Mr. Framcts C. Long's Despatehe: Snoonp ARMY CORPS, IN THD rare} Nean Coat Hanvon, Va., June %, 1866. THE GENERAL ADVANCE. Arrangements had been made for a genera) advance of ver Ines this morving at four o’clocl:, and the plan was warried ont af the bour specified, notwithstanding the heavy shower of rain that was falling at the time, At each fiack and in the centre the muskets of our advanced Ame of skirmishers began to rattle almost simultaneously, while ibe thunder belching canpon opened their irop Mourrs 10 join m the horrible diseord. THE @NEMY’S ARTILLERY, 4 far as J could discern the principal fire of the eery’s artillery came from batteries placed on a range Sills something less than two miles southwest. of Cool Herbor, rating that portion of our }ine where the right @f the Second corps united with the left of the Sixth. Persons who did not witness the fire of this battery can- met form any adequate idea of the manner in which the hele hissed and hustled through the air. Fora time ‘me scarcely knew which way to turn. The shot and ‘wholls fei} with fearfal rapidity. A CHARGE UPON TR REBEL LINER, Sometime between five and six o’clock a charge was made upon the rebel line of rifle pits and redoubts by a part of General Hancock’s corps, covsisting of the divi- Biome of Generals Barlow and Gibbon—the former eing on the left. The charge was made with all the gallantry that bas ever characterized each divi Bion and brigade of the Second corps. The enemy, wecing thew advancing, made every effort to check them, and poured in a shower of missiles of all kinds from his ftreochmente with redoubled fury; but there was no eheck ing tbe heroic advance of the charging divisions, WEE WORKS CARKIED AND THREE BUNDRED PRISONERS CAP TURED, On reaching the enemy’s works a hand to band combat, Dut of short duration, ensued; but the works were evens ‘tually carried. Something less than three hundred prisoners ‘wore captured in the rife pits. Several stands of colors ‘snd al! the cannons in the first line were also taken, but ‘anfortonately the guns could not be removed, as the @memy bad a battery in position to rake the line of works ‘eompletcly, and they poured an enfilading fire of grape ana cannister into the intreachments that forced our men to leave thom shortly after taking possession. Therefore ‘Wey fel back, with all their prisoners, among whom was @ colone! and several subaltern officers. Two more charges ‘were made upon the works during the morning, but no @eoided advantage was gained. THE IRISH LEGION fought like tigers, being in the hottest part of the fire. ‘Their losses are very serious, Nearly thirty commis- @toned officers were either killed or wounded in this bri- @mde alone. 4 FIGHT YOR THE 5LAG. A rebel battle flag was standing between our own and ‘Whe rebei lines this morning, and a sharp skirmish was ‘kept up for a long time to gain possession of it, GENERAL TYLER WOUXDED—OTHER CASUALTIES.

In my despatch of yesterday | left the First and Second @tvisions of this corps skirmisbing with artillery and ri- Semen in front of the enemy’s work, a little to the left of Goal Harbor General J.C.

Of course our Bharpsbooters did not remain inactive, but drew a bead @mevery Jobony that appeared within range of their vifles, and the enemy did the same, and our batteries ‘threw them a shell at intervals during the remainder of @e day.

