SEVEN DAYS IN CAPTIVITY. AMONG THE REBELS. What Was Seen and Heard by a Cor- respondent During that, Period. The Misfortunes of Cavalry, Correspondents of the Herald. Names of Union Officers Captured at Gettysburg Nowin the Hands of the Rebels, &o., Mr. W. Young’s Despatch. Hancock, Md., July 14, 1803. AN ORFTUARY SUGGESTED. It will bo recollected that one of the H®Ratp corres- q@ondents with the cavalry was captured at Boverly’s Ford, and that his successor was killed after the last Aldie fight. There being no well protected front or rear in cavalry expeditions, I was admonished on being transferred from the First army corps to Kilpatrick’s cavalry that there was danger impending, and that it would be woll to leave the manuscript in safe hands for an obituary, such as would afford adeceased individual’s friends pleasure to read. Want of time to do full “justice to the subject,” before taking the field of active opera- tions, was the only reason why the promised autobio- graphical obituary was not written. 4 DASH TOWARDS “MY MARYLAND,” Having written up the despatches relative to cavalry ‘Operations to the close of the three days’ fight at Gettys- ‘burg, your correspondent was on the march towards «My Maryland” with the dashing Kilpatrick, who left the front late on the morning of the giorious Fourth for the purpose of cutting off the trains of the retroating rebo's. ‘THE RAIN YELL IN TORRENTS—A FIGHT. . After being a half hour om tho road, Professor Espy’s ‘theory capnonading would produce rain was illus- Grated “by | deluge from the clouds, and it con- tinued (to rain at intervals till towards night, ‘when, reaching a very romantic valley within an ampbitheatre of hills, appropriately named Fountain Dale, from which two or three roads diverged, and on one leading to the extreme right were rebel cavalry videttes, the First Michigan cavalry was gent out ‘€o pick up afight and rout the enemy. The foe proved to be the Sixth Virginia cavalry, and notwithstanding ‘the subsequent declarations ef North Carolina rebel offi- ors that the Sixth always rum and never fought, they 444 make quite & stubborn resistance. 4 REBEL TRAIN DEMOLIBUED. ‘The rain began to fall again, the darkness of the night ‘ent a deeper gloom to'the forest roads, the echoes were ‘awakened by the sharp voiced carbine and the quick toned revolver, with the mingled rumblings of hoarse artillery, and a short distance beyond the Monterey ‘Springs Hotel Kilpatrick made bis anticipated dash upon Gen. Rhodes’ trainyguarded , according to rebel authority ‘by only twenty-ve men. Of course our gallant cavalry ‘hhad ital their own way, and the wagons which Kil- i &e &o. Patrick did not send to the rear were shortly converted | Aiuto a ‘wreck of matter,"” and to some unfortunate rebels | ‘there was a fearful ‘‘orash of worlds.” 4 HALT FOR SUFPER—A SURPRISE AND CAPTURE, ‘The too faithful colored servant orrespondent, quite appropriately named o- phas Quiet, had falion to @® rear, with bian- ‘kets, saddiebags and their. contents, and a halt for wupper—time two o'clock in the morning—at the Monterey Pprings Hotel. Avother halt farther on to feed the weary and hangry horses that had eaten nothing since the pre- ‘vious morning, brought us so far to the rear that,ewith “pickets thrown out, the presumptuous rebels made a-dash Soto our lines, resulting in the capture of an unarmed and spnoffenstve Henatp writer of cavairy history. GFTRODUCING ONR’S SELF TO A UNITED STATES EX-SENATOR'S BON. Being taken to the winning presence of the officer in command of the rebel forces, -which preved to be a brigade of North Carolina troops, under General Iverson, son of United States Ex Senator Iverson, of Georgia, the full flasks in the once before mentionea paddle bags refreshed and enlivened generals, colonels, majors, captains, Neutenants and correspondents, the latter renewing his assurances, with the hope that tbe. febels would be successful every whore, execpt on he ocean, on the field and in their confederacy. PLRASAPT ACQUAINTANCESUIPS FORMED. ‘The personal liberty of your fortunately unfertunate correspondent was entrusted to the joint custody of Colonel Carter, Major Wharton (a law student with John A. Gilmer) and @ lieutenant of the First North ‘Carolina battaiien; and all these gentiemen manifested a courtesy, which ultimately resulted in a release from the surveillance of a guard, with the express understanding @hat no advantage te escape should be taken of their eniency. NATURAL DESIRE FOR INFORMATION. A late paper was inquired for, and to the stock of rebel fiteratare