Major-General AUGUR:

I am very anxious to get the Eighth Illinois Cavalry, now on duty in Washington. Its absence breaks up one of my brigades. Cannot its place be supplied by one of the regiments at Giesborough Point?

Lieutenant Colonel J. H. TAYLOR,

Assistant Adjutant-General:

I can start between 500 and 600 as many infantry on Thursday as proposed. The party from Washington should start from here. I learn that the cavalry which were at Warrenton have gone to Culpeper. Please let me know as soon as possible your wishes, so that I can make the necessary disposition of troops.

With Colonel Lowell in command of the cavalry I have no fear of trouble. I should send Colonel McMahon with the infantry.
