Generals Logan and Dodge began the fighting
by a charge on the rebel right, driving back
the cnemy's skirmishers and carrying part of
a line of rl1e.pits. The attacking troops wero
brought to a halt by perpedicuar cliff, from
which the rebels poured destructive fire.
The Federal troops intrenched themselves,
holding the ground they had gained. General
Schofield also had a sharp engagement on the
rebel left, Generals Newton aud Davis di-
visions made the most important attack, dash
ing up the mountain slope, through murder
Gus fire, and reaching tho stronger works OF
the enemy. General Harker and Wagner and
1000 men were killed In this charge. Cen
oral MCCook was wounded. The destructive
fire aud the difficulty of maneuvreing troops
made 1t necessary to retire. Some of the
troops were left intrcnched TO hold the ground
gained.

II doesn't seem to have occurred to the Demo-
Gratis that the alleged military interference with
all which it did not took place before the passage
OF the law which they are trying to repeal. The
latter was passed In 1865, and to use the alleged
military interference in this city in 1864 as all argu.
ment against that law is grossly absurd.

Southern State under Home Rule has made
more or less progress during the past three

that those debts were contracted by Repub-

SINCE his return to Philadelphia, in fact,
from his arrival at SAN Francisco down to
the date of this writing, many curious
people haYe been trying to learn from ex-
Secretary BoRGE something Of General
GRANTS intentions regarding the next
Presidency, Bnt they have not succeeded.
MI. BoGE does not know, and apparently
General GRANT does not tnOw-that is, if
he does he will not tell any one, not even so
intimate friend as the venerable ox-Sccre-
tary. This is, Of course provoking and
very unsatisfactory TO the curious inqui-
rers in question. We imagine, however,
that if they will seek the information at
other hands their curiosity will be graf
flied. by other hands we mean
the people of the United States or that part
of them who serve to make up the nomna-
ting force Of the Republican party. They
have the matter in their control and will
dispose of ii for the best interests of the
country, regardless of what Mr.. BoRGE oil
even General GRANT himself may think.

vice from others) that he had at least the
intellectual advantages which would
enable him to emulate the white mans
ways in good habits, and he accordingly
pushed forward TO reach that goal that
would render himself and family com
