thk attempt to surprise rich
mono.
■pra: BEABOWB FOR ITS FAILURE.
rFrom tlie Yorktown, Va. Cavalier, of Fob. 15.
The expedition which left Williamsburg, on
morning of the 6th instant, under com
mand of Brigadier-General Wistar, was one of
th o test got up movements, in all its objects
and details, that has occurred in the Depart
ment, and but for the untimely escape of Boyle,
confinedat Fort Hagruder, for the murder of
Lieut. Disosoway, would have resulted in 'one
cf the most brilliant achievements that has
marked the progress of the war, amounting to
nothing less than the planting of the Stars and
Stripes in the rebel capital, the release of the
Union prisoners confined there, and possibly
the surprise and captmte of the arch-traitor
Davis, himself. ;
The work could not have been in better
lands, and it is only to be deplored that the ar
rangements were not made for carrying out the
f plan a day or two earlier, when the result might
-have been different.
The troops comprising-the expedition were
80 judiciously distributed, and the whole force
was so small, that no one at this point for a
moment suspected the prodigious blow that
was being leveled at the rebellion, until after
the expedition had started.
The force consisted of detachments of the Ist
New York Mounted Rifles, Sd New York, sth
and 11th Pennsylvania, and 2d District of Co
lumbia Cavalry, under Col. Spear, of the 11th
Pennsylvania; the 118th, 139th and 148th New,
York Volunteer Infantry, under Col. R. M.
West; the 4th,sth and 6thU. S. Colored Troops,
under Col. Duncan, with Hunt’s and Balger’s
Batteries of Light Artillery.
General Wistar' and Staff arrived at Wil
liamsburg on the evening of the sth instant,
where the troops were consolidated during the
night. The men were in splendid condition,
and understood from the seventy rounds of
ammunition in their cartridge boxes and knap
sacks, and the six days’ rations with which
they were provided, that heavy work and long
marches were laid out for them, and all were
eager to move.
The infantry took np the line of march from
Williamsburg at nine o’clock on the morning of
the 6 th, taking the Richmond road and pro
ceeding at a brisk pace.
Col. Spear, with the, cavalry, started at 11
o’clock, and passing the infantry, pushed rapidly
forward to Bottom Bridge, Capt. Hill, with a
picked company of the Mounted Rifles; taking
the advance.
The cavalry reached Bottom Bridge at three
O’clock on the mOming of the 7th, having tra
veled 51 miles in sixteen hours.
The night was unfortunately very cloudy and
so excessively dark that it was impossible for a
lider to see the head of his horse, and Colonel
Spear, after several attempts to force a passage,
and finding the enemy in strong and unexpected
force at all points, was obliged to defer further
operations till daylight.
As soon as it became light, it was discovered
that the enemy was on the alert, that a portion
cf the planks of the bridge had been taken up,
the fords choked with large quantities of felled
timber, and that the rebels occupied the oppo
site side of the stream in force, prepared,
With infantry, cavalry and artillery, to dispute
the passage.
Major Wheelan, with a detachment of the
Mounted Rifles, was ordered to charge the
bridge, which they did most gallantly, advanc
ing by the only approach, which was a narrow
passage between two deep and miry swamps.
As they neared the bridge the enemy opened
upon them with canister, first checking and
then repulsing the charge. The Mounted Rifles
sustained a loss of one killed and eight wounded
in this gallant but unsuccessful attempt to cross
the stream. Eight horses were also killed. The
men were all brought away, as were also the
equipments of the horses.
Col. Spear now reconnoitred the river for
Some miles in both directions, in the hope of
being able to make a crossing at one of the.
fords, but found them all so obstructed as to
be impassable with cavalry, and well protected
by large numbers of infantry and artillery.
In the meantime Gen. Wistar, with the in
fantry, reached New Kent Cpurt House at 2
o’clock bn the morning of the 7 th, after a
march of 33 miles, where they halted about
three hours, and then pushed fprward towards
Bottom Bridge. Hearing the Continued tiring
in front, snd knowing that the intended snr°
prise of the city was already a failure, orders
were despatched for the cavalry to return, the
infantry still pushing forward to their support.
The enemy did not immediately pursue our
cavalry, and they retired seven miles, when
they were met by the infantry. The whole
force then started on the return, and - had pro
ceeded as far as Baltimore Cross Roads, when
the rear guard, consisting of a detachment of
300 men of the 3d N. Y. Cavalry, under Capt.
Hill; was attacked by a pursuing force of rebels.
A section of Capt. Belger’s Battery was brought
to bear upon them, which, supported by the
rear guard, drove them back in a handsome
manner.
The rebels lost several men in this attack,
and numbered one officer among their killed,
all of whom were left npon the ground in their
retreat until our .troops had passed on.
Our force sustained no loss at this point, and
continued their homeward march at an easy
pace, stopping at New Kent Court House over
“'S ll *- The cavalry reached Williamsburg on
toe ath, whilst the infantry proceeded as far as
Burnt Ordinary, and returned to camp the
following day, having marched one hundred
and four miles in four days, with little or no
stragglmg.
QuUe a number of deserters from the rebel
army, .refugees, negroes, and a few escaped
were picked up and accom
pamecr the expedition home.
It is unfortunate that so important a move
s'.-- failed; but as Boyle, the deserter
who apprised the rebels of an increase in our
cavalry force near W illiamsburg (which is the
most that he could, have known), reached
Richmond with his information probably before
the expedition started, the rebels had ample
opportunity to prepare themselves, and success
was impossible. From the testimony of ne
groes, women and children, separately ex
amined, it was ascertained that the rebels bad
nineteen hours’ notice, which they had im
proved by the construction of earthworks aad
nbattis.
They are evidently easy alarmed for the
safety of their capital, as the obstructions at
the bridge and fords had been placed there but
a short time previous to the arrival of Colonel
Spear, and at daylight on the morning of his
arrival, three regiments of infantry were plainly
seen, and four batteries, of field artillery, whilst
other infantry fired from the woods, and one
gun attested its heavier weight by throwing
its shots a great distance in the rear of our
force. _
Reinforcements were constantly arriving for
the rebels over the York River Railroad, dur
ing the stay of our cavalry in the vicinity. The
expedition was evidently a great scare for the
j and had our cavalry soe
-111 caching the bridge before their ap
was,5 iscoTere d, the confederacy would
nave Deen thrown into convulsions with terror.

