It is iKw pretty well known to the people of New Orlofir Ml at the Commanding General of the Depart nv it of the Gulf Los reached this city, and that he has left his army in good rcilth and .spirits, encamped near :Le uvrjib of H d River, wbrc cur 11 jet cf gunboats luI :ra-:Fpo.'t3 are also csstmbltd. As we have already stated, several days ngo, it be (::' evident that our army would be compelled to re tire forn the strongly fortified and iu all respects ex jt !! nt position which it occupied at Alexandria, the eri.it scarcity r.t wa-er in Red River preventing oar run.ho;i:s moving to adv intake, and thus laying oar I sht draft ee:irmra liable to capture and" destruction tw.p re-til-', who lined the right bank. In order to get th? vessels over the fill3 it wasneccs ...ry to cr struct a d.m, the only alternative presented h- ir.fr t'v destroy and abandon the fl:et, a thing which iJ i.tral U r.ks never bud the remotest intention of do : A I'mvi lentfa! rise, it i3 true, might have taken ; iac-', but both army nnd naval officers wt-re cf opinion ir..t Providence would be roost Iikvly to help those who Lt ip'd th m ilv.s, and they "pitched in." 'I'll d.ini was ccmp'eted, the bs&ta got over in safe ty, and. ii the mit,oi:r before narrated by U3, reached K rt lie R is-e-y without much diUL'uliy, and with very w casualties. T .e umiy K ft Alexandria the mounted scouts cf the t.-.eniy con.i'tintly hovering about cn all sides. Tha rfvtn' !-u J fralut.iry ltvsons, however, which our callant tro i-s ;?it the rebels at Pleasant Llill and Monet's il.'JS, rijd.' them keep a sife distance awiy, and no at u:k 1 consequence was made at the start. On Mo'idjy last, the ICth inst, our forces reached A voyHios t raiiies, when information was brought to He.. II it k3 that the enemy in large force had take:, up : p- H'kn which cur army would be compelled to pass, avi that thtir batteries were ready to open uoa U3. O iT uns were iairntdiately crdvred up, and skirmish es h:, t '.n to draw their fire and thu3 ascertain their x et p. .-i i n. Tbi3 rc-su'teJ sitisfctorily, the enemy ci'.-i,ii.g iil. libnut tweniy pieces ef artillery. Evry j ie-j aratioa wa3 made lor a battla by the Ui ini. coinuMi.derM. Oar artillery was placed in posi t ot tiLd a I t'uvy cannonading bigan and kopt cp with- bt t-t .-6 dioa U t a fpac2 cf Lur hours. So vigorous u-.-l w. 11 attained was this fire, that a majority of the ! ; iect 'Acre silenced. At the end cf this time the hi: hue o( cur army wes oidercd to advance cn the i; If, v.Lo were admirably posted. A narrow belt of iii.'k T.ecdi cn the sumnjit of a gradual tise in the , .: i. ticid, the site the itbtl chief had selected, and were protected by th3 timber. IJat the heavy cannonading had proved quite dlsis-irou--, at;d p.u ily unnerved tbe rebel trcop3, and the steady and inpid forward movement of the long lines of blue coats gave them still greater distaste for the v ork btfore then?, so that after a few volleys of rifle bal;? Lad been poured iu among them, they hastily withdrew f-cm the field, carrying their wounded and u-any ot tj:e-ir dad wih them. Their less, chiefly f tn oi.- artdh ry fire, was ascertained to be quite hea vy lt was not the purpose of the Union commander tu follow the ietreating fc-, and the line cf march lor S nii-port, cn the Atchfclayo, was once again taken up. 1 he ii cn;y kept well away froni cur column the bal :.nee cf Motx'ay end all of Tuesday, th? only fighting being ctc'sional brushes between the Union and rebel cavalry. O.i these cccasion3 our troops were uuiform iy fcucccf sful, and throughout the entire fatigahog march r key perfirmcd all that was required of them with un t.riog vigilance and bravery. Oa Vednc3iay, the 18th inst., tbe battle of Mellow F.iuH was tcught, which for the numbers engaged, and ti e thr.rt time our toys took to- whip the rebels, may W set down a3 one of the most gallant aflairs chroni c.t d oa the war records of the great rebellion. The advance cf our arniy reached this stream and cri med, v.ith stores, trains, etc., and not until the great er porti n 1 al got over