I HpyKS. AAMY OF THE POTOMAC. Feb. 7.-7. p. m.
I fin' iif-ht near Hatcher's Hun yesterday
I .. < the most severe that has taken
I in this army for sonie time,and,taking
I f f'l consideration the unfavorable charac-
I !" r '„f the country through which the troops
Ito move, and the large force opposing
I i'„,ir advance, it is not strange that the
I ' i,iv gained a temporary advantage.
|v f|,e country from tin crossing of the
I Run to dabney's Mill is very woody, with
I ,tti'mps and ravines running through it in
directions, and the only road is a narrow
I .'v-road, not wide enough to allow two wag-
I \to pass, and in many places in very bad
I condition.
The Third Division of the Fifth Corps
;canoed, supported by the First and Sec-
I I Division, and also by a brigade of the
I sixth Corps.
I The enemy were driven to and beyond
| •mill on this road, about two miles from
I ,j u , crossing line of breastworks,
i There were 110 less than four divisions of
I p., enemy opposing our men, viz. : Ma-
I , 1( , s I'cgram's,Heath's and Gordon's old
I jivision—the latter three opposing the
I 1 ith Corps, while Mahone's, acting inde
[ , ndeiitly, engaged Gregg on the Vaughaii
I j; el Tor some time, when Gregg ordered
1 s cavalry to dismount, and held his oppo
! back well, inflicting some loss.
Mahone, finding no chance to accomplish
I nothing in this positiou, wheeled round,
I .mil. marching on a bj'-road running north
westwardly, struck the left flank of the
Fifth Corps, doubling it up and causing it
L i fall back on the center.
The woods here being so thick as to ren
in the formation of a continuous line im-
Tn.ssiljle, the command became somewhat
T.titiised, and the heavy fire which was
poured in by Mahone's men made things
-till worse, and in a few minutes the entire
Trie left their position, falling hack rapidly
ward the point they started from.
The fear of being cut off from the cross
,_r at the Vaughaii Road increased the con
tusion, and for a short time it seemed as
though a regular panic had seized upon our
nen, hut upon reaching the open country
11 tlie Vaughaii Road, and finding no ene
iv there, and the bridges all safe in the
Possession of our troops, they became re
assured, and in a short time the greater
' art 'if the Corps were in line ready to
Mitvt the enemy as soon as he should
qipear.
\ Tew minutes after when they did show
j t ■ niselves at the edge of the woods they
wore met by such a severe storm of bullets
, - Ti send them back into the woods very
ijiiickly.
Our loss during the day amounts to about
ix hundred, and that of Sunday to about
| two hundred, making a total for two days
f ab-iut eight hundred killed wounded and
missing.
The loss of the enemy is not known, but
, i< believed to be fully as large as ours.
We took altogether about one hundred
1 ' ighty prisoners, among whom are a
[ number of officers.
Notwithstanding a severe rain storm,
which set in last night and continued all
day to-day, freezing as it fell, the Third
Division of the Fifth Corps advanced to
the point it reached yesterday at Dabney's
Mills, driving the Rebels before them and
into their works beyond.
The casualties in this affair have not yet
been reported, but are said to be very
Tew.
This was all the fighting done to-day.
Our permanent lines now extend from
what was formerly the extreme left at Fort
<'ununiugs, on the Squirrel Level Road, to
aid across Hatcher's Run at Armstrong's
.Mill, with the advance well out toward
Dabney's Mill, a distance of about four
miles.
All this ground has been wrested from
the eiieniv in the past three days,and makes
tie line much safer and more formidable
than heretofore.
A> soon as the weather permits, further
active movements will no doubt take place
in this vicinity.
One or two more like the last will bring
us within easy striking distance of the
South-Side road, which,it is hoped.will soon
In* in our possession.
HEADQUARTERS ABMY OF THE POTOMAC, (
Wednesday, Feb. 8, 1865. j
The result of yesterday's engagement
was more important than reported in my
last dispatch, the particulars of which
were not fully known here at the time I
sent it off.
When the Fifth Corps fell back to the
line of works at Hatcher's Run, on Monday
night, the enemy did not follow very vigor
ously, nor did they make any attempt to
storm the position.
It was believed, however, they would do
so yesterday morning, but up to noon no
sign of an attack appeared, nor did the
Uebels seem to be in strong force in the
vicinity.
It was therefore determined to send a
reconnaissance out over the ground occu
pied liy 11s the day previous, and ascertain
where the Rebels were, and if possible
force them back to their works at Dabney's
Mill.
Gen Crawford's Division of the Fifth
1 >rps, having led the advance the day be
fore, and being best acquainted with the
nature of the country, was selected for the
duty, which they performed to the entire
siitistaetion of the Commanding General.
1 lie column moved about noon, taking
the Dabney s Mill road, and advancing
about half a mile struck the Rebel pickets,
who fell back as our men advanced.
A line of battle was then formed, the
right resting on Hatcher's Run and the left
supported by a part of Gen. Wheaton's
command of the Sixth Corps.
The entire line then advanced cautiously
throughout the thick woods on each side of
the road, and before going far met the Reb
els in force, when a sharp engagement im
meiliately began.
The Rebels were steadily driven back un
til they took refuge behind their works at
the Mill, where they made a determined
stand.
Fighting here was kept up until dark,
when our men commenced throwing up
flight Breastworks to protect themselves.
