HEADQARTERs ARMY OF PoTo-
MAC, July 3.

GSemi- Official Dispatch. The deci-
siye battle has been fought to day, and
the enemy have been repulsed with ter
rife loss.
At daylight Lees right wing batteries
opened upon our left, and shortly after
those of his left followed. After half an
hours cannonading, doing but little dam
age to us, the fire slackened, and only &C.
casioual shots were exchanged.
Shortly afterwards the enemy's left,
composed entirely of infantry and sharp
shooters, made an attack or our right
wing SO sudden and lmpetuously that our
skirmishers and front line were driven
back from the Entertainments, but by aid
of the batteries in the rear and the brave
ry of the 18th corps, we regaincd tho
first position, capturing considerable
number of prisoners.
Several hours of silence followed. At
one o'clock the rebel fired two shots, APP
parantly the signal for tho greatest artil
Iery fight ever witnessed on this conti-
nent. Before moment elapsed it is as
certained that at least eighty guns open
ed upon us. Our batteries returned tho
fire, and for more than an hour it seemed
impossible for man or beast to live
The range, as exhibited on the two days
previous, was wanting on this occasion,
most of their shells exploding far in the
rear of our front, and generally missing
our batteries.
Under cover of this, Lee advanced
his column of infantry from their covers,
and made several desperate attempts to
carry Tie lines by assault; but each sue
cessivo attempt was repulssd with terri
bic havoc to them.
Some of our batteries, whose ammuni-
ton being exhausted, and the men ex-
hausted, ceased to fire, and on the ap-
proach of the reserve batteries, withdrew
to the rear. The enemy only seeing the
batteries withdraw, and installing this
| for the retreat of the federal forces,
made a terrific attack on our entrench-
ments and obtained position in our
lines, cutting to pieces and almost anEi-
hilating the small infantry supports; but
before they had time to rejoice at their
imagined success, the fresh batteries pour
ed deadly fire of canister and case
shot into their ranks, and the infantry re-
serves, Joined on each flank Of the gap,
charged them and added greatly to their
destruction. They were completely sur
prised, ard hurriedly threw down their
arms and asked for quarter. Nearly the
entire brigade of Gen. Dick Garnet sur
rendered. and Garnett himself was
wounded and barely made his escape.
Longstreet was MORALLY wounded and
captured. lie is reported to have died
| in an hour afterwards.

THE MOST TOUCHING EPL
SODE OF THE WAR.
MADISON. WIS. July /.

MADISON, Wis, july l.
A letter from New Orleans to the
Journal, says that Gen. Paine, formerly
Colonel of the 4th Wisconsin, was SO
verely wounded and will probably lose
his leg. He is in the hospital at New
Orleans. He fell bravely leading his
brigade agains. the rebel entertainments,
and when the assault was repulsed, he
was left on the field. He crawled into a
small gully to escape the rebel sharp
shooters. Aftes lying there awhile, four
negro soldiers volunteered to bring him
in. When within a thort distance they
were shot dead.
Gen. Paine was finally rescued. but
not uRta fourteen negroes sacrificed their
fuss al the attempt!
Tie latter says the fourth regiment was
badly cut up. and SAYS it was universally
conceded Mt New Orleans that the ne
groes make capital soldiers, equa! to any
u the army.

WasuISGToN. July 40 A. Nj.

WASHINGTON, July 40 Am.
The President announces to the coun-
try that the news from the Army of the
Potomac to p. NJ. of the Sd is such as
to cover the army with the highest honor
and promise great success TO the cause
of the Union, and to claim the condo
lence of all for the many gallant fallen !;
aud that for this he especially desires on
this day that He whose will, not ours,
should ever be done, be everywhere re-
membered and rcvereuced with the pro-
foundest gratitude.
[Signed.1 ABRAHAM LINCOLN:
PHILADELPHIA, June 5.
The Journal publishes the following in
an extra:
BALTIMORE, June 5, IL: so A. M.--The
war correspondent of the Journal has
Just arrived from Yesterdays battle field.
He esteems the rout Of Lee to have
been thorough and complete.
Meade has not only captured 10000
rebels, bnt has recaptured our own troops
who were previously in the hands of the
rebels.
THREE p. Mt is really true that Lee
has been totally routed and is seeking
escape.
P,easanton has cut off his retreat
through the gap leading to Chambers
burg. We took lis pieces of artillery
from Is, 900 to 10000 prisoners, and all
they took of us in tho first days fight.
We hold the town Of Gettysburg and
all the entrf nchments.
1t is complete victory.
Our troops are in excellent spirits.
They say universally this battle is the
most desperate the Army Of the Potomac
ever fought.
From the latest intelligence read here
it is fully believed that Gen. Lees army
has been completely defeated.
There has been no fighting to day.
The enemy is endeavoring to retreat to
South Western Gap.

