terrific that they halted, broke, and retired in great confusion, seeking shelter in a ravine about one hundred yards distant. Here a large portion of a Yankee brigade, being exposed to an enfilading artillery fire from our guns, surrendered to the 64th Georgia regiment, Capt. Pritchard commanding. The prisoners, who number over four hundred belonged to the 4th brigade, 1st division, Hancock's 2d army corps. They say, they were fearfully cut up, losing a great many officers and men Gen. Barlow, of New York city, commanding division, was borne from the field, and supposed to be mortally wounded. Major Springstead, of Albany, a popular officer, was instantly killed. They further state that Burnside's and Hancock's corps are operating immediately around Petersburg, and that Baldy Smith is at Bermuda Hundred. None of the officers captured were of higher rank than Lieutenant Colonel. Prisoners were constantly arriving at Petersburg in squads up to a late hour Thursday night, and

The enemy, quickly bringing up fresh troops, hurled them against our columns not less than four time, bach time, however, the enemy were repulsed with immense loss. The lasted until some time after nightfall. It has not been resumed this morning, and all is now quiet. Our captures of prisoners will foot up about sixteen hundred, including sixty commissioned officers, among them two Colonels and three aids to Gen. Barlow. It was also our good fortune to take and bring on the field about 3 inch rifle guns. These guns are sold to bravery fine pieces, and will be given by Major Gen. Mahone to Col. McIntosh's battalion, whose artillery assisted in this brilliant exploit. When I rode over the field last night I was told by the parties gathering small arms that they had picked up at that time some six or seven hundred, and would probably get about one thousand. Several stands of splendid colors also graced

corn-field over a hill and down into a ravine, where they came to a swamp, with a stream on the other side, and the ground covered with impenetrable brush on the margin. During all this time they were exposed to a heavy fire from the rebel artillery, which did a good deal of damage. As it has proved impossible to cross the ravine, the men were halted, and lay concealed as well as possible until dark, when they were withdrawn. Colonel Mase had his horse shot under him, and mounting General Barlow's horse, the animal became unmanageable, and finally falling on the Colonel, badly bruised him. The Colonel was wounded in the Wilderness battle, and had returned to the field only a day or so before. The division lost three hundred men in this engagement. The First and Third divisions, which were in support, lost about two hundred and fifty in killed and wounded from the effects of the rebel artillery. The wounded were all brought off, and are nearly all being cared for at Cit

"During all this time they were exposed to a heavy fire from the rebel artillery, which did a great deal of damage. It was found impossible to cross the ravine, and the men were halted and lay concealed as well as possible until dark, when they were withdrawn.

filiations. He proposes to run on the War Democratic platform, and will be bitterly opposed by the ultra "Copperheads, " or "Peace-at-any-price" faction. General McClellan has received much injury among the older and abler politicians from the efforts made by certain of his less discreet friends to thrust him down the throat of the Convention, will they or nill they. This has been done by a "Mutual Admiration Association," of which the Ketchum family appear to be chief bottle washers--Messrs. Barlow, Marble, Belmont, and the other acknowledged friends of "Little Mac," repudiating all the outside efforts in this direction, and General McClellan himself, it is said, disapproving all such extra zealous advocacy. Governor Horatio Seymour is the next on the list, and will appear as the special champion of the Central and Western States against the alleged dictation of the New England Puritans. He is also to be provided with a second string to his how, as "grand resister of the draf

ss, and as he did those he entertained — not forgetting old scores of differences; and as I left his office he gave me, in pretty emphatic rackle Scotch accent, his last words, which were for the President: "Tell them to restore McClellan to the army, and he will carry the election by default." I called on Mr. Greeley. My interview with him satisfied me that his best efforts would not be wanting to secure the peace of the country through the re-election of the President. Through Mr. Barlow, the intimate, personal and political friend of General McClellan, (who was not in the city,) I let the General know that I would be gratified by an opportunity of conversing with . He came to town and visited me in my lodging at the Astor House. I had an hour's conversation with him, which I prefaced by telling him the motives which had brought me to New York, as I have stated them above, and by stating distinctly to him that I did not come from Mr. Lincoln; had no authority, or even con

the failure on the south side, the correspondent says: By far the largest proportion of the losses fell to the lot of the Second corps. General Hancock succeeded in reforming his line by the time he had got abreast of Warren's left, and the rebels withdrawing, there the matter ended for a time, the net result being that we lost our precarious hold on Boydton road. General Miles, last night, had an hour or two of sport in front of Petersburg, on part of the line which was held by Barlow's division, of the Second corps. He sallied out with his brigade under cover of a terrific cannonade, and assaulted that wonderful line of earthworks that has been confronting us so long. He reached them, and actually carried them and entered them. This impregnable line was ours; Petersburg was a short mile and a half away. No wonder Miles felt jubilant. But soon his joy was checked. He had proceeded on the assumption that Lee had depleted this line to meet the attack on his right.
