After the capture, he crossed the Arkansas River, and it was supposed he intended to strike the Little Rock Railroad.

THE OPERATIONS OF TUESDAY. {Correspondence Philadelphia Inquirer.} HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC TWELVE Mites NORTHEAST oF RICHMOND, May 31, 10 a.m.—Our line of battle remains, nearly as yesterday, with the exception that it is somewhat further advanced. Wrights Corps (Sixth) is on the extreme right and Warren’s (Fifth) on the ieft, Han- eock’s (Second) connects with Wright and Burnside (Ninth) with Warren. Our front on the Richmond road from Hanovertown via Mechanicsville, is within less than twelve miles of Richmord, and on the left of our line we are still nearer. Our right is within absut five miles of Hanover Court House, and our eft about the same distance trom Oold Har- bor on the Chickahomiap: The Rebel line opposite Wright and Han- cock’s Corps extends along Takopotomy Creek, but near our centre that stream couses to the northeast, and our lines besects it. It is prob- able that the enemy has a line of works ex- tending from near this bend in the creek to the Chickahominy, but his main line on his right is thought to be beyond the stream. The posi- tion of his left on the Takopotomy is probably merely an inciden ‘al one, held to gain as much TOTICE OF DISSOLUTION.

When the attack on Warren’s Corps was commenced Gen. Hancock was ordered to make an assault in bis front, and create a di- version in Warren’s favor. The divisions of Birney, Bariow and Gibbon ranging from right to left in the order named, at once pushed forward a strong skirmish line and made a spirited attack, Barlow’s Division, which moved a little earlier than the others, was the one most warmly engaged, and succeeded in driving the enemy’s skirmishers from the crest in front which they had occupied all day. In accordance with the instructions, the at- ewes discontinued an hour or two after ark. Torbert’s and Gregg’s divisions of cavalry encountered two brigades of the enemy yester- day on our extreme left, and bad a sharp fight with them, resulting in our favor. Gen.

WASHINGTON June 3—A dispatch from the Army of the Potomac, dated 5 p.m.on Tues- day, says: This morning Birney’s division advanced againsta breastwork held by Breckinridge’s corps on the sonth side of the Tolopotomy Creek on a high eminence, ina very strong po- sition, and one, which might have been easily held against a vastiy superior force. The enemy, after firing a round or two, an@ seeing our determination to take the place, evacuated and retreated to the woods. Our loss was about twenty-five, and took fifty prisoners, mostly belonging to Breckinridge’s command, some of whom said they were in in the valley in the fight with Sigel; but didnot fight asstubbornly as they did here. Captian Rouse, Sixteenth Massachusetts, and Ajndant Jackson, Second New York, were among the wounded this morning, the latter having his leg amputated. The attempt made to turn our left last night and to cut us off from the White House, our new bace of supplies was defeated, and with considerable loss on both side: GEORGETOWN Councits, June 3—Board of Aldermen.—The President (Mr. Cox,) read the communication of the Mayor, vetoing the res- olution directing the market-house building committee to contract with the lowest bidder for the erecton of @ new market house. The question occurring on the passuge of the bill notwithstanding the ve.o of the Mayor, it was psssed by the following vote:—yeas— Messrs. Beall, Godey, Berry, Shinn, and King, 5, nays—Mr. Cox—1. The Council resolution directing the Guardi- ans of the Georgetown Schools to have two windows placed in the front room of the base- ment of the West Georgetown scheol house, was passed. The Aldermen also passed the Council reso- lution appropriating $1.200 for the purchase of bose and the placing of reels in different sec- tions of the town, The Board then took up the Council resolu- tion asking the appointment of a committee, consisting of the Mayor, one member of the Boara of Alcermen, and one member of the Board of Common Council, to confer with the Commicsioner of Internal Revenue, in relation to the direct tax law ot August 5, 1501. On motion of Mr. Beall, Mr. Cox was ap- pointed on behalf of the Aldermen, and the bill paseed. The Council resolutions establishing a hack stand, and in favorof John T. Essex, were passed. Adjourned. Common Council__The following communi- cations from the Mayor were received: A message returning the bill for the erection of a new market-house, with the Mayor's rea- sons for declining to approve the same. The main reason is the probability of a very heavy increase of the debt of the Corporation, which would become a heavy burden on the town for years to come. The present financial condition of the town urges cantion and frugality in appropriations. The Mayor says in his mes- sage: “Since the Holland debt was taken off our hands by Congress, at no time have we been so much in debt as now; at no time within the last forty years has it been so hard a matter Dr. Cragin said he designed to vote tosustain the yeto. The circumstances of the town a this time forbid such an outlay. Besides thi asmall minority of the citizens only favor th building of the market at such a cost. Mr. Hill caid he had conversed with citizens generally, and found but little opposition. The only opposition, in fact, is among those who ave monopolized the market for years. As to the veto, Mr. H. was satisfied by the Mayor's own calculation that in twelve years the mar- ket will pay back $60,000, and then we will have the market at a cost of $10,000. The bill was passed. Yeas—Messrs. Uiém- ents, Edmonston. English, Heiston, Hill and Feck—6. Nays—Messrs. Cragin and Dayis—2.

Mr. C. said the object of the Mayor isto be re-eiected, and for that purpose he would sell the town and the would deprive the town of a market for that purpose, people in it; and now he Mr. O. declared that as the Mayor had pub- lished his veto before it had reached the Coun- cils, he (Mr. ©.) would publish the Mayor's communication upon the subject for two years past.