or news was added a three or four daye’ old copy of a Philadelphia paper, the proclivities of which do not indicate (riendsbip for the abolitionists. FRLIOW PRIOWERS—A STAFF OFFICER. ‘The only officers among my fellow prisoners at this time was Capt. Hubbell (Seventeenth Connecticut), of General Barlow's staff, who was captured at Gettysburg on the first day’s fight. There were a few privates, ehicf Jy from cavalry commands, Capt. Hubbell bad faith and wator for breakfast, after marching all night long in-the ain; and we should have iad the same for dinner but for ‘the kindness of Capt. McIntyre, a generous North Careli- ian, who divided bis hard tack and coffee, and the ‘thoughtfulness of one.of the guard, who converted a small them remarked, ‘‘The Yankees are learning to fight the devii—they @boot low.” Another replied, “Yea; they fight like hell.” Thte was a tribute which they @eemed to be compelled to yield, though afterwards I as- certained from their conversation that the North Caro. Jina privates have strong Union prociivities, and wish themselves safely out of the army and into the Union as 0 was. SENTIMENTS OF THY OFriCERS. The sentiments of the officers were, on the contrary, unflinchingly and unyieldingly opposed to 8 restoration of the Union, and they instet that the South never can bo @onquered. All these North Caroline officers with whom 3 conversed and associated were original Union men, ‘who entered at first reluctantly into the centest, but who express a dotormioatinn never to submit so Jong as they an resist the Union authority, anda belief that the Union can never be restored. ANOTHER MARGI—ON THE SICK LIMT—AMECLANO® KiDEO— MORE MOUTING. Another march, but, being on the sick list, Major Whar. toe offered mo a seat in tho rear ambulance, and the head Of the column fought ite way through our cavalry to a point sear Hagerstown, where wo again eacamped. Tho kind-hearted Major Wharton, desiring to render ome respect to the Heratn, offered its involuntary repre. sentative a seat at his moss table and a sleeping place in Dis wall tent, His cook was thoroughly proficient in the high art of preparing (904, and not only baked superior four bread, but presented the best plate of fried mutton that waa over eaten in Gamp. Where the flour came from, or from whom the mutton wae ebtained, | did not ask, having previously been told hat Kilpatrick captured ‘ains on tho Maryland side of the river, and of your m from the wt) ee | r (ob, ° —— ad “(pe you 4 crmzen!”” Fa This q”estion was asked one morning by tn unwashed, ued’ cated and uncouth specimen of Norta Carolina back- W ademan , who seeing your correspondent ma light color- ed bat, blue flannel coat, trimmed with braid and covered buttons, gray pants and cavalry boots, seemed to be 10 doubt whether ho wag addressing a Yankeo officer or not, Irepited to his impertineat interrogatory, “Yes,” but the fellow, still unsatisfied, rejoined, ‘I don’t believe it, you leok like a militia,”’? The ‘tar heeler,”’ as the Vir- iniang would call him, was sternly reminded that I did not come there to be insulted, and did not propose to be by him, and the guard was informed of bis duty to report suom incivilities to his officer, accession ov rmisoxxns, © We had on the road ap accession of prisoners, among them several cavalry officers, two chaplains and two fanitary commission agents, acting for benevolent citizens of Massachusetts, who were captured by Stuart's cavalry, and their sanitary supples and horses sent to his rear. ADVANCING UNDER DIFFICULTIES. Longstreet’s and Hill’s cemmands, with a part of Ewell’s corps, bad got between Hagerstown and Williams- port; but our cavalry in the front, and our pursuing forces fm the rear of us, had not only compelled the rebel cavalry and artillery to clear the way for an advance, but rendered it an absolute necessity for tber infantry to again attempt a bold stand, and they were accordingly marched back again a greater distance from the Potomac. Both Longstteet and Hill were pointed out to us as they went marching along. PONTOONS DESTROYED—UP A SPOUT. One morning we were awakened to the reality—pain- fal to the rebels—that their pontoons had been burned by the Yankee cavalry. One of their officers impulsively remarked, ‘‘If that is 0, then we are gone up a spout!” PROSPECTS OF 4 RELEASE. Colonel Carter, being a perfect gentleman and a good Judge of the fitness of things, observed to me one day that being only a citizen I ought to be released, and suggested voluntarily that he should make @ recommendation of that purport to