A MORE FAVORABLE REPoRr.-A letter
from Lieut.. Hall, Of the Cavalry Regiment,
gives some additional facts of the late en-
gagement OF the Vermont Cavalry, which re-
deem the detachment from the apparent dis
credit which attached to its conduct in that
unfortunate affair. Lieut.. Hall says:
Tg9 Of our s. asp % SA9 ssls ; near Broad Run
rolled At Adie W learn from that all previous in
formation concerning the rebel force and its disposition
was very wide the truth Instead Of their being only
sxty-seyeu under Capt Moshy there were with him
three other Captains with their commands making in
all some two hundred men hess additions 10 Mosbys
force keutuckians and &c. rllans. The man who
bring this report entirely reliable, and have had
much better opportunity 10 estimate the number Of the
rebels than any one could have had Ia the few
Of actual conflict especially considering the fact that the
uniforms OF the contendng parties we're alike Indeed,
their account is confirmed by the fact that their paroles
were not signed oy Mostly, but by an artillery Captain
named Chapman.
Il would seem that their intention was to make a dem
ousrAuon against the Dtansvllc force, Of whose re
moyal the Monday before they vcrc not apprsed To
that end Mosby upon Hefndon, hoping 20 surprise
and capture the pCkes there again ami draw out scouts
federaCs either 10 fal upon the OF the scouting
parties and their retreat off, attack the main
force thus weakened, at Drausyillc. IL was at Hern-
don that his counted, and the information sent
upln which scout Of one hundred and forty eight
men oula force which would nave been amply
sufficient cope with Mosby alone but which proved
mourniuy insufficient TO contend with the force It was
compelled TO engage"
A Richmond paper notices the arrival there
Of NINETY nine Yankees" being portion Of
the Vermont Cavalry captured on Wedues-
day of last week The same paper says that
no officers were among the prisoners, they
having all been killed in the conflict
