Union Reconnaissance Crosses Rapidan At Orange Court House
A Union reconnoitering column under Crawford crossed the Rapidan and seized Orange Court House from two Confederate regiments of cavalry. The advance pushed back toward Patersonsburg within 12 miles. At Coxs Mills near the river the 13th Virginia Cavalry attacked. Union forces routed them, driving to Sycamore Church encampment and burning tents and stores. Rebels left two horses killed, six men wounded, two prisoners. Union loss one horse. Messages indicate Merimac guns ready for three weeks, two gunboats shelling City Point’s opposite shore.

No drafting needed as 300000 volunteer quota looms
Military authorities expect no draft to fill the August 16 quota of 300000 volunteers. Fire damage in Beekman and William streets exceeds 100000 dollars. Rainbow Hotel lodgers McKenzie and Simona died in the blaze. A Wiconous War Policy statement notes decisive action and government executive agreement on prosecuting the war. Temperature readings from July 1861 to 1862 are listed.
