Gen. Grant was crossing the Pamunky
on Saturday last, thus turning Lees light
flank again, and forcing him to leave o
strong position on the South Anua, which
empt'es into the Pamunky, and again fall
back towards Richmond.
Since Gen. Grant has opened commu-
nieation with Tappahannock We expect to
have regular dispatches from him again,
but they will be longer in reaching u,
than when the army was in the neighbor.