did the enemy show himself in torce. Lat when the rebels discovered that there were no more thin they could easily defeat on their eid3 cf the sier.m. they began a vigorous attack. Ire re bus were commanded by Major General PriDce Polig rn;, whilo ours were under the immediate command of II; Ig. lien. Mower, than whom there is not a braver sDl 'itr in our ennies. " Alter a severe fight of about an bonr's duration the rebels vera driven from the field , uith a loss, at the IowtBt computation, of SOOkillci und wounded and 300 prisoners. About two hundred of the prisoners taken in this gil'ant tfluf wtre brcucht to New Orleans on the transport steamer New Dunlietb. Although we could n:t obtain aa cGIeial return of the 'casualties cn our side, they wtre not hs3 than 150 killed and wounded. T ie dinparry in loii-es between the Union and rebel lore? eLgygd, is attributable to the fact that a large Miinber o the enemy were killed during the charge in which the pr.soners were taken, and which broke their lines snd competed tLeir retreat in disorder. The valor end bravery cf cur troops are proved by the fact that we lo3t not a sinrrJe prisoner, while, as above mention ed, more than 300 of the enemy fell into our hands. This was the test attempt made to interlere with the racvanrnts cf our army, end shortly alter the engage ment endd the Aiehalalya wa3 reached. Oa the 19ih inst. the rive-r was bridged and in a rather nt.vel tunnncr. Twenty transpcrt steamers were r.n up the stream, and with them the gangway planks forming the connection an immense pontoon was lormcd, over which the trains, artillery, and army tenders on even to the meanest camp follower, passed en Friday, the 20 :h inst., cs safely and with a3 much convenience as though the bridge had been the most substantial structure ever built. Yesterday all reached tbe place where they are for the present located, and we suppose ihey will rest for a time until they recover from the fatiguea of their arduous campaign. General Hanks arrived here yesterday abont coon, accompanied by Bug, Gen. AVm. Wright, Chief cl StaQ, ad Co!. Jas. Grant Wilson, A. D. U., Lt. Col. Wm. S. Aberf, Inspector General, Major George B. Drake, A. A. G.and Lieut. Andem, A. D. C. The other members ot the staff arrived later on the steamer Universe. The dim constructed for th3 passage of the boats over the falls is a work of immense Iabor,and the great er part of which was accomplished by the army. The first dam built bu'at a'ter being completed, and be fore the boats were ready to attempt the passage, not having be:n built strong enough to withstand the vol ume cf water that pressed upon it. Thus a week was lost in. rebuilding it. When il e r'am was a second time complete all the water ot Rid River was forced through a channel but a trifle wider than the smallest of the gunboat?. As one steamer followed another into the rapids thu3 formed it Betmed as though they must be dashed to pieces, the watera throwicg them about as though they were not we!ghtier than chips. Even oar large and heavily pla ted iron clad- were tcss.'d like cockle shells upon the bosom of the stream. Bat all passed through without damage. Oa or about the 4th inst., the little gunboat Signal is taken by the rebels at Wilson's Pinntntin was the John Warner was also captured. Several' of the efS?er8 of the Signal was taken prisoners as was also one of Gen. Banks' staff. A letter received from the latter gentleman states that they were well and kindly treatej.

The report that Shr-ridan is movirg towards the Canal is not confirmed. On th? contrary it is asserted that Hamp ton' cavalry attacked the raiders last evening near Louisa Court House, and captured a battery and a large number of prisoners. No official information of the engagement has been received, but the report is credited. Another ptrty of raiders from the Valley struck the Orange and Alexandria rail road yesterday, near Arling ton, in Nelson county. The enemy have doubtless occu pied Lexington, and are apparently aiming for Lynchburg. LATiJIl FROM VIRGINIA. Sionk's fifii. JaneJ 12th, 1864.

