Cpedsl Dispatch to tho Plttsbnrgb Oautte.
Phuabxlphia, May 8, 1863.
The New York fines, of Tuesday, publishes
an elaborate account of the military opera
tion* on the Bappahannook up to Bunday
night, from which I make the following ab
stract. The narrative oommenoos on tho 27th
of April, and says:
It is on Monday morning, and the army
is all in motion. The vast area it covers, of
miles and miles in extent, is an animated
scene of bustle and stir. The camps are
broken, and the eoafortable log huts and win
ter quarters, in which the men have been
lodged for months, are abandoned;
of troops are moving on a down different
roads, carefully oonoealing themselves from
the enemy's view by marching through the
woods and behind the knolls and ridges of
the broken ground along the Rappahannock.
Long trains of artillery, pack mutes and am
bulances, add their own features of the im
posing and the picturesque to the scene. The
army in all its aspeots, material and moral, la
in splendid condition. It is larger, and the
health of the troops Is better than it ever was
before. From the first day Gen. Hooker took
command it was felt that a directing brain an
imated the mass.
Great mobility has been sMured by pro
digiously cutting down the amount of trans
portation, and by employing paok
which go anywhere in all weathers, instead of
our heavy wagons, which are always stuok iW
the mud. But two wagons are allowed to a
regiment. The army Uno longer encumbered
with that ponderous tespeduMaia whloh used
to be the marvel of all who beheld it. In fact,
we now approximate to the French standard,
which enables an army to carry fourteen days*
provisions withoat a wheel behind it.
The moraTtransformation was not less com
plete. Nothing in this line of phenomena
was more striking than the admirable secrecy
that existed In regard to the proposed-plan mad
movements of the opening campaign. It was
a new and somewhat tantalising sensation; for
any one who has followed the movements of.
the army frill testify that, hitherto, projected
operations have always been known and dis
oossed by nearly every body, even tho negro
servants, in the eamps for days and weeks be
fore they took place. In this case, absolute
ignoranse prevailed. Not even the corps com
manders knew what was intended, and had
only their spedfio individual order for tho day.
In this easo tho ipeotators of the great game
of ehtsi were blindfolded. The master player
alone had his eyes open.
In the great game of war time and space
me the elements with which-the General has
to deal. Celerity, and for tbat parposo the
greatest possible mobility, with soorooy, are the
Indispensable conditions of all military com
binations. The mind of Gsn. Hooker is
that will put forth all the resources of • these
elements.
By Tuesdoy morning, an uaU eji might

