Saturday and Sunday brought us good deal
of news from Gen. Grant, all Of it good. OH
cial dispatches arc to half past eight Saturday
night. There was no engagement on Thursday.
On Friday morning Gen. Grant attacked, drove
the enemy into his intrenchments, but gained
no decisive advantage. In the evening the
enemy made an isolated assault on one portion
of our line, occupied by Smiths brigade oil
Gibbons division, and were handsomely re-
pulsed.
Wilson's cavalry-one division-caught an
infantry division that same evening moving on
Burnside's flank, and drove them home again.
It Is mentioned, somewhat rs O matter OF
course, that Wilson had little before fought
and routed the Rebel Gordon. Two very good
cavalry fights for one afternoon. 't
The net result Of the last three days OF which
We have accounts-Wednesday to Friday-is
that Gen. Grant has carried his army forward
and to the left, beating the enemy in every en-
counter, and on Friday held position so close
10 the Chickahominy az to make it doubtful
whether Lee would deem it best to fight again
north of That stream. The ground is Obstinate
" contested, but the gain is steadily on our

Of war conventions, and not the least important
Of them gathered there on Saturday. 1t was
TO do honor to Gen. Grant, and its enthusiasm
and numbers showed the grateful appreciation
in which tho people hold tho services no has
already rendered to the country. All the pre-
cedng conventions in Union Square have been
called to excite, as well as direct, tho popular
enthusiasm, to assure the Government Of the
popular support, and to arouse the people to the
necessity of filling up the armies. That on
Saturday also had these aims, but they were
secondary and less imperative, while the uni.
versal feeling was that We had, at last,
at the head Of our armies, General
TO whom it was safe and proper to offer a
peoples thanks, though his work is yet un-
finished. That no such meeting, with such a
purpose has been held heretofore, is al evidence
that tho popular judgment has been cool and
patient; that careful reticence renders this
grateful ovation the more significant now that
tho public judgment decides that the time has
come for such recognition of all that Cen.

ton than is due to the calmly expressed con-
victions of every hearty wcll-wiSher of the
National cause. We purpose to act with the
great body of our fellow Unionists in the
approaching canvass; but we are in no
hurry to enter upon that canvass. Letthe coun-
try see and feel that we Unonsts seek success
for our country's sake, moro than for that
Of our party. Let it realize that our hearts
are with our gallant brethren, who are writing
our country's history with steel and fame
on the bloody fields of Virginia and Georgia.
The triumph of the National arms should be our
first aspiration; after that, every thing else
in Its order. Live the Republic!
