Meade's Boasting — official Dispatch from Gen. Lee. The following dispatch from Gen. Lee was received at the War Department Saturday: Headq'rs Army Northern Va., 21st July, 1863. Gen. S. Cooper, Adj't and Insp'r Gen'l, C. S. A., Richmond, Va: General --I have seen in Northern papers what purported to be an official dispatch from Gen. Meade, stating that he had captured a brigade of infantry, two pieces of artillery, two caissons, and a large number of small arms, as this army retired to the South bank of the Potomac, on the 13th and 14th insts. This dispatch has been copied into the Richmond papers, and as its official character may cause it to be believed, I desire to state that it is incorrect. The enemy did not capture any organized body of men on that occasion, but only stragglers and such as were left asleep on the road, exhausted by the fatigue and exposure of one of the most inclement nights I have ever known at this season of the year.
