The IaIe Movement Of KiIpuIrick *.

The late Movement Of kiiputTick *.
from the Washington Correspondence Of th 0
Chicago Times
1t is reported to-day that the re.
cent expedition toward Richmond
under Fitzpatrick, Cuslar, and But,
Ter, has met with disastrous repulse
some distance from the rebel capital
You have previously been made &C.
onainted with the details and object
0fthis movement. 1t is scarcely less
ridiculous and absurd than Buffers
silly raid toward Richmond of two
or three weeks ago. In the present
case, the plan was for three different
armies to co operate; or, rather, the
: main body Of Meade's army was as
signed the task OF engaging the atten.
| ton of General Lees army on the
Rapidau; the forces under Butler
were to advance in two detachments,
one up the south side OF the James
River, the other up the Peninsula, IN
the route ot McClellan's army, by
the way of Williamsburg, White
House, and Bottoms Bridge; while
the cavalry Of the Army Of tho Po-
ton ac, uuper Fitzpatrick, were to dash
doHn to White House by way oi
fredericksburg and Hanover juno
tian, and TO meet and cooperate with
Buffers forces at White House. -
That part Of the programme intruSt-
ed to Ki patrick and General Meade
was successfully executed up to a
certain point: that is, the part OF
General Lees army that WAS on the
Rapidan when the movement COM
menced remained there, and were
engaged by the now depleted Army
of tie Potomac. KiIpatrick'a caval-
ry crossed the Rappahannock and
! the Rapidan, turned the Confederate
W orks on Mine Run, and advanced tC
White House by way of Hanover and
Spottsylvania. At this point the
success OF the movement and itt
failure began. That part Of tho pro
pramme intfusted to Butler was mol
carried out at all. The facts have
been concealed up to tlis time. Blu
enough is known to make it eviden
that, owing to the want Of co-opera-
tion OIL tho part Of Butler, our force
have suffered u disastrous repulse
somewhere between White uJus
and Bottem's Bridge.
Nothing else was to be expected
from an expedition organized on sucl
! absurd principles, or, rather, upoI
such total disregard Of all miltar
> principles. The object Of the expe
dition was avowed and boasted to b
! the capture of Richmcnd and the lib
!, Grafton Of the Union prisoners there
whom Butler can not get exchanged
But in tue organization Of the expe
dition, the most notorious facts i

! and treated as it they did not exist
