MARIETTA, June 27.-About 10 o'clock this
morning. the enemy, consisting in part Of Scho-
fields, Blair's, Palmer's and Logan's corps,
attempted 10 gain possession of the ortc on
our left centre, held by Cheatham and Cleburue.
They marched de6antly up ia seven lines Of battle
Our troops reserved their FIRE until they approach
ed within few yards Of tho brOast-wofks, when
they opened with grape, canister and ustatry,
and created great havoc in their ranks. The ire
Was SO rapid aud destructive that the enemy could
not rally. and driven back with the loss Of bo-
tween $40 and 900 men. We captured about
100 prisoners
Our loss, owing to our men being protected by
breastworks, is very small
MARIETTA, June 2S-The severe punishment
inflicted upon the enemy yesterday by Hardee and
Loring, rendered them very quiet to-day. One Of
our officers, in authority called to the Yankee COM
mander that, as an act Of humanity we would
cease firing aud give them time to carry of their
wounded, as they we're in dagger of being burned
alive, from the woods being set on fire, which was
done after the action.
In front of 'Cleburne's division alone, the YAM
KEGS lost over 1000, while in front Of Chcatham it
much greater.
Our loss was saall-l60 will cover IL.
A sergeant in Jackson's brigade seized a she'll
while the fuse was burning and threw it FROM the
pit in which it fell. He was promoted on the
field by Gen. Jackson to lieutenancy, but be
mOdestiy declined it. Sergeant w. J. Walthc,
company l, 10Th Tennessee regiment, Vaugbn's
Brigade leaped over the breastwprks and seized
the standard presented by Gen. Bufordto the 9Th
Illinois regiment, wrested il from It's bearer aud
brought if triumphantly to camp, for which daring
act Gen. Hardee presented it to the gallant SER
geant. 1t was inscribed Belmont, Union City and
Stone River.
The enemy made desperate attempt to take
keuesaw mountain. He attacked our works in
columns of picked troops, the heroes Of Missionary
ridge, but Lorng's corps drove them back with a
loss estimated at $500.

nDr A gentleman recently from Richmond tells
a very interesting little incident which evinces
something of the state of the public regard for
General Lee, and his thoughtful kindness to our
sick and wounded soldiers, During General Lees
recent attack Of illness he went down to Richmond
to recruit his health While in the cars he ex.
pressed the desire for bottle OF port wine. At
ter his arrival his wish was talked of on the streets,
and in less than three hours three hundred bottles
of port were sent to him. Of the number he re-
served one for his use, and sent the ren,aiu-
der 70 the hsspitals for wounded soldiers.