This prob- ably will account for his disappearance on the front of the Fifth and Ninth corps, as bas been reported. THE SANITARY COMMISSION. Several times I have heard the question asked, ‘ What bave the Sanitary Commission done with the million of dollars donated to them by the city of New York *’ and in justice vo them, I will devote a paragraph to the sub- Ject. Few persons, even in the army, havea correct idea of the amount of work done by the Christian and Sani- tary Commissions; and none but our sick and wounded poldiers can properly appreciate the value of the really philanthropic gentlemen conducting the work. En- gaged in the service of the Sanitary Commission in the trans-Rapidan campaign are at present two steamboats fully manned, and two barges also fully manned# constaatly plying between Washington and ‘White House, Jaden with all mauner of stores to dis- tribute among the hospitals in the field and elsewhere, They have thirty-six four horse wagons with teamsters, &c., running constantly. One hundred and fifty agents are employed at White House and among the temporary field hospitals at the front, and their expenses during the month of May amounted to a fraction less than two hun- dred and sixty thousand dollars. Hundreds of officers and men frequently affirm that thoy have been dependent on the Sanitary Commission for subsistence. When our wounded were for- warded from Spottsylvania Court House to Fredericks burg, they reached the latter place some time in advance of their supplies; and bad it not been for the Commission our maimed soldiers would have had the pangs of hunger and thirst addod to that of their wounds, as it was some time before the regular hospital supplies reached them. The Sanitary Commission is a nobie insti. tution and a benevolent one. Its members, such as! have met, are a zealous, hard working body of gentlemen, and it is absurd to tho last degree to inquire what the Commission does with the funds given them. Kvery ra- tional man who sees them at their labors can see at @ glance what they do with the money entrusted in their hands.

(From the Richmond Examiner, May 30.) se During Saturday and Sunday the city was alive with rai The great topic was the cavalry fight near At station on the Central Rajiroad, There were dozen different versions of the affair, and one hardly knew which to accept, it being #0 variously given that it was made to rango all the from a slight, unimporiant skirmish to a desperate. bloody battle. in cases of such wild and exaggerated Tumors one approximates the trath closely by striking at & medium; and so in this The alfuir, as we have derived it from ap officer who participated and was wounded in the Gghs, may be briefly summed up as {pl- lows On Saturday morning our cavalry entered the enemy's Ines about the Junction and captored all their pici Soon after this, about twelve o'clock, our force teil upon the enemy near Hawes’ stop, about four milos from Atlee’s station, and a fight commenced. For prudential reasons ‘we omit to name the particular regiments engaged on our side, but our forces were entirely of oavairy., The tight was desperate for the time, The enemy advanced three times, but each time was repulsed and driven back for ro miles. At this juncture the enemy advanced to the Support of their cavalry a whole corps of infantry, after- wards discovered to be the Fifth army corps, and the fight was renewed. Here tho fight raged for an hour, when our men, who had no infaviry support. and finding thomeelves pressed by overpowering numbers of the enemy, fell back for about # mile, retiring stowly avd in perfect order, the enemy showing no disposition to pur- gue. Our forces held their position at night. Our Joss is variously estimated, bat the best Informed sources say that it will hardly reach two hundred in killed and wounded. Among the killed we heir men tioned the names of Lieutenant Booth, of i'rauktin county, and Dr. Michie, of Albemarle We have some account of #fight that occurred near Hanover Court House on Friday "It appears that « force of the enewy, after crossing the Pamnukey, encountered some of our forces about a mile this side of the river. After asharp fight the enemy succeeted in turning our Tight flank, and the consequence was that our forces had to fall back for about a mile. In retreating the enemy's cavalry charged our rear, but our men rallied and drove them back. The enemy is said to have both cavalry and infantry and some few pieces of artillery. Their force of cavalry was given by prisoners at eight thousand. We canuob mention without violating the restriction imposed upon us at this time the forces engaged on our side; but we may add that they did not exceed one brigade of cavalry It is reported that a portion of the’Maryland line were ambuscaded by the enemy during this fight, and sullered severely, FROM THR SOUTHSIDE AND PRNINSULA. ‘There is nothing new from the Southside. The sitna- tion remaios unchanged. So with the Penivsula. We have nothing from that quarter but the usual amount of stories of cavalry raids. THE MARYLAND CAVALRY IN YANKEES. “On Friday morning, as the Maryland battalion of cavalry—who had been doing picket duty near Dabney’s ferry, about four miles below Hanover Court House— were passing up the Old Church road. a party of Yankees, ambuscaded in the woods. fired into them, killing and wounding some forty or fifty of the battalion. The Yankees allowed our men to pass and then opened fire in their rear. In the fight that ensued Colonel Bradley Johngon had a house shot under him, and Lieutenant Colonel Brown, commanding the battalion, received a rious sabre cut across the head. We have reported to he following casualties: — Company E, Winder Cavatry, Capiain W. T, Raisin— Wilham Price, captured; Timothy Pascault, wounded; —— Morris, wounded: —— Vanderly, wound Rich, wounded; —— Lancaster, wounded and oaptured, Thomas Warren, wounded and captured. Company C——— Chisaltine, killed; Captain Howard, missing: Thomas Tennant, missing In fightiog our cavairy the Yankees are said to take especial pains in shooting and killing the horses of our men, and that this purpose is shown so plainly in the way they direct their fire that it has evidently become a plan of their warfare to kill off all the horsea they can, in ‘the hope of disabling that arm of the service, NEW REBEL CAVALRY LEADB!

