rest and get his men in better condition, as many of them had marched from Manassas without shoes; that at this season of the year when the equines is at hand, and a rise in the Potomac may be expected, which would cut off our supplies, it was not prudent to remain on the other side; that be had every confidence in General Lee and all our Generals; that the withdrawal from Maryland is only temporary, and that she must and would be redeemed. Loud calls were then made for Ex Gov. Lowe, but he did not appear. He is here, but seems much jaded.--Most of our army is near Shepherdstown, Va. General Anderson was wounded in the thigh — a flesh wound. General Toombs was also slightly wounded. He is said to have acted gallantly, and with two regiments beat back an immense force, when he was reinforced and routed the enemy. I will write you again to-morrow, and tell you all I can learn of the killed and wounded. About two thousand wounded will be here by to-morrow night. Accomac.
