Yesterday Afternoons Report.
FROE FHE BATTLE FIELD,
WAaHINarnN- Nav l


All was quiet along our lines until late
Monday evening", when it was thought the
rebels were falling back, or that Lee had
already gone to Richmond TO meet Smith,
who was reported close to that place
Therefore q move was determined on, and
at m, the entire line moved forward.
The right crossed q branch Of the river Po,
and drove 8 light battery of that was
posted TO defend 8 small bridge.
Wsrren's front and HsncOoks left had q
lively engagement with the rebels, who
threw shot and shells from battery in
the woods. The enemy we're finally driven
back about three-fourths Of mile, and at
dark the firing had ceassd.
It is believed that Longstreet's corps
was the only one in our front, and that he
was left to impede our progress, while Lee
was attending to Smith.
A rebel cavalry brigade is reported to
have been seen on the north side Of the
Rspidsn, on Monday, near Fredericks-
burg.
The Worlds special says Lees entire
army was on Monday on the south bank Of
Glody river, between that and the river
Po, his right stretched nearly to the Fred
erioksburg and Richmond railroad, which
he seemed desirous Of reaching to obtain
supplies or insure his safety.
We have taken more prisoners in Lees
retreat than during Thursday and Fridsy's
battles.
All information in Grants possession is
Of most favorable character, showing

The Times Washington special has tn
following:
1t is reported that Grant has fanke,
Lee both on the right and left
A terrible battle occurred yesterday
Lee was driven ssToss the South Annl
river. Grant is still in close pursuit.
A special to the Tribune, dated ct head
quarters of the Army Of the Potion g., MsJ
10, says:
Our loss in the battles Of Sunday snG
yesterday will probably smounttO ct least
$500.
Generals Grant and Meade were at the
front last night, personally superintend-
ing Hsncock's attack.
After dispatching cur special messen-
ger last evening, a heavy osnnonsding
was opened on the rebels occupying Spott-
syl7anis Court House. Under cover Of
this fire Hancock crossed the little
River Po, and pushed the enemy beyond
the town.
News reaches us this morning that COM
municstion is opened between US and
Washington by way of Belle Plain and
Fredericksburg. A mail is just in from
Washington by this way. Our wounded
and prisoners are also to be sent this way
We now hold about FIVE Thousand pris-
oners.
General Morris, Of the 9Th Corps, who
was standing beside General Ssdgwick
when he was killed. was wounded, but not
seriously.
By q Richmond paper found on pris.
oner, it is STATED that the body Of General
Wsdsworth was buried by them
at the Wilderness. This would
seem to ietermine the certainty of his
death. It also states that Batter was
within thirteen miles Of Richmond.
Our army is pressing Lees retreating
forces upon all sides, while our cavalry
under Sheridan have been out performing
prOdigous service.
Our troops sustain this hard marching
with wonderful endurance and sre in good
spirits. For long time after our Will
derness fight it was difficult 10 make the
men believe that our movement was not
retreat, but when sscertsining beyond
question that We we're advancing their en-
thusissm knew no bounds, and they made
the woods ring with cheers for Grant,
Meade, Burnside and everybody.
Our wounded have suffered severely,
and but for humane and tender regard for
their condition we should undoubtedly ere
his been upon the south banks Of the
Anna. Forward still.

WASHINGTON, May ll-12 P. N.
The fact that General Grant has ordered
large amount Of supplies for his army,
and has made arrangements to ensure
their transportation, has given birth to 3
rumOr, eagerly caught up by secessiOnists
here, that he has been compelled to fall
back to Fredericksburg, which is untrue.
The Navy Department is still without
official intelligence concerning the recent
fight between our iron clsds and the rebel

The Londsu Time. on III, mexican Umpire.

Tke Lendsn Times on tbs Mexican Empire.
The London Times, which has never me-
elected an opportunity to denounce and
msllgn the North, from the beginning Of
our civil war, comments upon the recent
resolution Of the House Of Representatives,
on Mexican affairs, in manner quite
Characteristic. It regards the failure of
the resolution to pass in the Senate as in
dicatiug retreat from the high ground Of
the Monroe doctrine. The Times, hoWev-
er, very much mistakes that silence Of the
sensts. The people Of all political par
ties in this country feel that the conquest
Of Mexico BY Napoleon, is an insult to the
Republic. The Government now waging
terrific war against rebellion, is not dis
posed ct present however, to burden them
selves with foreign war, but when the
time comes the doctrine will be triumph
antly Vindicsted. The Times is obliged to
admit that such Is the tsnaeify Nth vkiek
