Our army Correspondence. Madison C. H., Va., July 28, 1863. Having been on the march with Ewell's corp since Thursday, the 23d, I have had no opportunity of communicating with you, and no means of forwarding a letter had the opportunity of writing been presented. I have just arrived here, and have only time enough before the closing of the mail for Richmond to give some particulars of the fight at Manassas Gap, on the afternoon of the 23d, the day we left Winchester. Generals Longstreet and Hill preceded Gen. Ewell, and passing through Chester's Gap, in the Blue Ridge, Wright's brigade, of Anderson's division, was detached by Gen. Hill, and left to guard the pass until Gen Ewell, who was in the rear, should have sufficient time to come up, cross the river at Front Royal, proceed without interruption down the Valley and cross the mountains at a point lower down.

From Gordonsville. Gordonsville, Oct. 8. --The enemy were yet in apparent force at Culpeper C. H. this morning. Their main body moved above that point, and it is supposed they are between Madison C. H. and Sperryville. Twenty-five prisoners, captured by White's battalion at the Chain bridge, four miles from Washington, and ten prisoners captured on Robertson's river, were brought here to day.
tion of the Rapidan is most complete, and has been very rapidly made. A letter from "Headquarters of the Army of the Potomac," dated the 11th, says: For two or three days past the enemy have been concentrating a large force around Madison C. H., and Friday night and Saturday morning they moved out of town in a northwardly direction. A division of infantry, a large body of cavalry, and considerable artillery, were occasionally seen by our signal men through the openings in the forespurpose of cutting off our railroad communication. Measures are progressing to give him a fitting reception in that quarter. We are also prepared for an attack on our front. The advance of Hill's corps probably commenced moving from Madison Court House Thursday morning. The "rebel" raids are getting very bold. A Washington dispatch, of Sunday, says: Last night a party of mounted guerillas moved to various locations on the Southern side of the Potomac, including Baily's Cross
ements of the Army of Northern Virginia than any I have seen published in the Richmond journals. On the evening of the 9th inst, Gen. J. R. B. Stuart, with one division of his command, left camp, on the Rapidan, and moved in the direction of Madison C. H. One brigade, commanded by Col. J. R. Chambliss, of Gen. Fitz Lee's division, was ordered by Gen. Stuart to proceed promptly from the vicinage of Raccoon Ford and cross the river at Peyton's Ford and picket the Robertson river, and keep up the line of pickets unbroken until he could swing around by way, of Madison C. H. and cross the Robertson in this neighborhood. Gen. Stuart, leaving his bivouac early on the morning of the 10th, crossed the Robertson above James City, and captured a number of the enemy's cavalry. He soon came up with the 120th New York regiment of infantry on picket at Bethesia, and ordered a charge, and came nigh capturing the entire regiment. A few only made their escape by flying rapidly to the mountains. L
