TEE E. JHTEBESTHTG DETAIIS OF THE EXPEDITION rOorrespondence of thsN. Y. Times ] WiLLiiiantma, Va. .gEriday, March i.-The • details of this movemenfißo far as it may be t shall proceed to give nearly in the order which they transpired. The command left Stevensbnrg, Va., onSunday night last, the 28th nit., and crossing Ely’s,Ford, on the Bapidan— thence by rapid marches to Spottsylvania, Beaver Bam "Station, on the .Virginia Oen tral Railroad, to the fortifications of Rich the Virginia CetoU Railroad and the Chickahominy river near the Meadows, tha white House railroad a little east of Tanstali s Sts tion, thence to ..New Kent Court House, and Williamsburgh Court-House, where the command arrived on Thursday last—having the sad dle nearly all the time from Snnday night—a pe riod of fonr days and during most of the time the men were smmlied from rebel larders and their horses fromrebel granaries.. Nearly three hundred prisoners were captured, several hundred horses were oressed into the service, and hundreds of ne- SoesavSiedthemselves of this opportunity, to, come within our Jinfs. As before stated, the command left Stevensbnrg Snnday evening, and moved toward Ely’s Ford. Forty men, under tie immediate command of Mr. Hogan—a weil-lcnown scout—had the advance. The first of the enemy were met within one mile 'of the ford—a picket, to give notice should any thing like an enemy approach. The picket, com posed of four men, by a little strategy was gobbled, with their horses. and accoutrements, without firing a shot or doing anything to alarm the reserve on the other side of the river —a force consisting of thirteen men, one Captain, one Lieutenant and eleven privates. Hogan and his party gained the opposite bank, and the night being cloudy, succeeded in enveloping, the reserve before they discovered his presence, and captured all but three. From these prisoners the important fact was ascertained that nothing what ever was known by the rebel authorities of the movement then on foot for their discomfiture Col Blric Dahlgren, accompanied by Mai. Cook of the Second New York Cavalry, and a small parky of picked men, took the advance after crossing the Bapidan, and, as they liad a special mission to perform, some account 0 f it -will be given elsewhere. The main command moved along with rapidity, taking the road to Spottsylyania Court House. Spottsvl vania was reached late at night no hilt was made, however, and the corps moved rapidly for ward to Beaver Dam, on the Virginia Central Badroad. _Oaptam Estes and Lieutenant Wilson, with a party of men, , dashed so suddenly upon this place that the telegraph operator was a prisoner before he had time to announce the arrival of rthe Yankees—much to his chagnn, for all the other telegraph lines had been cut, and Jeff. Davis, in his anxiety to know wbat was going on had been telegraphing that station fvery hour in the day for information. This plaoe was reached abouts o’clock, P M Monday, and the work of destruction was at once commenced. Small parties were sent up and down the railroad to tear np the track, burn the culverts and bridges, and destroy the rails by heating and bending them: this was comparatively an easy task, for there were thousands of cords of pine wood—all of which was burned—piled along the track, this being a wood station; a large new brick freight honseTloo by 25 feet, the telegraph office, passenger depot, engine-home, water-tank, several cars, and a number of outbuildings, were all set on fire. While the command was engaged In this-work of destruction, a picket reported the approach of attain loaffld with troops from the direction ° r . Hichmond, and here commenced the first fighting. General Kilpatrick advanced a column to capture the tram, if possible, but the enemy had seen the smoke of the burning station, and approached cautiously. They came on, howl ever, to within two miles of the station, and a por tion of the troops were disembarked. A small force was advanced to meet them, and in a charge our troops captured two officers and thirty men. jSeveral parties were sent out from this point to destroy the railroad at other points, and bridges on important roads. Major “2* of New York Cavalry, with a i^i ty t>^? nt *? destroy the Fredericksburg h ® lctl niond Bailroad bridge over the South Anna, at Taylorville, but found the place 5 10 |8 Iar y laild rebel battalion of rebel intantry, who had two pieces of artillery. This command was absent some time on important ser not rejoin the main column until the following day in front of Richmond. Not re time expected, a detachment under Captain Hull, of the 2d New York, was sent ont hhdtoflnd out the whereabouts of s party. Hall ran across a snperiorforce andhadabnsk skirmish, in which he lost five a “d was forced to retire. Another party under Capt. Plum, and Lieut. Lord was also sent off gnd returned m safety The main command, just at night rail, Monday, moved forward and during the night crossed the South Anna River Here toe advance had a skirmish with an infantry picket near Taylorsville, and dispersed them. The men crossed, a brief made *5 feed > when the column at daylight moved -ion to Richmond,’! be fore which, and within the second line of defences, a position was taken at o’ clock the same morn* O ll * ll6 "way Kilby station, en the Freder icksburgh road* was destroyed, and Lieut. Whita ker, ot Kilpatrick’s staff, blew op a stone bridge near Kilby Station, and the track and cul verts s were destroyed all along in that vicinitr Lieut. Boyce, of the sth New York Cavalry, with iSmen, cut the track and destroyed the telegraph at Guinea Station. . Tuesday, at o’ clock A. M., found the com- . pand passing tiie outer earthworks on the Brook turnpike, within 3# miles of Richmond. The ar- T^?.^ ee troops was entirely unexpected, pid tha indignation of some very good.looking women, standing in front of houses at the road” side, excited much amusement. The advance captured several men on picket duty belonging to the citizen soldiery of Richmond, without 5£ n S * fbot-and while waiting for the main column to come up? citizens were stopped and questioned with the ut. or conrse i did not know who their questioners were.

