General Assault on the Ene- my’s Works. Terrific Cannonade from the Siege Guns. ANOTHER VICTORY FOR OUR ARMS, tte Res be ‘Wasmraroy, May 11, 1864. Relicble information has been received from the grand Dattle field mear Spotesylvania Cours House up to dawn this morning. At five o'clock yest-rday afternoon, as heretofore tndi- cated, the genoral essault was begun by Gen. Grant on the rebel works. AD attempt ¢o take one of their principal redoubis ‘wes repulsed; bat General Gract opened with his siege guns upon all the principal fortifications, and until night & terrific war of artillery was tocessantly maintained. Meanwhile General Grant was informed that an at- tempt was about to be made by the enemy in force to interfere with his supply trains in the rear. One corps was consequently sent back for their protec- ton, This hae probably given rise to the rumor that General Grant’s army was falling back. During the night the trains were ordered to the front, indicating that Grant was successful. ‘The utmost confidence in the success of the grand assaults is entertained by officers and men. In describiog the battle, officers who have arrived bere wounded say that officers and men on both sides stood up with evident determination to make this « closing campaign, the ranks standing face to face within quarter musket range, and fring without flinching, the rear ranks closing up the gaps occasioned by the fall of their comrades in front. As said by # wounded officer to-day, if it is to be a Kil- Kenny fight, Grant bas the longest tall to his cat, and must come cut abead. Mr. L. A. Hendrick’s Despatch. Heapqvarrers, Firre ARwy Coaps, is tae Fimo, May 11, 1863 My despatch of yesterday afternoon left the army in the midst of a terrible battle—as terrible a conflict, for the time {t lasted, as any in the recent series of fights. Heretofore our contests have been invariably musketry. In this battle the roar of artillery was as fierce, incessant and almost as deafening os at Gettysburg. The battle continued till night, and darkness closed the sanguinary struggle. Like those preceding, almost without the pale of pos- sible degcription is the latest battle. Some may elaborate the details—may give all tbe lights and shadows of the grand struggie—may reveal the heroes of the day—but the aggregate struggle aud gene. ral results are tbe ouly things thought of, and, in fact, known at present; and these.can be told in few words. Our army bas added another to its list of bat” tles, and has added another to its list of victories. In the morning a change was made in the dispo sition of our liaes, Meantime our meo had greativ strengthened their earthworks, bad throwa up ad- ditional abatis, and everything evinced a determin make the day one of decisive results, Very active ekir mishing all the fore part of the day merged at Jength into 4 geveral engagement, and the engagement, as the hours wore on, waxed hotter and hotter, and flercer and sbarper were the rattle of musketry, and louder was the roar of artillery, The most deter mined and persistent effort which has been made ever since the commencement of the fight in this lo cality was made to turn our right. Charge after charge was made by the enemy on the right of our column to turn and brea it. Qur men repulsed each charge most valiantly, At length the Fifth corp drove | the enemy, compelling tim to fall back into bis third line of defences Tne ch of this repulse wa’ } dead at pointe lay piled in beaps In one of these gallant charges fell the brave Brigadier General Rice, He was at the head of bis column, as be has been in every fight. Busy in the midst of the terrible conflict was Maj.Gen Warren, Me rode up and down his lines directing move ments, regardiess of showering shells and bullets, An other horse was shot under bim—the third within the | last four days made a general arsault at seven P. Sf It was the most maguificent and terrible one of the war. Colonel Wainwright took personal supervision of tbe ar arent. The rebel We tillery of this corps. Our batteries, through the cutting down of some trees, were placed in very advantageous positions, a8 likewise the batteries of tue otber corps. Simultauvously these cannon hurled their murderous missiles of sbrapnel, cavister and shell into the ranks of tbe enemy | the combat deepened, | Our boys thought of the victories of Sherman and Butler, thought of the wetwork gathering around the evemy, aud resolved that there should be no fatture to co-operate with Ssermin and Batier—that the gathering betwork should not be broken | Night teft us victors ou every side, Our lines now ad. vanced, and we had taken more prisoners than we bad Jost, but it has been saother expensive victory to us.

(On 1 Battie Frevp, Nxan Po Creex, May 11, 1804- At balf-past ti o’clock yesterday the centre of our line, composed of the Fifth corps, commanded by Gene ral Warren, and Gibbon’s division of the Second corps, advanced upon the enemy. A sanguinary battle gasued, which lasted till nearly dark. The enemy was very Strongly ensconced in rifle pits in sucha position that ousting bim was next to impossible, Slight attacks were made along our line 7% short intervals, probably intended to discover ¢ ur strength and position rather than to harrass us. A? out etx o’clock in the afternoon the brigades of General, Rus- sell and Upton, holding a position om the extreme eft of our Hine, engaged the enemy in their front #0 bry jkly that be was obliged to give ground. At last they, charged him amd drove him into bis rifle pits. Our’men fought with desperate valor, and finally charged eon the rebel rifle pits, one of which they captured, with two thou- sand prisoners and twelve pieces of artillery. ‘The rebels soon rallied, however, and with wild yel barged upon our men in turn. For awhile we held our ‘own; but at last we were forced te abandon the works ‘we bad captured and fall back. Our loss im the affair fs quite ‘heavy, and the most of the prisoners we had taken were recaptured. ‘The rebels papers admit a toss of fifteen thousand in the recent battles‘ef the Witterness. This is probably one half of the resi loss, Seven fundred and forty rprisoners were brought in this morning. A large number of prisoners were sent to Washington yesterday.

Brooklyn City News. Exrrosion ix 4 Percussion Car Mawvractory—Ong Maw Kizep.—An explosion occurred in the percussion ¢ap manufactory of Dr. E.

We took possession of the Richmond and Petersburg Railroad, which we cut in several places, and now hold it, with a good force, without fear of being compelled to relinquish it, THR FIGHT Major General Smith commanded the right and Major General Gillmore the left. General Godfrey Weitzel, who commands the first division, made a most splendid fight, and earned great laurels from his judicious mancu- vering of troope stubbornness of resist ance. Thus far there bas been nothing but fght- fog, and the prospect is that we shall see moro of it, and we shall fight our way into Richmond, RVERYTAING LOOKS BRIGHT, Tam authorized by most competent authority to assure the public that our situation {s most satisfactory, and we have thus far bad nothing but sterling good victories.
