THE SITUATION.
RUMOR RUN WILD.

A cotemporary publishes this afternoon as
information received by Government state
ments that great victory was achieved by
General Grant on Wednesday and Thursday,
driving the enemy two and a half miles, with
immense loss to the enemy, and that Gen. e..
was following up that victory on Friday
morning by an assault on the enemy's works.
We should be very glad to be able to confirm
this news, but have to say that after dIligent
inquiry we are satisfied that Government has
received no such information, or any information
Of more decisive results than that furnished py
the Tribune dispatch elsewhere.
The fact that Meade was able to stand the
brunt Of the Confederate onset with portion
of his command is considered q hopeful indi.
cation, and we hope soon to be able to announce
decisive victory; but we shall not trife with
our readers by manufacturing bogus victories
for an hours sensation.
The moment any reliable information ia re.
ceiyed we shall issue it in a supplementary
edition.

FORTRESS MONROE, May CLAY wing obtained
permission from Captain Peifer. A. d. @. to
Gen. Butler, to publish anything that has fully
transpired here in regard to the highly import
ant movements in this direction, transmit the
following particulars:
On Tuesday night, the Sd instant, about one.
half Of the large fleet Of transports that have
been lying in the Roads for some time were Or
dered to Yorktown, and commenced embarking
troops. On Wednesday the rest of the feet
went up and took the remainder OF the troops
then proceeded up James river, passing here
last night. The movement was conducted with
the greatest secresy and with al possible quiet
ness. The feet advanced up the James river,
preceded by the army gunboats, under COM
mand OF Gen. Graham.
During o-day and last night very success
full landing has been effected. and no resistance
had been met with up to o'clock this morning,
at which time the Thomas Powell left with
dispatches, In charge Of Captain Peiffer. No
casualty had occurred beyond the killing of q
colored soldier and the injury of two others, by
being caught between two boats
Our movement was evidently complete
surprise. at LAST advices our forces were being
rapidly landed and pushed forward.
We have landed at Wilson's Wharf, Fort
Powhattan Landing, Bermuda Hundred, above
the Appom attox, &c.
Our monitors and gunboats are all over the
bar at Harrison's Landing, and above City
Point. The operations Of the fleet have been
characterized by great energy and success.

AZ stated elsewhere, 1t is believed that Lee Is
falling back, but we judge that In 50 doing he
will not fall back upon Richmond, bat upon
Orange Court House, which has been his head
quarters during the winter, and which is In
direct communication with GordonsViiie'
Charlottesville and Lynchburg, which Po'n's'
and not Richmond, are his base Of supplies.
The line of attack by Lee In the hsnane Oh
Thursday and Friday nearly at right angles
with Grants line Of advance. and from tne
direction of Orange Court House indicates
that Lee made the latter point his base and
headquarters.
The forced march Of a day and night by
Burnside from Manassas, by which he got Aii
troops to Grants support on Thursday night
is said to have surpassed even his brilliant
forced marches in East Tennessee, by which
he surprised the enemy there. Probably Let
