New YORK, June 4.-The Herald's cor
respondent from the headquarters of the
cavalry corps, gives detail of the cavalry
engagement on Monday, at Cold Harbor.
The engagement was br ought on by both
parties attempting to establish line OF
pickets. Generals Denim and Merritt went
in with Zeal and drove the rebels to their
first works. They dismounted three-fourths
Of their men, leaving the other in charge of
the horses, and on foot'pressed through the
woods and across ravine and creek, and
over the next hill into the woods. As they
were going up the hill, WilistOn opened
fire upon them. Having reached the woods,
the enemy made another stand supported
by reserves. Merritt and Denim MAINTAIN.
ed their ground stubbornly and contested
every inch until the lines were within
rods Of each other, neither yielding, and
both suffering great slaughter.
Custer with his demeraGzing seven-shoot
ers, was now ordered up to aid in running
the rebels out of the woods.
Sheridan also came on the field where he
could observe matters and give directions.
Custer dismounted his men who moved
lorWdTu at uOuUle lulCh duu III ieoS tnah
l5 minutes the rapid crack, crack, of their
Spencer rifles was heard. The lst New
York dragons charged in with them, and
the enemy doubtless thought ten thousand
men at least, had reinforced their oppo,
nents, for they He'd two or three miles,
leaving their dead and wounded on the field.
Torbitt followed them up, and spent the
night miles in advance.
Another fight occurred on Tuesday, as
Merritt's brigade was pressing towards Cold
Harbor, in the afternoon, they came upon
the enemy's cavalry reinforced by three
regiments Of North Carolina infantry.
Merritt pitched into them with his regulars
and was strongly supported by Denim and
Custar. The fight was even more desper-
ate than yesterdays. Sheridan galloped to
the front but found Torbitt whipping them
beautifully. This action gave us Cold Har-
Dor.
If Lee is at Mechanicsvile as is SUPPOSED
it very nearly turns his right flank, great
point gained.

American says, gentleman who left the
front at 9 o'clock Friday morning, repre-
sents the attack reported by Grant, as hav
ing opened with furious cannonading along
the whole line; cannonading could be
heard as it progressed down the Peninsula
One important fact reported by our inform.
ant is, that the army is in the b"st posi-
BILE condition, and spirits, They have nev
er in any previous campaign been as well
supplied. There was abundant provisions
constantly going forward, The whole army
worships Grant, and say he is the only man
who has given them chance to light
The belief was universal, both among the
troops and the residents Of the country in
the vicinity Of Richmond, that the rebel
capital must fall. There had been no at,
tempted raid on the White House, as re-
ported, and consequently the rumored cap
ture of Fitz Hugh Lee and his cavalry was
unfounded.
The W White House presents scene OF
activity, unprecedented even during Nc
Clellan's campaign.
New YORK, June 4.-The Tribune's spe'
cial dated June 4th says: -
Sheridan's cavalry the day previous drove
the rebels down the Mechanicsville pike, to
within 5 miles of Richmond. Our entire
lines were considerably advanced and the
impression prevails that Lee has Withdrawn
bis main force within the inner defences OF
Richmond. His losses the past two days
must have been severe, and largely in ex-
cess of ours.
Contrabands report the citizens of Rich
mond in quite fright. :,
The enemy left all their dead and wound
ed in front Of Warren, and the sight was
sad and sickening.
June 2,-Yesterday the 5th corps and
Baldy Smiths forces, made heavy charge
carving the first line of the eAemy's works,
and taking coo or 800 prisoners. Another
hour later the rebels made tremendous as
saults, and were frightfully slaughtered
Hancock also repulsed similar attacks and
inflicted severe loss. The fighting was des'
perate. The enemy's loss must have been
2O00 or 1900.
Burnside's corps showed equal valor in
repulsing an attack

side of Richmond, and that its result must
decide whether the rebel capital can be car
ried by coup de main or whether it is des
tined to become the object OF a summers
siege.
The Herald's correspondents from the
Headquarters of the Army of the Potomac
under date Of May 3lst says:
All that was done yesterday MONDAY
amounted to nothing more than q series OF
attempts to ascertain the enemy's position
A Washington special to the Herald says
Gen. Barnard, accompanied by number
of engineers, left for Grants army on Fri
day.
The Tribune special from the Headquar-
ters of the 9Th Corps, II miles North of
Richmond, 10 p. M, May 81, says:
The line Of rebel rife pits has been car.
ried in the wing in front of Hancock.
There was desultory firing all day by
Wright's corps who are in very close prox'
unity to the rebels. Both parties wish the
other to commence the attack.
Capt. Platt, Quartermaster Of the 9th
corps with 5 men and wagon was captur.
ed on Sunday night.
Supplies will reach the corps tomorrow
