Gen. Lee is here, but wili probably rejoin tiie army in a day ’ or two. 1 am not informed as to the exact point which ; .lackson has been ordered to occupy, though it is be lieved iiC will eveniually fall back towards Harrisonburg j or ytaunton, so as to be couvcnieut to his supplies. .At j the latter place he would be in a few hours communi- i cation by mi way with tne forces sent iu the direction ! of (’ulpeper (’ourt House; whiUt these iasi named forces, 1 shouM they go into winter quarters between the Rapi- il.iii and K.ippahaunock, w..uid also be in communica- j lion by railway with Gordonsville, Siuunion, Richmond | and Lynchburg, Such ot your readers as have accompanied me in this correspondence, are prepared, doubtless, for this new j disposition of our forces. The entii’e district from the i James river to the Potomac lias been exhausted of moat I of Its dispos.able supplies of provisions and forage, an'J I if it had not been, the character of the roads is such | during ttie winter and early spring as to render it ex- j ceediiigly ditiioult. if noi impossible, to subsist so large HU .irmy as en. Lee's by wagon transportation alone. { In the absence of these supplies in tlie imme liate vicin- \ ity, it becime absolutely necessary for the army to re- j tire to some point or points where it could avail itself i»t the railw.iy 'unes. This it can easily do at Staunton and behind the Rapp'ihannock. At each of these places ihere is also an abuudant .-uipply of wood and water. A further alvantiige would result from this dispo sition o!' our forces. .“Should they be needed at Rich- j a.oud, Peter-'burg. or ou the coast of South Carolina and (ieorgia. there woiiM be two lines of railroad at our commaii'l -tiie one '.lirect to Birhniond and down the i ■A I lain ic coast, the other leading to Lynchburg anil ■ aroun.l to Petersburg, or directly on lo Knoxville, .At- j lauta.

Now as the said gentleman gave no reasons for his conduct I have como to the conclusion to do it for him. He came here in my absence with letters to mail, and a daughter of mine, about thirteen years of age, was mailing letters, as she very often ioes in my ab sence, and Air. S asked her to allow him to assist her. and of course she agreed, and he mailed one letter and left: an 1 afterwards there came other*letters to mail, and with others another letter to the same Post Office Mr S. was writing to, and my daughter of course put both letters in the same wrapper, and by that means svw that Mr. S was writing to a young lady, and it amused Ihe child so much * * * . 1 / could not keep the secret The ‘-Special and Confiden tial” Correspondents of the said gentleman will please address him hereafter at Oilopol.s or any where they please except at (jueensdale. , r , tt>, t, xr Respectfully. 1^- McCALLLAl^P M.
