ADDRESS OF THE HON. GEORGE H. PENDLETON— RE- MARKS OF MESSRS. VALLANDIGHAM AND KNAPP.

Groner H. Puspiztoy, of Ohio, He commenced by asking if it was true that we had reached the period of discushion; for if it was, the work of peace, reconstruc- lion and reconciliation would be speedily hastonéd. Tho constitution of the United States guaranteed the right of free speech to every citizen, aud he was glad to see that Governor Seymour laid down that doctrine in his late message. He took it for granted that they revered the federal Union, and that they cherished the memory of the illustrious mon of their own State; but he hoped that thoy would be alive to interest at the same time. He would not proclaim his devotion to the consti- tution—copperhead, as he was called—peace democrat, as he was; for hoe defied any ono to point to a single vote which would warrant any such charge, Neither would he abuse the Southern confederacy and the South: erm people. It was certain that the Southern com- federacy, for the last two years, had been proof against ten thousand preachers of the Gospel and presses throughout the country, except the occasional whisperings of Grecley’s biack brigade when he said:— ecg re coming, father Abraham, pine hundred thousand There was no question connected with the ad. ration that was woo delicate to be discussed.

THE UNION CAVALRY IN PURSUIT, hoy &o., &e, ‘Wasurxcron, March 9, 1863, Information has been received that the rebel Captain Moseley, with bis command, stcalthily entered Fairfax Court House this morning at two o'clock. They captured Provost Marshal Oscanner’s patrols, horses, &c., together with Gen. Stoughton and all the men detached from his brigade. ‘They also took every horse which could be found, pudtic and private. ‘The commanding officer of the post, Col. Johnson, of the Fifth New York cavalry, made his escape. The reGcla searched for men in every direction. All our available cavalry force were at Jast accounts in pursuit of the rebels. The onemy appeared suddenly during a rain storm. General Stoughton had established his headquarters ut some distance from his brigade, The rebels capturea one hundred and ten horses, They went in search of General Wyndham, but that gentleman happened to be in Wash. ington. They, however, searched his trunk and took bis papers. A telegraph operator, it 1s said, was taken prisoner by the rebels, Wasuxaton, March 9—P. M.

Having obtained pos- Session of the countersign from the captured order books at headquarters, they used it on their arrival at Ceatre- ville to pass the outposts, and went to the right. An orderly who had been taken cecaped during the morning, and arrived at Fairfax Court House at two P. M. He reported the enemy rapidly retreating, and our cavalry in such close pursuit that the rebela had left be. hind them thirty of the captured ‘prisoners, and were running for life. ¥ At the moment of this raid Colonel Wyndham was in Washington under arrest, for causes heretofore stated. It was hia custom while commanding that post to keep patrols between tho pickets, which would have prevented this raid upon the headquarters of a brigadier general, A few days ago Colonel Wyndham was temporarily re- leased from arrest, to take cemmand of an important cavalry expedition, with orders to report himself egain under arrest when the duty had been performed. To- day he was unconditionally released, and directed to resume the command of the cavalry forces at that point. Sketch of Acting General Stoughton. Colonel and Acting Brigadier General Edwin H. Stough ton, captured at Fairfax Court House, is a native of Vor mont, bis father residing at the present time, we believe, at Bellows Fails, He entered the Military Academy at ‘West Point as a cadet in the year 1854, and graduated on the 30th of June, 1859. In his class was the rebel Geperal Joe Wheeler, and other officers of both services. On the 1st of July, 1859, he wae brevosied Hooout Cseutenant of the Fourth United States infantry, and on the 5th of Sep- tomber following wes transferred to the Sixth infantry, with full rank of @econd lieutenant. On the 4th of March, 1061, he resigned bis commission im the regular army. When the rebellion broke out he took an active part in tho organization of volunteers, and-en the 20th of September, 1861, bis regiment—the Fourth regiment of Vermont Volunteers—was mustered into service, he being the Colonel. The regiment prooeeded to Washington and formed past of the Vermont brigade. When General McClelian’s forces went to the peninsula this brigade was one of the first to become engaged, and on the 16th of April, 196%, fought the battle of Lee's Mills, on the Warwick river. During the mvestigation caused by the resylt of this contest the General (Brooks) was called to Washing- ton, when Colonel Stoughton was placed in command of the brigade, which be is reported to bave handled with tkill. He was next engaged at Williamsburg, on May 5, 1862, and also in the battles of June 27, 28 and 29, 1862, before Richmond. He participated in the fighting under Pope during the last few days of August, and also at An Vietam, September 17, 1862. He was then detached from ‘that army to (ake charge of the Second Vermont brigade, which he is said to have handled with credit, although not yet brought into general engagement. On the 23d of December, 1862, he was nominated for a brigadier gene. ral, with a commission dating from November 5, 1862. This nomination was returned, with others, for revision, and on the 7th of the present month yras again sent into the Senate for confirmation, He is the brother of Major Charles B.
