A. Diffey :

I have this moment received a dispatch from Gen. Taliaferro, stating he will require transportation for two hundred and ten men by the train 4, A, M., Monday morning. Please arrange to have Engine here, and two or three cars. I have asked him at what time he will have them leave Charlestown to-morrow. I have not received his answer yet.