Geueral Lee, But the embarrasements caused by the destruction of the pontoons, and the expected attack by the Yankees in force, undoubtedly prevented him from communicating his wise purpose, OVER THR RIVER, One afternoon, when some two hundred of us were prisoners in the hands of the First North Carolina battal- fon, I aided Major Wharton’s subordinates in taking a full list of the names, which ingjuded those of but a few off. cers, and was promised that a copy should be made for the especial benefit of the Hzratp pext morning. Early in the morning, however, the Major suggested that his prisoners would be transferred at once to General Pickett; and that it would be more pleasant togoover the river from Williamsport and join a large number of Union officers there than to go to the rear with the privates. A FLAT BOAT TO CROSS IN, It was the morning following a night of heavy raio, and when we reached the banks of the river the waters were swollen to the depth ef eight or ten fect, ana the current was quite rapid. A warp was stretehed across the river, from bank to bank, and made fast at each end. The crossing for our few prisoners and the horses of wounded rebels was in a single fMatboat, leaky and unsafe, ® bawser from her bows slipping along the warp across the river, and ‘the propelling power deing poles such as Abo Lincoln ‘Qover csed if he was a good flatboatman. There were three ‘or four other flat and pontoon boatson the Willi msport side of tho river, the management of which they did not appear to dare*undertake. We crossed in safety, your ‘correspondent alope having breakfested (at the hospitable table of the major), the captured officers and chaplains having no rations issued to them, because the supplies were on the Virginia side of the river. MEETING OLD ACQUAINTANCES, ‘The ever cheerful faces of lets of First corps officers greeted me on joining the prisoners who bad preceded us on the route to Dixie, and the pleasure of mesting—even under the peculiar circt controlling us alli—com- peneated for some of the ills of a prisoner's life. MAJOR PRYTON—DINNER, SUPPER AND A RROONNOIBANCE. Our guard was General Garvett’s Virginia brigade, con- sisting of ‘the Eighth, Eighteenth, Nineteeoth, Twenty- eighth and Fifty-sixth Virginia infaotry, under the command of Major Peyton, of Albemarle county, of the Nineteenith Virginia, who lost an arm at the second Bull run, General Garnett—cousin of the General Garnott who fell im one of the earliest battios—was killed at Gettysburg, and there is no officer f the brigade higher than a major. But to the dinner and supper. Those who happened @ have rations left over—and some of the First and Eleventh corps oMicers had a surplus—divided with those who had none;-and so @ three o’clcek dinner was sumpteously setved out, averaging about two ounces of bread to each man. Looking like a citizen, and not being known by the guard, J sauntered out in the afternoon, enjoyed hours of re. flection umder the shado of a wide.spreading apple tree, and when’ nigt&t had thrown its mantle of darkness on all around, mate a reconnaissance in force to find an egreaa between the pickets. But the pickets were too numerous and vigilant, and besides a coveted and much desired: list of the captured officers had not been obtained, and so escape fram the rebels was temporarily abandoned. Every man that could be pushed over to the Maryland sido of the Potemac appeared to be sent, and there was a thumping and pounding on the river banks as though the rebels were endeav- oring to consteact a bridge for crossing. There were vo supply wagene on the south side of the river, and, of course, no ratieas for supper. MORNING SALE TATIONS. Contributing « rubber poncho and a woollen blanket to the common stoes, 1 was fortunate enough to eccupy a sheltor tent with Colonel Tilden, Captain Atwood and another officer of the Sixteenth Maine; but quite early there were morning-salutations, such as ‘Fall in for your rations,” “What aro you going to draw—water rations’ “ Guard, fail ia.tbere. General Starvation has come !”’ “Does he rink Lee 1”’ “ How would you kike some of Joo Hooker's pies ?”’ ‘These and similar salutations, with complimentary allu- sions to the Hxna.n for ite enterprise in sending @ corres. pondent along with them, cendered sicep impossible, avd we all broakfasted on faith--which is @ mighty poor sub stitute for bread, as the.crevings of the stomach before ten 6'clock forced all. of us to.confess—aad water. 