THE HERALD.
s,oneman,s Cavalry ral9.

The Confederacy has never received an
insult so Notifying and provoking as that
which it suffered y .sterday and the day be-
fore. The Federal army had reached and
taken possession of SpotsyIvania Court
House. From that poiut they have moi
only attempted and executed the maneuyer
suggested as probable in our last issue, but
a gIeat deal more. Leaving he body OF
the army stretched in line from hat point
TO the Rapilan, their cavalry under Gener-
al Stoaelnan, has pressed on to the Central
Rtlroad and cut it at TreviIians; then
penetrated to the roads between Richmond
and Fredericksburg, and cut that too at or
near Ashland, and at the moment we wife
Il believed to be carcerng unframed in the
open county ten miles from Richmond, IN
the rear Of Lees army, having passed bis
communicating with the city aud shut of
for the moment his source of supply.
That this audacicus raid will have any
serious effect on the great battle or battles
now fighting, or fought, 10 Spotsy wanna, Is
not possible. The trItling damage which
ths.e cavalry have done to he railroad can
he repai,ed sooner than it was effected.
But the event throws an unpleasant light
on the improyiQenee Of those who control
tiie military powers Of the country. Its
success shows that they are blind 10 the
character of the man now in command of
The Federal forces. He is no longer an
able, prudent officer making war according
To ths ruI.s Of the science, but a reckless
gambler, whe has nothing to lose and Is
ready to play on any chance, however des-
perate. Such adventures as these are pre-
cisely what might have been reasonably
expected OF him. But further, in the IN
vestigating committee of the Federal Con
gress, General Hooker while stating what
he thought should have been done ly Burn
SHE, laid down in so many words this iden-
teal cavalry campaign, as part of MS pro-
cranme! The Southern Government and
General was forewarned, yet would net be
foYearmed.
The lines Of telegraph between Rich
mond and Fredericksburg being Of course
severed, we are unable to give any authvn
tic intelligence from the scene OF real action.
1t IS generally believed that a decisive bat
tie was engaged, if not concluded, on yes
terday, with success TO the coufederates on
all points but one; but even rumor does
not flrnish detail beyond TIE circum
stance that the brave and able General A.
P. Hill has been ounded.-Richmopd er-
ominer, Nay 4.
