To Major General Diz, New York : The despatch from General Grant, men- tioned in my telegraph this morning (published yesterday) was dated at Jericho Mills, twelve o’clock noon, May 25. An official despatch from headq uarters, Quarles’ Ford, at$ o’clock this morning, has just been received. It details movements in progress since yesterday, of which it is not proper now tosay more than that they will manifest theirresult within twenty-four hours. Our sick and wounded in Fredricksburg have been transferred to Washington, and the army material and supplies removed to points nearer to the present fleld of opera- tions. From the month of Red river, May 21, Major General Canby reports that the army from Red river was delayed in crossing the Atcha- faluya by tho high wator ama incnffeient pon- toon equipage. The crossing was completed to-day, and the army is now moying across the Mississippi. Brigadier General A. G. Smith had a spir- ited engagement with Polignac’s rebel division on the Sth inst., defeating it, driving it severaj miles and captnring three hundred pnsoners. In areportat 10.45 to-day, General Butler says: ‘* Further official reports show that the repulse at Wilson’s whart was even more com- plete that telegraphed. The enemy retreated during the night, leaving twenty-five of their dead in our hands, and showed 8 loss of killed and wounded of more than two hundred. From the accountsof every officer the negro troops behaved most splendidly.” Nothing bas been heard from General Sher- man’s command. Epwin M,. Stanton, Secretary of War. WasHINGTON, May 27, 1561. To Major General Diz, New York: A despatch from Major Generai Banks, dated May 2ist, on the Mississippi river, was re- ceived to-day. It details the brilliant achievementof Colonel Bailey in constructing a dam across the fails of Red river, for the relief of the gunboat fleet, the particulars of which haye already been made public. The army, in moving from Alexandria to the Mississippi, had two engagements with theen- emy,oneat Mansuna, and one at Yellow Ba- you; in both the rebels were beaten. Genera! Banks states that uo prisoners, guns, ‘wagons, orother material of thearmy had been captured by the enemy, except that abandoned to him at the unexpected engagement at Sabine Cross on the morning of the Sth of April; that, with the exception of the losses sustained there, the material of the army is complete. A despatch has been received from General Butler, but no mention is made of any conflict since the defeat of Fitzhugh Lee, at Wilson’s wharf, by the colored brigade of General Wild. No inteligence has been received since my last telegram, from General Grant or General Sherman. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War. ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. gee es Late Operations of Interest. HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, Near JERIcHO Mitts, Va., May 25.—When my last dispatch was written a considerable force of the enemy was disputing our passage ot the North Anna. Gen. Law’s division of Longstreet’s corps was posted in strong earth- works between Long Oreekand the river, and they seemed disposed to hold Taylor’s bridge at all hazards; and they poured astorm of shot and shell from their batteries when Gen. Bir- ney. with his division, advanced. Colonels Pierce and Egan, with their brigades—the Ist and 2d—made an assault on the enemy’s works at six o'clock on the afternoon of the 22d inst. The riflemen of the enemy poured a deadly fire into their ranks, and they charged on the batteries on the high ground @ little to the lett of the bridge, sconiéd the open space in every Girection, tearing up theearthworks with their whizzing missiles. The redoubt was carried at the poirt of the bayonet, and a considerable * number of the rebels killed in the entrench. ments, and 110 of them captured. : The assault, which was made under the im- mediate direction of General Birney, is con- sidered a very brilliant affair, and General Hancock wrote him a very congratulatory let- ter, expresting his thanks and admiration for the masterly manner in which he handled his command; for, in spite of the terrific fire con- centrated against him, he maneuvered his troops with such consummate skill that his losses are very small. The 3d and 5th Michigan, s9th and 124th New York, the 99th Pennsyl- vania, and the 17th Maine, suffered more se- verely in the assault than any other regiments in the division. They stood bravely to the work, tired and weary as they were with a Jong march on an exceedingly sultry day, facing the storm of bullets hurled against them with unflinching brevery. The rebels, when driven trom their redoubt and rifle-pits, retreated across the river, many of them swimming, the bridge being too muc! crowded to admit of their crossing with as much celerity as they desired. The assault on Taylor’s bridge, spanning the North Anna, was made without loss of time by the 4th Maine. The bridge was carried after 4 short skirmish, and the rebels driven from their fete du ponts on the opposite bank. The 4th Maine held the bridge until they were relieved by & regiment from the Excelsior b: le, which was relieved in turn by the 20th Indiana and a portion of the 40th New York. At eleven o'clock in the evening the enemy made a sortie from his works, and endeavored to retake the bridge from us; butafter aspirited skirmish of about twenty minutes’ duration, he Was driven back. At midnight he made another attack, witha much larger force, and drove our men from the bridge and held it for some time, and made several attempts to burn it. The 7th New York heavy artillery, under Colonel Morris, coming up, the were forced to retire; the fires they kindled were extinguished, and we occupied the bridge without trou- ble until morning. At seven o’clock a.m, on the morning of the 24th, General crossed the North Anns atthe bridge with his division, followed by General Gibbon and his division, and soon after by the balance of the corps. ‘The 2d corps is now in line of battle abont a quarter of a mile from the river in a tolerabl y ood position. One part of General Hancock's fine is within four hundred yards of the rebel waesas . wanes “If you see as Bead: hit ae Skirmi was sept ri but no real engagemen took place: tbe: & The Sth, 6th and 9th corps are across the North Anna also.

