The Times expresses astonishment at
the manner in which the Federal bonds

Reams' Station to continue the destruc-
tion of that road and had effsctually sue.
ceeded in that object to the distance Of
some ten miles without encounteriug very
much opposition. Yesterday morning,
however. the rebels massed Early's corps
and two divisions Of Longstreets corps
in front of our lines and commenced skir.
mishing at very early hour.
About 8 o'clock they charged our line
in front of the 81 division of the 9th
corps and were handsomely repulsed, al
though they fought with the utmost de-
termination Almost as soon as they
were beaten back they we're again rallied

repeated four times, and each time they
were punished severely. but on returning
the fifth time they succeeded in driving

The result of the battle is, we have lo.

The Tribune's special sums up the re
suit of he fighting on the Weldon Roa'
as follows:
First. that tie enemy we're successful
after repeated aud impetuous assaults, il
compelling the abandonment BY on
forces of the railroad below Realms Sta
tion. -
Second, that although attacking in vast

Third, that the enemy's loss in kille
and wounded must have exceeded ours b
twice the number, and iually, by an over
