Cavalry Fight at Black Rivera
Rebel Sortie Repulsed.

REAR OF VICKsBURG, June 30-The
official report of the cavalry skirmish at
Big Black, few days ago, says our cav
airy were surprised by Writ Adams
cavalry while telling trees across the
road, and lost in killed, wounded, and
missing 40 men, instead of 40 prisoners,
as at first reported.
Gen Sherman has marched far enough
to prove false the reports of Johnston S
advance brought in by scouts. The
rebel General is not near US. Suspi-
cions are entertained that he is rein
forcing some other army, or preparing
to intercept our communications above.
The last feet of boats from Memphis
were fired into at various points along
the river
Night before last the rebels made an
attack on Gen. Humans front, drove
the 4th Illinois considerable distance
and took number of prisoners, includ-
ing the Colonel of the regiment The
lost ground was speedily regained, and
about an equal number of rebel prison
ers were taken. The 42d Illinois is re-
ported to have lost a few men also.

down trees in Gen. Tuttle's division, kill
ing the sutler of the 9Th Iowa, and injur-
ing several others.
A flag of truce left here few days
ago to the forces in Louisiana, back of
Milliken's Bend. 1t is supposed to have

The firing was heavy and continuous
all last night.
The siege is going on regularly.
The health of the army is still good.
The weather has been pleasant for a

The Herald contains the following:
MARYLAND HHIGHTs, June 2S.-We
were visited here yesterday by General
Hooker accompanied by Brigadier GEN
eral Warren.
The object of the visit was to inquire
into the propriety of evacusting the
Heights.
He sent for Col Reynolds, our able
engineer, and asked him what object
there was in holding the Heights.
The Colonel replied that he had often
asked the same question, and never got
a satisfactory answer. Hooker then is
sued an order that the place should be
evacuated by seven o'clock next morn
ing; that such guns as could not be
taken away should be destroyed, and the
stores removed
Immediately after he informed Gen.
Halleck of what be had done, whereupon
he received dispatch countermanding
the order, and saying the Notifications
had cost too much to be given up, unless
under the most urgent necessity He
considered Harper's Ferry to be the key
to the present and future operations Of
the Army of the Potomac
Hooker's comment on this was natu-
rally enough: "What is the use to hold on
to the key after the door is smashed2"
While on his way back from the
Heights, he received an order from
Washington removing him from the
command, and placing Gen. Meade in
his stead
