Adjourned.
[For the Telegraph
'Ninth Pennsylvania Cavalry.
This dashing and gallant regiment has re
turned home on furlong", having' re-enlisted
the first of January, ahnost unanimoui!y., In
the Department of the' Cumberland it won
bright laurels, and received honorable mention
in the official reports - of brigade and dizision
commanders. Few regiments have seen more
or harder service than the ' , Old Ninth." It
first distinguished itself ELt Perryville for cool
ness and. bravery. It chased John Morgan
through Kentuclty, and had many hand to
hand encounters with him, defeating him
against great odds. The engagements, in
which this regiment have participated are so
numerous that I append only the most import
taut.
The raid into, East Tennessee, from De;Cerla
ber 20, 1862, to January 10, 1863, through a
country infested with rebel troops and, guer
rilla bands, over the Cumberland Motuatains
in the dead of winter, was a most daring
movement, which was most - Successfrd, de
stroying bridges and'a railroad upon the upper
lEolston river, thus preienting Lee from rem
forcing Bragg before the battle of Stone river.
The raid was entirely successful; and was the
means of gracing Colonel*Carter's shoulder
with a "star.
March sth, 1862, it engagedlargely superior
forces of the enemy at Thompson's Station,
Tenn.,when the enemy being largely ,rein
force, it fell back in good order. It partici
pated in various ate:old upon Franklin and
Triune, by Van Dorn, Forrest and Armstrong.
Before Rosecrans' advance upon Tullahoma
the "9th" was assigned to, the First Cavalry
Division, commtnided'ihy Brig. , General R. B.
Mitchell, and participated most gallantly in
the engagements at Middleton and Rover. In
the charge on Shelby - ville June 27, 1863, dead
lug the advance, it particularly distinguis' hed
itself, using only the sabre..
previous
•
'Previous to Cb4eltamange, it pushed a re,
conneissance, oy,er §Etn4. and-LookvAkmpgn
tains, toward Lafiyette, Georgia, charging
into Joe Johnston's infantry, when, in obedi
ence to orders from the division commander;
.Webster
it fell back, and'took up its march for Chatta
nooga, participating in the memorable battle
of Chickamauga. • -
The pursuit of Wheeler upon his daring raid
after Chickamauga, in which it engaged and
routed the enemy several times, next dia
tinguished this regiment.
It was then ordered to East Tennessee,
which, after a fatiguing march over mountains
and rivers,it reached in December, 1863.
December 24th and 26th, it engaged the
enemy at Dandridge, where some brilliant and
dashing charges were made upon the rebel in
finity.- -In the engagement of the 24th De
cember, the enemy captiired a piece of artil
lery, when the 9th made a dishing charge and
recaptured the piece.
In the three engagements at Mossy Creek,
it again brilliantly took part, .recapturing one
piece of ,artillery captured by a charge of the
enemy. Its engagement at Fair Garden, more
particularly distinguished it for coolness and
bravery, than any previous engagements. This
action closed the series of cavalry engagements
in East Tennessee. The. Federal force was
less than 2;000, that of the enemy 8,000. Two
pieces artillery, - 800 small arms, and Gen.
Martin's battle flag were captured, with 200
prisoners, including 7 commissioned bificera,
three of whom were regimental commanders.
The battle flag of the 34th Indiana volunteers,
and a United States flag were also re-captured..
The enemy were completely routed and dia
persed, and thus ended the East Tennessde
campaign,'in which men and horses suffered
for want of rations and forage. Only the
most important engagementd have been men
tioned above, the regiment having been in
twenty-seven battles and thirteen skirmishes,
in all of which it exhibited those qualities
white make good soldiers.
January Ist., while in a cold and exhaust
ed country, the regiment re-enlisted, speaking
most eloquently for its patriotism and the
popularity of its commander, (Col. Thomas J.
Jordan.) The exigencies of the service were
such`that it would not be forloughed sooner,
'and now that it tan be spared; it has returned
to the " old Keystone"t b for a short respite,
when it will again return to the " tented
field," to win new laurels in the cause of
truth and human fredom, and the honor of
the good old Commonwealth.. Few regiments
have as good and efficient field officers as this
regiment, which is the secret of success.
We understand:that - Upon its return to the
'field, COL 7ordart will command` a brigadd,
which but few are more competent to do. In

Late E3medition on the Rappa-
The Navy Department has received a come
in - ardeation dated April 22d, from Commander
Fox, commanding the Potomac flotilla, in re
lation to the recent expedition up the Rappa
hannock. He says:
"Having learned from various sources that
the rebel Government had testablished a ferrY
at Circus Point, a few miles. below Tappahan
nock, on the Rappahannock river, and was
briskly engaged in collecting boats at the same
point on the river,for the purpose of attacking
the blockading vessels,. I proceeded thither
with a portion of the. flotilla on the 18th inst.;
where I remained until evening. I visited all
the Ferries from Circus Point to Windmill
Point, with the following result : Two terriei
were broken up, sevfin. large lighters, each
capable of carrying Ona,hundred Men, three
pontoon boats, twenty-tWo large skiffs and
canoes; two hundred-white oak beams and
knees lafge enough for the construction of a
ship-of-war, &c., twenty-two large boats— one
of which is capable -of carrying small arms !
and a large amount of bacon and wheat, &.c.,
which were brought off at Baler's Point,
on the south side of Rappahannock Land
ing. Our men were opposed by a force of
rebel cavalry, said to be five hundred, which
was kept at bay by the fire _of the Eureka.
"
In. Parott's Creek eight- seamen chased
six rebel cavalry. The rebels made an attack
on the Eureka on the afternoon of the 21st,
and were roundly ' thrashed. Commodore
Purken says he has it from reliable authority
that the rebels - have placed torpedoes in the
Rappahannock, and all the branches of the
Chesapeake. He speaks in high terms of the
Eureka. .
