The Subscriber has the pleasure of announcing to
his friends and the public generally, that after much
delay trouble, and expense, owing to the war, and in
terruption of trade, he has procured a fresh supply of
Medicines, Toilets and other articles in his line, which
he has been unable to furnish for some time past.
He has to pay CASH for all he buys, and hopes that
.such of his patrons aa do not pay promptly, will take
theiint, and that all in arrears, who have not gone to
the seat of war to fight for bur independence and
dearest interests, will pay up their arrearages or a part
at least, so that he may be able to meet pressing de
mands, and keep his Stock' replenished. :
$HSTAI1 orders' from the country , (unless from
prompt and reliable parties,) will go unnoticed, if not
accompanied with the CASH or its equivalent.

SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 31, 1862.
From the Richmond Dispatch.
MOVEMENTS AT THE LINES,
From the best information before us vre learn
thai one cf the trains on the Central road, when
city bound, had a narrow escapo from capture or
destruction at Federal hands on Monday, but the
engineer, with promptitude and nerve, applied
extra power, and the train rushed through, the
Lincoln lines with gcat velocity and safely ar
rived in the city. Later io the day, however, a
second, train appearing, some negroes upon the
road waved handkerchiefs, and made euch gesti
culations as to warrant the conductor in believing
there was danger ahead, and having troop3 on
board, be moved very, cautiously forward until
discerning artillery pointed-on the track, put back
with all commendable expedition. From posses
sion of the road, the enemy retarded communi
cation with our. for. es in the vicinity of Hanover
O. II., and to prevent permanent or obstinate
occupancy, it was whispered tb.Pt a force would
be moved forward in ahat direction to form a
junction with Anderson and Branch, acting there
in concert. -
Arriving at a point at the right of the lines,
(Nine Mile road,) we found the troops there
drawn up in line of battle, with banners floating
and ordnance pointed. Although in considerable
force on the north bank ot the Chickahominy,
(near Price's and Garnett's farms,) the enemy
seemed loth to appear and" engage. They had
ushered in the day with picket firing, and had
driven 'ours in. "We waited their approah.
They skulked in the dense woods, but came not.
At eleven o'clock, however, the regular bodming-of
cannon told an action of some nature was occur
ring at a more distant point, more to the left and
in the direction ot the Mechanicsville road.-
Proceeding in that direction, it was discovered
that a sh air) engagement was then progressing
upon the larm of Mrs. Vaughn, some six miles
on the York Rivei Railroad. The foe had appeared
in much force in that locality, but were vigorously
attacked, and after soma eighty minutes of lively
firing, both of aitillery and musketry, the enemy
fell back, and our forces resumed their original
position at that point. The particular force en
gaged, and casualties, are not known. The pJo
pla in the locality hastened tothe city and greatly
magnified the affair.
bearcdy had this brisk attack ceased than loud
detonatious on the extreme left told that meeting
forces, near Hanover C. H., had clash'ed n arms,
and that the grand overture lo tho coining trage
dy had begun with great vigor and will. So
far distant from our lines, (fifteen mil?,) and
travel thither retarded by guards, and the late
ness of the hour, (two P. M.,) it was almost itn
liOtsible to obtain information of worth ; yet from
all that we can gather it would seem that a force
had been dipatehed there to dislodge the enomy
from the railroad, and to re-open communication
at loaet t llano verU. II. A part of IjuugeirootV
division was sard to have moved up and attacked
in ore direction, while Anderson's and Branch's,
commands, moving down upon the Court-House,
assailed the toe in another. The fire of ordnance
was regular and rapid, incessant volleys of muske
try being perfectly audible for miles. After an
hours duration, the firing ceased; but was re
sumed again with increase fury between 3 and 4
o'clock, lasting, without, intermission, until sun
set. It is known that wo captured some prison-
era in the fight, (some fitty-oad,) and the natural
conjecture is that the enemy must have been de
feated. That the great fight is approaching i3 incon
trovertible ; it is even said that Johnston crossed
the swamp fast night to precipitate a general
engagement and bring his full force into play.
Anderson, Branch, and the rest, at the Court-
House, must form a junction, or they are isolated
and useless ; but to effect this by a vigorous de
monstration may possibly" usher in the great his
torical battle so long expected and so fraught with
conseqences.
Ere this may reach the reader's eye the first gun
will have fired, and cne long, lasting streau ot
flame envelope our noble army, battling as he
roes never did before foe freedom and for their
homes 1 Let none tremb'e let cowards herd
with brutes hut let all raise their hearts and
"hopes to the God of battles, who gave us as birth
riijht, liberty, andrwho always crowns the brave.
additiokxl.
About nine o'clock last night, a train arrived
by the Fredericksburg road, which brought down
fifty -.three prisoners, captured in the first engage
ment Yesterday afternoon. These all belone to
the 25th Nsw "York regiment, four companies of
which were detailed as Bkiruiihers,and before they
were aware of the presence of our forces they found
themselves surrounded by the 28th North Carolina
reciment. A brisk skirmish ensued, resulting in
the caDture of the number above stated, and the
mmnlfltfl discomfiture of the remainder of the
detachment The-prisoners think that nearly all
the others were either killed or wounded.
These men state that little confidence is felt in
the te8ult of the anticipated general engagement
by tho rank and hie of the .Federal army, 'iney
acknowledge the suoerioritv of our soldiers, and
confess that in a land fight they have very little
hone of success. They had beard of the splendid
victory of Genertil Jackson over Banks, which
they represent to have had an exceedingly de
Dressinz effect uoon the' private soldiers. Our
loss in this engagement was slight.
Later in the afternoon, commencing about 4
o'clock, a terrific fight took place' near the same
point, but of this we have do particulars.
