Ffric the - Pittsburgh Gazette. . Ifra. Yogi; May 8, 1864. The following are fall particulars of the; movemeuu across the Rapidift, beginning with Tuesday night last week and down to Thursday night, the end of the first day's great battle. The march began at midnight, Tuesday. Gregg's division of cavalry led the way to Ely's lord, and Wilsow's division to Germania. The Second corps, General Han ' oock, took the road to Ely's ford. /he Fifth corps, General Warren, marched for Germania ford, the first divisions of both corps breaking up their camps at midnight. The Sixth corps, General Bedgwiek, followed the Fifth at four boors' Interval. In the afternoon of Wednesday Gen. Han cock had his whole corps :across and had ea tablished hls headquarters at Obstaellorsville. Gen. Warren advanced by the road from Ely'. Ford to the Wild,orneai and got into position on the heights lying over against the defen ces of Mine Run. Before the sun was down Sedgwicir got over aisp,and went into position In the roar of Warren. The cavalry of Sheri dan scoured the oountry on all sides, and sue• seeded in capturing dispatches from the rebel Hen. Rhodes to Ewell, with the =menaces moot that Illeado'was across the Rapidan, and wanting to know what to do. It is supposed that be did not get the information, by that messenger. Other dispatches were aleo taken early Thursday morning. Sheridan went in search of a tight with Stuart and on a rooonnollance to the left. For the main body, precise marching orders were tented. Warren was to advance to Parker's Tavern, five miles ahead, and Hancock we, to pursue a road leading southwest from his camp near Ohaneellorville, and to go into line of battle oaths left of the whole army. War ren was to put kilo:m.lf In connection with Hancock's. right, and Sedgowick to occupy the grouiscfln 'tile rear of Warren as before. The order of battle, der efore, stood the, Hancock, 2d corps, forming the left; Warren, sth corps, the entre, and Sedgewick, 6th ores, the right and the reeerro. The first Intimation of the opening cotter came from Gen. Griffin, clommanding the first Division of the sth Corps. He has the enemy close in his front, and the order to move to Parker's Tavern is suspended. It becomes evident that Leo issilcont to repeat his old strategy and will seek to strike the hoed of Grant's columns bolero they are all . in posi tion in order to defeat them in detail. Gen. Meade comet up as soon no he hears the news and says quietly to Warren: "If the enemy attack go at once into battle with every man you have." The columns meanwhile are at a halt. It is for tke enemy to ray when the fight .halt begin, and he hat closely the charm, to *think our columns an the flank with the hope of breaking them in two and divid ing the army. General Meade thinks he im willing that toe aboald try'it. To the Rapidan tr only sit miles, and,lho columns moving by the dank shall presently, if need bet, face to the front and offer Lee such a line of battle 43 he little expects. This delicate manon ere Mende will trust to an army which Is quite able to execute it , for it has been marching in perfect order with a prodd- - lion and with a total want of stragglers un known in Its preview history. The roads, tog, are good, though on the side of them Is everywhere the wilderness and forest, and among its huge trees and thick undergrowth the battle ill mainly.to bo fought. Than far we have gained an Indecisive vie tory. On Thursday we saextssfally resisted a fierce Week. by Lee. On Friday wo renewed the bottle, end drove them some distance. On Saturday there was no fighting, but Meade's army was well up, and Lso still falling back. Slob is the substance of all that is known here officially and unefinnily, up to this writing— Iron in the evening. For the future all is note_eonfideice, and 116pei Yu . si /der. There are no details oPPriday's fighting; and but meagre accenting of Thursday's. Dot • single correipon4ent of an eastern Journal has yet come tbrotigia r and everything beyond nth account& as be brought 1, drawn from Imagination. Messengers are now on the road and have been beard from at Culpepper, bringing details cf Friday's battle. It In Speed that they will get in and accounts be forwarded at &lane bow to-night The rail road is again opened ant to theltappabannock. From the Peninsula all accounts are eneou. raging, but the details are sin proper for transmission. A large number wounded era on their way tip from the battle fields. All estimates of loss on either side are thus far purely mice toral. The best guesses place the number wounded and left in our hands, including the bidly wounded of the rebels whom they were unable to carry off, at from six to nine thou sand. Nothing has yet been hearddirectly from General Grant. The Eastern bound train on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was detained last night by a guerilla demonstration. This morning the train came through, the rend being uninjured and the pinnies! gone. While the halt continues we barn that Burnside is coming up and is expaatedjaorose the Rapidan to join the main army before night. Griffin's division, when halted, was deployed in line of battle at right angles to the turnpike and stretching across on either aide. His skirmishers soon became engaged, and it was beyond doubt that Lee had moved oat front his entrancdtments to battle. Grif fin's advance, the 18th Massachusetts and 83d Pounsilvania,was well form ed on the turnpike, when the first ;hot was fired: The skirmish lingered a little, as If neither side was quite ready, when Warren himself rode to the front and ordered the line formed. Tho right of the road - was taken by Ayres' brigode,with Bartlett on the loft. The undargrewth and the low pines ware so thick that the ellipse" dismounted and want forward with their men on foot. Half a mile further en a sharp volley opened the fight. Tho two brigade' went handsomely forward, drove. bask' . the enemy ..and carried the fir.t bill In front of them, but becoming a little disordered by the unevenness of the ground, and the close forest the line got disconnected In the middle and the rebels poured into the tnt?rvai Oinking both fermis and forcing them to retreat. They fell back fighting, Colonel Hays facing his regiment to the front 'and flank both. Shortly after he . was crowded but not severely. As the retreat drew slowly beak reinforcements began to arrive. The battle extended its line on either hand and kola the rebels were driven. before two o'clock the engagement died away.

But Hancock knows now that in this short half mile of battle he has put all his men— all the Bicond corps—Warren and Bedgewick "Where are they ? " "Coming ;up hat," Is the answer, for the crisis of the battle is ; reached and Meade has ordered both corps ' forward. It is A. P. Hill whom Hancock is fighting, and as Hill meant to take him to a flank, his own flout is now threatened by the steady marching forward of the centre under Gen. Warren. Gen. Warren will perhaps do better than merely reinforce. Gen. Hancock wilt fall on Gen: - Hill and force him to look to his own defense. • But 11111 lees his'danger, and grows cautious.
