From the Army of the Potomac
Z - y More FIGHTING.


Nav YONG, June 27th,-The Tribune's
special from the Army of the Potomac,
dated Saturday, June %, a. ~, says, dur
ing two hours yesterday morning, from 6
to 8, the earth trembled TO the thunders OF
more than one hundred cannon. Badly
Smith was attacked. 1t will be remem
bered he holds next to the Appomattox,
within less than mile of the city. His
line stretches along the plain at right angles
with the river, while the rebels have I'M
disturbed possession OF the bank opposite
and q long distance in his rear. On that
bank they suddenly uncovered sixty guns,
exposing this 18th corpssto an eniiIadin9
FIRE and a reverse FIRE. At length the enc
my attacked with musketry as we'll as with
cannon. They very foolishly moved their
line upon our works, since sscertained to
have been Haygood's s. G. brigade, OF
Hoks's division. The repulse was the work
| of but few moments and was complete;
l65 prisoners fell into our hands. By a
stragetic movement they were drawn into
our rife pits and these being cannonaded
in the rear by covered works, the rebels
were obliged to surrender.
A special to the Philadelphia Enquirer,
dated the 24ih, says, Gen. Wright, with
the 9th corps, made q movement to the
left, which reached the railroad, of which
he destroyed some Ave miles. Fires were
built which destroyed the ties and at the
same time warped the iron so as to make
it unfit for further use. Having accom-
plisbed the object he returned to his for
mer position.
A special to the Times of the Gath inst,
says:
This morning Longstreet and Hill are,
it is ascertained, moving toward Weldon,
having vacated their entertainments in our
front.
During brief skirmish this morning a
few prisoners were taken, from which il
appeared that Beauregard's main army are
now covering Petersburg, while Lees forces
are moving to our left, with what design
remains yet to be seen.
Rebel deserters who came in this morn
ing state that our recent Smelling of Peters
burg by Birney's artillery, was very
disastrous. He adds that the rebels are
marching and counter marching to guard
against our expected attack. zas
WAsHlEaToN, June %, p. ma New
York World correspondent writes, under
date of yesterday morning, that we per.
manently hold the Petersburg and Weldon
railroad, south of Petersburg.
The 9Th corps had severe fight with
Hills corps, and drove them back several
miles, and hold the railroad in an en-.
trenched position.
Other important movements are in pro-
gress.
NEw York, June 27.-The Herald's City
Point correspondent says: Atlanta papert

NsW Yoax, June 27.-The Headquar.
tiers correspondent of the Commercial Adj
vertiser, under date of June 20, says the
portion of the 10th corps under Gen. FOs-
ter, sent across the James river, is now
operating on the West bank Of that stream
in conjunction with the gunboats. At last
accounts Foster had worked his way past
Akin's Landing, which place will be re-
membered as having been declared neutral
ground for the exchange of prisoners and
before this reaches you he will probably
have attacked and we hope captured Chat
fms Bluff.
If Gen. Foster succeeds in his mission
and carries this rebel stronghold, We can
then reduce Fort Darling by erecting a
counter work. A heavy line of entrench-
ments assisted by several mortar boats and
concentrating a sweeping fire on Drury's
Bluff, is the evident design of Grant in his
next operation.
The capture of Fort Darling virtually
places Richmond in onr hands. II will
then be very easy matter to destroy the
rebel iron elads or keep them at Richmond.
Nothing then can hinder our monitors from
Smelling the rebel capitol.
The maneuvres of Grant of the past
week have not been to bring on general
| engagement, neither have we fought any
considerable battle. The main object was
to give relief to Gen Hunter. Our main
endeaVOrs are to obtain full and perma-
nent possession of the Petersburg and Vel
don railroad, which cuts the rebel Confed-
eracy iu twain.
The Commercial says of the accident on
the Erie railroad that it was less serious
than at first reported. The accident oc-
Cured at O'Clock Sunday morning, and
was caused by collision between freight
aud gravel train. The only person killed
was laborer who was in the gravel train.

~TRIAL OF a CASE OF ABuITRRY-
LIVELY FooT RAcE.--we learn that q
case of adultery, which excited much in
tersst, WAS tried before the Hancock Cir
cult Court, the latter part of last week.
One Timothy MoCarty was indicted for
adultery.with Mrs. Moorhead, the wife of
soldier. Several witnesses who watched
Mrs. Moorhead'slO log house last winter, saw
McCsrty enter at unreasonable hours and
listened at the chinks, gave testimony
which, while it established the truth of
the charge beyond doubt, exhibited Mrs.
Moorhead in the light of anything but an
innocent or prudent woman. The jury
found a verdict of guilty and fined Nc
Carly 500 and costs. =S ia
After the trial was over Moorhead, armed
with an immense bludgeOn, rushed upon
McCarty, with the evident intention of
taking his life, but the latter took to his
heels. Moorhead followed and large
number of other persons started in pur-
suit. The last seen of Timothy he was
going over q hill and seemed to be gaining
gradually but surely upon his pursuers.-
1t is thought in the neighborhOod that
MooFhead will kill McCarty unless he
leaves the county, ia>il,s
