done until the cool of the evening. But the
rebels did not allow the heat to trouble them,
and by 11 o'clock, A. at., having received their
artillery during the night, they opened fire
briskly on our advancing columns, from about
the point whence they had been driven last
eveuiug.
our men replied splendidly and in a short
tin* the engagement on the left and center
became general. We could now and then
hear the arrival of the trains both from Peter
sburg and Richmond, which prisoners told us
brought down reinforcements. They also
said that General Beariregard had come up
from Charleston with troops some days since,
and was then commanding the forces in front.
While the left and center were engaged for the
most part in artillery practice, the right col
umns, consisting of one brigade commanded
by Colonel Barton, of the Forty-eighth New.
York, hurried forward upon a road leading to
the Peteriburgh railroad near Chester Station,
where also is the junction of the Port Wal
hall road. Here they set a bridge on fire and
destroyed the track for some distance, but be
ing savagely pressed by the enemy, 'the order
was given to retire. The damage to the road,
I believe, is not thotight to be very great.
The fighting continued with unwavering vigor
ou both sides until 4 o'clock, when the rebels
were reported to be falling back. After fol
lowing them some distance an order was given
for our troops to return to the line in the
morning.
The casualties of the day I have been .un
able to learn. Gur loss is reported, however,
not to have been very serious. Most of the
wounds are from fragments of shells. Twelve
or fifteen officers are reported to have been
killed or wounded—among the latter Colonel
Dandy, of the 109th New York, whose injuries
are said to be slight. Gen. Heckman's horse
was killed, and a ball tore his glove, grazing
his hand.
The position of our forces here is consid
ered impregnable. If we cannot get out of
the peninsula which contains us, Ms certain
that the rebels cannot get in. The natural
defences of the place are perfect, leaving little
to be done in the way of entrenching, and the
gunboats are depended on to keep the river
open to Hampton Roads. We are very anxious
to hear from Grant, but beyond the knoWl
edge of a battle having commenced near Chan
oellorsville, have nothing definite. A negro
refugee from Richmond came to us to-day, re
porting that Lee and Ricketts had both been
seriously wounded.
We hear nothing of our cavalry expedition
under Kuntz. It was thought that he was too
late to cut the railroad at Hicksford in , time to
prevent the mass of Beauregard's troops com
ing up. Colonel West, with his negro cavalry
on the Peninsula, returned to Williamsburg,
after frightening the rebels badly, and was sent
out again.

ALTERED GREENBACKS. —We have seen sev
eral greenbacks that had been altered from $1
•to $lO, by the figure 10 being pasted Over the
1, and "Ten Dollars" over "One Dollar." The
word "one" between the small circles at the
top and bottom of the bill had been hidden
from view by a coat of green paint. No effort
had been made to erase or paint the word
"one" within the circles, and which is in very
small characters. The alteration in the note
is easily detected by an examination, as it
contains the portrait of Secretary Chase,
which only appears on the $1 notes. Yet in
the ordinary mode of doing business, persons
are liable to be imposed upon, as many do not
take time to inspect Government money. Sev

COLLLA.PSE OF THE BOUNTY BROKERAGE. —
Bogus Recruiting Officers under the Surveildeuce
- of the Military Authorifies.-Red Tape Relaxing
for Stern Action.—For many weeks we have„
appealed to the War Department to relieve
. this post of the incubus in the shape of an
incompetent or derelict officer, who was re
tarding the successful progress of the public
business. These appeals were unheeded,
and in the meantime neglect grew into frauds,
until the business connected with' the recruit
ing of soldiers at this post became a sort of
" Peter Funk" trade, by the operation of
which gallant Men were shamefully cheated,
a noble service outrageously defrauded, and a
confiding government wofully disgraced. On
Saturday last we called the attention of the
authorities to facts at once revolting, a case
in which the State authorities were actually
compelled to . Mterpose for the protection of
the soldiers of the national government. The
action of Adjutant Gen. Russell, in'promptly
confronting the rogue Hammer, and com
pelling him to disgorge his ill-gotten
gains, it seems, put to blush the commandant
of the post, Col. Bomford, and we now learn
that Bomford has issued an order suppressing
these military "Funks," so thit at least in the
future the service will be tecied from the
pilferings Of, these Cheats. But why did not
Bomford issue such an order months ago?
Why did he postpone his action untifthe vol
unteers had been robbed of thousands of dol
lars? Six months ago prominent officers at
the post . urged upon Bomford to issue an or
der,suppressing the speculators who were 'pH-
fering the hounties of the volunteers—and
months ago we appealed to him on the same
subject: But he"was 'stoical arid indifferent,
•
and seemed determined to wait until the very
life-blood had been sucked from the volun
teers before he could be induced to act. All
the time that we were urging Bomford to act
on this subject, clerks in Ms office we , e engaged
in frauds of which tee' complained, charging ex
tra for services for which they were handsomely
rewarded by the government. We do not as
sert that Bomford was cognizant of these facts,
but we do insist that his ignorance on the sub
ject of frauds being perpetratbd in an office
of which he has charge, is the best evidence of
his utter unfitness for the transaction of the
business of this post. Indeed, Bomford only
acted because he was driven by public indignation
to do his duty. _
We congratulate :the volunteer on the fact
that he will hereafter be protected from the
rascals who so long preyed upon his hard-
earned funds. The fact is reward sufficient
for us, for all we did in the premises, as well
as encouragement to continue our efforts to rid
the government oflmbeciles and protect the
soldiers from rascals•

POLICE iv/was—Before the Mayor.—The
following cases were before His Honor for a
hearing, since our report of yesterday:
Alex. Henry, a soldier, charged with as
sault and battery, was handed over to the
military authorities.
William Cole, of Co. I, 25th Penna. Begt.,
was charged with threatening to take the life
of his wife. Cole had in his possession a pass
allowing him 16 days' abSence, within the
limits of Philadelphia, but he managed to
reach this city. He was handed over to the
military authorities.
William F. Dugan and John Bayard• were
arrested as suspicious characters, and gave
confused accounts of themselves. The Mayor
committed'them for a further hearing.
Lizzie Shindel and Annie Shimer, two of
the most depraved prostitutes,. had a hearings
The Mayor committed them for ten days, and
notified them that he would continue to com
mit them as often as they would be brought
before him. One of them was only released
from prison a few days ago. The Mayor has
adopted an excellent rule in respect to the
nymphs who are arrested, and we hope he
will continuo to imprison them. He may
eventually at least partially relieve the com
munity of the greatest nuisance with which it
is afflicted.
The soldier who was charged, a few days
ago, with passing altered greenbacks (such as
we described yesterday) has been handed
over to the civil authorities by the military
departement, and he will have a hearing be
fore the Mayor this evening. 'Slitters which
have been brought to light since the former
hearing have caused the prisoner's transfer by
the military authorities.
