Detailed accounts Of the movements
Of the Amy Of the Potomsc, published
in the Herald, z;mss and Tribune, but
fally covered BY the Associatsd Pres,
were transmitted lac. night.
The Trs6sss's correspondent reports.
that when he left the army at noon on
Saturday it was advancing. lie heard
heavy cannonadipg till nigh.fail from
the direction Of our left and center.
Nine Of Mosby's pirates we're captured
on Saturday At Cat!let's Station, includ.
ing lieutenant.
The guerriIlas captured one of our
officers and four privates on Sunday near
Br,thville.
The ztib,sns's accounts cay that on
Friday deserter who came in asserts
that Lee held the line Of the Rapidan
last night, but foil back on Friday into
HE present position in our front advance
Of 10 nilee.
He also asserts that the enemy had
not used any artillery in response to our
assaults, but were moving it to the rear
for the purpose, as he supposed, Of get
ting better position. Gen. Meade de
ceived the enemy a. to his point of
crossing.
It il reported that Leo had his entire
army in line Of battle all day Thursday
fronting Mo,tou's Ford, supposing We
were to cross there. He thus abandoned
the long line Of most formidable earth
works on the south and southwest bank
Of the river.
Saturday at day break Meade advanced
TO the front. Picket firing soon com.
meoced, and continued at intervals up to
noon. at which time the enemy had fall
len back : miles and the impression
prevails that he is retreatiug.
Our line OF battle now, must extend
about Q miles, in the form of triangle.
The whole army is ready aud impa-
tient.
Large numbers of prisoners continue
to come in.
The World's correspondent under date
Of Nov. 9th, says:
Late in the afternoon it WIS evident
from what could be observed at the
front, that the enemy were making dem.
orstrations on our right. Heavy firing
was heard, but a. we had no communi-
cation, it was not possible to get any
particulars.
1t has been aacertained, however, that
tho enemy made most determined eff
fort to turn our right wing, and Gen.
French repulsed them and had taken
900 prisoners. Gen. French is reported
to have lost heavily; it is said from l.
600 to 1900 in killed and wounded.
A thick fog and rain has &C, in. We
have advanced our picket line at the
front, but up to noon nothing more than
skirmishipg had been done.

whom his memory will doubtless be perpetuated
with pleasing sadness. ASS token Of respect to
the fallen Mave it is hereby ordered that the usual
badge of mourning be worn by the officers Of this

Lt.-Col. Commanding Regt.
SIMON S. BRUKER, Lieut.. s. A. Adjt.
At meeting of the officers of the seth III. Regt.,
Sept oath, 1858, called for the purpose of express
ing the deep regret felt in the loss of brother Off
Ger and friend, the following resolutions were ap-
proved and adopted:
Whereas, On the night of September 23d, 1868,
Capt Joseph Woodruff, Of Co. X, 39th Ill. Vols,
while on duty as officer in command at Fort Gregg,
and when about to be relieved from said duty, was
wounded by shell from Fort Moultrie which car
ried away large portion of his right side, causing
his death in less than two hours after the receipt OF
the injury, therefore
Resolved That while we recognize the hand of
God in all things, can but mourn the loss Of our
brother officer, and one Of our country's noble
defenders and, while we so deeply regret the Vi
olent death that snatches from us, one, whose
every act endeared him to all whose loyalty, patri
otism and bravery proclaimed him true man and
soldier we cannot but feel that Our loss is his gain,
and that he has left world Of suffering and gone
to join that band of noble patriots that have fallen
before him in their country's defence.
Resolved That we tender our heartfelt sympathies
to the family and friends in this their sad bereave-
ment of kind husband, father, and generous COM
panon, and trust that he fell while at his post and
in the discharge of his duty and that in dying, he
evinced, while sensible, that spirit of resignation
which bespeaks the faith Of christian