1ESUE OF RATIONS. About ten o'clock we were rejoiced at the announce: ment that rations wore to be issued, but were disap. pointed when only sixty pounds of flour wes brought in fer two hundred and sixty.seven men. It were hoped that there was some mistake about it, but that was certainly @'l the four that had been sentaver from Maryland for us. We had an of fresh beef, however—about half a pound toeach man. A commissary was selected, the flour and beef issued to the corpe, and then again divided among the messes. ANYANKER SP ECULAniow, A Virginia white boy came into the camp to fell dobac co, for which he charged one dollar a plug. Col. Tilden and one of bis captains wanted two plugs, and offered two dollar greepbacks for them. But Virginia didn't take that kind ef momey, and wanted Confederate paper, it ‘0 happened that the correspondent's knife had been sold for a two dollar Confederate note, and he got the green back and ‘Virginia’ the Confederate curreney, so that the sale of the fifty cent koife proved a good Yankeo speculation. Negroes who sell bread and fruit to the prisoners aro too shrewd to take anything other than Union money. A MARCH TILL MIDNIGHT, After five o'clock in the afternoos, the column of three thousand captured Union privates approached the bank of the river, awaiting (ransportation across it. Our bread baving been baked and bef cooked and eaten, we got the orders to pack up and started ob a march. The base of supplies for the rebels having been stated to be Staunton, one hundred and forty miles distant, we expected cond. dently to meet some supply trains. Bit this expectation was almost an illusion. We met afew returning ambulances, but no wagons with supplies, A long and fatiguing march, across unbridged streams, en the Staunton road, terminated at midnight in ® beautiful and clean apple orchard, two miles beyond Martinsburg. On the rdute the citizens, particularly the ladies, |Iluminated them selves with tallow candies, to enable them to gaze upon us Yankees as wo were marching slong io the glogm of the night. MRAVY DEW—NO ENTTER—erRLY OFFICERS. A heavy dew had gaturated the long grass in tbe orebard; we had bo supper, abd no prospect of any; the officers of the guard were surly and churlieh, and it became a duty to remind them that they had charge of genviemen, who were accustomed wo being treated as gentiemen, and would insist upon that treatment theo, or the dismounted officers would be reported to their better bred superiors. Spreading ovr blanketa—those who had them—on the grass, we #lept until there waa an ear for the chief emnmissary to receive call ree jeytal Vidings!) and an a commineary was caued by NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1863. mame all over the camp; but be did not respond, for the good and sufficient reason, as it was afterwards learned, that there was then a considerable distance between bim and bis late guards. ANOTHER MARCH—A SULTRY DAY. Anew commissary was selected, the day’s rations is- Sued, cooked and breakfast eaten, nnd we again started On the march, meeting three or four wagons, with about ten barrels of tour, and a few ambulances ‘The day wes very sultry. Those of us who wore heavy cavalry boots, and carried a part of our personal baggagey were foot sore and weary, and to the Southern con- federacy was dealt out imprecations, mingled with some oaths, PASSING BUNKER IIL1—WASHINGTON SPRINGS. We paseed Bunker Hill, not the eminence of Revolu- tionary renown, but the level locality which has aname in the history of the present ‘‘unboly war,”” or “infernal rebeliion,”” whichever pious people call it, and proceeded to Washington Springs, some six miles this sido of Winchester, and a mile from the main road, aud where wo encamped for the night, during the succeeding day (Saturday), and certainly until Sun- day morning, at which time Islid out. The ladies and Qther citizens on the road gazed at and probably admired the column of Yankees, as they appeared to be quite joyful, There are mavy good Union people thereabouts, MORE RATIONE—GOOD WATER. ‘Tho night of our arrivalthere was another issue of rations like that of the day previous, and the water of Washington Springs was found to be pure and cool. THE FALL OF VICKSBURG. It was while encamped here on Saturday, awaiting the arrival of the 3,000 captured privates, who, togethor with the officers, were to be transferred to Imboden’s cavalry, to be marched and conveyed to Richmond, either by Staunton or Culpepper, that the Richmond papers of ‘Vhursday were received, admitting the fal! of Vicksburg. ‘This glorious tidings was read by ao officer of the Twengy- fourth Michigan regiment, and