The commanding general desires you to put your command in camp to-night on the same stream that Gen. Pickett is on, about two miles from town on the Shippensburg road. Your command will not move to-morrow. The troops will lie over to have an opportunity to refresh themselves and clean up. Please see that it is properly used.