SOUTHERN COMPIIMEHTS TO GEN. BUTLER.
[From the Columbia South Carolinian of Feb. 2d.]
. • . . BtrlJ.BR..
The world owes to this distinguished indi
vidual the establishment of a much disputed
question, Butler has made it forever impossible
to deny that perfection, on this earth, is an at
tainable thing. He is the perfection of depra
vity. In describing other villains of this nation,
we are occasionally obliged to employ certain
modifying epithets. We say of McClellan that
jhe is a liar, but we have to add, that he is not
cruel. We dub Pope a coward, but are con
strained to confess that he has courage enough
to face the Indians'. In the case of Butler, and
of Butler alone, the painful necessity of con
ceding to a Yankee the merest shadow of a
virtue, is- not forced upon us for an instant.
The man is not base, he is baseness itself; not
cowardly, but cowardice itself; not cruel, or
criminal, or vicious, but cruelty and vice and
wickedness in all their hideous repulsiveness.
In a former article, we have painted Lincoln
as the ideal Yankee. We should have added,
the Yankee as he appears on earth. Butler is
the Yankee as we might conceive him, when
he shall have obtained diabolic honors in
another world. In other words, Lincoln is the
Yankee king; Butler-is the Yankee devil. That
the latter is entitled to this name, we suppose
our readers will grant without hesitation.
The only difficulty is what rank to assign him
amoDg his fellows. If . the status of fiends
is to be regulated on the principle, that the
blackest sinner deserves the highest seat, then,
without doubt,Butler should take precedence of
the arch-fiend himself. But if talents of any
kind, apart from a sort of cleverness in ras
cality, must be taken into consideration, in
that case Butler, who to his many crimes adds
the most hopeless stupidity, must of neces
sity fake the humblest place below the Tar
arean salt. Conscious, however, of his un
equalled vileness, we suppose that Butler would
scarcely submit to be so'degraded. If Moloch
should demand a seat above him, on the
ground of greater bloodthirstiness, he might
retort, “ I am as blood-thirsty as you are, but
n me the credit of that characteristic is not
lessened as in you, by the quality of courage.”
Should Belial put in a claim to equal cowardice,
he might say, “perhaps; but you are a pro
found metaphysician; while lam nothing but
a profound scoundrel.” Lastly, if Mammon
should arrogate superiority in covetousness, or
Satan in cunning, he would only have to reply,
“lam a Yankee,” and they would retire in
confusion.
One of the most extraordinary things about
this man—we beg his pardon—this devil, is the
manner in which he revels in his infamy. He
seems to delight in displaying it
before the gaze of the world. It is of little con
sequence to him whether he be applauded or
vituperated—all his pleasure is in the exhibi
tion. Witnesi, on the one hand, his public
appearances in New York and Boston, and, on
the other, his visit to the Confederate prison
ers in the vicinity of Norfolk. This conduct
leads us to doubt whether he is really conscious
of his infamy and is proud of it, or whether, in
the utter perversity of all moral Bentimcnt by
which he is characterized, he does not mistake
his notoriety for an honorable fange.
To cap the climax of his iniquity, Butler has
lately set up as the reformer of the morals of
a certain class of people in Norfolk. Not con
tent with being a ruffian and a devil, he must
be a hypocrite too. Our own command of
words being inadequate to express onr disgust
for the wretch, we are reduced to employ, with
a slight alteration, the scathing language in
which Macaulay consigns 'Barere to perpetual
ignominy: '“Whatsoever things are false,
whatsoever things are dishonest,
whatsoever things are unjust, - what
soever things are impure, whatso
ever things ore hateful, whatsoever’ things are
of evil report, if there be any vice, and if there
be any infamy, all these things, we knew, were
blended in this man. But one thing was
wanting, and this has been furnished by the
last character in which he has chosen to appear.
When to such an assemblage of qualities is
added the affectation of a regard for the morals
of any portion of the community, the effect
becomes overpowering. We sink under the
contemplation of SHch exquisite and manifold
perfection.”

