New York Posts Account.
Rebels i'm Strong force.

New York, May 5-The Post points
he following as the latest from General
Hooker army:
Advices Just received from Washing
ton, says the battle of Sunday was renew
ed on Monday morning The enemy
appeared to have forces, in numbers,
equal to our own and his successive at
lacks we're made with desperate spirit
The destruction of the railroad bridge
overthe MassapOmax and Mattapone
creeks, south of Fredericksburg, has GER
tainly been accomplished and the road to
Richmond is thus cut off from the en-
envy.
Eight hundred prisoners, including an
entire regiment, the ODD Georgia were
brought to Washington this morning and
marched down Pennsylvania Avenue to
the Old Capitol prison.
Their appearance was the subject of
universal comment and remark.
They were well and comfortably clad,
and not one looked as though they had
not had enough to eat
Two oficers-Major Gen. Evans, of
South Carolina, and a Brigadier whose
name was not learned-were prominent
among the number.
Evans was in command at Lees5urg
during the Balls Bluff battle.
There is a rumor current that Gen.
SLOVENIAN has captured Go louisville.

A SHARP FIGHT NEAR SUFFOLK.
REBELS DRIVEN FROM THEIR
RIFLE PITS
A MASKED BATTERY SHELLED
OUT.
BY mail to New York /:

BY mail to New York:
SUFFOLK, May AT nine O clock yes
terday morning, Gen. Peck sent force of
infantry, cavalry and artillery across the
Nansemond River, at Suffolk, to make a
reconnaissance. They advanced eau
tiously up the old Petersburg turnpike,
and when miles out, encountered the
enc uy's rifle pits which wore thoroughly
manned
The S9th n Y, and 18th n. H., made
spirited and successful charge upon the
rebel works and carried them after a
heavy resistance, when the enemy re-
treated and fell back, out of range, leav-
ing their dead and some wounded on the
field
During this time the draw bridge battery
and our army gunboat were playing up
Gu the enemy. doing good execution
among the sharpshooter secreted in the
woods. In the afternoon our troops
came upon rebel masked battery, loca-
ted . miles north of Suffolk, and at 4
o'clock, Davis Massachusetts battery
and the gunboat Briggs commenced
Smelling them out After 80 minutes,
the rebels returned the fire, which was
kept up on both sides until sun set, when
the enemy's battery was silenced.
Col Ringold of the l03d New York,
was shot while leading up the regiment
in front, and died during the night.
The chaplain of the 18th New Jersey
was wounded
While the above skirmishing was in
progress Gen. Getty crossed the Nanse-
mond miles below Suffolk, and encoup-
tered the enemy, and it was rumored
and believed that he had captured re-
bel battery of s guns and a large num-
Der of prisoners. This needs cou6rma-
ton.
Scouts were sent out from Suffolk on
the Somerton and Eatonton road, but
discovered nothing of the enemy, and
after going six miles, they returned.
The enemy's rifle .pits on the South
Quay Road, and in our front, were vaca-
ted Yesterday morning, and the trooI g
left in,great haste, taking their baggage
with them, evidently having more i'm
portant business elsewhere. .."t f.

STILL ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
Bravery of Union Trrops.

PHILADELPHIA, May 5.-The Washing
ton Chronicle of to-day has the following:
A gentleman who left Falmouth early
yesterday reports that early Sunday
morning simultaneously with the com
mencement Of the battle on the right,
our left opened on the rebel defences at
Fredericksburg, which were replied to
smartly by the rebels, but their fire grad
ually slackened,
Our infantry Immediately moved for
ward under direction of Gen. Sedgewick
His men had bayonets fixed and pre-
scented firm front and moved on until
they reached within few hundred yards
of the famous stone wall. 'tt.E5
Here they met with a most murderous
fire of infantry, while grape and CAMS
ter plowed through their ranks. Still
they pressed EDWARDS and the wall was
carried and the ridge gained. The brave
boys with a cheer pushed onward toward
the second line of Entertainments. but
an order reached them to return, which
was complied with, but not without "a
great deal of reluctance.
The opinion gained ground that it was
not necessary to drive them much furth-
er as this would prevent our forces on
the right from reaching their rear
So great was the panic of the rebels
that they abandoned cannon, arms,
knapsacks and every thing else that
would in the least impede their fight.
The works were held all day without
any desperate effort from them. They
kept :.up pretty sharp skirmshing, oc-.
casionly made rallies out of their second
and third lines of entertainments, but
were invariably driven back. l,00L
| prisoners were taken in this engagement
mostly belonging to Mississippi and
Georgia regiments, large number o.
officers from Coloners down were alsC
taken. taEGa- 1Zd-l4
1t is rumored that the rebels yesterday
made or were preparing to make an at
tack on our forces within the works, but
it is quite clear to every one, independ
ent of the high authority we have for The
opinion that even if they have been sue
cessful, it will amount to nothing. 3.
4 The main fighting has. been transfer
red to-some other point and in the opera
tons now progressing, as We hope to
, ! succ .ssful completion, the occupation c
Fredericksburg is not of the slightes
) consequence. If the rebels have attach
ed us, then it is probably mere fem
and will only amount to a useless exper
diture oflife and ammunition.
