June 20,4.1 P. M.
Everything has remained . comparatiVely

livened a portion of fliet-lines; Vat it lasted.
a few minutes only; and was• occasioned
by an alarm among the pickets.
During the night, colmiel Tidball, chief
of the 2d corps artillery, hsving previbusl:i
examined the ground, posted several batteries
at favorable points—some even in advance of
"the infantry skirmish line—and this morn
ing they shelled the town. ..
The object of the shelling was not to de-
stroy the city, but to show the troops, which
we understood - were massed in the streets 01
Petersburg, that we could reach them witl.
our gunboats. The enemy did not open on
us-with their batteries'oppostts our front, per
haps partly, it not wholly, for the reason -that
our; sharpshooters are - so advantageously lo
cated as to make it very inconvenient for the
rebel artillerists to work their pieces. A few
shots were fired at us from the rebel batteries
on the heights beyond the Appomatox, and
the cannonading ceased altogether.
General BiAleyr has strengthened and im
proved the lints in front of the Second corps,
and made the position perfectly st care.

that, his wild had died that morning; but he

WARRINGTON, June 22-10 P. M.
To Maj. Gen. biz:
Dispatches from City Point. at 44 o'clock
this evening. report no fighting to-day.
Alovements are in progress which are not now
proper .tor publication.
The Richmond papers report an attack up
on Lynchburg by Gen. Hunter on Saturday,
and that he was repuLsed. It is believed, how
ever, that there was nothing more than a re
counoiss tnce, and that. having ascertained
the place to be strongly defended. Gen. Hun
ter withdrew, and is operatinv upon the ene
my's communications at other points.
A dispatch from Gen. Sherman's headquar
ters, dated yesterday at St-, o'clock, states that
"it had rained almost incessantly, in spite of
which our lines have been pressed forward
steadily, and an important position has been
gained by Gen. Howard."
The enemy made a desperate attempt to re
take this position last night, making seven
ilistinet assaults on Gen.. Whittaker''-s' bri
gade of Stanley's division, s.ndlosing• not less
than seven or eight hundred . men.
Two hundred killed were left on Whitta
ker's front. This assault was followed by a
neavy fire of artillery, under whiCh the posi
tion was fortified, and is now safe. -
Our cavalry is across Noonday Creek, on
oar left, and one brigade of the 23d Corps is
across Moses Creel 4 on the right;: but the rebel
left is behind a swamp, and the rains pre
vent, any advance.
The fighting has been quite severe at all
points, the enemy resisting stubbornly, and
attempting the defensive whenever be can,
.General Sigel reports from Martinsburg to
day:
"There is no truth in the statement of The
Phila eipkia Inpirer ot the 21st in relation to
a raid ot Mosby. Winchester is not occupied
bi the enemy, nor are the telegraph wires cut
between this place and Harper's Ferry."

qUarter has been received to-day 'by the De

Charges of Great Frauds and Corruption

•
NEw You:, June 23.
Blr Isaac Henderson, pulisher of Thc Even
ing ost, Navy Agent at this port, was arrested
yesterday by Marshal Murray and assistant on
a warrant issued by Commissioner Betts, on
the application of Mr. Wilson, Special Coun
cil of the Nay Department. The charges are
very serious, embracing fraud, bribery, the
transmission of false vouchers, &c. We did
not learn the amount which the Government
charges Mr. Henderson with having illegally
received, but it is said to be large. This 'al
rest Will take the community by surprise, for
the accused has heretofore borne an irre
proachable character, and has been consider
ed a man of large means for several years.
The Marshal called at the Navy Agent's of
fice, in the Evening Post building, at about 3
o'clock, and found Mr. Henderson at his desk
in his private office. He set ved his warrant,
and took hisprisoner to the District Attorney.
Counsel appeared, and, waiving the right of
a preliminary examination, bail was given
by E. F. Brown of the firm of F. & K. F.
Brown, attorneys, and Joseph Stuart of the
firm of J. D. h J. Stuart It% Co., bankers, in
the sum of 510,000. The hearing on the
warrant is set down. for this morning at 11
o'clock.
A few minutes before the arrest was made
Mr. Bridge of the Navy Department called
upon Mr. Henderson with an order from the
President removing him from office, and
reeting Mr. Bridge to take charge. •

MASTIC C=EMENT
Is PREPARED to turnish and coat the ex
terior of Buildings with the MASTIC CEMENT, on a
new system. This material is entirely different from all
other cements used heretofore, and is the only reliable,
imperisttable coating for outside work. Mixed with pro
per proportions of pure Linseed Oil it forms a solid, dura
ble adhesiveness to Brick or Stone Walls, making a beau
tiful, tine water proof surface and finish equal to Brown
Stone or any color desired.
