in hostilities. Since writing the above, I have conversed again with Col. Davidson and other Officers, on the subject of McClellan's Creek. They unite in saying, that the water question would not be an objection. They say however, that there is very little wood there - not enough to last four Companies one winter and there is no wood near there. They seem to think that the head of Gooseberry Creek is preferable to the Sweetwater, as better adapted for a post or cantonment than McClellan's Creek.
