The Herald's Hilton Head specials say
that the exchange Of prisoners up the Ss-
vannsh river has suddenly ceased, the
rebels being unable longer to deliver our

expect to secure important advantages at

A FIGHT.
The Richmond Wing of the 9Th learns
by an official telegram, received last night,
that General Wheeler had inflicted Rnosh.
er severe blow upon the enemy.
enemys and Kilpatrick's Cavalry, attack.
cd Wheeler in strong position. They
cUme up boldly to attack, and made sever.

Wheeler's men who fought, and though
largely outnumbered, maintained thsil
ground. The came dispatch states tha
the enemy lost heavily. It is reported tbs
The locality of this fight was not given 70,

Sunday forenoon. One corps of tn,
Fitzpatrick was wounded.
We have reason to believe that Sher
mad's army have united and are march

lantic coast, or southwest of Millen.
I'VE have reason to anticipate battl
north or northwest of Savannah ere tn
close Of the present week.
