We cave Yesterday IN )rnlng succlnct ac~
ooont of the movements Of the two great az
mics IN Virginia during Friday, Saturday, and
Sunday, and the arrival Of General Meade, at
tpr brilliant diminishing, at Rappahannock
Station.
Yesterday and day before Slight Skirmshes
took place, but General Meade could not IN
3qce Lee TO bring on an engagement.
AI the Indications go to show that Lee
hoped, BY arapil AMI secret flank movement to
Meade right to strike Brandy Station between
CuIpeper and the Rappahannock, cutting of
the line OF communication, and forcing Meade
70 rive ba;tIe under dl>advantageouS crcum-
stances with river in his rear and General
LIE between himself and his supplies,
Gen. Meade has succeeded IN placing him
seIfjn tbe desired position to defy any attempt
at flank movement by Lee.
The crossing to the north side Of the Rap
pahannock was made mainly at Kelly Ford,
and it was effected IN admirable order.
II is believed by some that there has been
general engagement. but this IS not the case,
as the fighting IN the main, was confined to
infantry and artillery
It mIy ye presumed that the movement of
Meade was, in TACT, one previously decided
upon in case oi certain contingencies as is In
djcated by bis sending to the rear some time
since. certain articles Of cumbrous nature.
As soon as the army took a good position
General Meade commenced reconnoitcring, for
Oh the same day rcconnojtering party Of the
9Th corps crossed the Rapl,ahannock and TO q
short distance oeyona, without incident, and
returned towards oight to near Bealton.
Another accommodating party skirted up the
right bank Of The Rappahannock Monday af
t4roooa. but with what result is not known,
AMI returned to the vicinity Of Rappahannock
Station the same day.

For the ieffersonian D.mocra
Union Musical Association.

A meeting Of the Uuion Musical Asso.
citation was held in Hambden, on Thurs.
day and Friday of last week, according
10 adjournment. This Convention was
held under very unfavorabe circum.
stances. Geauga County abounds in mud
in the spring OF the year and OF this,
judging from what saw there last week,
Hambden has its full share and liule
more and the Convention happened on
time whea it was in full depth. Happy,
indeed, was that pedestrian who, having
occasion TO cross the street, could find
board TO walk upon, with not more than
six inches Of sof clay aboveit. The pro-
priety Of attempting to hold conventions
in any OF our clay townships, at this par
ticulai season of the year, may well be
questioned. L. was also rainy on Thurs
day, vet few came together and had
good time. On Friday, above forty mem
6ers were present. Twenty Eve of these
were from the surrounding townships I;
the others, all ladies with one or two ex-
ceptions, residents Of Hambden. Nearly
all the men of the place who were for
meriy active in snch matters, namely,
Maynard, Bagg, Brewer, &C., are in the
army, fighting their BATTLES and ours !;
therefore the task Of warming and keeping
the house in order. and providing enter
tainment for man and beast devolved up.
on the ladies, which duty they performed
in a very acceptable manner, and for
which heartfelt thanks were duly rendered
Neither OF the conductors being pres
eht, Mr.. II. o. Wells. of Kirkland, W as
appointed to lead the singing, which he
did in manner which demonstrated the
fact that the Association need never lack
a good, capable and efficient Conductor
when he is present at its meetings.
The people,of Hambden have been very
unfortunate 10 the two Conventions which
have been held there, which is no fault Of
theirs, but occasioned altogether by cir.
cumstances over which they had no con-
troll. Ir no place in the Two Counties is
the warm hand of friendship more cheer,
fully given, or better entertainment freely
provided for man and horse, than by the
citizens OF Hambden and the writer OF
this would echo the request there made,
that, when the weather becomes settled
and the roads good, another meeting ol
the Association might be appointed there.
The next Convention ia TO be at Paines.
vile, on Tuesday, the 28th Of the present
month, to continue one day or longer, as
may then and there be determined. Pres

Union Leagues.

A Union League has boon formed in
this Township, and we trust one will be
formed in cvery Township ia tho County,,
1t is important that the unconditional
friends OF tho Union should be organized
and that all should place themselves right
upon tho record. Such papers as the Plain
Dedter are cndeavoring 10 retard the Union
cause by falsely representing Union Leagues
as undomocratic, oath. bound, "dark lantern"
abolition associations, having for their prime
object the nggrandzemont of tho leaders of
the Republican party. Tho people should
know that they are noithcr secret nor parti.
san in their nature or object, but are, as
thoy should DO, free and open to all lovers
OF the Uuion. We have no Knowledge Of
secret Union Leagues, save what We have
derived from tho Copperhoad journals /;
aud, if there are any such in existence, it is
very singular that they alono should be
aware of IT, all the Union Leagues with
which vo arc acquainted are purely demo-
cratic, and such as no opponent of secret
political societies cannot join, provided no
Is consistent and unwavering supporter of
the Government of his country. There Is
nothing intricate or mysterious about them,
tho only condition of membership being an
unqualified pledge of loyalty. Judge Can.
fold was industriously engaged, during The
whole Of election day, in circulating such
pledge among the voters of this Township.
aud We arc glad TO learn that fow refused TO
sign it, For tho benefit of Union men in
other Townships, we appOnd copy of said
pledge: .-, .-i..er.. sd
THE CHARDoN LOYAL UNION LEAGUE.
The undersigned citizens OF Chardon,
unqualified denemies to treason and traitors,
North or South opposed to dissolution Of
the Union, opposed TO au armistice, and
opposed to any compromise with rebels,
but in favor Of conquerng an honorable
ard lasting peace, do hereby pledge our.
selves to an unconditional loyalty to the
Government of the United States, TO mn
uuwavering support of its efforts to sup.
press the Rebellion, and to spare no en-
deavor TO maintain unimpaired the Ma
iional unity, both in principle and terrific
rial boundary. The primary object OF this
League is, and shall be, to bind together
all loya! men, of al! trades and occupations,
in common union to maintain the power,
