ARMY OF TILE PENINSULA.
The Recent Exploits of General' KautiN
Cavalry.
[Correspondence of The Press.]
Gm! Portvr, MaYl.O, 1861.
A momentary pause gives me the 'opportunity to
furnish you with the incidents of one of the most
daring and successful raids during the war, and
which had its terminus here. The Opoiaticitis of the
last five days by this command must be of peCullar
Interest to Pennsylvanians, since many of- Its
achievements were made by regiments from 'that
State, one of which, the Sth Pennsylvania Cavalry,
was organized in your city. At daybreak on the 4th
two brigades of General A. V. Kautz's division of
cavalry, consisting of the Ist District of Columbia,
Cavalry and the 3d New York, under- Colonel Mix,
and the 6th and 11th Pennsylvania Cavalry, un
der Colonel S. P. Spear, which had boon quietly,
quickly, but thormighly prepared for the work, left
canip, in the vicinity - of- Portsmouth, Va., and, in
company with a section of the Sth New York Bat-
tery, Lieutenant Morton, passed through Suffolk,
Va.,-at midday, and on to Andrew's Corner, where
they encamped for the night, without meeting any
force of the enemy. Hero they met with some slight
annoyance from bushwhackers. The darkness was
dispelled, and the country everywhere illuminated by
the red glare of the ascending flames from the burning
Woods, which had, either accidentally or designedly,
bben set on fire as the troops passed along. At 12
d!oleck P. M. the column was again set in motion,
and passed through Windsor before' daylight. _The
country had not before felt - the ravages of war, and
the farmers were pursuing their peaceful avocatione
as though the clash of- arms was never dreamed of.'
The country is very heavily covered with a thick
growth - of pine and cedar, and some pretty farm
houses dot the valleys, but the villages have not the
neatness and thrift of 'Northern towns, but are of
that antiquated appearance so peculiarly Southern,
The column pushed rapidly forward, with the evi
dent Intention of crossing at Blackwater Bridge, but
learning that they were informed of our intention
and prepared to moot us, we avoided them by turn
ing to the north and in the direction of Fernsville,
where a dash was made into the place and'a mail
carrier and picket captured. General KautZ was
here advised that the rebels were concentrating at
Broadwater Bridge, where they had two forts built
for its protection, and as it was no part of his planto
be unnecessarily delayed, he pushed forward in the
direction of Smithfield for a short distance, and then
again the head - of the column -was turned to the
north, thus completely foiling the couriers in their
attempt to keep the enemy posted as to our inten
tions, and thus Wall Bridge was reached before any
reinforcements could be sent to the small picket
force Stationed there. Colonel Spear's advance
charged across this bridge, although it had been
partially destroyed by the rebels. Here Lieutenant
Prudhomm, assistant adjutant general, was wound
ed while at the head of the advance. Thus, by a se
ries of adroit movements and rapid marches, which
served the double purpose of deceiving the enemy
and accomplishing our - purpose, we had broken
through a line of defence which they considered im
pregnable to any force of cavalry! We halted at
<lark at Wakefield, on the Norfolk and Petersburg
Railroad, and tore up the track for a considerable
distance. - •
THE VIRGINIA , PEOPLE
At 2y, o'clock, on Saturday morning, the .com_
mend was again ordered ihrward, on the road to
Lyttleton, where a train of three wagons, filled with
ammunition, forage and subsistence, was Captured
by a squadron of the 8d New York, under Captain
Pierce. As an evidence of the absence of every
thing pertaining to military movements in this
country and the ignorance of anything attached to
the army, the people invariably mistook us for their
own soldiers, and freely conversed with us, giving
the information that the Yankees were attempting
to cross the Blackwater. They also expressed their
views regarding the war, and wished that it was
over, and deplored the loss of life.
