19th Thursday. Clear and very pleasant. Very dull around camp. Issued two days rations. Saved on day of soft bread. In the morning there was a very big rush of officers sabers. of a move tomorrow and yet all the while they are making great preparations for a grand review of their Corps tomorrow. I believe that there is to be some English and french officers present. A Commissary depot was reported to be established at Culpeper today but we have had no official notice of it as yet.
