WAR DEPARTMENT,
. WASHINGTON, June IS.

To Nag Gen. DiI:
The following despatch from Gen. Grant,
dated yesterday IL a. NJ, ut City Point, has
been received by the department.:
The 9th corps this morning carried two
more redoubts forming part ofthe defepees
of Petersburg, capturing 450 prisoners and
guns. Our successes are being followed
up.
Our forces drew out from within so yards
Of the enemy entrenchments ut Cold Har-
bor, and made flank movement of about
55 miles march, crossing the Chickaho Amy
and James River there 1000 feet wide and
"a feot doep at the point of crossing, and
surprised the enemy's rear at Petersburg.
this without the loss Of wagon or pei 9 Of
artillery, and only about $50 stragglers.
In covering this move Warrens corps
and Wilson's cavalry had frequent skrm
ishing with the enemy, each losing from SO
to 60 killed and wounded, but inficting an
equal if net q greater loss upon the enemy.
The 18th corps, Smiths, were transferred
from the White House TO Bermuda Hun
dred by water, and moved out TO near Pc.
tersburg. On the night Of their arrival
they surprised or rather captured the very
strong works Northeast of Petersburg, be.
fore sufficient force could be got in them
by the enemy.

The Last Act i'm the Tragedy of the
Polish Rebellion.

The Car of Russia, having crushed out
the Polish rebellion and the Revolutionary
Government about year ago, is now en-
gagged in the work of hanging the leaders of
the revolt. 1t will be remembered that
while that great rebellion was in actual
progress, it maintained profound secrecy as
to who were its leaders, and as to its means
and agencies of operation. The "Revolu-
tionary Committee" or "National Govern
ment," was secret affair; secret as to its
members and as to its plans while its edicts
were issued in secret and executed secretly
by mysterious agents. 1t issued orders for
the assassination of obnoxious persons, and
vast numbers were suddenly and unexpect-
edly slain by they knew not whom. Some
of Its active military chiefs were of course
known; but both in field and cabinet, it
tried to wrap itself in mystery. 1t assumed
for q time very formidable proportions, and
bad it got the assistance that it was prom
ised from England and France, 1t might
have achieved success. But the immense
armies Of Russia, when fairly set in mo-
tion, soon broke it down, and reduced it to
q meresguei'rilla war, which also in turn
was crushed out; and all the notice we now
find OF the late R6lish Revolution" is such
as is conveyed in. the following telegram
from Warsaw, under date of the 9th inst:
ON. Traugott, thd head of the Polish
National Government, together with Kra-
jewski, Focyski, Zulinski and sJezioranski,
the chiefs of the different departments,
were hanged this morning'on the glacis of
the citadel. The sentences of death passed
upon eleven officials of the NATIONAL Gov.
ernment have been commuted in some cases
to hard labor, and in the others to impris-
onment In q Siberian fortress"
And so closes the latest bloody tragedy Of
the Polish Revolution.

The Capture Of GEN. stonemnn.

The Macon (Georgia) Confederate gives
the following particulars of what it terms
"An unlucky Yankee affair."" the defeat
and capture of General Stoneman:
The General had sustained heavy loss
in the engagement, and as soon as he saw
preparations making to charge him again,
he dispatched white flag, proposing an
unconditional surrender of his whole force.
The flag was received by Col. Crews, who
then confronted him with one hundred and
eighty-two men.
LAS soon as Stoneman saw the one hun
dred and eighty-two men to whom he had
surrendered, he sat down and took regu-
lar cry. He handed his sword over to Col.
Crews, and his staff directly divested them
selves of their arms.
"SiX hundred Yankees at once threw
down their arms, but the remainder seeing
by this time the cowardice of their General
in giving up to such small force, broke
through the woods pell-mell, helter-skel-
ter, making off to the left. General Iver-
son ordered pursuit, and It's firmly believed
nearly the whole party will be taken, with
but few exceptions.
"We captured full one thousand horses
and many stand of arms, two brass three
Inch rifle cannon and caissons, several colors
and guidons. Stoneman had only two can
non. He gives as an excuse that he was
out of ammunition, but that is only his stO-
ry. The Alabama brigade was sent in pur-
suit of the enemy" ....I I.I....
The Macon papers of the 4th state that
the captured Stoneman raiders continued
to arrive there as prisoners. A large num-
ber OF officers captured at Newman had
also arrived. T.. ..

