It is positively known that Grant has greatly contracted his once around Petersburg, having with drawn an army corps or more from his extreme left, which, uddle in the woods. Two of his aids were not so fortunate, and our soldiers captured them on the much-coveted spot. Grant's intentions will probably be developed in a day or two.

the enemy is abandoning our right, south of Petersburg, and moving to the north side of the Appomattox, towards Bermuda Hundred. This, however, is not true. They enemy have retired some mile or so on our front, on the right, but have not left, though there is some move on hand, as immense clouds of dust in this direction all day have indicated. Scouts report great stir in the Yankee camps. Prisoners recently captured say that the 19th corps, numbering 30,000, has recently reinforced Grant. It is not true that Mahone lost any Floridians or Alabamans in the fight at Reams's Station, or indeed any prisoners. There is nothing doing to-day beyond occasional shelling by the enemy.

It is almost impossible to find one man out of one hundred thousand who does not believe with the great apostle of negro perfectibility, that the Union is in very truth a "covenant with hell." Lincoln has produced this change through his instruments — Grant, Butler, Sheridan, Kantz, and the like. To him be all the glory and all the consolation. The piratical hordes which have been let loose to wastes and destroy the land have been of great service to our cause. Grieved as we are to witness the ravages they have committed, and the individual distress they have caused, they cannot be said to have done us harm, when the grand issue is considered. They have made every man a patriot. They have plundered all alike — the Union man as well as
