Baltimore, Dec. 2, 1859.
A. Diffey: Martinsburg.
I am going to
Philadelphia at-ten to-morrow, to return on Sunday. Confer fully with Mr.
England and Mr. Shutt, as to movements requisite for proper return of troops.
We must close this
campaign as we begun it, without accidents or delays. We send an extra to Washington
on Sunday morning for travel from West by Express, and it may be useful also in
taking troops, if so required.
Don't let Mail East
be kept out of making connections to-morrow — run an extra from Ferry on Mail
time if necessary.