tai No. IS near by, and had the Surgeon !, ;
charge examine him. He was then bleed
ing freely, and the Surgeon said it was i'm
possible to save his life. After lingering
for two or three hours in great agony, Willis
died victim to the internal policy Of arm-
Ing niggers and placing them in positions
OF trust or Importance.
The niger was arrested and placed under
guard for q few hours, but was again placed
upon duty there the same afternoon, as If to
brave the universal feeling OF indignation
that thrilled the city when the occurrence
was generally known. AaJ
MIR. Willis was a gentleman much esteem
ed, of harmless and Quiet disposition, was
perfectly sober, and there was not the shad-
ow of pretence for his cruel murder. He
leaves young wife, to whom he had been
but few weeks married. r.
The Coroners inquest returned verdict
OF unjustifiable shooting, and blame the
guard in measured terms as was policy in a
city where martial law Is the rule and only
mod of some shoulder-strapped noodle is
needed to consign man to cell, inside
the walls of the penitentiary. The current
OF popular feeling, however, is SO strong,
that General John F. Miller, commandment
of the post, has ordered the Louisville Le-
gion here for post duty, in place of the mig
ger regiment. The Legion was raised by
Gen. Rousseau at Camp Joe Holt, opposite
Louisville, when hostilities first commenced,
and what there is left of it is composed of
very fine men. 1t will be a most agreeable
relief to see the last of these strong scented
blackguards take their way to the front.
They are needed there. ..

GEN. CANDY, who is now in supreme
command at New Orleans, has, it seems,
undertaken big '.job," that is, to hunt out
the rascals who have grown rich by rob-
berries under his predecessors. He has is
sued the following notice:
"All persons who have paid sums of mon
ey to any officers of the Government, or to
any party purporting to represent the Gov
ernment: gf 'tf
"For t-'assessments'-'
assports'-'privilege mail, or
release from any required Duty or any
other, without consideration, will please
hand to the undersigned, at his Office, a
concise statement of:
"'Date of payment'-'property represent
ed'-'time for which payment was made
'amount-'to whom paid'-and any other
information necessary to establish the
amounts collected in this city and in the
Department of the Gulf"
Among many others it might be well to
call Beast Butler to the stand. The people
might then learn something about the pro-
cess by which he, a man worth nothing at
the commencement Of the war, has sudden
ly become millionaire; and how a brother
of his, worth just as little four years ago as
Butler himself, was able at his death re-
Gently, to will Butler another million. The
Buffers were exceedingly fortunate in
money matters at New Orleans. We trust
Gen. Candy will ventilate their rascalities
among others. 80. AZ ~ VIZ eea

Spider Capturing a SnaIse.

The Orleans New York; Republican re-
lates that one day last week eX-Comptrol-
Ter Lorenzo Burrows discovered, in build
ing belonging to him, small snake sus-
pended by the neck under a shelf. On ex-
animation, the suspension proved to be ac-
complished by nothing more substantial
than the threads of spiders web.
The main web or nest of the spider was
just under the shelf, perhaps two and half
feet from the floor. From this depended a
cable formed of number of strands, and
from this hung the snake. The upper half
of the snakes body seemed to be wound
around with the tiny thread, which was so
tightly drawn about his head and throat as
to prevent the reptile opening its MOUTH
Having thus secured him, the spider SEEM
ed intent on drawing his prey up to his net,
and when discovered had so far succeeded
as to have half the length of the snake from
the floor.
The snake manifested its dislike of the
treatment by occasional violent struggles,
in which he would spring from the floor
and exert his utmost powers to break his
filmy bands. The struggles were very
complacently and unconcernedly watched
by the spider fiom his nest above. The
snake was about a foot in length, and the
spider was by no means large specimen
of his species. The apparently unequal
struggle was witnessed by more than one
hundred persons during the day, attracted
by the report of the singular contest. But
that the cable was accidentally broken by
a person who entered the room, the spider
would have undoubtedly drawn the snake
to his den. This singular case presents
double room for wonder-first at the ''strat-
egy" of the spider in getting his coils about
the snake, and second at the wonderful
strength evinced in drawing up a reptile at
least one hundred times his weight.

He seized the railing of the caboose but

No engagement has occurred since
Sunday. The enemy has fallen back as
previously stated to their lines two miles
from Petersburg, and are erecting strong
works similar to those we encountered
on our arrival here.
The rebels work night and day, evi.
dently expecting an attack.

Oar losses in the 9th corps are II
officers and 1872 men killed "A officers
and 7S4 men wounded ) 90 officers and
1858 men missing. The 9th corps lost
about 300, which makes total loss 1855
in these commands. No doubt many
will yet turn up.
Crawford's division sustained the
greatest proportion, he having lost about
1000, mostly prisoners.