SKIRMISHING AND I3RIDGE TIIIRNING
Leaving SusseX Court House to the left, we
marched to Iforner , s Well, where our true character
was ascertained, and, doubtless, information sent of
our , movements. Upon reaching Balling's Bridge,
which is across the Nottoway, we found the enemy
in rifle pits, upon the, opposite side, and the planks
in the middle torn up. A squadron of the 3d New
york charged across the bridge on foot and drove
the rebels into the woods beyond. This slight im
pediment removed, the column quickly crossed the
bridge and marched to Stony Creek Station. Here
a battalion of Holeorn , s Legion, under Major Seiger,
were entrenched in houses and prepared to give us
a warm reception. A force of cavalry were dis
mounted and deployed as infantry skirmishers, com
manded by Major Jacobs, 3d New York Cavalry.
The, howitzer batteries and the Sth New York Bat
tery opened upon them. In the meantime a force
was sent across the creek and into the rear of the
enemy.. After a desperate resistance, the enemy
were driven back and into the turnpike, where they
were compelled to surrender. Two bridges at this
place were quickly in flames, the track torn up
for ft long distance the communication ,between
Richmond and Weldon cut off, and this great
avenue of supplies, for the irst time during the war
was completely broken up. A small force of rebel
troops, under General Beaureg,a,rd, had just passed
over the road, and were to be followed by the greater
part of his army lately at Charleston, but
/ they dis
covered something wrong and were compelled to
turn back. A large quantity of subsistence stores
were here burned, and forage enough to supply the
whole command MS captured. A large quantity of
cotton and other property was deetroyed.
During the evening Colonel Spear moved with his
brigade, and proceeded to attack the enemy at Jar
rett's Station, where the rebel infantry, over a thou
sand in number, held a strong , position in a woods
near the bridge.* The 11th Pennsylvania Cavalry
was ordered to the attack, being on the advance,
but after a gallant charge were driven back with.
some loss. The sth Pennsylvania Cavalry ,was then
ordered to the attack, which they obeyed in the
most gallant manner, charging on foot into the
woods in the face of a galling fire. - They drove the
enemy in confusion before them, capturing a num
ber of prisoners and an immense quantity of stores;
and burned the station and a largo water tank. The
track here also . was torn up for a long distance.
Here let me say a word for this regiment, which,
under the disadvantaged position, fought with the
most detennined bravery, eliciting the praise of the
brigade and division commanders, and the cheers of
the regiments not in action. This regiment has re
cently been recruited to the_ maximum number by
Captain Bayley, In Philadelphia, but no appoint
ments to fill vacancies for officers have been
made. Hence the regiment went into action under
the disadvantage of a scarcity of officers, there being
but one field officer with the regiment; but under
the command of Major C. Xleinz, who showed, if
possible, more than his usual skill and bravery in
handling the regiment, it achieved success in the
face of fearful odds. From this point the division
moved by a circuitous route, and arrived at City.
Point. Thus, in the short space of five days, this
command marched over 350 miles, burned railroad
depots and trains of stores, - captured 150'prisoners,
including a major and tw% eaptairis, and other offi
cers, and arrived here in time to co-operate with
General Butler in his attack upon Richmond.
THE SECOND EXPEDITION
KAUTZ'S DIVISION, 18TH ARMY CORPS,
CITY POINT, Va., IVlay 20, 1804.
[Correspondence of The Press. ]
FIVE DAYS , RAID - AND ONE DAY'S REST
One day's rest was deemed sufficient to recuperate
the exhausted-powers of this command after a five
days , raid of continued marching., and again we
`were in the Saddle to- commence anew our work of
distraction. On the evening of the 12th this whole
division was transported across the Appomattox and
disembarked at Bermuda Hundred. AS soomas the
shore was reached we pushed for Ward to within about
throb miles from the outer lino of defences erected
by General Butler; and ellenraped for the night.
The organization of the division was the same as
upon thelast expedition,and numbered the same, ex
cepting a few dismounted men who were left in
camp. • •
THE SECOND RAID-TOWARD PETERSBURG
On the morning of the 12th General Gilmore, with
the lOth Army Corps, and General Smith, with the
iSth Army Corps, advanced in the direction of Pe
tersburg, with apparent design of atthcking the
rebel defences, but with the real purpose of pre
paring a safe way for this division, consisting of the
lat brigade,-Ist District Columbia Cavalry, 3d New,.
