Comparatively quiet on the
lines -- mortar fire severe
at intervals through the
day & night. Nothing
positive heard of Johnston;
a report from the enemy
says he has been skirmishing
with them for three days,
and had captured about
a regiment of their cavalry.
Various rumors afloat --
that Price has Helena --
Smith at Milliken's bend --
Lee has Arlington Heights --
one doesn't know what to
believe.
Prospect of our soon having
to eat mule meat, unless
relieved.
