REBEL CRUELTIEs TO PRISONERS

The people of the North have been slow to
believe that they are at war with race esSeii-
TALLY barbarous. Submitting for the last forty
years to the rule of Southern leaders, and de-
bauched for more than that period by Pro-
Slavery politics, we open our eyes reluctantly TO
the fact of our own long subseryiency and OF
the brutal character that belongs to those who
have guided the Government and controlled
the policy of tho country. 1t is only when
taught by the savage excuses into which acruel
race whose passions are stimulated by open war
has hurried, that we discern the real influence
Of Slavery upon men and women whose ances-
tors eighty years ago were inspired with the
same instincts of freedom as ourselves.

There are dispatches from Gen. Grant dated
10 a. H., June /, and a. M, June 2. The On
gagements May 81 were mainly of cavalry
Sheridan having attacked and routed Fitzhugl
Lee at Cold Harbor, while Wilson on the Other
wing served Young in the same way. Both
hanks of the army, therefore, were well clear
of the enemy's cavalry. The results OF the two
actions are such as to lead Gen. Grant to push
forward his infantry to the ground which the
cavalry had won, and Wright was ordered to
hold Cold Harbor That point is near Gaines
Mills, within three miles Of the Chickahominy,
and so far down the stream that it begins to
look as if Grant were extending his lines eaSterly
and southerly with a view to crossing the Chick
ahominv near the line of the Richmond and
York Railroad, and so turning by a flank move
ment, tactical rather than strategic, the present
position Of Lee on the north bank Of the river.
By yesterdays dispatch it is announced that
the 9th Corps having occupied the position
which Sheridan won at Cold HarbOr, was or
dered to attack on Wednesday, about in the
afternoon, and that the enemys works were
carried and held During the night, Lee sought
by repeated assaults to regain the ground he had
lost, but to 10 purpose.
From the neighborhood Of Buffers command
the news is that a Rebel iron-cad came down
the river from Richmond at three in the morn
ing of June !, Wednesday, and attacked Admiral
Lees feet, but after an engagement Of two
hours was driven back. If this demonstration
were prelude to an effort to drive Gen. Butler
from his position, it has failed in such way as
to show that Bermuda Hundred is likely to
be held permanently.