if it bad been prudent or appropriate, there would bave been an unmistakable ox- pression of joy at the intelligence. SENTIMENTS OF THE REBEL, SOLDIERS. No one except a rebel officer or rebel citizen can mingle a weck with the soldiers of the rebel army and in it without being forced to the conviction that the mass of them are good Union men, anxious for peace and a restoration of the Union—impatient under tho tyranny which subjects them to the hardships of a sol- dier’s life, and that they rejoice at the victories of the Union armies. Several of our officers had insisted that the rebels guarding us were nearly ali Union men, and were severe in their denunciations of the rebel military authorities, In conversing with these privates the im- pression of our officers was found to be correct. REJOICING AT UNION VICTORIES. One of the rebel privates, after relating that he was conreripted and descanting upon the bardsbips be and others had endured, for nothing but to gratify the evil passions of certatm leaders, observed, ‘*] wish you all would whip us pretty soon, if you are going to do it!” Being then told that Vicksburg bad certainly surrendered toGrant, ho laughed with joy at that result, declaring that he saw ie it a hope of the conquest of the South and a return to peace. MICK OF THR WAR. It is almost universal for the privates to remark that they are sick and tired of the war; but one of them gave expreesion to his iceas so quaintly that his tanguage will Doar repeating. Asking one of our offoers if we dian’t have bacon rations sometimes, he said:—! am sicker of fresh beef than I am of the war, and Jam so sick of the war tbat I can hardly see stfaight!” This was certainly expressive, Pages might bo written relating what the privates in the Southern army say touching their disgust of the war, the military rulers and the confederacy, «* RUNBTNG THE BLOCK.'” “ Runping the block”? means #kedaddling from the army to their homes. It has become'so frequent that the Privates say their officers cannot prevent and do not dare to punish it. One soldier told me that in his regiment there were only fourteen privates left, all the rest having ‘‘rup'the block,” to return when'they get ready, This doesnot agree with the general ideas of discipline in the Fouthero army; but there can ‘be no doubt that since Lee commenced his invasion of Pennsylvania desertions have become frequent, and to sueb an extcnt tbat there is absolutely no remedy. 4 SMALL BRIOADR. Major Peyton’s brigade—guardiag us—certainly cou'd not number moro than three hendred men, and it has eitmer been cut to pieces in ‘battle, or the men bavo Jefe in dingust. REAEL LOSHMB AT GRTTYRRURG—LER'S DISAMTROUS CAMPAIGN. ‘The most cautious of the rebel officers estimated their entire losses at Gettysburg at 4wenty thousand, and others as high as thirty thousand. There was a gevoral fectiag, among both officers and men, that Lee's last a paign has been most damaging and disastrous to him, and ‘nat the offensive policy was an errencous one. SHORT SUPPLIES. ‘The subsistence of Lee’s army must have been short, as Uittie er no supplies or ammenition'¢ llowed bim, and his purpose—if he had any such—to subsist on the country, ‘was not successful, Thetr suppliese# ore extremely short, ‘and cach day they were beouming senutifully ers, “THE MEN DEMORALIZAD—STRENGTD OF LER'® ARMY. The men in Lee's grand army net only appeared to be utterly dispirited and dishoartened,; bit they were in such condition that they could berdly wait to stack arme be fore they were stripped to the skimend etgaged in the Inudabie occupation of manipulating eertain little creeping inseots-that stick to an upwasbed-evidier like death wo a sick wigger. From ali that could be gathered, tbeeorms quite evident that Leo kad only but between 70,000cnd 80,000 men in Masyland, and pone near him for reinser cements. 4 mG ecanR, The rebels were apparently im great trepidation, and manile-ted considerable anxiety to get the opinions of some of their prisoners as to Meade's ability to puth Lee tothe wall, They confessed that they were alarmed at one time, and it is doubtful whether they got over their fright before they croased the Potomac to the thores of old Virginia. ‘A STOVE FIVE NAT—ONRERITE Ornerne. One of our officers had a shocking bad but, which he exchanged for one of a stove-pipe pattern, apd antiquated at that, Otber officers joked him and hai «port cut of the hat They are generally very cheerful; (but the jong march, goor shoes and short ratios, im prospect and Present, did not add to their joy.

