Gen. G. H. Steuart :
Your dispatch received. A handsome and well equipped body of cavalry promptly responded to your order, are now at Camden Station prepared and anxious to proceed for service.
I have advised Gen. Watkins of your countermand and they will accordingly be dismissed.
JOHN W. GARRETT, Pres't.
