Bliss, Commissary of Military Stores at Springfield, writes to Knox. Reports that Knox's orders will be punctually obeyed. Recently met with the owners of the powder mill at Springfield, who agreed to work entirely for Bliss until August 20, estimating they can make three or four tons of powder by that date. Promises to forward an exact return of stores at Springfield to Knox, and to "do every thing in my power to promote a [successfull?] campaign."
