M., Saturday.—The only fighting that took place yesterday was an attack made by the exemy on Burnside, but whether in- tended as a ieint to cover some more imporiant move, or an attempt to break through his lines, It was a failure. They opened with a heavy fire of artillery. which was returned by our batteries, and the Tebels, making a charge, were driven back in confusicn, upwards of one hundred of them being captured.
