WAR DEPARTMENT,

WAR DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, June 1910 p. m.
To Mai. Gen. Dix.-The following de-
spatch from General Grant, dated yester>
day, II a, M, at City FONT, has been re
ceived by the Department.
The 9th corps this morning carried two
more redoubts forming part of the defenses
of Petersburg, capturing $50 prisoners and
4 guns. Our successes are being followed
up. Our foaces drew out from within 81
Yards of the enemy's entrenchments at
Gold Harbor. and made flank movement OF
about 55 milesImarcb, crossing the Ohicka'
hominy and James; Rivers, there 1000 feet
wide and "a feet deep at the point OF cross
ing, and surprised the enemy 8 rear at re-
tersburg This without the loss OF wag.'
on or piece Of artillery, and only about l5O
stragglers were picked up by the enemy
In covering this move Warren's corps and
Wilson'S cavalry had frequent skirmlshing
with the enemy, each losing from 81 to 6O
killed and wounded, but inhicting an equal,
if not greater loss, upon the enemy.
The 18th corps were transferred from the
White House to Bermuda Hundred by wa,
ter and moved to near Petersburg. The
night they arrived they surprised and cap
tured the strong works Northeast OF PEI
tersburg before the enemy could get sutfi :
cient force in them to join them.
He was joined the night following this
capture by the ID corps, who in turn cap
tured more of the enemys redoubts furth'
er South, and this corps was followed by
the 9th with, the result above stated.
Al the troops are now up except divis'
ions covering the wagon trains, and they
will be up to night
In their endeavors to reinforce Peter:
burg, the enemy abandoned their entrench
ments in front of Bermuda Hundred. They
expected troops from the North side Of
James liver to throw into the place before
we discovered it. Butler took advantage
of this rnd moved force at once upon the
railroad and plank road between Petersburg
and Richmond. Too much praise cannot
be given the troops and their commanders
for the energy and fortitude displayed dur
ing the past five days. Day and night has
been the same, no delay was allowed on any
account. E. NJ. STANTON.

The Presidential Campaign
From The Universal Catholic. /

FROM Inc universal Catnolic.I
The contest for the Presidency is opened.
Which way will the Irish vote be CASTE
Not for Lincoln; not for Fremont: 1t will be
given in its integrity for the Democratic
candidate, whoever he may be. Nothing
can change the democl acy of the Irish. On
that point no rhetoric can soften, no bri.
berry can corrupt, and no threat can fright.
en- them. They are the most persistent Of
all our citizens in the political complexion.
In that important concern they are granit>
ic-frm In the midst af change, reliable in
the midst Of apostacy. Their abomnstiop
for Abraham Lincoln is unbounded; their
hatred for Fremont knows no limits; their
adherence to jackson, his principles and
his followers, is superior to all degeneracy.
The man who attempts to change them has
no knowledge of their nature. They may
be said to be metaphysical democrats, that
is. democrats who are as much above the
laws of variation as the laws Of essence
themselves. 1t must be admitted that this
is good Characteristic If all our citizens
were marked by it, there would be no rev.
olution in the land to-day and until it
shall distinguish all our citizens, things will
be in disturbed state. We know that
reams upon reams of paper will be used in
efforts to cajole the Irish during this CAM
paign, and that abuse upon abuse will DO
elected on their heads is certain. But few
months will show that the remarks writ
ten in this brief article were all true, and
if political leaders have good sense they will
observe them.

Lincoln Repeating his Jokes.

Here is compliment that Lincoln pa.
per bestows upon the dignified statesman
and accomplished gentleman, whichit 1t is the
honor as well as the felicity Of this nation
to have as its President:
President Lincoln's "ittle story" about
swapping horses while crossing . river,
which he related to the deputation Of the
loyal league which waited on him Thursday
night, was an old one. He first told it when
asked to dismiss Cameron. And though the
deputation, being in the immediate presence,
were in polteness bound to laugh over it
immoderately, people who read it, especial.
ly for the second time, can't see anything
very laughable about it. We trust that Mr..
Lincoln will not think because be 10 nom-
mated second time, that he has therefore
full leave and license to repeat all his old
jokes. He must get an ntirely new set for
the next term, that is, if il is essential to
him TO have his story on each occasion. If
not, the people would be just as veil salts
fed, and it would add materially to the dig
nifty of his position If he would leave OF
his jokes altogether till be retires from the
Presidency.-Springfeld Republican.

Battle ON the ChickahOminy
CAVALRY IN A PANIC.
1...ss..ssss.u.ssssss.i.s.,.i.

New YORK, June lS.-The Herald's cor
respondent of the 5th Corps, gives the fol.
lowing account of the fight near the Long
Bridge:
In crossing the Chickahominy at Long
Bridge, Crawford::s division had the ad.
vance. After crossing, he at once pushed
forward to the heights on the other side and
there remained till daylight, when other
divisions of the 5th Corps took positions
nearby him.
The corps remained all day, but not with.
out an independent and most brilliant fight
by Crawfords division. The cavalry still
in his advance, portion was sent in the
direction of Turner's Fork across the Oh ssk
ahominy and some towards White Oak
swamp. After crossing the latter, the ca
valry came upon the lst and I'd South Car
olina regiments of Hampton's brigade, and
being inferior in numbers were sent back
for infantry supports.
Crawford sent Gen. Batos' brigade with
instructions to aid the cavalry to get pos>
session of the road. Very shortly after
Sykes brigade went to their assistance.
In some redoubts thrown up by Mcclellan
Ln6 enemy nau placeu tuToo Caunol lIOu
which they kept up vigorous shelling on
our troops.
Three objects were to be gained by hold
ing the Long Bridge road, upon which all
our trains were, silencing the guns on the
redoubts, and keeping possession Of White
Oak Swamp bridge. Barns battery was
placed 80 as to command the bridge and to
prevent the enemy crossing over from that
direction. Meanwhile the other batteries
directed their fire on these redoubts, and
the counter cannonading was heavy and fu-
rious for time. The cavalry got out of
of ammunition at this time and were heavily
pressed and compelled to fdll back which
they did in great confusion. The infantry
stoon their ground and punished the pursu-
ing cavalry severely as they came within
masketry range. The enemy's cavalry fell
back and did not show themselves again.
From this time the fight was between
Crowfcrd's division and the enemy's infan-
try. 1t was 8 p m when the enemys in
fantry arrived. Brisk skirmishing ensued
and the enemy made an attack but made an
attack, but was so declsively repulsed they
did not venture to repeat it.
