Warren has pushed down on our left

Warren holds his ground at distance
Of seven miles from Richmond. He
reports that he has taken a consider

there are many of the rebel dead on

fict has been raging ever since dark,
bat has just closed AS soon as the
enemy attacked the left of Warren,
Wright and Hancock were ordered to
"pitch IN" but did not seem to get
ready till after night Nothing has

The other despatch above referred to

last night, Colonel Brooks drove the
enemy out Of a strongly intrenched
skirmish line, and holds it. The loss
is not all reported.

slaughter 80 the enemy. Grant fights
and is repulsed; his direct advance ei-
fsctualiy checked, he moves OF on q

few miles nearer Richmond claims the
victory"
We presume by this time, our Rich
mohd contemporary has had its doubts
removed, as 10 whether or not Grant
had better recrossed the. Rapidan- To
say that GeneEal is defeated, who is
continually advancing, is an absurdity.
Let US see what Grant has done
Taking rad,al or straight Line distances,
as showing the precise fact most accu-
raiely, We have these results. At his
headquarters (Culpepper Court-House),
Grant was precisely seventy-two miles
from Richmond. At the Wilderness
Tavern he has advanced sixteen miles
The distance Of each situation was as
follows
Miles frors Richmond.

Spottsylvania Court House

This is q pretty respectable advance
in the siege Of Richmond, made in four
weeks. Considering that Gen. Lee had
an inyinoible army, covered by inyinci-
bic intrenchments, and has been all
this time, according to rebel state
ments, repulsing and defeating, and
driving US back, this is very decided
advance, and looks as if Richmond was
in some danger Of being attacked
If Grants army really was defeated,
as our rebel contemporaries, north and
south, contend, he has done what no
other beaten General ever did; adyan-
ced S. miles while being thrashed.

Immediately after the battles Of the
Wilderness, and spottsylvania, the Cop
pefhssd ftess, ehagrined st the fact
that orr army had not been defeated,
began to magnify Grant losses, placing
itat from IS, coo to -, 00e. Among the
journals that did this, none was more
conspicuous than the Cincinna1i En-
qulrer. It's Washington correspondent

Rebel nOpes or arant,s Retraat.

The Richmond papers do not disguise
from themselves that in General Grant
they have very formidable antagonist.
The Examiner says
Grant Is q determined man he has
pTodigious force under his hand; he
plays the great tFumps for himself and
his Government; and we may rest az
sured that whenshe is beaten il viii be
when the last capacity for fight has
been taken out of him and his army.
Until this is done, the Confederate
Generals, Army and Government, must
brace every nerve, stretch every sineW,
force nature and yield nothing to
fatigue. II We win this round the game
Is our own. Nothing can prevent the
collapse of the war party in the United
States, and the explosion Of its hnan-
cial system Then indeed may we
sing that the pride Of the tyrant is
broken
The Richmond SentineTs correspon-
dent with Lees army, says
Grant is fighting very stubbornly,
and with pluck tina: is either desperate
or sudacious. His own courage may
be mistaken, and the ruin Of his for
tune, which detail, may make him per
tinacious and reckless, but his men
will be swayed by other ideas. and will
force him to relinquish the unsuccess-
fol fight
There seems room to. hope that he
msy inextricably involve himself be
fore the breakdown shall come, and
that this obsEnacy will thus compass
his ruin What his plans are It is diff
fult 70 divine His policy would die
tate 10 him to get out Of the way Of an
army that he has forced himself to
fight accordingly I had anticipated
hstring that he had sought safety, As
Hooker did in his escape from the VIII
derness, by crossing az the United
States Ford, and thus putting the Rap
pahannock between him and the enc.
my. But so far from this, we find him
thrusting out his columns IS far as

twice make battle

which he's operating viii give him "a

be willsysil himself and, from which
he will probably reap advantage.
These speoulations Of the rebels are
peculiarly interesting TO the public at
this time. Lee pompously announced
avictory, after the first fight with Grant,
and The people tried desperately 10 per
susde themselves that our army would
retreat 20 the north side Of the Kappa
hammock. How he might do it, in safe
tyi was generously pointed cut TO Grant,
as will be seen by the above paragraph
but somehow he would not regard the
well-mesnt sdmonitions; he would net
fall back, but proceeded eoaward, right
