The Richmond Whig of the 18th has the fol- lowing despatch from Beauregard to General Bragg, dated Petersburg, June 16, 9.40 p. m. “Sir: The enemy made two attacks on our lines this afternoon. They were repulsed with less. We captured about 4(0 prisoners, in- cluding 11 commissioned officers. They be- long to the ist brigade of Hancock’s corps. All is quiet at this moment.” It also says that communication was inter- Tupted on the railroad to Petersburg, but that, after tearing up a mile and a half of the track and pulling down three hundred yards of tel- egraph wire, our men were so warmly pressed that they backed out and retreated from Port Walthall Junction, after makinga stubborn fight until Jate in the evening. “The principal fighting occurred two miles from Chester, where we repulsed the enem: &nd took two lines of their breastworks. ‘We captured a few prisoners, and some of the ene emy’s dead and wounded fell into our hands. The enemy’s troops were commanded by Gen. Gillmore. They consisted of 2,500 all told. Our force consisted of Pickett’s division. Our whole forces were not very heavy.” The following despatch has been received from Gen, Lee: 95 HEADQUARTERS, June ,17,— Hie Excellency Jeff. Davis :—At 11 o’clocK last night we took the breastworks..at Howlett’s House. Other portions of the same line were taken. 1 ane battery at Howlett’s is being re-estab- ished. Five vessels have been sunk by the enemy in Trent’s Reach. Ten steamers are within the Reach, behind the monitors. Some fighting oceurred near Petersburg this Taorning, without result. 4 I have ordered the railroad at Port Walthall Junction, yesterday destroyed by the enemy, to be repaired. R. E. Leg, General.

Sharpshooters were going all day. Maj. Massey, of the 20th Mississippi, was killed. At5 o'clock yesterday Hooker’s corps made a charge on Oleburne’s division, three lines deep, and was repulsed with grea slanghter. A few prisoners were taken, who confirm the above. Cleburne’s division fired 315 times with shot, shell, and canister. The enemy was not able to bring his artillery to bear. FROM THE VALLEY. A gentleman who left Lynchburg Thursday says a Yankee force, 15," strong, under Hun- ter, Crook. and Averill were at Forrest De- Re, on the Virginia and Tennessee Central lroad, some eight or ten miles from Lynch- burg. They bave done a great deal of damage to the r: d,as was to have been expected; but he did not learn the particulars of their vandalism. A train of cars arrived from Danville last evening. The Yankee feat has not been ac- complished. St Wood Peace Meeting in New York. NEw York, June 21—The Wood, or Peace State Central Committe, met at the Astor House this afternoon. persons were present.

Along and in tront of the line of the right of this army the woods haye been felled, and the remainder of the mile, which separates the two lines, is broken by ravines, and quite thick with tim- ber, and this intervening distance 1s occupied by the opposing pickets. So much for the po- sition. Althongh we have seer the enemy in no force of any magnitude, either on or near the river—that is, on the eastern bank—yet we know there are seouting and skniking parties who &re vigilantly watching our mcve- ments, and from which the fleet has snffered to a small extent in the capture of pickets, of sailors and marines, who were sent ashore, and, ‘venturing too far, were surprisefl, sur- rounded and captured. From rebel sources we have been threatened in all sorts of ways, and by all manner of things; but the threats have resulted in no recent material manifestatrons. Frof the bed of the river, both above and be- low this point, a large number of torpedoes have been taken, some made of three-eighth- inch beiler iron, firmsy riveted, and’ containing large quantities of powder, one having nine- teen hundred por «In theirexterior geom- etry has been smply illustrated; for there are spheres, cubes, and ovals, and polygons, and other kinds of gons.- Some are anchored in the river and fired by concussion; someare at= tached to logs and sent floating down theriver,: and some, I presume, from their exhaustless store, are awaiting our moving up the river.

IMPORTANT CORRESPONDENCE, HeapquaRTeRs Derr. South CARo.mma, GEORGIA, AND F Loripa, Charleston, 8. C., June 13, 1864.—General> Five generals and forty-five field officers of the United States army, all of them prisoners of war, have been. sent to this city for safe keeping. have been turned over to Brigadier General leys commanding the First Military District of thi? Department. who will see that they are provie ded with commodious quarters in apart of the city occupied by non-combatants, the majority of whom are women and children. It ig proper, however, that I should form yon that it is a part of the city which has been. for many months exposed dey and night to the fire of your guns.

HEADQUARTERS OF DEPARTMENT OF THE Sout, Hilton Head, S.C,/June 16, 1664,— Major General Sam. Jones, commanding Confed- erate forces, Department of South Carolina, Geor- gia, and Florida :—General—I have to acknowl- edge the receipt this day of your communica- tion of the 13th instant, informing me that five generals and forty-five field officers of the United States army, prisoners of war, have been turned over by you to Brigadier General Ripley, with instructions to see that they are provided with quarters in a part of the city occupied by non-combatants, the majority of which latter, you state, are women and c dren. You add that you deem it proper to in- form me that it is a part of the city which has been for many months exposed to the fire of our guns. Many monthssince, Major General Gilmere, U.S. A., notified General Beauregard, then commanding Charleston, that the city would be bombarded. This notice was given that non-combatants might be removed, and thus women and children spared from harm. Gen. Beauregard, in a communication to General Gilmore, dated August 23, 1963, informed him that the non-combatant population of Gharleston would be removed with al} possi- ble celerity. That women and children have been since retained by you in @ part ot the city which has been for many months exposed to fire, is a matter decided by your own sense of human- ity. i. must, however, protest against your action in thus placing defenseless prisoners of war in a position exposed to constant bombardment. 1t is an indefensible act of cruelty, and can be designed only to prevent the continuance of our fire upon Charleston. That city is a depot for military supplies. Ie contains not merely arsenals, but also foundries and factories for the manufacture of munitions of war. In its ship-yards several armed iron- clads have already been completed, while others are still wpon the stocks in the course of construction. Its wharves and the banks of the river on both sides of the city are lined with batteries. To destroy these means of qouinuing the war is, therefore, our object and uty. You seek to defeat this effort, not by means known to honorable warfare, but by placing unarmed and helpless prisoners under ire, I have forwarded your communication tothe President, with the request that he will in my custody an equal number of prisoners, of like grades, to be kept by me in positions exe d to the fire of your guns, so long as you one the course stated in your communi- cation, : I have the honor to be, rey, respectfally, your obedient servant, J.G.
