Beef for the army.

--A large number of cattle and yearlings were driven through this city yesterday morning, on their way to General Lee's army, on the south side of the river. They were a portion of the fruits of General Early's recent engagements with the Yankees in the Valley of Virginia. There need be no apprehension of a scarcity of fresh meat for our soldiers this winter, for already, we have been assured, there has been enough captured from the Yankees to abundantly supply them.
