GEN. SHERIDAN ON ANOTHER RAID.

NEW YORK, June ia despatch to the
Times says-A scout who arrived q. Wash
ington tonight Tuesday, from the front, re-
ports that Sheridan's cavalry force, which
started out on Thursday last on an extended
raid, had not been heard from when he left,
but 1t " as the impression in the army that he
had reached Charlottesville, on his way to
Lynchburg. The rebel cavalry are not in q
progress, and he will probably reach the latter
point with little or 40 fighting on the way
From Lynchburg his movements will remain
. mystery, for the present at least.
The World contains the following despatch
on the same subject, dated Washington, J une
f4:-Trere are rumors in town to day that Gen.
Sher dan has reached Gordonsville, on his
way TO JOIN Gen. Hunter, and to destroy the
principal av, nues | y which the rebel capital
was supplied.
1t is understood that he will pay visit to
harlottesville immediately, and accomplish
depots in his pathway. He is accompanied by
large cavalry and artillery force, and is
fully able to cope with any body Of the enemy
with whom he may fall in. 1t was suspected
al the time General Sheridan started that he
would pass around the sou side of Rich
mond and sever the railroad communication
leading out Of that city, but this portion Of the
campaign has probably been entrusted to Gen.
Kautz, who has once before raided over that
territory, and is therefore familiar with the
CO untry Since Gen. Sheridan's destination
has been disclosed, the importance OF his move
ment is made apparent Gen. Hunters col.
umn Is intended to act vigilantly and effec-
lively in the territory in which he is now en-
gagged. His mission is understood to be not
only the capture Of Charlottesville and Lynch
burg, but the complete and thorough destruc-
ut n of the railroads connecting them with
GordonsvIlle. With Gen. Sheridan's assist.
ance he may be enabled 10 penetrate still far
ther into the country, and effect the capture OF

An Official dispatch received yesterday states
that Sheridan's forces encamped on Thursday

A citizen Of Caroline County, who arrived
in this city yesterday, states that Sheridans
command Is about Zoo strong, with 10 pieces Of
artillery. and that they moved In three columns.

FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.

FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.
The steamer City OF Albany, which left the
White House yesterday morning, arrived here
to-day at half-past II O'Clock. She brought up
eighty I've condemned horses and mules. Also
q number Of colts and fine beef cattle captured
from the rebels by raiding party.
The White House has doubtless been evacua-
ted by this time, as all the Government prop
erty that would prove Of any service to the
army has been for warded to the James River
and all that remaiaed at the White House when
the Albany left, was about Ave hundred army
wagons, and a small quantity of forage.
Capt. Pltkin, Chief Z uartermaster, left the
White House on Tuesday on board the John
Brooks, taking with him the harbor maste and
nearly all OF the men connected with his de.
partment Capt. Pitkin has gone to q point on
the James river, for the purpose Of establish
ing his headquarters, and forwarding stores to
the army.
There is not a sick or wounded man at the
White House, and all the hospital tents have
been taken down and removed. The only tents
remaining there are those Of the Sanitary and
Christian Commissions, but they have sent all
their hospital stores away.
All unserviceable Government property Is
being loaded In transports for the purpose of
being sent to Washington. When the Albany
left the White House there were . sufficient
number Of transports in readiness to remove
everything from the place.
The steamer Cossack, which left the White
House about the same time the Albany did,
also arrived here Today. She brought mp one
hundred sick soldiers, mostly Of Rhode Island
cavalry regiments, the remnant Of q Massa.

THE PATRIOTIC OFFERING OF THE OF
.. TOWAS

- TOWAS.
Our readers who saw the passage through
this city Of Gen Burnsides corps will remem.
Der the Indian battalion embraced in it, a body
OF active robust young men. They were vol.
unteers from the Ottowas OF Michigan, and
constituted the LIST Michigan Sharpshooters.
In the fight in the Wilderness this regiment
was deployed as skirmishers, and made sad
havoc In the rebel ranks, especially among
their officers. One Of the most noted OF
the Ottowas was chief named Mo-ke-w We.
nav, or as bette known to his neighbors in
Michigan, Daniel Mo-ke.we.naw. He was
very popular with the tribe, and was the prin.
full in the use of the rife, and his men say that
in the first fight in the Wilderness he killed not
less than thirty two rebels, number of them
officers. Towards the close Of the fight
rebel sharpshooter selected Daniel as q mark,
very prominent one by the bye, he stand
ing six feet four inches in his moccasins,
and proportionately large in frame. The
rebel fired and the ball took effect in
Daniels hand, and he being unable to
reload his rifle, left the field. He went to
Fredericksburg with The wounded, and from
thence came TO Washington. It was decided
by the surgeons that a portion OF the wounded
performed, but death ensued. The body was
taken in charge by Hon. MIR. briggs, of Michi-
gan, who had it embalmed by Dr. Thomas
Holmes and placed in handsome coffin,
with a plate, upon which was inscribed the

JONES BRIDGE, Va, Monday morning, June
BY the lett flank once more our army has
been crossing here quietly for some hours.
Our wounded and sick were all sent to White
House yesterday Such of our troops as could
be moved from the front, started yesterday
Sunday morning., Our wagon trains had
for the move. These preparatory movements
always occupy day or two, when the enemy
are on our front, and it was not until last night
that the completion of these preliminaries gave
the signal for the troops to fall in for another
move.
A portion Of the Eighteenth Corps and some
other troops were first Withdrawn and moved
to the rear. During the night the rest were
quietly Withdrawn. 1t is one of the most
cimcult tasks to withdraw from the front Of
an enemy strongly entrenched with lines of
battle as close as they were, in positions just to
the left Our withdrawa was effected so quiet
iy as not to arouse their suspicion, and here we
are crossing the Ohickahominy, a full and long
days march from Mechanicsville. Where we
90 we know not
All have learned to follow General Grant
wherever he leads, and no questions asked.
We crossed in two columns, cur right here at
Long Bridge, and our left lower down at
Jones, Bridge. The headq larters' trains left
Cold HarbOr on Sunday at q. m, and we are
now encamped here. Our next march Is to
bring us to James river. So closely have we
pressed the enemy in our front for several
days that they were unable to send of sufficient
fsrces TO hold these fords, and as we have q
shorter line by twenty miles than anything
they can take to reach our rear, we feel very
secure In our position. White Oak Swamp
now protects our right wing. and the Chicka-
hominy in q few hours will cover our rear.
The Richmond Dispatch Of Saturday, June
nth, mentions rumor brought into the CITY OF
W AIDE Hampton having had sharp tight with
Sheridan's cavalry west Of Richmond, where
the Yankees were endeavoring to reach the
canal locks on James river. It claims that
they had obtained some success, but does not
seem TO attach much importance to thu state.