York Cavalry, under Col. Mix, and the 2d brigade,
nth Pennsylvania and sth Pennsylvania Cavalry,
nmler Col. S. P. Spear, the whole commanded by
Brigadier General A. V. Kautz, chief of cavalry in
this - dep . artment. 'At daylight we left camp and
pushed rapidly forward beyond the line of entrench
ments, and on in 'the direction of Petersburg for
some distance, and then, by a circuitous route, and
by rapid marches, reached the Danville and Rich
mond Railroad, the only avenue of supplies left to
Lee's army from the Southern and seaboard States,
near Appomattox Station, and in the neighborhood
of the famous coal pits. Tho enemy, ever on the
alert, endeavored to prepare a warm receptionlor
us at divers points, but, by a succession of adroit
movements and skilfully-oxecated feints, they were
avoided, and the goal of our hopes reached. After
burning the bridge and destroying the track we en
camPed for the night.
TOWARD LYNCHBURCI-A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY
At four o'clock A. M., we were in the saddle, and
moving in the direction of Lynchburg.. We passed
through a country over which the storm of war had
not paned, and in •all the freshness and thrift of
peace It seemed to smile a glad welcome to the
weary soldier as he rode along. Rich valleys, dotted
with fine farm-houses,and skirted by long• ranges of
hills, crowned with bright verdure, made us think of
our own loved State and sigh for a glance of its
quietude; . but no time was given for day4treaminii, as
WC pushed swiftly onward through this by-path and
over that unfrequented road.'
TEARING UP RAILROADS AND DESTROYING STORES.
We reached. the Powhatan Station, which was
quickly in flames. Here also the track was torn up
for miles and an immense quantity of subsistence
stores destroyed, After' o,lrOganfi• tot ttm istvio
command rations sufficient for two; aye, quite a
number of horse equipthents Was OW distributed
amongst the Mon, and the balance binned. Pro
perty was destroyed at this depot to the' amount of
*200,000. Prom this - place we proceeded to.theirett
bridge on the Appomattox river. Hero thetadianotr
Was reot by a shower of shell from a large fbroo of
infanery and artillery, strongly entrenched:On a'
strong position. As thelpolicy had'been adopted to
destroy railroad commvnicattons with as little' loss
as possible, the enemy WIZ kept engaged by a soVittl'
force until, the rest of thedivision had ratirchedby•
another route to the Gaston: bridge, on the Lynch
burg railroad, and then withdrew. liere the sta..
Lion, a train of cars, water tanks, &c., were de4-
stroyed, together with a largo quantity of wood, and
.the track tarn up for a considerable distance. Tho
command divided into'two columns, each btiSily
engaged in tearingup rails and burning ties, and
ovary other species of Property that could be of ser
vice to an army, or available In repairing the rail
road. After everything almost that could feed the
devouring element had boa transformed into a
blackened mass of shapeless ruins, the order was
given, and quickly obeyed, to advanco,"and we suc
ceeded in reaching,•.without any, resistance but
what was speedily overcome; Black and White Sta-•
Moon on theSame'reilroad.
TiVO MILI.LON DOLLARS' WORTII OF PROPERTY
This is a large depot of supplies, whore immense
quantities of stores, principally flour and pine
lumber, were collected. Mr shipment to the army,
all of which was quickly destroyed. It is estimated
that two million dollars , worth of property was de
stroyed at this point alone, adthopgh the rebels-con
sidered it either toolit ; r rerneved from our forces, or
so thoroughly surrounded by lines of defence, as to
be beyond the reach of acavulry raid ; but this ex
pedition has proved, pothaps.,. too conclusively for
their comfort, that they'are not safe anywhere with
in the limits oftheirdoorned COnfederacy. After our
work was accomplished,,we passed over such a cir
cuitous route that It is impossilAe to give either -la
titude or Jongitude, until we'arrived at
JAItittTT'E3+ATI6N,
On the Petersburg and'Wefdon Railroad, which
we had burned the week previous. APontoon bridge,
together with all the repairsthat bad been made to
the bridge, was soon 'in flaniesOnd the half-coin
pleted track once more'destroyed"; even the superin
tendent of the repairs and his employees were cap
tured. In the meantimela force *assent to destroy
a railroad bridge on the Norfolk and Petersburg
Railroad, Which returned after doing their work.
