this morning. We have not yet received the corrected report. General Crawford would like to know if he can go back to camp to-morrow, as it is so much trouble to get up their things by details.

Respectfully,

G. K. WARREN,

Major-General, Commanding.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
February 8, 1865-4.10 p. m.

Major-General WARREN:

The major-general commanding cannot authorize the withdrawal of General Crawford's division until he fully understands the military situation. You may be attacked by General Lee this evening. He considers that General Crawford had no right to leave his camp for four days without his shelter-tents, and for doing this he alone is responsible. The general commanding cannot consent to withdraw, even temporarily, at the present time a support that may be needed at any moment.

ALEX. S. WEBB,

Brevet Major-General and Chief of Staff.

HEADQUARTERS FIFTH ARMY CORPS,

The following is the corrected report of casualties in Crawford's division: February 7-killed, 23 enlisted men; wounded, 8 officers, 144 enlisted men; missing, 2 officers, 156 enlisted men; aggregate, 333.

A tabulated statement was forwarded before we were made aware of the error in General Crawford's report; a new one will be made and sent in.

Respectfully,

Major-General, Commanding.

Each division commander will send a staff officer to our old picket-line and inform their division picket officers that they are to be relieved by General Gregg's cavalry, and, as soon as they relieved, that they will rejoin their own commands here.