PTKReuko, June llih; 1861. The New York Herald, of the 9th inst., has been re ceived. Lincoln and AnJy Johnson were nominated by both Conventions on the 8th inst. The Herald thinks that the ticket will have a hard road ta travel. The eleventh reso lution declares for the maiataiaance of the Monroe doc trine. A victory is claimed for Hunter ia the Valley of Vir ginia, but the information ia gathered exclusively from Southern sources. Morgan captured Mcuat Sterling, Ky., on the 8th inet. He destroyed ths bridges and tore up the traak of the Kentucky Central Railroad, between Cynthiaca and Paris, and captured a passenger train. He occupied Paris, and has destroyed important trestle woik at tht point. Hid force is estimated at twenty-five hundred. Tbe Herald pitched into the Times of Tuesday for the publication of a long account of the battle field between Lee and Grant. Tue Times claim3 that it was the most im portant battle of the war, and confesses that Grant was bad!y beaten, and the rebels undoubtedly successful. The Ueruld says it waa pub:ih3d sjlely to defeat Grant for the Presidency and succseded. Gold closed on tne 8th at 1944. A telegram from Sherman, dated Ackworth Pass, Jane 7lh, 6 o'clock, P.

An official noto says the enemy were routed, aud we captured over 200 wagons, loaded vith stores, and many prisoners. The destruction of property on the Yan k'e line of advance is unparalleled, and tho negroes are vindictive. J-ROM RICHMOND. Richmond, Jane 13th, 1834.

Early on the morn ing of that day, Kershaw's and Ilcke'a divisions at tacked the enemy ord drove him to his entrenchments. Hoke, who is reporting to Anderson, moved from Old Cold Harbor, ani Kershaw Ironi the vicinity of Beu lah Church, their object being to eecare certain posi tions to be used either ia attack or defense, as occasion mijrht require. During the afternoon the enomy attacked Heth, of Hill's corps, and was har.dsomdy reputed by Cooke's and Kiiklend'a North Carolina brigades. Breckin ridge, who reports to Hill and Mahone, commanding Andersen's old division, drove t be enemy from their front, taking about ore hundred and fifty prisoners. Whilst these movements were Di-bc made below, the Federals pushed forward a h'.nvy column of cavalry from Hanover Court Hous ii th direct ten ol Ash- land. " he men were provided with ten days' rations, showing that they bad elerted out cn a laid, probably with the hope of b.ing able to reach tbe DunvUa rail way, or at leist create a d version in favor of Grant. Hampton, who has been placed in command of all the cavalry of the Army of Northern Virginia, wa3 pre pared for them however. The reached Ashland, and had begun to destroy the railroad truck at that place, wtun the Con'ederate hcrse attacked 1hem and drove them back to th? Pnmur.key. Generals Rosser and Pierc?

