Camp Alger, Va Juno 23, General J. P. f?. Gobln arrived at 6 o'clock this afternoon to report to General Graham for formal assignment. As luck would have it, the Pennsylvania briga'de was on Its two days' practice narch when Us new brfka'dler arrived. J will take ihatgv tomonow after- 1 Oil , General Gobln cume to uump alone I In a lilted ,-KI." ami can led nothing Villi him in the way of afcoutioments k i-ept a small hand -atchc! and a I void. Theie Is .1 very evident Intention to 1 hi' a laiRi- bod uf men from here 1 the "eaillest possible moment. Gen- .il Miles Is foimliiK a Porto Rico 1 ny and he Intends that there shalt J 1.0 such exasperating delays In Its formation as characteilzed the gut ting away of the Shaftei expedition. ne Thlity-thlid and piiirty-fouith J'lililgan, Secretin Alger's home regl J puis, wanted to get away early. Gen ii ai Miles was leiiuested to gle them 1 show. He did. Although they did 1 t li.no all their iccrults, they were lied at ;i o'clock at night to leave 1 li o'clock next morning. Tho fol t wing letter which the brigadiers are 1 ndlng throughout their regiments In- 'iites that there is a hurried hunt b r available men: In accordance with onHi-f, from Major Geneial Commanding Second Army corps. uu will report to tliece licidtiuiirters with the least posMblo delay the number ot enlisted men In oui (dnunaml. of ull arms, that ai" fully aimed and equipped, that W to m, with ordnance and ord nance stores, quartermaster supplies, tentage and In gnuial nil things that the government supplies them with. The major geneial Is emphatic In calling for a speedy report. FIRST TO HE CALLED. The regiments that are nearest com pletion In the matter of organization and equipment can expect to be called from hero at any hour. Tho Thir teenth, whose guns were all condemned last week by Inspector Rutler, Is not likely to be In the Hist hatch that goes. It is also lacking in canvas suits, but It would not take long for the government to supply these If It bet out to do It. Theio Is no telling when a call may come. Colonel Coursen's brigade arrived at Chain Hrldge on tho Potumao at 11 o'clock this mornlne after four and a half hours of bard and exciting mnith, hard becaus. nf the heat and dust, and exciting because of the harass ing assaults of the cavalty. Reveille was hounded at 4 o'clock with the intention of getting under way at six, hut owing to unforseen delays It was live minutes later than this when the stmt was made. The expedition moved under (III c tlons from division headquaiteit, ns If marching through an enemy's c Min ify. Klist In line came Adjutant II. M. Coursen, of the second battalion, Thliteenth icglment. who formed one of the p.uty thut had prelimlnaiy sui veyed the mute nnd who a. 'ted as guide. Under his dliectlon maiched a detail from tile Twelfth acting us ad vance guaid. They weie strung out in the foun of a crescent with til" houui nbout live hundred yaids apart. Next to them came the reseive. then the first rcblHtance, then the pioneer corps with axes, picks and shovels to clear the load and build bildge, and dually the main column. Th Thliteenth was under command of Lieutenant Colonel Matte nnd was headedby the new band and the dium corps. The rear guaid consisted of Companies E and II, of the Thliteenth nnd was under the charge of Major Wood. On both sides of the entire col umn Hankers were thrown out to pre vent n surpilse nnd at every croso road a squad with fixed bayonets kept guard while the main body was, ,)'iss ing. COMPANY ALLOWANCES. Each company was allowed to take only sixteen tew of fours. Tho othom, principally left behind to guard tins camp. Cuptain Kambeck, the offi cer of tho day, being In charge and Assistant Surgeon Kellar lemaiulng behind to look after their health. The medical end of the expedition was In chaigo of Acting Rrlgado Surgeon Hurkei four attendants in charge of these icgtmental surgeons and quad of stewards and ordeilles comprising his section of the column. The detailed orders for march were promulgated by Acting nrlgadler Gen eral Coursen., The brlgndo left tho camp at 6 o'clock a. 111. , nnd pioceed?d bv an eight mile loute to the banks of the Potomac in the neighborhood of Gieat Palls, two miles above Georgetown. The men weie in heavy marching older and can led the recent ly issued shelter tents on their backs, each man cnnylng half a tent. When they bivouaped two men slept under each tent. Two days cooked rations were can led. Puisuant to the order from division headquarters the men matched as If in an enemy's country, with guatds thrown out to fiont, Hank and rear. The first battalion of the Twelfth Regiment was detailed as adwince guaid. Companies G and H of tho Thirteenth foimed the tear guaid. Tho wagon tuiln composed of two wagons from each leglment followed the Eighth, which was the second regi ment In the line, a company fiom that regiment acting as guard. A lieutenant, a non-commissioned olllcer nnd twelve privates fiom each regiment was de tailed as a pioneer corps. They carried axes, picks and shovels nnd following In the wake of the Hist line of skir mishers opened or repaired roads, etc. Kirst Ketgeant Kredeiick A. Snyder, adjutant of the Twelfth