The order is changed and now we go to the front before Yorktown, and about the center of the line.
Gen. Franklin, I think, will have command of more troops than simply his own Division. Some think he will have charge of the reserve force. We shall have some intrenching to do. Slocum is now the ranking Brigadier in our division, and may yet become a divisional commander.
We expect to march tomorrow, and I look forward to the meeting of my Soldier friends with great pleasure.
Beauregard has fallen back to Memphis. For Mason has capit-ulated, and New Orleans is ours. Good news enough for this week.
