FROM PETERSRIyRo

PETERSBURG, August lS.-About two O'Clock this
morning our batteries along the whole line in ftont
OF this place opened fire upon the enemy, who re-
sponded feebly.
The firing was kept up for an hour and hall.
when all subsidized into usual quiet on our side No
casualties are reported. The enemy's cavalry are
making some demonstration ON our right this morn
ing. lsIcoyp prspArcHl
PETERSBURG, August ia force Of the Fifth
corps Of the enemy, assisted by cavalry, broke
through cavalry lines on our right this morning,
and succeeded in reaching the Weldon railroad just
above the six-mile station, tearing UP part Of the
railroad-some say as much as two miles II. H.
Walkers Virginia and Daviss Mississippi brigades
coming upon the raiders, sharp fight ensued, the
result OF which is not fully ascertained
One hundred and ffty-eight prisoners, including
eight officers, captured in The fight, have arrived
here The enemy Is in retreat, by latest advices.-
The prisoners say the had two-fold object to
draw troops from our front in ORDER if possible to
charge our works. and, secondly, to break the road

The ENEMY's OPINION GENERAL BPAGG.-
The newspaper generals in the United and the Con-
tederate States do not to agree in their esti-
mates of General Bragg. The correspondent Of the
New York Times with Sherman's army thus writes
of general who is generally held up as the author,
and, in most cases, the nisher of all our disasters
will inform you of one thing certain in connec-
ton with Hood. There is person named Bragg at
work. His tactics cannot be mistaken He pounced
moving i'll column at Perryville nearly annhlated
it, and ran off at night lie made Rosecrans think
he was in Murfreesboro' awaiting attack, and in
the night crossed Stone river, marched his army
three miles, massed his left grabbed three thousand
men and twenty-four cannon from McCook, and
then pitched in and whipped our right, killing and
wonndng more than two-fifths of those who avoided
capture, and drove back half Of army four miles
At Clickamauga he again attacked our army
moving iii columns, with what result is well known
This same dodge WAS attempted the 20th and
I'D OF July, but upon each occasion cur army was
IN line Of battle The attack upon Logan on the
18th ultno did not far fall short. Had the enehy
withdrawn his skirmsh line but few moments
sooner the Fifteenth corps would have found itself
IN great Peril. As it was, as 1 have informed you
IN my account of the battle, the enemy all bat
struck us in the flank and rear.
1t Is an opinion long ago expressed, that General
Bragg is tho best man the enemy had in COM
mand of his army i'll the Southwest This fact is
the army despise Bragg because he is IA soldier He
is strict dsciplinaran. Had he not been, the re-
bel Army of Tennessee, composed of u lot of young
who were inclined to do as their fancy dictated,
would have been long ago destroyed by its own ele-
ments Of insubordination.

CONFEDERATE STATES DISTRICT CouRT.-The busi-
ness of this court yesterday opened by the rem
dition of Judge ay burtons decision in the ha5eas
corpus case of Robert F. Hobbs, who sues out for
exemption from military service the ground that
he Is Marylander and has been exled from his
home in consequence of sentiments entertained by
him adverse to the prosecution of the by the
United States Government. Judge Halyburton sus-
tanned the grounds which were argued by the petit
toner's counsel, General Humphrey Marshall, and
discharged him from custody. He took the position
lied from home account of their political senti-
ments, they could not be legally required to take up
arms in defence of country which was at war with
the nation from which they had fled; and the appl-
cation Of Mr.. Hobbs being based upon this ground,
he had no other recourse than to set him at liberty
Judge Halyburtons decision was made orally, and
occupied only few minutes in its delivery. 1t is
very important one, from the fact that will effect
the status of all Marylanders other refugees from
the enemy's territory, who may claim exemption
from the Confederate service on the same ground.

der writ of habeaS corpus, release from Castle
