Headquarters Army Potomac, J
May 20.
My dispatch Of 70 p. m. yesterday in
formed you Of the attack made last eve
ming upon the right wing Of our line and
the handsome manner in which the rebels
were driven back. IL was made by the
whole Of Evell's corps.
The enemy left Of the vicinity Of Spott-
sylvania G. H. about I p. n. yesterday
made . detour to the west, crossed the
Ny, and. about s o'clock, struck the
Fredericksburg road in the rear Of our
right flank, within three quarters of
mile Of the headquarters Of Geus. Meade
and Grant The only troops on the
ground 1t the time were . couple of
regiments Of Tyler's division Of heavy ar
tillery, never before under ere. Tyler
soon brought up the renainder Of his
forces, and met the rebel attack, driving
the enemy back into the woods. Hers
the rebels had formed their line of battle.
Tyler felt rather appre6ansivsof tho work
before him, considering the rawness OF
his troops. When once fairly under Ere,
however, they showed great bravery
Their loss is quite heavy, more severe than
reported By mo in my dispatch last night,
and will probably resch 600 killed and
wounded. The rsbsls gave way in con-
fusion, scattering through the woods.
The honor Of the repulss Of the rebels
rests exclusively with Tylsr's heavy artil-
lery division, though Birnsy's division Of
the I'd corps, and Crawiord's Of the 9Th,
afterwards sent supports, enabling Tyler
TO withdraw after driving the enemy sev.
eral miles of and clearing the valley Of
the Ny.
The confusion OF the rebels seems 70
have been very great, the major portion Of
Rhodes division scattering il the woods.
Three hundred and City Of them were
picked up in the woods during the night,
and have just been brought in to head
quarters.
The division of raw troops felt i'm
mensely tickled at their success, and a.
though their loss has been very heavy,
they felt that the diminution Of their mum.
bers was fully made up By the increase Of
morale.