The {ron-clad flect which until within two weeks have been laying at anchor at Curl’s Neck, a short distance above Permuda Hundred, is now a little way above Dutch Gap, and abreast of the position held by the right wing of Gen. Butler’s army, which is intronched on the penin- sula formed by the Appomattox and James, and east of the Richmonnd and Petersburg Railroad, which road the army baye been enabled to reach with recently mounted uns. : The present position of the fleet is Trent’s Reach—an expansion of the river making a sort of bay—and about half a mile wide, The channel here is quite narrow and ‘shallow as well, though the iron-clads, from their com- paratively Jight draught, are enabled to manwuvre more readily than one would suppose, hey thus have an ad- vantage over the rebel iron clads, which are above, wait- ing like caged lions, if wo may belicve the report, to pounce upon their prey. The river {s tortuous and bas many indentations and curves, making here and there little peninsulas separated from the main land dy narrow necks, and thus barely escaping conversion into islands. The eastern shore of the river, where the {ron-clads now are, is of this charao- ter, and low and marshy. The western bank consists of a series of rolling hills of considerable elevation, heavily wooded, and just now the contested ground between But- ler and Beauregard. Immediately in front of the present position of the fron- clads the river makes asbarp bend, and the left bank rises gradually to a commanding elevation, which is much cleared of wood and which is crowned with a large unfinished dwelling house, Near this houso the rebels have been for a couple of weeks endeavoring to erect a ‘Dattery and mount guns, as well to oppose any move- ment of the army in that direction as to be a source of trouble to the iron clads, At the order of Admiral Lee the vessels have moved into position a few times and shelled the aforementioned hill and house, with such effect as undoubtedly to make it evident to them that avy movement of that kind’ would) prove a very unplea- shat job, zi A SHARP FIGHT, On the afternoon of the 2ist of May, while everything was quiet and stili, there burst upon the atmosphere the reports of guns, and immediately the shelis came from the rebel lines thick and fast, and foll into the land which our soldiers had cleared, immediately in front of their position, The most of them fell and burst ehort, and did no harm to the Union troops. The rebel batteries were looated on the biilin front and tothe left of the iron. ciads,some distance from the river, and behind the timber, which in that place ts very thick. THE ONONDAGA ENGAGED.