THE REBEL RAMS DETAINED BY THE ENGLISH
GoyERNMENT-The London Post says some doubt
has been cast upon the statement which we made
few days ago with reference to the steam rams
in course of construction at Mr.. Laird's yards.
We can only repeat our certainty of its accuracy.
The government has given notice to the builder
that the ships will not be allowed to leave the Mer
sey; and if it is found that their construction is
contrary to the terms of the Foreign enlistment
Act, they will be seized violating its provisions.
The London Shipping Gazette still thinks that if
the steam rams at Liverpool are detained, it can
only be by stretch of authority for which, of
course the advisers Of the crown would be held
responsible.
The London Herald of the 18th inst, in leader,
SAYS: We have good reason to believe that the
government has committed itself to an overt act in
the affairs of the steam rams built at Birkenhad.
We are informed that Earl Russell on Wednesday
dispatched by written missive positive order to
Messrs Laird to prevent these vessels leaving their
ward without an ample explanation Of their desti-
nation and suitable reference to the owner or
owners for whom they are constructed.
The London Post, Sept. ii, says The Foreign
Enlistment act makes it misdemeanor to equip,
or fit out, or arm vessel ofwar in an English port,
with an intent that it may be used against govern
ment with which the queen is at peace, and it au-
thorzcs the seizure of any ship so fitted out in con-
travention of the statute. But the intention mus
be proved, and the government cannot, as has been
prepo:terously suggested, call on Mr.. Laird to say
what is going to be done with the vessels he is
building There must be proof of the intention of
the shipbuilder, and we presume the government
have been furnished with evidence which, in the
opinion of their law officers justified interference
with the ships. Whether that evidence will bear
cross examination is quite another thing; and, for
our own part, we are freeto admit thr the Foreign
Enlistment act so far es it prohibits building ships
of war, is almost imperative; but that it was the
duty of the government, with any evidence before
them justfying the proceeding, to take the steps
they have taken with regard to vessels the build
ing of which appears to have been conducted with
much unnecessary mystery, is, we think, beyond
dispute and it is not, far as we are aware, dis
puted except in party sense and with factious
object in view.

HEADQUARTERS 39rH ILL. Vols,
Morris Island, S. c., Sept. 25th, 1868.
Special Order No. 60.


With profound sorrow the Lieut.-Col. Com
manding announces to the regiment the decease OF
Capt. JOSEPH WOODRUFF OF Go. K, 39th Ill. Regt.
who died in regimental hospital, Morris Island, S.
c.. Sept 23d, 1863, few hours after he received
fatal wound from the enemy's gun.
Captain WOODRUFF was among the many brave
men, who after the first repulse of our inexperi-
enced army at Bull Run, rushed forth with martial
spirit to support the flag of our troubled country,
and vindcate the majesty OF her laws, by rebels
ignored. Leaving lucrative business, large
circle of firm friends and young and confdng
family, he collected around his countrys standard
a COMPANY of patriots, and led them from his ma
tive village, Marsailes, Lascelle county, ILL.,, to
camp Martin, in Chicago, where.he linked his des-
TIMES with the 39th Ill Regt. The long and
winding war-path over which he has gallantly led
lis company, the severe hardShips and stern prl-
vaions he has patiently endured, and the unaffect
ed bravery and deep seated patriotism he has ever
eNnced, form part of our rsgimeptal history, and
hence need not here be enumerated.
3 He entered upon the operations before Charles
ton with quiet, vet commendabie enthusiasm, and
from the day his regiment broke ground for the
first fort on Folly Island to the evening the missile
of death met him in Fort Gregg, he exhibited
determination ofapurpose, remarked Dy many ana
surpassed by none.
The ranking officer in the line, he was frequently
called to command the regiment, and his official
ability was such, that his fellow officers looked anx-
iously forward to the time when promotion should
be granted him as meritorious reward, but in
this, they are only too sadly disappointed. On
the evening of the 23d inst, just as he was trans
mtting his instructions to the Officer who relieved
him of his command in Fort Gregg, shell from
Fort Moutrie burst among his men, killing several
and so woundlng him in the side, that he soon
died. He was conscious to the last and apparently
resigned to his sad fate.
AS an officer Capt. WOODRUFF had an enviable
reputation; ever ready for duty, he was never
known TO murmur, or question the propriety of an
order however laborious or dangerous the duty it
demanded. Socially, he was man admired by
all who knew him, and in his friendship he was
honest and sincere. He has fallen in the midday
cf his manhood, and in the very fort from which
was fired the first rebel gun at Fort Sumter, the
vibrations of which so thrilled with energy the
great northern heart. He has fallen, but he fell in
the defence of principle deeply enshrined in
every oyal breast and for the unity and perpetuity
of country that shall gladly honor her gallant
dead.
Let the virtues of the deceased be emulated by
his bcreaved comrades who survive him, and by
