The follow is an extract from the letter: 'Two companies of cavalry, one from Washington county, and one from Amelia county, passed through here this morning to join Col. Stuart. The Militia of Frederick, Clarke, Shenandoah, Rockingham, Page, Warren, Jefferson and Berkeley counties have been ordered out for six months or the war, and ordered to rendezvous here.