Keitfc, whose regiment (the 20 :h Sou'h Carolina) had ju?t arrived ard been attached to Kerthaw's old bri gade, received a mortal wound while leading the bri gade, from which he died yesterday. No braver spirit ever gave bi3 life for the liberties of his country. Yesterday, the 2 J, pe-i feci quiet reigned along the lines until five o'clock in tbe alterucon, when Eirly at tacked tbe enemy in his works and drove him out of their formidable hes ot entrenchments, lleth, ol Hill's corps, participated ia this-good work. While the a'.tack was being made in Irout, Gordon moved around and took tbe enemy iu fUnk. So vigorously did our troops prtss the flying foe, that he was unable to make a s'and behind hia second line ct entrench menfe, winch they enbrcd pell mell with him. Early's as will not exceed 200, wnile the eiemy's was" heavy, ;:cladinr 700 prisoners, taken cbuliy by Gerdoa, it3tle3 and JJt ih, nearly til cf whom belonged to the U. S. Regulars. The Stonewall Bujrada behaved as it wa3 wont to do m the dajs ct us UiSt great leader. Whilst our lots waa &l'got in numberp, it was g eat in fact, in that it includes the brave General Doles ol Georgia, who fell wit i hia feet to the loe and his face to Heaven. Ile tntcrtd the service in April, 1861, and from ft at time foi ward he served his country with a zeal exd tkill worthy of all praise. This was on our Id':. Oa the light, about Ine same hour, Breckinridge, supported by VVi'cox, was ordered to aesu!t the enemy on Turkoy 11 ill, and wrest it from him. This he and Wilcox did iu handsome style ; and thus an important position was etcural in tinte for the great battle which, it was then evident., coakl not be much longer postponed. Sure cnt cgh, with tit? early dawn this morning came the bccni of cam on end ti e sharp ratUe ol musketry. Grant mr.de a fundus atsault along cur whole hues ex cept on the right, ihe (JonJe.daates Dad thrown up entrecehn.tn's or br. astw-rks ol logs and earin curing the precrdirg night end dy, and were prepared for the onset. Ji.any occupied toe Jeit or tne lines, nivicg leth, of Hill's corpp, on Lis extreme left ; Anderson held the centre, and Hill the nght. t he lines were an irregular crfse nt, coveting the battle field of Cold Harbor, mid est', nmrg from a point somewoat aoove and in t dvacce of Beolah Church, in a southwesterly direction , to the viciriy of McL'lellan's bridge, over the Cinckahcminy. It was for these bridges that Grant w-s aimirg ; ar.d havicg S: cured them, and forced Lee Lick into his works t.bout KiGbmoud, he hoped to have trirgs his own w;.y. He had ala?:doned Li3 strong position behind the Totopotomony Creek, and had slid around to the right or.c3 more ; but Lee had uniicipated him this tin e. Tbe latter had not only thrown l: army across his path, but his mn had construct ed strong field woiks for their j.roieelou. I'ho Cenlidrate s have beccrns as great adepts with the epade aa ilcClellan ever was. Some of tha army wits sa? that if a column is halted a lew minuiea on a march to rest, the men will go immediately to work to throw up cn'ri-'cchm-'nts. Graut evidently hoped he would be able to fake Lee by surprise, lie bad nrst been n-mforcea oy iauer, nnd thi last mun m the bospi'a's, Provost guard house3, :.d even the clerks in the Quf-.rterrnas'.er's and Com missary's Deportments had been sent io him to make a sme thing ol it. But when he ra .ved last night further around to oar ri"ht, he did not know tint Lee had also moved, and been rein orced by portions of Beauregard's ' , .i , , . a J iojces, and ii at; ni3 uo ps ua i proviuju very guyu woik3, behind which to receive his attack. He cssauKed tha entire line, as already stated, at an early nour. iui cne asaauiL was maae upua iiariy unu . -l - j 1 i . J . T7f l J Heth, and that waa remised wun ease and great loss to the enemy, and with trifling loss to tbe Confede rates. The attack upon Kershaw, Hoke and Fields, of Anderson's corp3. and Breckinridge, of Hill's, cn the contrarv. was heaw and vigorous, and wa3 con tinued from halt pest four o'clock until bu!f past ten. An immense lorce was massed against this part or the lines, "and it was brought up again and egain and hurl ed with Titanic violence against the Confederate posi tion. As many as seven assaults were made Egainst Kershaw ami a portion ct t lelas division, ea;n one o which waa reculsed with tremendous slaughter, ine carnage was dreadful, not only at this point, but in front of ilcke asd Breckinridge, ateo. Hunton and Corse's biiqadea. of Pickett's divisioa, were also en gaged, and acquitted themselves handsomely. Indeed, the Confederates, if such a thing were pocsib'e, excelled all their previous performances. The enemy broke over the lines at a salient in Breek enridgre