ERADoUARTERs ARMY, FIFTEEN MILES
FROM RICHMOND, ls NJ, May 30.-Yes terday,
our forces occupied a very strong position, our
right resting on the Pamunkey and our left on
TolOpctomy creek, being formed in q half circle
Along the entire line formidable earth works
had been erected, and the line con sidered i'm
pregnable. But this line was abandoned yes
terday after noon, and the army advanced in
line of battle several miles in north westerly
direction, toward the Virginia Central rail-
road.
Our right, the sixth corps, rests on the Pa.
raunkey; then the second corps, and next the
fifth corps, forming the extreme left, the ninth
corps being in reserve.
Lee is understood TO hold strong line from
Hanover Court House to Atlees Station, on the
Virginia Central Railroad. 1t Will be re-
marked from this formation of our own and

from our artillery and infantry fire.

adverse elimination in military affairs. The
Cleveland Convention, designed evidently to
place him In a position to avail himself OF any
such contingency, has, however, made it plain
that his political supporters number but two
or three numerically weak odds and ends Of
eHete factions-sueklers for giving the rebel
lion the aid of constitu tional and legal quirks
in its work OF destroying the constitution and
lave; negro worshippers, who acknowledge
no interests or rights under the Government
save those OF the black man; politicians, weary
at heart on account Of being kept from the pub
Nc crib by the people, and exposed swindlers In
dealings with the Government and army. That
they prove to be ridiculously few In their a2-
HrseAse numbers, and that tn ey are as weak
and purile as few, is SO very appaoent in
what occurred In their convention that tho
Baltimore Union Convention cannot fail to act
promptly upon the theory that the Union sem
timent Of the land Is unanimously in favor of
leaving the conduct Of the Government in the