THE WAR IN GEURGIA. a : pe al en the Advance— ed—Johnsten Thought te have Reintorced Lee and Benuregura. Curcaco, May 27.The Journal’s Nashville correspondent states that General Sherman's entire army resumed its march from Kingston, Grorgia, on Tuesday.

CMABA, May 27.—The Union Territorial Gon- ven icp of Nebraska yesterday appointed six delegates tothe Baltimore Nationa! Conven- ‘fou. Resolutions endorsing the Administra- tion, and instructing the delegates to vote fer President Lincoln’s renominauien, were unan- imously adopted. Invasion of Kentucky. «The miltary authorities here received infor- mation yesterday that the famous John Mor- gan, at the head of four housand men and with eigbt pieces of artillery, had a through Pound Gap into Kentucky. His de- S1€DB wiv, cridently, to ect eupplies for his mished command and cut the Louis- ville and Nashville railroad. There are troops enough in Kentucky to thwart his designs and use him up as effectually as when he visited this si¢e of the Ohioriver. Wecan’tsee why the old horse-thief takes so many chances of getting hie neck broken. We have no idea he will get off without a scratch or two should he be again captured. What a brilliant thing it would be for our city regiment, which, we learn, bas reached Louisville safely, to 6 ES the old rascai some fine morning, and ring his scalp home &s a trophy.” We clip the above from the Indianapolis Journal of yesterday morning. We were ad- vised of an extraordinary movement of troops in Eastern Kentucky on Monday afternoon, but the pews was regarded as “contraband,” and we refrained from giving it tothe public. It seems thatour namesake at Indianapolis has been favored with telegrams transmitted from Hesdquarters District of Kentacky to Gov Morton, informing him of the fact, and desiring him to hurry the hundred days troops of In- ciana to this State as rapidly as possible. The dispatch was regarded as private. but since it bas ben made public by the Indianapolis journals, we copy it simply to correct a few errors connected with the statement as pub- lished above Morgan has oot yet entered Kentucky. The latest rews at headquarters lest night was to the effect that he was concen- trating about 5,000 cavalry at Abingdon, Va., for ne rpusnose of making a raid into the State. This weare assured he will not beable todo, as there are ample troops in Eastern Kentucky to resist any advance the bold raider may attempt. We are not permitted to give the disposition of our troops. or their strength.— Louisville Journal, May 25. Lrcacy To GEN. BUTLER oF ONZ MILLION DOoLiaRrs.—The New York Express save :—The will of John Bu ler. brother to Maj. Gen. Bat- ler, has been offered for prohate in the surro- yate’s office in this city.

The partiou- lars of the will cannot be made public till the latter part of the month, which is the first re- turnday. Itis understood, however. that there are several New Orleans claimants who intend to file petitiotis as creditors. RIcBMOND IN SIGHT.—After the rebellion had been in progress some time one of the re- bel papers announced that before we took Richmond we “would have to go over two Hills, a Stonewall, and up a Long street.” According to this programme Richmond is m sight, and we have but to charge over the last Hill and the city is oure, as one of the Hills is een: Stonewall is dead, and Longstreet die- abled. 87-A curious work on cosmetics, recently published, strongly condemns rouge and pear! powder, but informs the ladies how they may give color to their cheeks without danger.
