The last report from Gen. Stoneman, who
is in the advance towards Richmond received
last night, was that he had cut Lees railroad
AMI telegraph communication with Richmond
and captured Cordonsville; but for that we can
not voueh.
So much fer the glorious Army Of the Poto-
mae, and IFS noble commander, as far as heard
from up to this morning.
Our adyices from the field Of operations up TO
noon to-day are that the victory of General
Hookers army is more complete one than was
at first supposed.
Gentleman up from the army to-day says
that it was understood at Falmouth that Lee
attacked Hooker near Chancelloryille just after
nlidnis hi this morning.
Ii true it was nothing more nor less than
military death struggle which it was necessary
for Lee TO make in order to held his men in trim
and keep them ignorant of the fact they are sur
rounded and must surrender if they cannot cut
their way out.
Lee knows that night attack Is most likely
to produce stampede but be must play that
.gun1e on somebody besides Gen. Hool,sr
Stoneman's cavalry appears to be doing effec-
tive work in The rebel rear, and is stated to have
cut the Virginia Central Road, and also the
fredericksburg and Richmond Road at point
near Milford Station, southwest Of Chancellor
yillc tearing up some fire miles of the track, and
thus cutting of Lees communication with Rich
mond. SLOVENIAN Is also sold 10 have captured
supply train at that point.
We have not heard of the trcssel-work nearer
to Fredericksburg being destroyed, but if any
considerable extent Of rail his been removed, it
will cut off all communication between Fred
ericksburg and Richmond sufficiently long to
answer Rockers purpose, we take ii.
