From Guineas Station.

New YORK, May 24.-The following is a
special to the Times:
GUINEAs STATION, 2lst, Z p. M.-The
army of the Potomac is again on the march
towards Richmond, during the night Han.
cocks corps, which had held the left of our
lines in front of Spottslyvania, took mp the
march moving on the road psrrellel with
Nv river. Early this morning they reached
Guineas Station on the Fredericksburg and
Richmond Railroad, two miles due South
from Fredericksburg, thence pushed onward
following the railroad, and to night finds
the head Of Hancock's column at Bowling
Green, eighteen miles South of Fredricks-
burg. .E
Tho other corps has been following the
seme general line, and is now passing the
point which this despatch is dated, you
will observe from the indications that the
commanding general has effected turning
movement on the right flank Of Lee, who
now is hastily falling back to take up new
defensive position, il is expected his next
stand will be on the South Anna river, al
though he may endeavor to hit us while
moving by flank, just as he did when out
fanked in his lines on the Rapidan.
Heavy firing is heard at this moment
across the Ny, where one of our columns is
moving one mile South by West
Guineas Station is the point Of conllu-
ence of the Pc and Ny rivers, and at this
point the stream is crossed by Guineas
bridge which is in our possession.
Our army has now all gone fIom the
and has held before Spottsylvanlo c. X. the
past two weeks.
Our present advance while it puts lis in a
very advantageous position in regard to the
enemy, at the same time perfectly covers
our communications which are via Feeder
icksburg and Acquia Creek.
The railroad will soon be all right from
Acquia Greek to Fredericksburg and will
doubtless be pnt in order South OF that
point as we advance.

It is charged that these acts OF violence
were done without due legal process and
without the sanction of State or National
laws. If this be true the offenders must
be punished If theowners of the above

they must be proceeded against and punish
ed by those laws. ANY action against
them outside of legal procedures is crimi-
pal.
The Governor argues the matter at some
length ana concludes. -s7f-7s
In making your enquiries, and in prose
cutting the parties implicated you will cal!
upon the Sheriff OF the county and on the
heads Of the police department for any as
sistance and needed forces. The failure to
