From Centreville.
a visit on picket — Germantown and Fairfax C. H.--a foraging expedition beyond Fairfax C. H.--the ladies, &c., &c.
[correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Centreville, December 9, 1861.
It fell to our lot to go on picket on the morning of the 3d inst. It will be remembered what a bitter cold day that was — overcoats were quite acceptable, and with them the body did not keep in that degree of comfort which is desirable.
We did not know when we started where we were going — to what post — but as soon as we got fully underway on the pike we knew we were going to Germantown, a distance from our encampment of nearly seven miles. It fell to my lot to go on the first detail to the outpost.
I went on about four in the afternoon, and was relieved about dark.
We had to walk our post in order to keep warm, or more correctly to prevent our limbs from becoming benumbed.

Ranaway--$10 Reward.
--Ranaway from the subscriber, on the 3d Inst., my slave woman Parthena.
Had on a dark brown and white calico dress.
She is of a ginger-bread color; medium size; the right fore-finger shortened and crooked, from a whitlow.
I think she is harbored somewhere in or near Duvall's addition.
For her delivery to me I will pay $10
Left my premises, about three months since, my negro slave Hanover, who is lame of both feet.
He is a first-rate cook; works well in a garden, and is fond of drink.
He was heard to say he was going to work for the soldiers, who may have employed him, under the belief he was free, and may now be in some camp, as he had not been heard from for several weeks.
I will give $5 for his delivery to me, if taken in this city, or, if more than ten miles away, I will pay $20.
