Adjutant and Inspector General .

- HEADQUARTERS, Near Millwood, Va., June 19, 1863. Mr.

PRESIDENT: General Ewell, with two division, has advanced from the Potomac toward Pennsylvania . His third division is retained near Sepherdstown for the present to guard his flank and rear. General Longstreet's corps on the Ashby's and Snicker's Gaps roads threatens the enemy, who is massed between him and Washington . General Stuart's cavalry is operating in his front . I hope the first division of A. P. Hill's corps will reach here to-day, so that Early may be relieved and follow Ewell. All attempts of the enemy to penetrate the mountains have been repulsed by Stuart's cavalry, who, yesterday, again drove him from Middleburg, and, by reports received last evening, the enemy's infantry have evacuated Aldie. Indications seem to be that his main body is proceeding toward the Potomac, whether upon Harper's Ferry or to cross the river east of it, is not yet known. The difficulty of procuring supplies retards and renders more uncertain our future movements . I am, with great respect, your obedient servant,

R. E. LEE,

General .
