You will please to excuse its being crowded but the reason is I am very scarce of paper. The waggons when they come in I shall order off immediately to Col. Long. I understand the Countys of Brunswick and N. Hanover has their men and intends delivering them at Wilmington. As soon as Major Blount Joins I shall march to Wilmington.

R. RAIFORD.