Forasio federal?’* X wae offered at one place a pile of Gon lA e J? le , 'crip large enough to fill In ordinary saddle bag. In the use of this money we had some experience. At a little oyster saloon abom six; mttes lr°m Richmond, Gen. iSrieg and a party of friends, numbering eight in all, partook “ raE “Ppe r which cost S&MO In GoAiKerate money,-and the proprietor readily took $32 Con federate and aSSgreenback for .he amount.- The fare consisted of eggs bacon, honey and bread. - >;t t 0 tbe fi aeeti °n of food, every family seemed !° b , 1 \ a bule \ At nearly every occnnied-house found a lot of chickens,and occasionally more or toss turkeys, ducks, geese and drakes, and not nnfreqnently small grnnters were to be seen reaming throagh the fields at will. It was quite evident that there was no superabundance of food, s °S d E ? p ? ly J of a PP^ e -i aok somehow conid always be obtained at $125 per gallon. Mock has been said of the publicity given to this raid before the movement was commenced or im mediately thereafter. It is undoubtedly true that agreatmany people knew that there was amoTe mt-nt on foot of some kind, bnt what kind, o ■ which way it.was to go, or its destination, It seem ■ nearly every one was in ignorance. The enemy knew nothing otthematter, and the correspondent m the field and at Washington, from the differen publications in the papers* It is quite certain «*ew hut little more than the rebels. The picke at Ely’s Ford knew nothing of it, and th-< column moved to Beaver Dam. on the Central iiailroad before hearing a hostile shot. So skill fully managed, indeed, was The whole affair, that “ e aunoancement of General Kilpatrick crossing me Kapidan was made in the Richmond papers on the very day he arrived before that city; Tb*» pickets within 3# mUU of Richmond were can-' lured before they were aware that an enemy’s force was near add wherever the column moved before reaching Richmond, the enemy were taken by snrpxise and were entirely unprepared to reeia the movement. Capt.Arnmr°ng, of the Commandiug-General’s staff, besides hie regular duties, had charge of the distributing of the President* s Amnesty Proclama tion. Printed in small pamphlet form, this pro duction was scattered hroad-cast everywhere. It was placed in the hands of the people, left in their houses, churches and .shops; stowed away in hooks and in every conceivable nook and conier, so that if any large portion of the people are dis posed to suppress the only public document ema nating from Mr. Lincoln which has not been reproduced in the Hfchmond papers, they will' hardly he able to accomplish their purpose. . J n , e , g l oes everywhere, as usual, manifested I reat delight at seeing a column ol Yankees, and thl^Jl?r e£er y ed ' r i as , t . lloQgh they expected to find all friends, and aided the expedition In various ways. They could always tel] where corn could be found for the horses, and where provisions and horses had been concealed. They frequently gave valuable information as to the location of the enemy's pickets, of the presence of scouts in the neighborhood, and could tell when the last Confe-' derate soldier passed along the road.

The association have already .secured the purchase of Cemetery Hill, Culp’s Hill, Granite Spue and Roond Top, with the . entrenchments thrown up just upon the eve of the great conflict wnioh was the turning point in the • ciireerof the rebellion . The field, with its redoubts, v wonderful stone defences, Its timber breast-v, orks, -iisforest heights, with the trees torn by shells and countless bmlets, and its long lines of earthwork defences, have all been preserved Intact, and to so continue to preserve them, as to be amonninsnt forever of the greatest of American Battle-fields, is the object of the formation of the Association. To enable a large number of persons to join In thij patriotic work, the projectors of the plan placed the subscriptions at ten dollars each.

I was obliged to get up as often as ten or twelve times during the night, and in five months I lost about fifty pounds in weight. During the menth of July, 1661, I mo. enred two bottles of Constitution Water, and in two day 9 alter using it I experienced relief, and after taking two bottles I was entirely cured- soon after regaining my nsnai good health".

I then* employed one of the best physicians I could find, who attended her lor about nine months, and while she . was under rus care she did not suffer quite as much pain. He finally ga.ve her up and said, her case was in curable. *>For,” said he, "she has such a combination tj compiaints, ihat medicine, given for cnc operates against some or her qf her difficulties. ’ ’ About this time she commenced the use of the Constitution Water, and,to our utter astonish ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly under its treatment, and now superintends entirely her domestic affairs. She has not taken any of the Constitution Water for about four weeks, and we are happy to sav thatit has produced aperma nentcure. WM._M. VAN BENSCHOTEN. Wethkrspikld, Conn., March 2, 1883. Dr. W. H.
