FROM PETERSBURG.

Rebels Threatening a Dem onst alton upon
6rants Llnes-Grant Ready for Them.
The mail steamer Keyport arrived here this
morning from City Point. She brought up the
army mail and number of men of the 13otn
Ohio. zone hundred days men, who are SICK
with fever. There were some indications that
the rebels are meditating an attack upon
Grant, and they appear TO be cauuously feel-
i1gour lines Considerable diminishing has
taken place within the past few days at differ
ent points along the lines
The rebels seem TO imagine that Grant has
been SO much weakened by sending troops to
the relief of Washington that they can risk an
attack Our army is much in hopes that the
rebels will come out to make an attack under
that impression.
The rebels have taken advantage of the with.
drawal OF some Of our gunboats from the James
river, and yesterday morning they fired upon
the steamers George Weems and United States
from field battery stationed near Wilson's
Landing, Che Weems had a portion OF her
stern knocked of, and three shots passed
THROUGH the United States, not doing much
damage, however.
As The Keyport came down the James River,
she saw a large body of rebel cavalry on the
banks short distance below Wilcoxs. The
Keyport put on all steam, and passed them with
full Roadway, but the rebels made no demon.
StratioH as alnst the boat.
Nothing has as yet, been heard from Sheri.
dan, who has gone on another raid with large
force of cavalry. He will, doubtless be heard
from favorably within day or two.
Rebel deserters continue to come within our
lines in considerable numbers. The Keyport
brought up twenty lone, under guard OF q de-
tachment Of the 2uth New York, commanded
OF our men under sentence of court martial, in
GLIDING captain.
The Keyport also brought up three families
of refugees, who resided in Prince George
co unity, near Petersburg. They brought with
III EN- their bedding and clothing, but in other
respects they were perfectly destitute.

dash into that city, is without foundation.