Ihe Re belt did not seem disposed to at
ttH'k again, as they had done the day previ
"s, and the ob ject of the movement having
'••on accomplished, by the development of
'coir position, our troops were withdrawn
' "ring the flight to their former position
1 'he \ aughan Road, in the vicinity of
inch strong works have been erected.
( 1 lie loss in the movement turns out to
( |tm- heavy, considering the small force
*■' gaged. The Third Division of the Fifth
' r |' s Buffered principally. The following
are the figures; Killed—s officers, fib men.
minded —2B officers, 491 men. Missing
' ''-rs. 586 men. Total wounded, 1,143;
"•I killed, 37. Aggregate loss, 1 lHOoffi
-18 :Ul '' men, out of about 4.000 who went
mtn the action.
Xo doubt a large proportion of those put
us missing will appear in a few days,
N| ' ailall y the case—the stragglers al
out of the way as long as
''"' ,Iv .v hiss in the division indicates
the manner in which the men acquitted
themselves, and they have been highly corn
plimented for their bravery by their .com
manding officers.
The loss in the Sixth Corps is not repor
ted, but is very slight, they acting as a
supporting column rather than an attack
! ing force.
LOCAL AND GENERAL.
"AN OLD FASHIONED WINTER." —Such is
the designation of the present winter, by those
who ought to know what "old fashioned winters''
were. We suppose it means snow covering the fen
ces, and the themometer at zero, half the time. The
snow-storm of last week certainly added to the
venerable reputation of the season, and as yet there
are 110 indications of any new fashions being intro
duced. The sleighing continues excellent, and is
improved by those seeking pleasure or the transac
tion of business.
W&- FRED DOUGLAS did not lecture on
Tuesday night last, as announced. He was un
avoidably detained, and failed to make his appear
ance to the disappointment of a large number ot
persons, some of whom had come miles to hear
him.
The disappointment, however, was lessened by
the presence in the Court House of GEORGE LAN
DON, who being called upon made some most elo
quent and appropriate remarks. Hon. U. MERCER
also addressed the meeting briefly.
MUTILATED CURRENCY. —We published a
paragraph last week, stating that postmasters were
required to redeem mutilated fractional currency.
Such is not the fact. The Treasurer of the United
States at Washington, will redeem it (on the con
ditions set forth in a circular issued by the Treas
ury Department,) when sent to him in sums of not
I less than three dollars.
DEATH OF A FORMER MEMBER OF THE 109 TH.
—ln the explosion of the magazine at Fort Fisher,
on the morning of January 16th, a catastrophe
that bore so much sorrow to the hearts of the peo
ple throughout the land, a recruit from Broom co.,
and a former member of the 109 th N. Y., was one
of the many who there sealed a national service by
a death in the cause of our land—of humanity.
In the summer of 1862, at the time of the organ
ization of the 109 th N. Y. V., FREDERICK CODERS - ,
a young man whose parents reside iu Bradford
county, Pa., enlisted in the 109 th as a musician,
and went from here as a recruit of, uud was cred
ited to, the county of Broome. He staid with the
regiment until some time in autumn last, when,
after a few weeks of preparatory study at Philadel
phia, he received a commission as Lieutenant in
the 137 th U. 8. Colored Infantry, and from that
time attached himself to his regiment. His was
among the other regiments sent to operate 011 Fort
Fisher, and through the dreadful assault of that
stronghold Lieut. COBUKN safely passed. After the
capture, and 011 the morning of Jan. 16, Lieut. Co-
BCRN and a friend obtained permission to visit the
Fort, and while standing on the parapet the explo
sion of the magazine occurred, the force of the
concussion throwing him a number of feet and in
stantly causing his death. Biiajhamlon Republican.

D 7 E D
DURAND.—In Herrick, Monday, Jan. 29th, 1865,
Nellie J., youngest child of John and Mary A.
Durand, aged 1 year, 9 months and 8 days.
Nellie was a child of bright promise, and of an
unusually sweet disposition. Though taken away
at so early an age, she lived long enough to twine
herself deeply into the affections of many hearts.
But she has gone to rest iu the bosom of him who
said. "Suffer the little children to come unto me
and forbid tliem not. for of such is the kingdom of
Heaven."
COKELY—In Franklin township, Feb. Ist, 1865,
of Inflammation, Margaret, only daughter of Dan
iel and Ellen Cokely, aged 31 years, 7 months,
and 5 days.
She left an aged father and mother and two
brothers to mourn her loss. Yet we trust their loss
is her gain. Although her body suffered extreme
ly, her spirit was calm and fully resigned to the
will of the great disposer of all events. During her
illness she professed faith in the Sou of God.
Therefore left an evidence beyond a doubt that her
happy spirit took its flight to the regions of the
blessed. Where God with the hand of kindness
will wipe off all tears from all faces. Besides those
of the immediate family she left a large circle of
friends and acquaintances, who ever held her iu
the highest esteem. Margaret was a lady of rare
talent, noble in her manner; virtuous in her char
acter, lovely and amiable in her every day deport
ment toward every one. Faithful in her duties as
a teacher. 'Twas those who knew her best that
loved and admired her most. May the kind in
junctions she endeavored to impress upon the sur
viving family and friends lead them to a series of
reflections and timely repentance. C. K. L.
She is free from earthly grief aud pain,
She cannot come to you again,
But you can go to meet her there,
If Jesus Christ vour hearts prepare.
