priety of selecting for party candidates
such active and fearless importers of
their principles as young Jones and
Hampstead, recently captured while fight

Ii would certainly be more creditable
to the party to honor these gallant mar

AFTERNOON DISPATCHES.


New York, June g.
The Herald's 9th corps correspondent
says in the battle of Monday, IT 8 p. N !.
the enemy assaulted our line. Il was !
general and sudden attack. They ad
vanced in two lines Of bs,tle and heavy
skirmish line. Simultaneous with their
advance they opened volley Of musketry
and threw solid shot and shell from the
angry mouths Of score or more of can
non. Firm and unshsken stood our men.
The rebels shot too high. Our men coolly
waited to return the FIRE, and it was .
most murderous volley. The assaultiDg
Q ,lumu vas staggered and fell back. Our
artillery, which had been in position,
opened 10 response 10 the enemy 3 cannon.
Assault after assault was made BY the
desperate foe. but each time our troops
hurled him back. Upon General Cav.
ford's division the assaults were more
repeated and fierce. The enemy sought
to turn his left, but each time we're hand
sonely repu'sed, and more than special
glory was won by meeting and repelling
these assaults. The Pennsylvania Re-
serves behaved maeni6ceutly. In the di.
vision and holding the extreme left was
General L ckwood and his troops, most
OF them for the first time under FIRE.
They behaved like veterans. Colonel
CittiDg's brigade Of heavy artillery. yet
novices 10 the field, stood their ground
with the resolu,eness of veterans. The
brigade alone captured 80 prisoners.
The contest closed with our having
driven the enemy, as stated above. and
occupying the battle ground.
Our loss is zoo killed. wounded and
missing. Among the killed was Msj,r
Eiken, commanding the Gath Michigan
regiment
The enemy's loss is much heavier,
rrbably l.50o.
We took 500 prisoners, among them
ten commissioned officers.
Among iaeir dead is said to be found
q rebel General and two C,Ionels.
Prisoners also say the whole OF Ewells
corps was engaged against US; the corps,
they say, howe,er, is commanded by
Early. and General E~ell is in command
OF the army, Lee being sick 10 Richmond
A rumor has prevailed that Lee was
wounded at SpcttsyIvania c H., but is
not authenticated. There can te no
doubt, however, of the fact that he does
not command the rebel army At present.
