Once started 10 a deep river it is hard to

ter the l0xl2 law dispensary had been
swept, after chairs had been set in a row
against the side of the office, and sundry
whipped guilds of tobacco, and mutilated
cigar stumps bad been kicked under the
stove, there was a wooden step on the
stairs, and vigorous knock at the door

Of law duly elected to dispense the favors

A stout woman entered. She had on
a short wooden dress, wooden sole shoes,
spotted red cheeks, black hair, and eyes
that snapped like the lock of shot gun.
In Portuguese accent, and in the worst
possible English she said:
'You law man ?

Just then a stout French half breed
entered The room. He was unable TO

either scared or bashful. The Judge
saw at once that there was some marri-
age to come of, and said to the woman
who stood with compressed lips watching
the Justice and the door.

The Battle on Friday.
IT WAS MEANT TO BE DECISIVE.

1T WAS MEANT TO BE DECISIVE
According to the account OF Mr.. Swim
ton, reporter of tine New York Times, it
was the intention of Gen. Grant to make
the battle of Friday decisive of the cam
paign, bot it was not successful, and the
great losses were large price to pay for
the slight gain in position. 1t will be
known as the second battle of Cold Har-
bor Our loss was between 1000 and
5000, distributed among the corps az fol-
lows: 18th corps, say 1000; I'd corps
400; 9Th corps, 1000; 5:b and 9th
say 600 to 1000 The object OF the ac-
ton was to force the passage of the
Chickahominy, on the north side OF which
and covering the roads to Richmond, the
rebels had planted themselves in forti-
fed line. What we have done is to feel
this line by vigorous attack, in which,
though gaining some temporary success
ses, and at one or two points actually
carrying the enemy's works, we have, on
the whole, reached the conclusion that
any victory that could here be won must
cost too much in its purchase.
Mr.. Swinton writes: Into ten mortal
minutes this morning was crowded an
age of action. Ten minutes of the fig
men: men call time, and yet that scant
space decided a battle There are a
thousand details, ten thousand episodes,
but the essential matter is this, that the
first rush of advance carried our whole
front butt up against a line of works,
which we were unable to break through,
or, breaking through, were unable to hold.
Conceive of this in the large-the fierce
onslaught amid deafen;ng volleys Of
musketry and the thunder of artillery,
and the wild, mad yell of battle, and see
the ranks mowd down, and the lines
break here and there, and the sullen, OBJ
stinate retreat, every inch contested, and
we shall then be able to descend to some
of the points of action as they individus
alize themselves along the line.
Not till the eplendid attack of Han
cocks corps had been made. not till after
its bood-bought victory had been wrest-
ed from our bands, was he or any man
in this army aware of the supreme i'm
portance of the position this morning
carried and lost. The key-poirt in the
battle of Gains Mills, two years ago, it
is strange and Notifying that no ore
should have appreciated its value. This
position is a bald bill, named Watts Hill y
dominating the whole battle ground, and
covering the angle Of the Dispatch road.
Along this ridge the rebel works formed
salient, and in front of it was a sunktn
cad. OF this road Hancock got posses
ion, and the brigades of Miles and
Brooks actually struck and carried the
york directly on the salient. Had we
ED this point we would have had a po-
ilion whence the entire rebel line might
ave been enfiladed; and I think it is
ot too much to say that the day would
ave been ours, and Lee pushed across /
he Chckahominy. Had we even known
n advance its commanding Importance,
cry different disposiliO ms for attack
you'd have been made, we would have