But twas done honorably in broaa deylight, though the walk tbrough{a doubtful country, in forest, and field, and by roads, oever halting when the rain poured down, occasionally dodging into the wooda to avoid rebel scouts, to ® peint on the Potomac river, opposite Hancock, Mé.,was accomplished in two anda balf days from Washington Springs, to communicate o the Henatp « list of our officers on their way to Rich mond, with « budget of in’crmatéon which our involua- tary sojourn among the rebels foroed me to noquire, war not #0 pleasant as a walk up Broadway in the most pro pitious season of the year. CVUANRERFST RO CITUCERE, Among the prisoners whom the rebels are Richmond are sine citizeos of Chembersburg, Penoey! vania, who were going towards Hagerstown to see the fight which they expected would come off there. Their curiosity led them into trouble. Five of them bave been volunteers in the nine mont bs service. TUR REBELLION 4 OHELL. Tt i manifest that the rebellion is but a mere shell, and im mercy to the privates io the rebel army it le also to them apparent thet it ts the duty of the united North to throw every available man into the field at once, and crush that shell, Rebel officers admit that they are growing weaker in men after every fight.

Our ex ports increased from $162,430,745 to $298,815 ,141; our imports from $143,960,047 to $140,900,020, The export of specie was large, very large, con- sidering that for some time past most of the gold sent out of the country has gone direct from San Francisco. These tables will form au appropriate topic for comment hereafter. Money is extremely easy. The arrival of troops in reassuring banks and capitalists, aud they are offering money on call at5 per cent. Good mer- cantile paper sells at 5 a 6 per cent. Gold fell agnin to-day on the war news, which is generally regarded a* decivive against the rebel lion, It finetuated between 126 and 127 in the morning, sold at 125 between the boards and at 126 in the afternoon, clowing about 126%. Exchange was very duil at 187% « 1344. People who thought it was time ww take advantage of the fall in ten days since, and bought at 144 and 150, are gow holding back im the hope of a further decline. If we can take and bold possession of the tributaries of the Misia sippi, a great deal of cotton will come to market. The stock market was very strong this morning, without eapecial activity, The pablic do not seem to be operating; but the large earnings of moat of the roads, amd the stremyth of a few leading opera tora in the street, lead to « pretty general advance in prices. The great rise of the day was ln Pacide Mail, which, after closing yew terday at 223, wold this morning at 250, In the afternoun it was done at 241. Nothing ie known of the cause of this prodigious advance, though a stock dividend is taggested in some quarters.

Last year the road was ran for 58 percent of the gross receipts, or $336,000 a month, This year, on other roads, the large increase of gross receipts has caused a reduction in the per centage of ex- penses., It is believed that Mr. Marsh’s adminis- tration has not been less economical than that of other corresponding lines. If, however, the ex- penses of the Erie should prove not to have fallen off, but to have increased to 60 per cent, the in come account to be laid before the board to-mor- row will be as follow#— Grona receipur Operalivg expens Six mouths interest, re Dividend $4¢ on preferred jg ana Palanee to credit of dividend fund. . or, inother words, 8% per cent on the whgle com- mon stock earned in six months. It is possible, however, that no dividend may be declared to- morrow, bat that the subject may be referred to a committee of the board for their consideration and report, ‘The business of the Bub-Treasary was as follows to-day:— Keonipt > $1,171,764 20 —For custome a 5,000 00 Payments, ne 938,193. 0 Balance t Be,649,bs4 00 The exchanges at the Bank Clearing House to-day were $32,203,183 14, and the balances $1,908,227 01.
