NEw York. Oct 13.--The Washing
ton RepuJlican of last evening conta ined
the following. which the Censor would
not allow to be telegraphed to the press:
We have information from the front
this morning, that Gen. Meade's army
has fallen hack to this sile of the Kappa
hammock. followed by Lees army. which
is in great force about half mile from
tho south side Of thnt river.
The enemy male a feint Of moving up
the valley on. the southern bank Of the
Robertson riTer. and our cavalry under
Butord, crossed at Germans Ford and
took possession Of the earth works aban-
doned by them. When our forces were
all across the enemy came against Buforl
in great force and drove him across the
river without time to destroy the crossing.
and pursued him to Rarpabannock Sta
ton.
Fitzpatrick with force Of cavalry. and
artillery. which had made reconnaissance
near Madison Court House, was cut off
yesterday afternoon on the road to Gull
pepper by portion OF Ewell's corps,
which was formed across the only road by
which he could retreat. in twelve ranks.
with two regiments on each flank.
Fitzpatrick was compelled to charge di-
rectly into chem. He lei the charge in
person. telling his men than they must do
or die. The cavalry cut its way through
under the concentrated fire, such as hes
hardly been experienced by our troops du-
ring the war, and probably his rear with
his artillery retired through Cnlpepper.
Kilpatrick's loss in killed and wounded
am ounted to $50. s
Gen. Meade is said to have displayed
good generalship in bringing his army
back to the line of the Rappahannock
when the enemy made his feint OF moving
up the valley. Meade also made the feint
of following him in force to attack him in
therear. massing his troops at Raccoor
Ford for that purpose This drew bacl
Lees army, so that the intended thanking
movement was frustrated, and Meade has
brought off every wagon and all his
stores.