leglment. was named by Colonel Com sen us acting engineer officer of the expedition. He took u sketch of the country through which the troops matched and will submit It to brigade headquarters upon tho return from the trip. Commandeis of leglments weie Instructed to repot t to Colonel Coursen upon their leturn and give a detailed statement of tho experience ot their teglments on the trip. Lieutenant Robeits ot Company n, had chnige of the Thirteenth detail for tho pioneer corps. AN ATTACK. Major General Hutler tho nlcht be fore lisd secietly given orders to tho cavaliv squadron to dispatch ono hun dred troopers In piiisult of the infantry and if possible capture their piovlslou ttaln or cut off their rear gimtd. No Intimation wan given th" Infantry that they were to he attneked, but as other expet'ltlons had encounteieri this ex pel lence. Colonel Coin sen took It for granted that there would be an attack and so notldtd his command. The re sult nus that scouts, sklimlshers, flank 'I" and guaids were constantly on th" nl"rt for 'yellow jackets" Tho mnich had proceed' d nn hour without a sign of the enemy and tho boys were beginning to think that they weie net to bo molested, when out of th woods on a ele'uing a half mile to the right one of the trooper's scouts suddenly buist upon their view II" had dlscovoitd himself unintentionally, but quick as u Hash tinned about and swung himself out of sight on the off side of his hcise and dashed back Into the woods. He evldentlv hi ought up the main holy of the lioopets loi fiom tills time on the country seemed to be falily alive with cavnltymon. Time and again they v. eio encountPied laying for a weak sunt in the line, but when thev failed to Hnd what they thought might be a vulin rablc spot they would dash away like mad, to turn up later at some other point of the column. One persistent fellow dogged one tear guard foi two miles and had a lit o fun with the squadi, that were detailed to cnptuie him. A corporal and tin en or four men would secrete themseh'es behind a house or In a (dump of bushes waiting for him to come up. He would ild" along with an easy air us If all un suspicious of u tiap, but Just us tho In fantrymer would bo preparing to spring out upon him he would leap his hoise oer a fence, dash through a Held and disappear In the woods. A nillo fui-the- on the ranie aggravating fellow would bo fennel twilling leisurely along tlio load icady to lepeat his dating es capade. THREE PRISONERS. Three of the troopers who were not ns wily us the trailer fell Into our hands. Two of thtm, the surgeon, Dr. Ciinciar, and the veterlmrv. Dr. Roll, werej sitnuised in n farm house by tho Hnnkeis and taken into custody. They found 'themselves cut off and thought to nvold detection by stripping their horses of their accoutrements, turnlns thoin loose in tho farm yaid nutl roti rating Into tho house. They wero caught In tho act, however, and weie put in ono of tho ambulances under guard, The third prisoner was Pm.i'o Flala. of Troop C, the well-known sketch jitist of the Brooklyn Eagle. His hoise inn away with him and cai iletj him plump against the jear guard. He was heavily thrown and badly cut up about the face. When he recovered fioin the shock he was placed In the ambulance with the two other pilson er!. The advance guaid put two otheis to hasty flight, one of them losing his hat and the other his carbine. Adju tant Coursen kept the hat us a trophj. Lieutenant Corless, of the Twelfth, who picked up the carbine, teturned it. When the column arilved at riialn Rrldge the troopeis weie found there grazing their horses. Thev had ghen up the light and admitted, when our boys came up with them, thut the "coal heavers" weie too much for them. They complimented our defensive woik In tho highest teims, but said It was a dirty Spanish tilck to make prison eis of suiseons and a wounded man. The Hoopers lettirned to camp after a tluee hours' rest. The Pennsyhanlans continued up the river nbout a mile, camping on a hUh piece of ground on the .Maryland sido of the Uver. about one hundred yaids from the water. ROUTE TRAVELED. The route traveled was about eight miles. Tho time made, four and one half houis, was an hour and a half better than any pievlous expedition hud been credited with. The men were all thoroughly tired, but not a single case of piostratlon was reported. Tho loads were narrow, hlllv and dusty, but despite tho hard marching the boys showed no great Inclination to rest when a halt was made, few of them taking tho trouble to throw off their burdens, preferring to lean aunlnst a fence or rest on their guns until the order would como to move on again. They were anxious to get to the river. At lived at tho camp tho dog tents weie pitched and then the men set to making cofteo and pleparlng dinner. It wns very plain, but It was eaten with gteat relish. The remainder of tho afternon was given over to bath ing, such of the men who wero nut on guaid or other camp duty spending all their time in or about the water. The evening programme includes band con ceits and the like. The men will bu sent to bed early so that they will bo icfreshed for the march hack to camp, which begins at o'clock tomoirow morning. T.
