The army headquarters were at Falmouth,
village on the left bank of the Rappahan-
mock, opposite fredericksburg. All the win.
ter Hooker had been planning his campaign.
The plan sounded we'll Gen George Stone
man, with 600 cavalry, was to start two
weeks in advance Of the main movement,
cross the river above Lees fortification, at
the upper fords of the Rappahannock.
Hooker expected great things from this
cavalry movement, which is known in the
war history as Stonenan's Raid The object
OF the commanding general of the Army of
the Potomac was at last what it should have
been from the first, the capture, not of Rich
mond, but of Lees army. For this purpose
Stonenan, with his cavalry, was to make a
descent upon Lees communications with
Richmond, destroy railroads and telegraphs
and cut off the Confederate army supplies.
To effectually do this the cavalry was sepa-
rated into two columns, one under Averell,
the other under Buford They were to work
at different points, and then, after their task
was accomplished, come together again in
the rear of Lees army. Cutting off his sup
plies would necessarily cause Lee to give up
Fredericksburg and fall back toward Rich
mond There Stoneman's cavalry was to in
tercept him, worry him and detain him,
giving Hooker a chance to getsin his work
with the main Union army. Hooker charged
Stonenlan as follows.

Mr.. Cleveland's letter of acceptance
| which has been written, and which
will probably be made public this week,
is said, by a gentleman who has been
fortunate enough to have read it, to be
one of the ablest State papers yet pre-
pared by him.
The Chicago convention leaves the
Republican party in a terrible condi-
tion. The jeal0usies are much worse
than they were in 1880.
Poor John Sherman ever IA
ted to get left.
Mr.. BENZ. P. Fairchild, of New York
City, father-in-law of Representative
Schumacher, was in this city day or
two ago. Speaking of the political out
look in New York he said my mark
is one hundred thousand majority in the
State for Cleveland. People may think
that is wild, but | have been actively
engaged in the politics of the State for
more than half century, and | believe
can come as near as any man to tell
ing how an election will go. am will
ing to risk any amount up to fifty thou
sand dollars on my judgment. The
people of New York are pleased will,
the ticket and with the platform, and
they will vote the ticket like sheep fol-
will nominate David b. Hill, TIE most
popular Democrat now in the State,
and we will elect him with a rush. too"
With the exception of large majority,
Mr.. Fairchild's opinion is a fair sample
of those daily expressed here by visit
idg New Workers.
A committee from Tammany Hall
was in the city day or two ago for the
purpose of securing prominent speak
ers for the ratification jubilee which
the society proposes to hold on July 4.
The following gentlemen have accepted
invitations to attend and make speeches.
Senator Vest and Representatives Mills,
ColIine, Ford, (of Michigan), Washing
ton, Hooker, Grain. McAdoo, Wise,
Shively, Bynum, McCrary, and Speaker
Carlisle.
Washington Democrats will send
very large crowd to Baltimore July 4.
to attend the national convention of
clubs. A large number of Congress
men will attend.
Representative Fitch. of New York,
who was elected as Il Republican, but
who has left that party on account of
the tariff, and joined the Democratic
narty, gavea hanqeut to Representatives
Price, Spinola, Townshend, and Ford,
the lammany C0minlttce, On thursday
evening. MIR. Fitch made a few re-
marks explaining why he bad left the
Republican and joined the Democratic
party. The other gentlemen gave him
hearty welcome to the party.
Since the fact was published that
Representative Timothy Campbell. of
New York, had made bet of $4,000
that Cleveland and Thurman would car
ry New York. that gentleman has been
overwhelmed with requests by lele-
graph and mail TO get some more bets
of that sort. for his constituents, all of

HookER's INITIAL MOVEMENT.

Hookers camp was in plain sight OF Lee,
who lay on the heights of Fredericksburg,
opposite 1t would be necessary to move
with the utmost caution, therefore, in order
to mislcad him. One division of the Army
of the Potomac (Couchs) was therefore left
in camp at Falmouth Three corps were sent
down the river twenty miles below Fred
ericksburg under Gen. Sedgwick to make a
feint Of crossing there. This would draw the
Confederate army in increased numbers
thither and conceal the main crossing, which
was made twenty seven miles above Fred
ericksburg at Kelly's Ford. Four corps under
Gen Slocum went up the river to Kelly's
Ford.
BY referring to the map the reader will
notice where the Rapidan river empties into
the Rappahannock. The first named river is
variously called the Rapidan, the Rapid
Anna and the Rapid Ann. Kelly's Ford was
above the mouth of the Rapidan So that in
order to reach Lees army the Union force
was obliged to cross two cold, swollen rivers
first the Rappahannock, then the Rapidan.
They crossed the fist by pontoon bridges.
The latter they forded, the men wading
breast deep in the water.
Hooker's army passed the Rapidan by two
fords The Fifth corps crossed at Ely's ford,
and the Eleventh and Twelfth corps at Ger
mania ford, ten miles above; once across, the
army, except Stonelnans cavalry, set out for
Charlottesville. BY the evening Of April
80, four corps OF Gen. Hooker were at Chan
cellorsville, and ready for fight.
HOoker>s chief engineer was Gen Gouyar-