Prom this .place we proceeded onword and crossed
the Nottoway river, and by a painfullyzigzag course
reached City Point on the evening of the 17th Last.
Thus, In six days, by marching night and day al
most continually, we had passed over three hundred
and fifty miles of rebel territory, cut every remain
ing avenue of supply on this side of the James river
upon which the rebel army depended for supplies,
and destroyed millions of dollars' worth of property,
captured one hundred and fifty prisoners, and re
turned to this starting point with the loss of but
few men or horses. Incalculable advantages have
been derived by this command by these brilliant
operations, aside from the irreparable damage done
the enemy, by infusing into it an esprit de corps, a
confidence "in their prowess; and a desire to perform
greater good for the cause. Your city should be
proud of the sth Pennsylvania Cavalry, Which she
sent into the field and whosethinned ranks she lately
filled, and the State of the Ills and 11th Regiments,
which have now accomplished so much to be added
to the achievements of Pennsylvanians. T. E. B.

MILITARY ...iXECIITION :VT FORT MCHENRY.—
Monday morning, about half past five ..o'clock,
military excution took place at Fort McHenry.
Andrew Laypole, alias Isadore Leopold,,captured
in the month of April, 1863, tried and convicted as a
spy saelln d tereeero il h a h r a y n. go e m a m i l k s son accordance
sc with
d
was erected about the centre of the drill ground
within' the enclosure of the fort, outside of the gar
rison. The fact of the execution being ordered was
communicated to Leopold on Sunday evening, and
the chaplain of the post, Rev. Dr. A. A. Reese,se
mained with'hira several hours.
Shortly after live o'clock in the morning, Leopold
was placed in a cart and seated upon his coffin, and
was conveyed to the Scaffold; guarded by the
7th Regiment Ohio militia. The .prisoner• made a
short address to those around him,, stating that he
appeared on the scaffold as a felon, but there was
one who knew ho was not of that Character. He
said he freely forgave all having to do with his
death. He desired Gen. ; Morris, who,. with Col.
Samuel B. Lawrence, Assistant - A:djutant General
of Major General Wallace, and other officers were
present, to hand over to his friends his body, for
their disposal. He then offered an extempOre
prayer to the,MoSt High, on the conolusion of which
the rope was placed around his neck, and every
thing being in readiness, the word was given,
and
he was suspended in the air. He struggled but
slightly, and is supposed to have died in .about five
minutes.
On Sunday, at his request, the. sacrament was
administered to him by Rev. Dr. Reese, to whom

SIGEL'S FIOIIT AT NEWNARKET.—Ari 3 OHICOr who
participated in the engagement of the 15th instant,
at Newmarket, under. General Sigel, writes as fol
lows : "The lighting was terrific, the most so of any
battle in the valley. We. could only bring about
5,000 mon into the light ; the enemynumbered 10,000
to 18,000, and fought like devils. Our cavalry be
haved badly, and some of the infantry no bettor;
but the latter were rallied—the cavalry could not be,
General Sigel was in the front, and in the thick of
theybattle all day, encouraging, directing, and load
ing the men. The bullets were dense all about him
ono or two of his staff were slightly injured ; several
had horses shot under them." ,
4 ' THE SPOTTED Pnviiii at Long Branch, we aro re.
liably informed, has long since disappeared. In
fact, there was not ono case of it on the Branch
proper ; only west of the creek in, the vicinity of the
village called the Upper Poll, about a mile and a
half from the boarding houses. The Branch, is as
healthy as it has ever boon, and the proprigtors of
the various hotels aro securing rooms as hitherto
for their friends and patrons. •

GABRIEL G. TASSARA
Hon. W. H. SEWARD.
