made many such good shots. The officer was

TIE SITUATION.

The engagement of yesterday announced in

may be regarded as the third OF the series of
heavy battles which ara to determine the fate
of Richmond. Grant, since crossing the Pa
munkey, has been gradually drawing his lines
nearer to the city's Notifications, and in SO
doing has twice been heavily and unsuccess-
fully attacked by Lee. On both those occa.
sions the rebel effort was to drive Grant from
positions the command Of which enabled him
to advance his lines still further, and in each
the result was the repulse of the rebels and the
failure OF their efforts. On this occasion Grant
made the attack, and had driven the rebels ont

which he states he has driven the enemy back
are, we hear from other sources-parties

hold their position within fifty yards Of them,
it is it strikes us, quite safe to trust Grant to
drive the rebels from them In very brief time
So far success has Invariably crowned his
strategy and energy when so situated.
