In the pursuit OF Lees army ~

sault on the enemy's works at p. NJ

enemy poured deadly fire into their
ranks. and they charged on batteries

earthworks with their wllistling mis-
siles. The redoubt was carried at
the point Of the bayonet, and a con-
siderable number Of rebels were killed
in the entrenchments and ten were cap
tnred. This assault, which was made
under the Immediate direction of Gen.
Birney, is considered a very brilliant
affair, and Gen. Hancock wrote him
very cougratulatory letter. The Sd

The rebels. when driven from the

across the river. but many Of them
remain. the bridge being sse much

The assault at Taylor's Bridge span.
ming the North Anna. was made with.
out loss Of time by the lth Maine.
The bridge was carried after sharp
skirmish, and the rebels were driven
from their position on the opposite
bank at Pm. The enemy made .
sortie from his works and endssvorsd
to retske the bridge I; but after . spir-
tied skirmish of about twenty min

night he made another attack with .
much larger force and drove our men
