Last Monday more than forty thousand men marched through town, six thousand negroes, on their way southward. The univer- sal opinion was that the negroes made much the best appearance, and there seemed to be the best of feeling between them and the white soldiers. 88. — To Mrs. Orimes, United States Senate-Chambee, ) Washdjoton, May 10, 1864. f We have an intense anxiety here about the recent battles, though the people have not been so demonstrative as on many former occasions. The battle on Fr...iday was fiercely contested all day, was almost entirely a musketry-fight, and was a success to us, inasmuch as the enemy did not accomplish his purpose, which was to whip us. We had two men to their one in action. Grant had one hundred and forty thousand men, and all engaged, save one brigade of colored troops, say six thousand men. Grant and Meade estimate Lee's army at seventy thousand, which I suspect is about the truth. On Saturday, Lee slowly and sullenly moved off in the direction of Orange Court-House, expecting, doubtless, that Grant would follow him, and that he would be able to resume the fight where he would have great advantages in the topography of the country.
