Hancock sends werd to Meade that he has

Further particulars reaching us Of the splen-
did victory achieved by Hancock yesterday
morning show that it was one OF the most
brilliant achievements Of the war.
During Wednesday night Hancock changed
his entire position, his operations being con-
cealed under cover of the rain, darkness and
fog of the night, and a. o'clock yesterday
morning he gained position from which he
made dash upon the line Of intrenchments
occupied by the rebel Major Gen. Ned John
sons division Of Hills corps, complete
ly surprised the enemy, and captured
the entire division, (Johnson's.) including
johnson himself, rebel Gen'l Stuart, another
rebel Gen. johnson, and some thirty officers Of
lesser degree. Also, a large number Of small
arms, as we'll as thirty six guns.
The rebels were taken completely by sur
prise, and though they at first offered dsspe-
rate resistance, soon gave way before the ir.
res,stible force of Hancock's bayonet charge.
This sort Of sudden night attack has been the
forte OF the rebels, and they seemed quite un-
prepared to be treated to such an effective dose
OF the same strategy. The fighting ground was
southwest Of Spottsylvania Court. House, some
distance this side OF Po creek.