the river. The remaining four divisions
stayed on the other side ; but they were hot
idle. They were put in motion oh the Mil
siope on one side of the river, and In plain
view of the enemy, were marohed along the
crest of the ridge, and down as though to the
crossing. But, instead of crossing, they were
quietly drawn up back through a gully,
round the rear of the ridge, and round again
on itl top. They made theappesranoe of an
army of at least 100,000 men, and most have
presented the appearance of a massing on eur
side preparatory to a passage of the river, un
der cover of the night. The effeot on the
rebels was prompt.
Two hours afterwards their columns be
gan moving up the Bowling Green road
from down the river. Here a con
siderable foroo, including the whole of
Gen. Jackson's corps, had been posted as
a corps of observation. The Bowling Green
road is at this point a sunken road, but we
soon began to doteot at various points the
rebel column moving up, the bayonets glis
tening in the son. __
? We were about a couple of mites distant
during Sunday and Monday.
Howard's Corps, the 11th, Bloeum's Corps,
the 12th, and Gen. Meade’s, the sth, had been
moving to the upper fords of the Rappahan
nock.
On the night of Tuesday, between 10 p. m.
and 2 a. m., Howard's entire oorps OTessed
the .Rappahannock on the pontoon bridge at
Kelly's Ford, 27 miles above Falmouth. At
daylight Gen.. Slocum's corps followed, and
during the forenoon Gen. Meade's corps was
then thrown aoross. This-movable column
thon struok direct for Germania ford, on the
Rapidan river—distant 12 miles—one of the
main afllaonts of the Reppahannoek, into
which it empties. At United States ford,
Gen. Meade, however, instead of taking this
direction, on passing tho river, struok a road
diverging eastward, and made Ely's ford, on
the. Rapidan, 8 miles nearer than Germania
the emboochore of that stream Into the
Rappahannook/
At Germania ford a foroo of about one hun
dred and fifty rebel pioneers was discovered
building a bridge. These, by a well executed
maueuver, were all captured.
Celerity of movement being the ehief de
sideratum, It was resolved immediately to pat
the troops over by wading, an affair not very
easy of oxeention, for the waters of the Rap
idan, even at the ford, come up to a man's
shoulder, and the current is very rapid. The
men, how&ver, plunged In, many of them
Stripping and carrying their clothes and
ridge boxes on their bayonets, and waded
over. In the meantime u foot bridge had
been ocsstruoted on the abutments already
placed there by the rebels, and during the
night the whole remaining force was passed
over, the piers being lighted up with hege
bonfires. While this wee going at Germania
ford, Meade's troops were croaking at Ely's
ford."
' Both columns now moved, as ordered, for
ChenceUorviUe, at the junction of the Gor
dontTlile turnpike with the Culpepper and
Orange Court House plank road*communica
tion being kept up between the two movable
columns by a squad of Pleasanton's cavalry,
while another pari of tho same horsemen
moved on the right fiank of the pouter columns
to protect it from rebel cavalry attacks.' This
manenvre having unoorered United States
Ford, which lies between Kelly's Ferd and
Falmouth, twelve miles from the latter.
Couch** corps, which had for three deya been
lying at that point, was passed over the Rep
pahannockby a pontoon bridge on Thursday,
without any opposition, or 1 indeed any demon
stration more:tormidable than* a brass band
playing Hail Columbia. . This force also con
verged toward Ghencellorvltle; and on Thurs
day night four army oorps, via: Howard’s,
Stevens', Meade's and Coueh'f, were massed
at this point. -
That same night General Honker and Staff
reached CoauoeUorville, and established his
headquarters In the only house here.
Lee’s surprise was great when he heard
that the Unitn army was across the river and
had turned his dank. A proof; of this is the
fact that when we were aoross ihe Rapid-Ann
the enemy was yet picketing ihe Reppahan
nook. We also hare documentary‘evidence of
Lee's surprise, in a tetter whloh was found in
tho house at Chaaealiorvilte, mitten by Gen
eral Lee himself to the rebel officer command
ing the post atChancellorville, and was dated
from Lee's at 4:29 o’elook *. u.
of thedey we arrived. It stated In subitanoa
that the general had at that moment heard
that Ihe Federal force was aoross Ely's Ford,
(we 1 had been aoroie eighteen hours) that Gen.
Anderson, who commanded at U. 5. Ford
with a oouple of brigades, knew nothing of
our arrival, and asked him to oomt down im
mediately and oonsult with the commanding
gsnenl.
It will be seen tbit the position gained ot
Ch&ncsUorvillo, wbiefe is ten* miles west by
souCi of Fredericksburg, completely turns the
llae of rebel defense# on the series of ridges
In the reer of Fredericksburg, end in feet
there vu now batons elUrnsUre: the enemy
mast either ritreot'clong the line of the reli
roed toward Biebmond while’ that line wes
yet uncut, (for there wes no other line of re
treat, the eommunioatlon with 'Gkrdonsrilla
being ‘threftiMod by oar bold on thit line,) or
else come oat end give ns bftttte on onr own
ground. Lee hod been completely oat-gen
eraled, and In ft strfttegio point of view had
infferedn defeatbefore we had.flred a single
shot* It was in this sense, aa4 flbt In the
meaning that they wore ootaeliy destroyed,
that Can. Hooker, on the night of our arrival
al GbonoellorviUe, proudly proclaimed that
the rebel army is now the legitimate property
of the army of tho Potomac* Oeu. Lee seems
to have felt himself strong enough to pursue
the Utter alternative, and be took prompt
measures to carry h!i plan into execution*

On Friday morning. Geni Hooker began the
stragetio disposition of his force..-, As the en
emy has b«bn‘ engaged With us all along this
line, and as the disposition has slnoethen
boon altered, there can' be ho ohjto)lon t: io itute
that it formed a line of battle of a triangular
or redan shape, resting,.with its wings respeo
tively on the Rappahannock between Balnk
and United States Ford 'and Hart’s Creek and
having its apex at Chanoellorville. Thaday
was occupied with operations along .tbfnUr*
mish line and reoonnoissanoes for the purpose
of feeling the enemy-
On Friday, at noon, Sykea* division of
Meade’s oorps was sant oat on a reoonnols
sanoeon tha Banks Ford road, and in ilk*
manner a portion of Slocum’s command was
sent out about throe milm on th*Frederick**
burg plank road, . These feelers had a two
fold object; first, to oadse the enemy to.de
velope hte fotoe and also .to make topography
eal surveys to correct errors in existing maps.
The situation of Chanoellorville Is in the

,The ground in the nglon between here and
Frederioksburg is broken and wooded, there
being occasional clearing* in the forests. It
rises as it nears Frederitkiburg, when it de
velops into bold heights. Its strategic im
portance, as already indicated, is derived from
the fast that tt ooveri the Fredericksburg turn
pike and the ■Culpepper and Orange Court

Gordonsvllle. The military situation on Sat-,

nearly all day.
It was rumored teat thUmlght be a retreat;
but in order to ascertain what it really was,
General Sickles, who was still in reserve, was
ordered to make a reoonaoisaaae* In keavy
force la teat direction. Oar troops moved
rapidly, and soon became more or less engag
ed, sending to a number of prisoners of the
23d Goergla regiment, who were examined,
the result being to show that the wagon train
which we had seen moving during the day
was composed mainly of ordnaoeewagoes and
ambulancte* and that Stonewall JackaonAnd,
staff were at the bead of a column of troops
which tire wagon* followed. Nothing, more
was needed to eonvinee us that this daring
opponent w»s executing another of his sudden
movements, and It was at ones resolved to
checkmate him. Geo. Sickles was ordered to'
push on, and Gen. Williams* division of Slo

Birsey pushed ahead with great vigor/with
Randolph's battery, and toon sent to the rear
