wick's corps has recrossed the river, and to have them hauled at once to Aquia Creek, and, with the wagons, placed in readiness to be towed to Alexandria. The teams will be sent up by land, via Dumfries and Gloucester. The general also directs that as early as to-morrow night you have the Occoquan bridged with one bridge where the Telegraph road crosses the Occoquan. If you should require assistance, you will call on Major-General Sedgwick and on the chief quartermaster for the tug to tow your pontoons into position on the Occoquan. Every part of this order must be rigidly executed without failure.

Very respectfully, &c.,

S. WILLIAMS,

Assistant Adjutant-General.

Major-General Reynolds, Commanding at Bealeton:

I have a brigade at Warrenton, with pickets at Sulphur Springs and Waterloo, with scouts to Amissville; another brigade at Thoroughfare Gap, and another brigade picketing the Rappahannock. In case this latter brigade is only needed to picket between United States Ford and Kelly's, a regiment would be sufficient. I should very much like to have the rest of the brigade, as I am short- handed. I mention this in case a former dispatch has not reached you. I have advised Howard to picket strongly to his right and front.

A. PLEASONTON,

Brigadier-General, Commanding.
