All Quiet

“all is quiet” on the Fredericksburg Front

From the Richmond Daily Dispatch December 8, 1862:

From Fredericksburg.

The regular train on the Fredericksburg road was greatly delayed beyond its usual time of arrival last night. Advices from that quarter, how ever, repeat the story that “all is quiet,” and that no active movements are in progress.
