The three regiments now in Virginia, under Cols. Montgomery, Taylor and McLean, together with Green's Battery of Artillery, six pieces, and Company G. of the regular Cavalry, have been formed into a Brigade, under Gen Philip Kearney. They are stationed in the vicinity of Cloud's Mills, about five miles from Alexandria, a position in which they have the enemy for their neighbors, and where they will probably have skirmishes enough to dispel the ennui of camp life.
