Froxt Roan, July 1, 1862, The etirring events near the rebel capital fer tho past week bave wrally eclipsed those of minor Haportance ta tho Army of Virginia, whieh, in fact, has been confined to scouting, Feconnoitering and ehanges in the com- mand. ‘The ony @vent of importance ia the fleld was @ strong recompoits ince ef Luray, On Sunday morning General Crawford wes ordered by General Williams to reconpetre Larey in force.) ho town of Luray is twenty five miles south of Front Royal, and is near the west slope of the Blue Ridge. It has abont 700 inhabitants, For the past ten days it has been strictly gaarded by rebol pickets, who tufused overy person ingrems or egress at points five milos‘(rom ‘be town. Consequently lk was upkmown what fores, i’ any, was concentrated timre. Several effe ts were made by Generals Williams and Crawford to gain a view of the valley near Luray; but the vigilante and activity of the rebel cavalry prevented an approach noarer than Milford on the north, and Sperryvile on the east, A regiment of infantry took possession of Chester Gap, southeast of Front Royal, to provent an movemest on our tft, while thesesth brave of the Shenandoah protected our right. One regiment of infantry and a squadrouet cavalry advaaced in the stonepike in the vaiiey, while the mais dody, composed of cavalry, artillery and’ infantry, pro- cocded along the foot of the ridge, thromfh what is termed by tho inhabitants Goeney’s Manor, almost inaccessible tomnything but cavalry, The ecenery along the route was wildly picturesque, and’ elicited admira- tin from alin theranks. The soldiers almost forgot’ their fatigue while gazing upon the mountains, and, as if add greater -sablimity to the occasion, a thunder storm burst upeo us, with ite thousaad echoes from pinnacle, crag aud hill, It was one continuous roar, util the storm passed over us. We passed eeveral hamlets on the roate, whore the few inhabitants were almost a3 wild and untatored by civilization as the scevery uround them, Nothing of the least importance could be elicited from ther. Finding tne road more !mpracticable as tho command progressed, it took a road, or rather.apath, turning due west. long the foot of aspur of tho Blue Ridgs, aud, after @ journey of six miler;strikicg the pike near Mil- ford. ~ At this place resides the family-of Mr. John F. Haines, who was barbarously taken to Luray by the rebels. and shot in cold’ bleod for being @ Union man, ‘The entire command was consolidated and moved for- ‘ward several miles, and-bivouacked for the night under @ steady fall of rain. General Crawford, with the tact. ¢f a veteran com- mander, blocked up all known routes- ef communication with Luray,end established distant outposts and Jines of patrols. At daylight Monday morning the colemn was again in motion for Luray, then nine miles distant. When about tive miles from the town our vidottes came upen the enemys pickets, capturing one, while two others made their escape, all mounted. The prisoner was armed with a pair of old cavalry flint lock pistols and a homemade sword, nearly as elastic as strap tron. Here the infantry andartillery were halted, while the cavalry alone proceeded. Knowing that the refugee pickets would inform the enemy of our appronch, we pushed forward ss fast as pradence would permit. On reeching the apex of the hills north of the town the cavalry of the euemy were seen defilingjaco the New" market road westward. Gar videttes and advence guard entered the town with unslung carbines and great caution, fearing ¢he enemy’s Fear guard might be there in force. Every house was scrutinised, to Prevent, if zecessary, ‘& repetition of the unfriendly reception in Winchester. ‘The rear guard of the enemy wag finally disecvered on a hill in the edge of the town. Our earviniers gave then thea charged, sword in ha: Over the crest of this bill the enemy, at least one hun- dred strong, were drawn up to receive us, and gave our advance a volicy, checking for a moment the charge. ‘Thoir volley was respouded to, when the enemy.com. menced to retreat, followed by our cavalry, who made two captures. On the appearance of two flanking cem- panies, ordered up by Colonel Tompkins, of Fairfax Court House renown, now of the First Vermont cavalry, the enemy retreated in haste and disorder. One of the Vermont boys was shot through the head, and died an bour afterwards. Anether was slightly | wounded, and two horses were shot, one of which wa subsequently killed. The result on the side of theenemy is usknowa; bu traiis of blood indicated the direction of their retroat. ‘The object of the reconuoissance having beeu accom plished, and valuable information obtained, pursuit was atopped, and the command returned last night to camp the greater portion of which Lad performed @ march of sixty miles in two days, through mountain passes and over muddy roade. ‘The accidental discharge of a pistol on the raturn Jutly wouuded Lieatenant Colonel Pillebrown, of the Tenth Maine lafautry, in the leg.