For these diseases it is truly &sovereign remedy,
and too much cannot be said in its praise. A
single dose has been known to remove the most ur
gent symptoms.
Are you troubled with that distressing pain in
the small of the back and* through the hipsl A
teaspoonful a day of the Constitution Water will
relieve you like magic.
PHYSICIANS
Hare long since given up the use of buchu, cubflbs
and juniper iu the treaunent of the diseases, and
only use them for the want of a better remedy
CONSTITUTION WATER
has proved itself equal to the task that «.

use toon lead to chronic degeneration and confirmed
disease.
We present the Constitution Water to the public
with the conviction that it has no equal in reliering
the class of disease-for which it has been found eo
eminently successful for curing, and we trust that
we shall be rewarded for eur efforts in placing se
valuable a remedy in a form to meet the require

STKUATION; AND HKXOEBHAGIA,
Both, diseases arising from a faulty secretion of
the menstrual fluid—iu eass of being too little, and
accompanied by severe pain, and the other a too
profuse secretion, which will be speedily eared by
ihe Constitution Water.
The disease known as FAXJjING’ OF THE
WOliß, which is the result of a relaxation of the
ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense
of heaviness and dragging pains in the back and
sides, and at times accompanied by sharp, lanci
nating or shooting pains through the parts, will,
in all eases, be cured by this medicine.
Them is another class oi symptoms arising from
IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, which physi
siaus sail nsrveusness, which word sotsts up
much ignorance, and in nine cases out of tea the
doctor does roireslly know whether the symptoms
are the disease or the disease the symptoms. We
can only enumerate them hem *1 speak more

Dr. TVra. H. Gregg—Dear Sir: In February,
1851, I was afflicted with sugar diabetes, and for
five months I passed more than two gallons of
water in Iwenty-ionr hours. I was -obliged to get
up as ef ten as ten or twelve dm so daring the night,
and in five months I lost abont fifty pounds in
weight. During the month of .July. 1851, I pro
cured two boitlea of Constitution Water, and in
two days after using it I experienced relief, and
anor taking two bottle* I was entirely cured; soon
alter regaining my naual good health.

Wm. H. Gregg * Co.—Gents—l freely give you
liberty to make use of tbe following Certificate "tit
the valne ol Constitution Water, which I ean re
commend in the highest manner:
My wife was attacked with pain in the
shoulders, wheie length of the back, and in her
limbs, with Palpitation ef On bear! and Irritation
of R< madder. I called a physician, who at.
tended her three months, when ha left her worse
Elan.he had found her. I then employed one of
the best physicians I could find, who attended her
tor about nine months, and while she was under
nis care she did uot suffer quite as much pain.
He finally gave hoi up and said, her cats war tn
eurolle. “For,” said he, “she gas such
a eentlHutlees of eomplainU, Hurt nsdtciss given for
one operates against sente c her -ef her * ’
About this time she commenced the use of the
CeKßirrimoK Watbu, and, to out utter astonish
ment, almost the firs I does seemed to have tbe de
sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly
under its treatment, and now superintends entirely
her domeetie affairs. She has not taken any of tbe
CoNeriTBViOH Watbb for about tour weeks, and
we are happy to say that it haß predneed a perma
nent cure. WM.M. VAN BBNSCHOTEN.

Is all and more than you recommend It ie be. May
tbe blessing of God ever attend you iu your labors