THE WAR ON THE POTO-
MAC.
HARRISBURG. June

HARRISBURG, june &.
General Couch received intelligence
to day. which is considered reliable, that
Lee intends occupying and holding Ma
ryland Heights until bis army can cross
the Potomac.
No news to-day from the Army of the
Potomac.
The 18th N. Y. regiment left Baltimore
to-day for Frederick.
The Baltimore american of yesterday
says every available man in Baltimore
and Washington is being hurried to
Frederick to intercept Lees flying and
demoralized troops.
A great battle will probably come off
tomorrow, which will probaly be final
struggle.
Meade has been reinforced by Gene
rails Couch, Schenck and Heintzleman,
and will nearly double Lees army.

THE FLIGHT OF LEE AND
PURSUIT OF MEADE.
PHILADELPHIA. Jl


The Was ,ington Star says it was es-
timated at GETTYSBURG TINT Lee has lost,
up to saturday morning, by deseition,
since crossing the Potomac. one entire
brigade of 5000 men.
He is clearly cut off from takiug either
of the lower and shorter routs leading
to Virginia, and must be endeavoring
to make for the Potomac at Hancock.
We have strong hopes he will not be able
to get back into Virginia with his artil-
lery or transportation, and the men with
which he NAV himself escape will not
number fourth of his boastful aud
over cofident army.
HARRIsBurc. July 6.
The authorities here are in ecstacies
over the news received here to-day.
The Potomac river has risen six feet
within the last twenty hours. which
must necessarily destroy all the fords;
and, there being no bridges within strik-
ing distance of the army, all means Of
retreat must be cut off.
A dispatch received tonight by Gen.
Couch states that Gen. Gregg with
force of Pleasanton's cavalry had an en-
gagcmnt today at Fayetteville, in which
he took 1000 prisoners.
The militia under Gen. Smith are in
supporting distance of Gen. Gre GO and
rapidly advancing on the rebels.
Gentlemen who left Gettysburg last
evening state that Longstreet is dead and
within our lines.
Everything looks as if Lees army
would be forced to turn and give battle
or surrender.

TIE GLORIOUS NEWS.

under the skilfIl and daring leadership of
It's new commander, it has wiped out on
the soil Of Pennsylvania all the disgraces
it hiss suffered from the incompstency of
of its leaders, or the mischances of an
evil fortune, on the soil of Virginia. 1t
has more than wiped them out. 1t has
written the renovated plimpsest of its his
tory all over with glorious deeds, and
crowned the graves of all its dead he
rocs, old and new, and the brows of all
who survive to share its present glories,
with the lauiels of the browning victory
of tho war.
For months back, the organs of jeff
Davis have been loudly borsting that the
time had at last come for transferring the
theatre of war to northern soil, and they
Lave luxuIiated to their hearts content,
in dreams Of the easy conquest and pill
lage and devastation of northern homes
and cities which were to follow the pro.
posed invasion. We'll, they have tried it.
The results we now know. Their ex per-
fence has not been such as.to invite them
to repeat the experiment, if they had the
opportunity, and in all probability before
they are through it. they will have been
effectualy deprivel..of the opportunity or
the power to repeat it. The first time a
rebel army has set foot on northern soil,
with aserious purpose of invasion. it has
been expelled with such terrible and dis.
astrious ignominy, as hss never fell to
any army throughout the histor of the
war.

RATHER LIKE IRA couple of climbs
of the law" who were conducting a suit
before Justice in Rochester, N. Y, got
incensed at one another, and finally came
to blows, The court sat by, and locked
coolly on, until the fracas was over.
The combatants apologized for dis
turbing his honor, but the Justice wiping
his specs, coolly declared that he hadn't
been disturbed in the least-he rather
liked it.
