The Herald's correspondent with the Ar
my Of the Potomac says The capture OF the
enemys line Of piokets was ordered by Gen.
Hancock, and was executed so quick and
quietly that the rebels we're prisoners before
they we're aware Of it. The position occu-
pied was on commanding piece Of ground
near one Of our field works. 1t was imme-
dately occupied by our troops, and held A.
gainst the attempts Of the rebels to retake

Deserters state that considerable despond
enoy exists among the rebel soldiers, espeoi-
ally Georgia troops, they believing that their
state is hopelessly conquered.
1t is gratifying to see how our regiments
are filling up by reinforcemeDts constantly ar
irving. There is decided improvement in
tn morale of the array.
