In Line op Battle near )
Fredericksburg, Deo. 16, ’62. j
Dear Couritr: This morning we wore
surprised to learn that the Abolition
army Imd nil recrossed the river. -’Tis
said that they commenced the move at
daylight this morning. Our scouting
parties took about 1,000 of tho vile
wrotches this morning, who had strag
gled behind. A plenty of them can
still be seen on the other side of the
river, and their heavy guns are sending
an occasional shot over this way.'Some
of their wagons are moving down the
river, and the goncral impression with
us is, that the whole Yankee army are
preparing to move down to Tort Royal,
nt-lens i in that direction. There was
no geueral fight yesterday, and but lit
tle skirmishing this morning. Our
Brigado movod down to the right, to
the railroad near Hamilton’s Crossing,
Burnsides has certainly done a losing
business bore. Tho Abolition loss can
hardly be less than 8,000, in killed,
wounded, and prisoners, and may be
,000 or 4,000 more than that, while our
entire loss does not exceed 3,000. The
banks of the river being higher on th*e
north side than on the south, our forces
arc prevented from pursuit by the You.
kee artillery, which is covering their
retreat, and so our victory is not so de
cisive as would have been desirable;
and yet it is a grand viotory to have re
pulsed “the Grand Army of the Poto
mac” that moved up to Frederioksburg
a few weeks sipce so boastingly and
with such imposing numbers. Burnsides
certainly has noted very discreetly in re
treating when he could. Tho judioious
selection of positions and arrangements
of troops, by General Lee, was such as
to havo enabled our army to havo
whipped out the Yanks, oven if they
had advanced in a force 200,060 strong.
What our next movements are to be
of course time will develop; it is not
improbable that a long march is in store
for us at an early day. A little rest
would now bo highly appreciated by
the "Rebels.” For five days mid nights
our Brigado has been in line of battle,
although in that time it has marched
nix times, short distances (a mile or
two) each time. It rained an hour or
two this morning, about daylight, and
since then it has been turning colder.
Sorgeant George Aycock U reported to
be better, but the 8urgeon says bis
wound is very severe. There have been
casualties in our Brigade since
Saturday.
Wednesday Mornino.—Last night we
mover! baok to the camp ground occu.
pied previous to Thursduy. We expect
our touts to day. Sonin of the Yankee
officers acknowledge a Uss ot fire to one
in the recent battle. This .is a fine

I would respectfully call the atten

the Confederacy. And witli the view
of protecting the' citizens against the
ravages of the disease, as well at our
soldiers, who are to be sent to hospitals
at tliis post, I deem it proper and neo*
essary, and it is my duty to inaugurate
and adopt sueh measures as will most,
effectual!} guard against its introduc
tion into the community.
For carrying out tliis object, it is
ordered, that all porcont, white and

posed to rho contagion of small
pox, aro required to report the fact to

six miles ef this post, it will be the
duty of the family in which it occurs,
and it is hereby made obligatory upon
them, to report at once, that proper
steps may be taken to prevent the dis
ease from being communicated to
others.
A failure t* comply with the above
order will subject tiie offending parlies
to tiie penalty prescribed by law.
