CINCINNATI. Aug. N.-The storm of yes
terday afternoon was very severe. Rain
fell in torrents, accompanied by thunder
and lightning. The indianapolis and Gin
cinnati train which left here at half-past
four yesterday afternoon, was blown from
the track thirteen miles west of Lawrence
burg, and the cars tumbled down the en-
bankment twelve feet. No particulars
known; but it is reported that from twenty
to thirty persons were wounded; none re-
ported killed. The train contained a num-
Der of delegates ell route to the Chicago
convention.
LOUISVILLE, Aug. 26.-Heavy intermt-
tent rains all day, accompanied by startling
peels of thunder and the most vivid lighG-
ming, which shattered the steeple of Rev.
Mr.. Danbert's church and injured several
other buildings. A larger quantity of wa
ter is supposed to have fallen than ever be-
fore in a single day. The train from Nash
vile was delayed an hour and half, COM

The Attack ON the Second Corps.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27-Passengers by
the mail boat from City Point report that
on Thursday division of the Second corps.
in the vicinity of Ream's Station, on the
Weldon railroad, were attacked by a large
force of rebels, supposed to b. Gen. Hills
entire corps, and were compelled to fall
back, which they did gradually, disputing,
however. every inch of the ground, fight
ing most of the distance hand to hand. At
2 o'clock the fight was still progressing,
but our men had gained fine position, and
movements were being made calculated to
put the enemy on the retrograde in turn.
1t Is reported that we lost three batteries,
, including Sleeper's celebrated Massachu-
sets battery, the Captain of which was
wounded early in the day in the right arm,
but who most gallantly kept the field until
the afternoon. when he became weak from
the loss of blood,
Later information of the fighting on
Thursday, in which Gen. Hancock was en-
gagged with the enemy at Ream's Station, Is
to the effect that about o'clock he was re-
intorced from the 9th corps, and the enemy,
after making several desperate assaults
upon our lines, was badly repulsed, and re-
treated, leaving his dead and wounded in
our hands. 1t is also reported that we re-
captured the guns taken by the rebels
earlier In the day. =.
The rebels lost terribly in the battle of
Thursday, even more, 1t is estimated, than
in the repulse of Sunday. c1A
1t is stated unofiicially that at the time
of the attack on Gen. Hancock he was en-
gagged in the work OF destruction on the,Wel-
don Railroad, and his men being scattered
In detachments along considerable line,
the rebels were able to do some damage
before our forces could be consolidated
The rebels made capture of some guns, 1t
Is said, by the aid OF their sharpshooters
concealed In corn field, who shot the hor-
ses and men and then made rush upon the
guns, dragging them within their skirlnish
lines; but it is doubtful If they got any off
the field These batteries, as organized,
consist of only four guns to the battery. aud
consequently If the rebels had succeeded In
carrying all the four batteries they are 70.

YAzoo, Aug. PA communication dated
Blockading Squadron, Mobile Bay, August
l6, says naval reconnaissance toward Mo-
bile on the 10Th found formidable but not
insurmountable distractions. Besides bat
teries, rams and sunken vessels, there is
very strong casemated fort mounting ten
guns. In all places between the batteries
and vessels, and on both shores, piles are
driven, the tops of which are shaved off just
below the surface of the water, and have
heavy iron bolts IN them, sharpcned at the
upper end so as to tear off the bottoms of
boats passing over them. Men were seen
working on two ram-looking contrivances;
the wharves were crowded with guuboats,
and among them four English-built crafts,
probably blockade runners. The streets of
the city were deserted. The rebels are COM
pletely cut off rearward.
The general health of the army is very
good. The fleet were still pounding at Fort
Morgan with considerable effect. No cas-
ualtieS on our side.
Information from Rio Grande says the
rebel Gen. Ford occupied Brownsville two
days after our forces evacuated, and pro-
ceeded to rent out the property of Union
lists, but the Mayor of the city continued to
exercise his functions. Ford has only a
small force, and Immediately prepared to
make rapid retreat if necessary.
