Owing to the number of woundei requiring

is t*tearning very crowded. We wculd suggest
that there are tent? in town, aid that the
islands in James river falls would make most
excellent camping grounds, wher, owing to
Ue rapidity of k the river, tkc pnmners could
be guardsd by a comparatively snail number
of sentinels. Thu disposition of he Yankee
