To Major General Diz, New York: The movement of the Army of the Potomac to the south side of Richmond, across the Chickahimony river and James river, has pro- gressed far enough to admit of the publication of some generalfacts without danger of prema- ture disclosure. After several days’ preliminary prepara- tions, the movement commenced Sunday night. The isth corps, under command of Gen.

Wright’s corps and Burnside’s moved to Jones’ Bridge, where they crossed the Chickahominy, and marched thence to Charles City, on the James river. Hancock’s and Warren's corps crossed the Chickahominy at Long Bridge, and marched thence to Wilcox’s, on the James river. The James river was to be crossed by the army at Powhattaa Point. A dispatch from Gen. Grant, dated Monday evening, half-past 5 o’clock, headquarters, Wilcox’s Landing, says that the advance of our troops had reached that place, and would commence crossing the James river to-morrow (Tuesday), and that Smith’s corps would commence arriving at City Point that night; that no fighting was reported during themove- ment, except a little cavalry skirmishing yes- terday. Tuesday p. m., at one o’clock, General Grant was at Bermuda Landing. Ina dispatch from him, dated there, of that date, he says: A Our forces will commence crossing James river to-day. The enemy show no signs of yet having brought troops to the south side of Richmond. 2 Our movement from Cold Harbor to the James river has been made with great celerity, and so far without loss or accident. An Official despatch, dated at Gen. Butler's headquarters, 2.20 p. m., says that Smith’s corps was coming in, 5.000 having already landed, A despatch from Gen. Sherman’s head- quarters, dated at 3 o'clock yesterday after- noon, near Kenesowa, states that the General is in front, advancing his lines on Keneso- wa. Another unofficial dispatch dated at 9 o’clock last night reports some advance to-day, that Thomas has gained ground, and that one rebel brigade is nearly surrounded. It further states that the rebel General Polk was killed to-day and his body sent to Marietta. In another part of General Sherman’s East Mississippi divison, our forces have not met with the success that has attended competent commanders. General Washburne at Memphis reports that the expedition consisting of 3,000 cavalry, 5,000 infantry, and 16 pieces of artillery, sent out from there under command of Gen. Sturgis, en- countered 8 large Rebel force on the 10th inst. under command of Forrest at Guntown, on the railroad running south from Corinth, and -after a severe fight, in which our loss in killed and wounded was heavy, our troops were worsted, that at the latest accounts Sturgis was at Colliersville retreating toward Mem- phis. He further states that with the troops that had lately arrived Memphis is safe. General Sherman having received news of Sturgis’s defeat reports that he has already made arrangements to repair the disaster and placed Gen. A. J. Smith in command, who will resume the offensive immediately. Z No other military intelligence has been re. ceived by this Department since my last tele- gram. Epwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War.
