Point dispatch Of the 7th says the enemy
have abandoned the ground in front Of the
"a corps, that he had previously attempted
to occupy, AID drove Us from. They LEFT
their dead to fall into our hands Burial
parties were busy all day in giving them
the last rites.
We are still holding, and intend 10 hold,
AL the ground in the direction Of Hatchsr's
Run.
The losses yesterday and tho day before
are, in killed and wounded, between 80
and 300, in the ID COPS, and probably not
far from 500 in the 5th corps. The loss Of
the latter is estimated at much larger
number BY many, but think il will not
exceed these hgures.
Brig. Gen. II. z. Davis, commanding q
brigade Of cavalry, is slightly wounded.
Maj. Tremsine, on Gen. Gregg's stso, - re-
ported wounded.
It was reported last evening At The front
that the cavalry which hiss advanced 70
Diuwiddis court house, beyond the Boyd
town plank road, have captured 20 Of the
snemy's wagons and about hundred horses
said to belong 70 Bradley Johnson's com
msnd.
L. is generally observed BY our officers
and commanders thai the enemy don't hgh
as we'll 81 formerly, and it Is to a great ez-
teat attributable 10 the bewiIdoring tactics
o. Gen. Grant, which keeps them in cen
stsut motiony marching from one threatened
point 20 another, onIy 10 return again, until
they become dishsartened and dispirited
and ready to throw down their arms snd
yield themselves prisoners whichever OP-
porluai.y offers.
