Bath of tho Five Forks

NEw YoRK. Apri 4-The World has .
graphic account d Sheridan's battle Of
Five Forks, which was the turning point
in the great coufct, and which ueder
Sheridan's generalship viii take rank With
anything on record
IL appears that Grant was not satisfied
with the days business on Friday, and
placed Sheridan IL supreme command OF
the whole of Wsdee's corps and all the
cavalry. Sheridan at once name uvred
with his cavalry, dismouoting portion 10
front Of the rebels, and gradually pressed
them back into their works under the
most desperate ana terrible fighting OF the
war. While this was being done, and done
slowly by order, Sheridan set about form
ing the infantry, showing the same genius
in infantry tactics that be has in cavalry.
1t was marvel to see 30 paltry a force oil
cavalry press back and hold 10 check It,.
600 rebel infantry. Still they did 1t. and
in such a manner as to completely hide
the movement of our infantry.
They were driven back step by step in-
to their works then the signal was given
and the infantry closed on the works
like a huge barn door. The discounted
rebels saw their situation but did not APP
pear to appreciate how desperate were
their circumstances. They fell back to the
LETT only to see and foreclose the lines OF
battle waiting to drive them across the
field. At the right. however, horsemen
charged them 10 their vain attempt to fight
out, aud 10 their rear foot and cavalry
began to assault by slspt-fre. cross IRE
and direct FIRE, by file aud battery, which
rolled perpetually. cutting down their
brayest officers and s,rewing the field with
bleeding men. Their own artillery was
turoed upon them, and at last bodies OF
cavalry mounted their psrspet and charged
down upon them, slashing and tramping
them into confusion. They had no com
mander to lead them out OF the toll into
which they had fallen. A few more vol
legs. q new charge, the word to die or sur
render, and 8 900 muskets were throwr
upon the ground, aud 5000 men are Sher'
id ans prisoners. Those who escaped wert
pursued by the fiery "Ouster," and they
we're pursued far into the desolate forest

doubtless the cause of the postponement.
The plsn of the last phase Of tho action
was this: Gen Grant on the receipt OF

Forks. Immediately dispatched couriers 10

MORE, April 4.-The mail steamer Dictator
arrived from City Point at 4;3o this p. n,
and brings additional particulars OF the
great struggle. Petersburg was occupied
by our own troops at o'clock Monday
morning. Oar gunboats were all well up
the James River and it WAS thought that
q fight bad taken place with the rebel Iron
clsds. Large fires were seen up the James
river last night, towards Fort Darling and
in the vicinity OF other rebel works, from
which IL was inferred Lee was abandoning
his works and re,resting from bis long co.
tablished line.
An immense number of prisoners have
been captured, variously estimated at from
200 to $4,000. Prisoners are continu-
ously arriving at City Point, and 1t vas
estimated that there was 10, 900 there.
This morning when the Dictator left
salute was being fired BY ell war vessels
at the Point.
The steamer Cossack arrived here with
large number of Union prisoners, includ.
ing Gen. Mclaughlin, and the men OF bis
brigade captured with him by the rebels
in the assault upon Fort Steadmsn.
Such was the haste of the rebels 10 bur.
ryiug the Union prisoners through Rich.
moud on Sunday that 10 many cases many
were not even paroled. The returned
prisoners say that in coming through Rich.
mond on Sunday they saw manifest indi-
catious Of the evacuation Of the city. The
streets were alive with people Of all classes,
conditions and ages, manifesting intense
excitement.
All the Union prisoners in Libby Prison
were ordered TO be exchanged by the rebel
authorities, aud were hurried through the
city Of Richmond towards the Vsrins
Landing in the greatest possible haste.

The Potomac Army-Ths Battle
Last Saturday.

HEADQUARTERS Army OF TIE PoroxAc.
April 2-The most important victory The
Army Of the Potomsc has ever gained 10
Virginia was won to day, and the outer
line Of works which We have been trying
10 vain for monlhs to overcome has at last
yielded to our victorious arms, aud the
main part ofthis army ere TO. night within .
mile and half Of the city, on the south.
west side. The struggle made BY the en-
envy to retain these works has been OF the
most desperate character, and for the sue
cess obtsined to. day We are indebted not
only to the strategy exercised by the com
msnders, but to the overwhelming nun
bers add bravery of the troops that did
the work.
The orders for an attack on the line East
and South Of Petersburg, by the 9Th add
9Th corps, were carried out paoctually 1T
daylight, the artillery having been hum
ming away the greater part Of the night
along the entire line held By the above
corps. Such furious esnnouads has very
seldom been heard during the war, not
even surpassed BY that which was heard
on the occasion OF the mine explosion 10
troos Of Petersburg.
The Ninth corps troops engaged iu the
action were the I'd and ID divisions, and
Col. Sam Hsrriman's brigade, Of the Let
division. The charge Vas made 10 front
of Forts He'll and Rice, on the jerusalem
road, and we're 90 far sucesssfol that by
