Close quarters. Everything seems to indicate the approach of a great battle between the forces of McClellan and our own, under General Johnston. We have the utmost confidence in the skill and ability of our General. We are well aware that he knows what is best to do, and that he will be sure to do whatever is best. We hopeies stand still.

Magruder was retrograding in the direction of Richmond, Gen. McClellan was doing the same thing from Yorktown for the purpose of making a demonstration at or near Fredericksburg.
