We were heavily engaged ou the 17th
and 18th, having marched on the Rebela
works, and carried them. We advanced
on one of tbeir railroads, tho track of
winch was in a cut 25 feet deep, and oa
tbe edge of tbe top of the bank they fized
wire to trip us up ; a good many went
down headlong, but I got over safe.
While we wore thus sheltered, tbe Itebs
thought to plaut a battery on our right,
and rake tbe road whero wc were ; but our
batteries did not let them get into position,
and our Cre -ksa so hot that they left.

They call it "the Rail Splitter and Tailors'

Mr. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War,
has answered the questions of anxious
inquirers hero about tho situation at
Petersburg, to the effect that Leo's furco
is not more than two-thirds of Grants;
that our lossos last week in tho movement
toward tho Wcldon road were militarily
unimportant, and that Grant had his hand
on Lee's throat,
Ho gives to all the assurance of our
Goal and conclusive success. Among tho
striking facts which Mr. Dana has men
tioned is that we have at this moment 51,
000 of the Rebel soldiers, prisoners in our
bands. The publio feolicg tcro to-night

Eloquence of Andrew Jjtuison,
The following is una of the most truly
clofjuont passage over spoken. It is from
a speeeh delivered by Am-RKV Jiiii.nsoS,
in April Unt, to a mass meeting of tho
people of Kuoxvillo and viciuity :
My countrymen ! my heart yearns to
ward you ; I love you ; I am ono t jdu.
I have climbed youder uyjuiitoins that you
have climbed, mountains rock-ribbed aud
glowing in siju ahine, iu whose gorges, iu
whose caverns, your sous, huuted like
wild boasts, have fallen to rise no more.
I do Dot speak of these things to draw
your tears. It is cot the timo for tears,
but for blows. I speak of them that 1
may Ore your heart with holy indignation,
aud uervc your aims fr unconquerable
fiht. And I speak of them becauso tbo
mountains seem to talk to uie. My home
is among tho woqutuiiis, and, though it is
not far away, I can not go to it. It is the
place where I met aud loved anikmarried
her who is the mother uf my children. Do
I not love tho mountains, then ? And if
:i...rl in l,.il, ,1.
liberty is to expire., if freedom is to be
destroyed, if my country, iu all its length
aud breadth, is to trciuMo beneath the
oppressor's tread, let the flag, tho dear old
fl i'', the last flag, be planted on yon rocky
heie-hts, and upon it let bo there this
inscription : "Here is tbe end of all that
is denr to tho heart uud sacred to tbo mem
ory of inau!"
"The Rebel GeDcral,JohnsoD, lately had
twonty.fire of bis men, in Georgia, tied
to a stake and shot, for trying to desert."
A copy of the Richmond M'hij oontains
tbe following affecting paragraph :
" The UritmM are the Temlrrat. The
Crst tears shed by Gen. John O. Rrcokin-
rid;o since the war, wore shed ou Friday
night, 3d instant, on account of the death
of bis fii'orite hum:, that had borue him
since tbo battlo of Shilob."
"Tho tender meroics of tho wicked are
cruel." A dog or a horse is of more eon
ecq'icnoo to Rebel leaders than a man or
a woman so degrading is the effect of
Slavery upon tbe Gncr feelings. Treating
blacks worse than tbey do their brutes,
they soon become callous to all human
suffering, but weep for the less of a "favor
ite" animal !

Tho Grand Jury of New York, refused
