AsHINGToN, Aug.

For some time past it has been
known that the rebels were mining on
Warren's front with the purpose OF
repeating upon MS Grants tactics OF
the 29th. Shafts w;re sunk by our
forces aid the enemys mines dis
covered. The discovery, however,
was not made known to the rebels =
They were permitted to continue op
erations, as they supposed, to sue
cessful issue: meantime being closely
watched. On Friday, the 9Th, it be-
came eyident that the enemy was
ready to spring mi2e and prepara-
tIons were made to thwSrt them
That night our siege guns and batter
les were quietly removed from the
fortifcations mined, wooden artillery
substituted. aud everything made
ready for the expected operations
Batteries were posted to the right of
our works, and the troops properly
disposed to meet the expected attack.
On Saturday the mine was exploded.

valuable Quakers. The rebels i'm
mediately ti.arged. and few of
them, some fifty or sixty in number,
who succeeded in escaping the water,
were captured in the intervening
ground, Entiladed as 1t was by our
fire, it was too TN, omfortahle for the
rebels. and they quickly retired, leav-
ing a large number of of dead and
wounded upt the field. Our cas-
ualties were exceedingly few

TThe ease of Edward Johnson
a Gallipolis Pilot, who was arrested
for running without license short
time since was dismissed He having
been pressed into service by a Quar-
ter Master. Gazefes -.
In April last the Gazette found
room for very elaborate opinion in
the above case given by E. NJ Shields
the Sup. Inspector of the port of Gin.
who had imposed fine of sloP. up
on Mr.. johnson and revoked his Ii
cense because he had failed to apply
for renewal within thirty days. [
Mr.. Shields has been obliged by
the Secy. of the Treasury to dismiss
the proceedings and issue license to
Mr.. johnson and hence the brief
paragraph in the Gazette.
In this section of country where
Mr.. johnson is so well known, the
public are not satisfied with anything
short of the facts-which are as
follows: s s.r
Johnson's license expired 9th
Jan. 1854. Capt Stealy A. @ NJ. at
this post findingit Impossible 10 spare
him. from duty on board the Genl,
.Meirs on account of the '"LeHi
being burnt, declined Relieving him
long enough TO go to Cincinnati TO
renew his license. expecting to send
H. are;so there for repairs, which he
did in Johnsons charge as pilot on
the 18th March.
johnson Immediately on arrival re-
paired to the Inspectors Office and ap-
piled for license, which was refused
by ]. V. Guthrie local inspector and
a fire of 800 imposed. johnson
appealed to E. N. Shields Sup. Ins.
of the port, stating that the 'Meigs
was a Govt. Boat. not subject to the
Act of 1852 and that he had been obli-
ged to 60 on board by a military
officer. Mr.. Shiel Is ascertaining
that the Meigs sometimes carried
passengers, decided she was subject
to the law as steamers carrying pas
sengers for hire.
The fact of the A. @. NJ obliging
Mr.. johnson to pilot the boat. was
of no moment then, and that officer
was threatened with srrest by Mr..
Shields for doing so.
From this most vindictive and op-
pressive decision, Mr.. johnson ap-
pealed to the Secretary of the Trea-
sury. Whilst the appeal was pend
ing, and before the opinion of the
Secretary could be had, Mr.. Shields
goes before Commissioner Halliday,
files his affidavit has warrant is-
sued, sent to the Deputy Marshal
at Gallipolis, with orders to arrest
johnson and take him to Cincinnati,
which he did On giving hail, Mr..
Johnson's case was held over until
the Sd of August.
Before this date the Secretary of
the Treasury notified us that the pa
pers in the appeal had been sent to
Mr.. Shields with instructions how to
proceed, and on the 30th of July,
Mr. Shields writes in our care as fol-
lows: =
DEAR SIR:-sI am instructed by
the Hon. Secretary Of the Treasury
to withdraw the suit now nending
against youiin the q. S. District
Court and renew your license as
pilot; Your ob't sery't.

The above are the facts in the
whole case, aud they show that Mr..
johnson has been made the victim OF
official tyranny and Injustice His
arrest was a most shameful outrage
