Harper's Ferry, Nov. 21st, 1859—2.02 P. M.
W. P. Smith:
Gov. Wise has ordered the return of all the troops that arrived here this morning, except thirty-five—one company with two pieces of artillery. Mr. Donohoo has gone to Charlestown on special train with them. I will arrange to send the others East on express or mail in the morning, as they may decide.
A. P. SHUTT.