s front, end for a lew minutes nad possession of three guns and so much of the ground as had been occimied bv three com; anie?, but Finegan's brave Fioridians, attached for a time' to Alahone's Division and acting as reserves, lushed forward and swept them out of the v.oiks like a whirlwind. Colquitt's Geor gians cerlormed a eiiBi'ar leat when CJini?raan s brig ade was prtfS'd bek momentarily on Hoke'a front they sent the nemy literally flying across the field. Law's, G. T. Andersons and Gregg's brigades Field's division were chkfly engaged on that part of the lines, and icught wita great aroor. .Law received painful bat not dangerous woandover the eye. But it ia tco early to attempt to go into details. The 1 es ot the enemy in front cl Keraaaw'a vetere.n divi- sion is rtp:e;ntvd on a!i hands to exceed anj thing tha has occurred during the war. The ground was strewn with the Federal sain ia front ol Fields, Hoke aid Breckingnoe a'?-. vv hat the enemy a loss was 1 sbal not undertake to say. Oar own casualties cn the con trary, are so small as to appear almost incredible. wid ouiy add, that in high and well informed quarters it is estimated tnat lor every Hundred men we lost the enemy lost mere tnan a thousand I How can this be explained ? Was there not aa unseen, but All power- lui Maud imposed oetween us and our enemies, to tarn aside their missiles of death tnd save ua from bairn ? The battle raged until half past ten o'clock when the enemy, haviog betn repuls-d at ail points, retired from the terrible contl ct, stunned, bleeding at every poro, and mangled in every urno uea. .-e, determiatd to ad here io his wise defensive policy, and preserve bis army for lature wants, did not pursue. There has been con- Ulv enemy's Parrots are passing uncomfortably near whi' I write. There are some indications tnat a last desper ate apsault will be attempted this evening, probally alter dark. We had the advantage in the ground, both for our infantry an artillery ; bo much, indeed, that the Fed erals could bring but few of their batteries into play. But we bad another advantage : we stood where the immortal Jackeon rxa3e hia first great flank movement against the enemy. It waa the old battlefield of Cold Harbor and Gaines' Mill, ground already consecrated by I he blood of brave men fighting for life, liberty and peace. Catch'ng the inspiration of the sacred seeses, and emulating tbe patriotic " zeal of the departed hero, the conquerers of 1862, the vetrana now of 1864, the Conft derates went into the fight with no other thought but that of victory. m But a few prisoners were taaen or lost, nnd no euns. I should have s' ated aba-e that Generals Kirkland and Lane were wounded not dangerously and that General Finegan received a slight hurt in the hand. P. W. A. LEE A!D BEAUREGARD. A correspondent of the Mobile " Register," writing frcm Bichmond, ssy3 : It was stated yesteiday that Lee's spies had informed him that Grant had been ordered to risk no more bat tles, but to precipitate bis whole force on tbe South side, and to play tbe Yicksburg game on ua. Hence Beauregard was eent for laet night. I saw him on his way up. He was looking well, but said his health was not very firm. He was to return before morning. Now that the two best millitary beads in the Confederacy have been put together, we leel pretty certain Grant's game will be spoiled. I think Lee will attack to-morow. His army ia in excellent condition, has a marshy creek for a defensive, line, but is tired of digging dirt and anxious to assume the offensive. On the other hand, the Yankees are not eo belligerent ea they have been. An officer tells me they have not fought really well except on the first day, and dnriDg the time 1fy held a part of our woods at Spottsylvania O. H. Butler showed some eigns of uneasinesi Saturday, as if about to move away -or to make another attack. Our ironclads were under imperative orders yesterday to interfere a3 much as pos3ible with any attempt to reinforce Grant. We expected them to attack the Yankee flet jthia mornirg, but have not luard from them. Congress is anxious to adjonrn on account of the enormour expense of living here. It is heavy enough in all conscience. Mr. Memminger i3 said to have sent in his resignation more tlaa a mi.nth ego, but the Presi dent declined then to receive it. His successor ia now under consideration. Companies of reserves are coming io, and as usual they come first from the mountains. It is touching to see gray beards of CO, and even 70 years old, and lads not more than i4 or lo marching out to Camp .Lee. Io a squad of Yankees brought in Ia3t week, I was sur prised to find nearlv half a dozin men of 50 or 60 years. Tbcv were substitutes no doubt, and had hard, horrid faces. Gamma.
