A despatch has just been received from

1t states that by the flank movement on
Resaca Johnston had been forced to evacu.

and flank. The weather was fine and the
troops in fine order. All is working well
and as fast as possible
Nointelligence has been received from
Gen. Butler.
The euerriilas have broken the telegraph
lines between Williamsburg and Old James

no reportshave been received from him.

THE-army news still continues foveraole'
There can now be no manner of doubt that
the battles of last Wednesday and Thurs
day were complete victories for the Federal
arms. But, much as has been accomplish
ed, more remains yet to do. Lees army
notwithstanding it must be much weaken
ed by the dreadful contests through which
it has passed is still strong enough to make
a formidable resistance. Especially when
aided by Notifications and when posted on
ground of its own choosing it will constr
tute no mean obstacle in tle way of Gen.
Grants march to Richmond. Atthe North
Anna river it is said that the rebels have q
depot of supplies aud formidable earth
work, and it is quite likely that the deci-
sive battle of the campaign viii be fought
there. Under any other general than
GRANT there might still be room to doubt
the final success Of the Army Of the Poto-
mac. but, under his leadership, the army
knows no such word as fail.
Our losses are probably not so large as
"a some of tie earlier estimates represent
ed them. 1t now turns out that very
large proportion of those who went to the
rear and are reported as wounded men arc
mere stragglers who are being rapidly re-
turned to duty at the front.
