From the Army Of the Potomac.


NEW YORK, June IA special to the
Times from the Army of the Potomac. da.
ted the 9th, gives the particulars of our
crossing the RaPpahannock.
The crossing was very unexpected. Two
pontoons were laid at Frauklin's Crossing.
one mile below Fredericksburg. As soon
as the enemy discovered our purpose thew
bred on our men from their rife pits. but
were driven out by the 26th New JERSEY.
Some sixty of the I'd Florida were captH-
red. We lost killed and 25 wounded.
Our forces advanced cautiously, and by
dark they reached the Bowling Green road
and posted their pickets for the night.
This audacions movement surprised
many OF our own officers not less than the
enemys. 1t is properlya Reconnaissance
by which the commanding General hopes
to obtain positive information regarding
the enemy's intentions.
This morning enough was ascertained
force.
We took nearly one 100 prisoners, in
Guiding one major.
During the night Lee marched two corps
back from the vicinity of Salem Church to
position in front of our lines. Lonp-
streets corps reinforced the troops in
Fredericksburgh and slept there oil night.
This morning they moved ia southerIy
direction. -
By this bold movement We have demon
strated to certainty what has become of
the enemy, beside divining his purposes
The men behaved in the mott gallant man
ner, and cheered as they crossed for the
third time this historic stream. The
movement has thrilled the army with ex-
citement and with impotence.
