WASHINGTON, June 5, | p. IN.

To MAJ. Gen. Dir:
A dispatch from Gen, Grants head
quarters, dated half past eight o'clock
last night, has been received. 1t states
that at p. IN. yesterday (Friday) June
Sd, the enemy suddenly attacked Smiths
brigade of Gibbons division. The battle
lasted with great fury for half an hour.
The attack was unwaveringly repulsed.
Smiths losses were inconsiderable. At
p. m, Wilson with his cavalry fell
upon the rear of brigade of Heth's di-
vision, which Lee had thrown around to
his left, apparently with the intention of
enveloping Burnside. After sharp
but short conflict, Wilson drove them
from their rifie.pts in confusion, and
took few prisoners. He had previous
ly fought and routed Gordon's brigade
of rebel cavalry. During these fights he
lost several officers, among them Col.
Preston, 1st Vt. cavalry, killed, Col.
Benjamin, Sth New York cavalry, Sc
verely wounded. Gen. Stannard serving
in the 18th corps, was severely wounded
yesterday Friday,
Our entire loss in killed, wounded and
missing, during the three days opera
tions around Cold Harbor will net ex-
coed, according to the Adjt. Gen'ls re-
port, 1900. This morning, Saturday.
June 4th, the enemy's left wing in front
of Burnside was found to have been
drawn in during the night.
Col. Cessuola in command of 5000 men
arrived here yesterday, having marched
from Port Royal.
Telegraphic communication between
Cherrystone and Fortress Monroe con-
tinues interrupted.
A dispatch from Gen. Sherman, dated
Yesterday, June 4th, a. m, thirteen
miles west of Marietta, reports that his
left is now well around, covering all the
roads from the south to the railroad
about Ackworth. His cavalry has beer
in Ackworth and occudied in force al
! the Altoona passes. No other military
| intelligence has been received by the de-
partment. EDWIN NJ. STANTON,

To MaJor- General DIR!
We have dispatches from Gen. Grants
Headquarters down to o'clock last
evening, which state that there had been
no fighting during the day The enemy
made an attack, Saturday night, on
Hancock, Wright and Smith, but were
everywhere repulsed. Hancock's lines
are brought within forty yards OF the
rebel works. The rebels were very busy
on Saturday, constructing entrench-
ments on the West side OF Bottom S
Bridge, and towards evening threw
party across to the East side. A dis
patch from Gen. Sherman, dated yester-
day, $50 p. m, at Altoona Greek, states
that the enemy, discovering us moving
around his right flank, abandoned his
position last night and marched Off
Gen. Mcpherson is moving to-day for
Ackworth; Gen. Thomas, on the direct
Marietta road, and Schofield on his right.
1t has been raining hard for three days,
and the roads are heavy. An examina-
ton of the enemy's abandoned works
here show an immense line of works,
which | have turned with less loss to
ourselves than we have inflicted upon
them. The army supplies of forage ana
provisions are ample. -.....