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
At the commencement of the second board yesterday,
announcement was made of the death of Col. - R. H.
Woolworth, a member of the Betted of Brokers. At the
time of his death he was in commend of the 4th Penn
sylvania Reserves. He fell on the 9th of May, atCloyd's
Mountain, West Vihinia, while acting under General
Crooks, and was buried on the battle-field. The de•
ceased was a nephew of Hon. Charles Gilpin, United
states District Attorney. He enjoyed , the reputation of
being one of our most intelligent and successful brokers,
and hie private worth caused him to be universally es
teemed. The board, after passing resolutions of condo
lence, and requesting permission of the•family to adopt
means to recover the remains, immediately adjourned.
There is quite a lull in business at present, "under the
apprehension of an overwhelming victory to the Union
arms, an event which must prove fatal" othe 'insertion
lons gamblers in gold and such stocks snare now upon
the Market with a fictitious standard of value. The
volume of the stock transactions is becoming smaller
day by day.
Money is still very abundant, with every prospect of
continued ease for some time to come. The current
rates remain at 5 to 6 per cent. , with exceptional cases
at higher rates, where the security is less satisfactory.
Heavy disbursements are made by the Government, and
the national expenditures are adding much. to the cir
culating capital, which will further reduce• the rate of
interest.
Government securities are held quite firmly, and the
five-twenties sold to a largo extent at the boards at 103 3 4
(gilo7, the latter for registered. The seven-thirties fell
off selling at 111. State fives were unchanged. City
LOAM Wefl sought after at previous rates. Pennsylvania
Railroad fell off.li; Long Island was steady at 48X:
Camden and Amboy at 158fr,f, an advance of 34; North
ern Central at SI, an advance of I; Catawissa preferred
closed at 43X, an advance of hi; New York and Middle
declined slightly. The Coal companies improved. But
ler-advanced 1X; Fulton was about steady. In Big
Mountain and Green Mountain nothing was said. Sus
quehanna Canal sold at 23h1152334; Schuylkill Naviga
tion at 43X—the latter an improvement. The low
priced mining and oil stocks were dull, and there were
-no marked changes in price.
The First National Bank of Camden, New Jersey, has
been chartered; with a capital of SHO,OOO.

The 'commissioners of the Sinking. Fund of the State
of Ohio have issued a statement of their proceedings for
the six mouths ending on the 15th inst. , together :with a
statement of the amount of the public funded debt of the.
State, from, which we learn that the debt of the State on
the 15th November, 1563, was $13,464,509 93
During the six months there has been re
deemed—
Of the foreign loan of 1,560.-
Of the domestic loan of 1563
Of the Unien loan of 1566
Outstanding at this date $13,339,379 93
The foreign debt of the State is set down at $12,931,
909 44, and the domestic debt at $406,393 49.
The banks of Chicago have determined not to receive
anything but treasury notes and national bank issues as
par funds. All Illinois; lowa, and Indiana currency.,
which has been taken at par since the 10th day of this
month, is now, classed with other mixed currency.
Next week, the two-year 5 per cent. treasury notes.
will be converted into currency, and more activity may
be expected in the 10-40 loan, which now sells at the
rate of a million per day, and will be kept npon,the
market until the !WOO/60,000 is placed, and no : change
whatever be made in the mode q{ selling it. The public,
expect Congress to pass, without. delay, efficient tax:
and tariff bills, and so amend the national banking law
as to make it produce in taxes a substantial, sum, in the.
way of revenues to,be pledged to the support of the na
tional debt. There will beano more currency notes.uped,
and future issues of treasury notes_will be made- in. the
form least liable to imitate the 'currency, • The proposed
issue of 0 per cent. notes, with intereskcompounded,.
a:step in, this direction, and, if taken,. will absorb.
good deal of currency. No better investment can be
found than the 10-40 s, and, at the same time, no grettier
service can be performed for thaktovernment than to
subscribe for them.
