The destruction of the saltpeter works of the Confederate army was a constant aim of the Federal troops, and an expedition .for this purpose started out from Burlington late in February and destroyed the works at Franklin. The detachment guarding the supply train at Petersburg was severely handled on March 3d by a Confederate detachment from Moorefield. On the 10th a detachment of Mosby's men

elves and firmly entrenched inside of his works, could have driven them into the sea. Fortunately, their commander, Colonel Max Weber, was not at all disconcerted; and marching boldly forward, he took possession of Fort Clark, which the Confederatesin the fort which could be brought to bear upon the entrance of the pass. The Confederates had no intention of troubling Weber during the night. When day reappeared, the sea was calm; and the Federal fleet, bringing their broadsides to bear upon tan to bombard it. The guns of the fort were speedily silenced and the garrison obliged to take refuge in the casemates.

Being apprised by the columns of smoke which rose in the horizon that the propitious moment had arrived, Wool proposed to the President to undertake an expedition against Norfolk.

French was marching in three columns, the left formed by Max Weber's brigade, the centre by Morris' new recruits, the right by Kimball's brigade. Having reached the cross-road leading to Dunker Church, near which Green had just been repulsed, he made each of them wheel to the left in line of battle; and thus The first line advanced boldly; but while it was gaining ground the second was exposed to an enfilading fire, proceeding from the wood, which threw the inexperienced soldiers of Morris into confusion. Kimball proceeded past them and deployed on Weber's left. Richardson arrived immediately after French, and extended his line still more to the left with Meagher's Irish brigade, supported at a short distance by those of Caldwell and Brooks.
