FROM THE FRONT,

The mail steamer Dictator arrived here this
morning at 6H O'Clock from City Point. She
reports all quiet since the fight at Reams' Sta
ton up to the hour at which she left, (yester-
day morning at 10 o'clock,) with the exception
of the usual picket firing and an occasional
artillery duel.
On Sunday an attack on our pontoon bridge
on the Appomattox, at Broadway Landing,
was anticipated. Two brigades Of colored
troops and several batteries were dispatched
TO that point on double quick, but no rebels
made their appearance.
The Dictator brought up the 5th and 9th New
Jersey regiments, their term OF service having
expired. These men have seen hard service,
and are much reduced in numbers

Correspondence Of the Associated Pressl
A letter from the Army Of the Potomac
dated August 18th, evening, says to-day not q
gun was fred from daylight to dark and up to
this hour, p. m, there have been very few re-
ports. 1t was the most quietday we have had
in four weeks.
Our loss in Thursdays fight is ascertained
to be about 1900 men in the aggregate and nine
guns-four of Browns Rhode Island, four of
Sleeper's Massachusetts and one of Nc Knights
battery of light artillery.
The statement is made by request, that 1t
was the 1e7th Pennsylvania Veteran Volun-
teer Infantry instead of the 10Th New York,
as reported in some Of the newspapers, which
captured the battle flag of the 18th North Caro-
lima In the fight Of the 18th, and the party who
made the prize was the color. bearer of the
regiment, private Huttenstein. OF Com pany G.
An English gentleman, Edwin Wallace,
swan the Appomattox last night and escaped
to our lines. He has resided in Petersburg
since the war began, and represents the pros
poets OF the Confederacy as becoming more
gloomy than ever. The leaders are rendered
desperate because Of the miscarriage of their
scheme to draw General Grant hence by iu-
vading Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Wallace lost his wife and child in Peters,
burg, short time ago. They were killed by
the explosion Of one of our shells, which en-
tered his house.
Three deserters also got in last night. Thew
state that they were paid off and discharged
short time ago from Col Crawford's (UnIon)

with seventeen others, by General Weller's
cavalry. and forced into the rebel ranks, after
being robbed of all their money and clothing
They have no idea OF what became OF the other
seventeen. They were separated at Lynch
burg, whittier they were brought from the
place OF their capture IN irons. They seem
very indignant at the treatment they have re-
ceived, and were anxious to take the oath OF
allegiance,