The Collision of the Steamship Poca~ hontas, off Cape May, om the Night of the Ist instant, with the Steam Trans- port City of Bath. Mr, M. Van Benschoten, Chief Clerk of the steam— ship Pocahontas, haying been applied to by several persons having friends ou said steamship for informa. * tion in regard to said disaster, and earnestly requested’ by them to make a public report thereof, embraces thé firet opportunity his eofeobled health and strength will permit to make such statement as he is able from recol+ lection, all his books, papers and effects having been lost by eald disaster, The Pocahontas left New Orleans on the 24th of May, last, for New York, having on board thirty-two officers” and crew, and nine cabin and sixty steerage passengers, in all one hundred and one persons. The steerage pass sengers were composed mostly of sick and wounded sol- diers, either on furlough or discharged from the service, from the Department of the Gulf, The ship was in charge’ of Captain Samuel Baxter, acting in place of Captain Jobi Baxter, who was on board, but unable to discharge bid: duties as captain, by reason of sickness, and the acting captain was put in charge of the vessel at New Orleana by the Chief Quartermaster there, at the request of Captain John Baxter. Nothing worthy of note occurred on our passage from New Orleans until the night of the disaster, on which, ad about eleven o'clock, a light was discovered ahead, and’ as we approached it we found it to be that of a steamer stedring southward. As no apprehension was expressed’ in regard to the same, I at once retired to my stateroom. Our signal lights were all in their proper places, and our captain caused the proper signals to be timely sounded when he saw the other vessel was bearing towards us, and our vessel to be so steered as to get out of the course on which the other vessel appeared to be sailing; but she, not seeming to see us or hear our signals, which were again sounded, bore directly down upon us until the collision took place, Iwasaroused by the erash, noise ‘and confusion on deck, to which I immediately repaired, only partially dressed, and found that the steamer (whicty proved to be the City of Bath) had struck the Pocahontas Just abaft the fore chains, crushing in her side and making a breach in her which extended about two feet below the surface of the water. Whem I arrived on deck, the two vessels wore crashing together, aud remained i that situation for several minutes. When they were separated it was discovered that the water was rushing rapidly through the breacB made into the Pocahontas, and that she was fast sinking. In the meantime the passengers had rushed on deck ip great trepidation and confusion; and as soon as it was dis covered by them that the Pocahontas was sinking they commenced to jump on board the City of Bath; but only & few of them succeeded in a0 doing, as she was soon out of their reach, having hauled off and stood about a halt & mile from us. Our captain ordered all our lifeboats (three in number) to be lowered, which order wag promptly obeyed, and two of the boats were tmmediately lowered. The other boat was on the top of the forward house, which our captain tock command of; and as our vessel sunk, he, with the second officer and several pas- sengers, floated off from the wreck, and rendered most praiseworthy and” efiicient service in rescuing from drowning all those that bis boat could Gontiin whe were struggling in the water. The other two boats were filled as goon as they reached the water by those who were able to reach them and could find a place, in one o) which was Captain John Baxter, who was bapely able to leave his berth and reach the boat, from physical debility caused by his recent severe ilinem, While be was in the small boat be called my name, and } went down into the boat where he was, but at once saw that it was overloaded and would sink if not immediately lightened, I then told the Captain that I would leave the ‘Dost and take my chances for being saved in some other way, advising him to remain where ho was ere himself. I commenced eiambering back on the deck. our sinking ship, inducing several others to follow me, that the boat might be saved. I succeeded by the of a chain io again reaching the deck; but of those who followed became excited, and in climbing over the gangway they loosened their grasp and were cast Detween decks into cortain death. Although I did nod see Captain Jobn Baxter after I left the small boat, 7 was afterwards informed that he also returned to the sinking ship, and was last seen going towards his ofee. He probably went down with the vessel, as be was lost. Upon reaching the deck of the sinking vessel I ae ately went aft to tho engine house, and found our engineer stil! at bis post attending, to the engine, althoug® the escaping steam aud smoke were almost insupportabie. He remained there nobly discharging his duty until the rushing waters arove him from his room, when he leaped overboard, and was picked up by one of the emal) boats and saved. After going to the engine room I saw that the vessel could remain above water but a fow mo ments, as she was going down very fast, the bow being alrendy submerged. I ran down to the ‘cabin, and there found a cork life-presgrver, which I strapped about me and ipstantly returned to tho aft part of the vensel, finding several persons yet standing there shrieking peer migin Sad aid; among others, the first assistant en- gineer, stood by my side until the water reached un and whose last words were “Let us both die togother,” When the vessel went down we both leaped from her and became separated in the water.
