August 10th.
. . . Prince Napoleon passed here on the evening of the 8th,
en route from Washington to Manassas. He spent the night with General
Johnston, took a view of the battle-field yesterday morning, and then returned
to Washington, passing here about eleven o'clock A.m. I only saw him at a
distance.
