correspondent reeounis the pursuit Of
Lees army, The 24th corps reached
near Blacks and White station, on the
South-Side Railroad, on the morning Of
the 9th, with Generals Grant and Ord
The 9th corps and cavalry passed on to
Jettersyille, on the Danville road, and
arrived there without any fighting
until the night of the 4th The I'd 9th
and 9th were following closely in their
rear, and by the night of the 5lh they
were all upon the Danville road, and

appears that Lee ordered that portion Of
his army cut of by our piercing his line
on Sunday to join him at Amelia G. a.,
fearing 10 have them attempt TO reach
Burkesville junction, and so on to Dan
willie. 80 let5 .a9dI ~
When Gen, Grant reached Nottaway
Court House d staff officer arrived and
stated that Sheridan had encountered
the enemy in small force at Jettersville,
and bad driven him and made import
ant captures Our forces had intended
to go into camp, but Grant knew that
Lees only hope was in forced marches;
he, therefore, ordered the advance con-
'inued. The men, who had already
tramped twenty miles, on being informed
OF the stirring news from Sheridan,
camored to march all night and started
off with cheers s7sfs Iaa dsH fcaa
Wherever Grant was recognized as he
rode along the lines the delight Of the
soldiers was expressed in the most en-
thusiastic manner. As one division ex-
hausted itself in cheering another would
take it up, and 50 it went along the
whole column. Ial
Soon another dispatch was received
from Sheridan, and its contents were
such as to Cause Grant to leave the road
and cut across the country to Sheridan
headquarters, on the night Of the 5th.
The army lay in line of battle, stretch
ing across three o. four miles of co un-
try, and facing Jettersyille. Custar's
division OF cavalry lay on the right
flank, aud McKenzie's on the left.
The infantry was formed with the Sixth
corps on the right; the Fifth in tbe;een-
tire, and the Second on the left. During
the night, Lee moved off many of his
trains, and, it was feared be would elude
this column. Ord was to march in the
morning towards Lyucbburg, and cut off
his retreat to any point South of that
