GiImore's Attack ON Petersburg
NEW YonK, June 12-The 7rtbunes
correspondent with Buffers army says
Of the expedition against Petersburg:
There were 400 picked horsemen
under Kautz and between 5,VOV ana
1000 infantry under Gilmore, al under
command Of Gilmore. The infantry
were within one and half miles Of
Petersburg, and Gilmore sent dispatch
that he heard Kautz's guns away 70 the
left, bat had had no communication
with him. Gilmore had instructions 10
advance on Petersburg and engage the
snemy II was immaterial whether be
succeeded or not, the real object being
TO divert attention from Kautz, who was
10 dash into the city from the opposite
side, burn the Appomatic bridge, destroy
stores, supplies and depots, and do all be
could to annoy the enemy. A signal
glass showed Kautz was fulfilling his
mission, as the cavalry was seen attack
ing upon the further side, and driving
the enemy before them. This was in the
entrenchments on the outskirts. Avail.
ing himself Of bis instructions to return
tonight, he sent back word that he found
the works quite formidable and more
thoroughly garrisoned than anticipated
and he had not deemed it prudent TO at
tack, and therefore had retired half a
mile, where be bad formed line Of bat
tie. Meanwhile Gen Kantz had passed
the FIRST line Of entrenchments with his
cavalry, and was fighting in the city, ex-
psoting the infantry to assist him. The
rebels seeing Gilmore's force withdrawn
turned their attention to Kautz, pressing
him closely and capturing a three inch
gun. At this the cavalry pouEeed upor
q twelve FOUNDER brass piece, which
they seized aud brought away-still NJ
sign Of the diversion in their favor b,
the infantry. To attempt accomplishing
the work assigned him would be mad
ness, and Gen. Kautz returned.
