A BRILLIANT RAID.
DESTRUCTION OF TORPEDOBs.


On the afternoon 81 the 11th inst, Commr

formation that party OF Rebels were engaged
in placing torpedoes in the Rappahannocka and
Piankatank Rivers to blow up our gunboats,

self and took with him about three hundred
colored troops from the camp who embarked
on the same night.
The troops were landed with thirty six sea.
men, under the mmand Of Capt Street, with
boat howitzer; and the peninsulas between
the Rappahannock and Plankatank Rivers
and Mob JACK Bay were pretty Thoroughly
SECURED.
The boats explored the Rappahannock as
high up as Urbana, and the whole length OF
the Piankatank and succeeded in finding ten
torpedoes, four of which were exploded, send
ing the water up in huge jets. Six others
were got out OF the river unharmed. They
were constr ucted OF tin cases filed with DOW.
der, and were to have been exploded by per.
cussion, a tarred string leading to the shore
being arranged to set them of by. The amount
of powder in them varied from thirty to sixty
pounds.
the Internal machines were seen on shore, and
the troops pursued them some distance en-
countering some two hundred rebel troops,
who were there to protect the party fixing the
torpsdoes, when a little skirmish ensued re-.
sulting in the killing Of 10 rebels, the wound
ing of a number Of others, and the capture of
above twenty prisoners. The colored troops
ere said to have behaved with great gallantry.
The leader OF the torpedo party, Acting
Master Maxwell, Of tho Confederate Navy, q
notorious raider who has hitherto given us
much trouble, was killed while attempting to
escape by swimming creek.
The expedition also destroyed q grist mill
with large quantity Of grain, and large num-
Der Of cattle and mules which were brought
of. The vessels OF the squadron destroyed
over thirty boats and captured four large kegs
of powder. The parry returned on Saturday
afternoon delighted with their success. having
lost only one man killed and Eve wounded

pedttion met with no loss.

LEE STRONGLY INrRENCHED

We have very late information from the

was found In a strongly intrenched position
between the Po and Mattapony rivers.
The entrenchments are regularly construct

ing that they were constructed as long ago,
perhaps, as the time of Hooker's advance in

DIRECT FROM THE FRONT,

A gentleman who left Gen. Grants head
quarters at ten O'Clock yesterday morning
states that there has been no fighting since
Thursday, with the exception OF occasional
sharp skirmishing. The sensation report OF
cotemporary Of a great battle on Saturdsy
night and the capture Of a rebel battery and
large number of prisoners has no confirmation.
The enemy were confronting Gen. Grants
army in force, showing sullen determination
to contest his progress
The greatest confidence was felt at head-
