masters within our lines. The heavy firing heard here on Thursday a said to have been target firing by the enemy in Culpeper county. A small force of the enemy's infantry crossed at Germania Ford on Friday night, but recrossed to Culpeper on Saturday without engaging any of our forces. Germania is a lower ford, and merely picketed by our cavalry videttes. To show you the spirit of the troops of this army, I have been requested to have published the following, which has been sent me from headquarters: Camp 15th Va Cavalry.

Urged by no less sacred considerations than the "Sires of '76" we also "pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor" for compliance with above obligation or enlistment. For the information of all Yankeedom I will mention that the raids have not interfered with the commissariat of the army, as we had enough rations on hand. I regret to inform your readers that Lieut.-Gen. A. P. Hill is quite sick, and incapacitated for command. His corps is now commanded by Major-General Anderson. Yesterday was the first day since Monday that any Richmond papers were received, and, as may be supposed, they created a sensation, especially Dahlgren's plans and purposes.

From General Lee's army. [from our own Correspondent.] Army of Northern Virginia, March 6th, 1864. The excitement which permeated the entire army from Monday until Friday has subsided, and quiet again reigns supreme on the Rapidan. In addition to the injuries previously mentioned as having been committed by the raiders, I learn that they destroyed, in their retreat from Charlottesville, the Page Flouring Mill, in the county of Green, and the flouring mill of Gen. R. A. Banks, in the county of Madison.
