gtpaitvivg. - . irlorAny or WAir. NE"' On Tuesday night, the 3d inst., Lieut. Geri. G ran t commenced crossing the Rapidan, and an Wednesday his entire army was across with the exception of Burnside's corps. Brisk silk uiisiting emalnenced on Wednesday, but there was no general engagement until Thursday af ternoon, When Hill made a desperate assault upon Hancock's corps, and 'the battle lasted wall night, without decided advantage to either side, save that Hancock held his line - and had , repulsed Hill's attack. This was in the dense Wilderness in an a ngie between the Rapidan and ilins Run; and the aim of Lee was to crip ple Grant's army before it could get on favora ble ground. On Thursday night Burnside join ed Grant, having made a forced march from ma m mas, and at five _o'clock on Friday morn - ing the entire Union army was in line of battle. The attack- was made by Ewell at daylight,, and from thut time ;feta night the battle raged withlearfulTury. The whole of both armies :were engaged, and a series of the most despe rate assaults were trade upon General Grant's 'lines, but his gallant army stood like adamant. , Sometimes one side, would yield a temporary advantage, and again the other would recede, and - the same ground was often fought over three or four times as the tide of advantage would surge from one Side to the other, Tio3 any-closed upon one of the most desperate atki.'l deadly battles in 'the history of war, with little no perceptible„ advantage to either side. It was, • however, substantially a defeat to Lee, for hehis_d failed in his exhausting effort to break Grant's army, _find had weakened himself much ;more - than his foe. But he did not yet abandcln, his favorite tactics of hurling massed columns ttrin'otir lines. Near midnight fie broke upon Sedraitk, who held Grant's right_wing, with anch-TimpetuositY that he flanked Sedgwick's ettreme wing, thiew several brigades into con ' fusion, and ctiptured Generals Seymour and Maier, and acme 700 men. Beyond this, how,. • ever, the assault failed—the main Wing was in slncible and the foe had to retire again. 'On Friday night Gen. Grant threw his right wing _gear over to ids left, and thus advanced his line toward Spottsylvania, and threatened Lee's right hank. Lee at once surrendered the bat , tle-ground of the Wilderness, and onSaturday the fighting was renewed on new lines, and from Saturday until -Tuesday the armies were engaged daily with more or less desperation, without decisive results—Gen. Grant ever hold - ing his own and at times gradually advancing. On Tuesday of last week, the foe seemed re, solved to make another death-struggle to break: Grant's lines and thus cripple . him sothat he, must imitate M'Clellan, Burnside and Hooker by retreating back toward Washington. The -rebel supplies were evidently, becoming ex hausted, as a desperate but unsuccessful attack had been made on our trains the day before.; and the stand of Tuesday Was doubtless made with the double purpose of permanently arrest ing Grant's advance and breaking fis lines to procure supplies. The battle was most despe rate, but the-power of the - rebels was waning, while the gallant 'Army of the Potomac had been infused with new life under its persever- ' ing commanders, and the day was closed with ,positive disadvantafd to the rebels and their ranks terribly shattered. For the first - time our artillery was used with fearful effect on that day—the dense timber . " of the Wilderness ren dering artillery uselessi—and their loss was man ifestly greater than ours. On Wednesday -the struggle was renewed, but the foe made feeble resistance compared. with the day before, It was evident that they were fast failing either in supplies or in . confidence of succeess, and on Wednesday night Hancock's corps was so dis posed as to be ready for an assault before_day break on Thursday morning Gallantly did the brave young Pennsylvanian perform his task, 'and over 4,000 prisoners and 36 guns were cap tured by his command. Being in a•layong po • action, the rebels defended stubbornly the re mainder of the day', and also on Widay, but Grant was steadily advancing and his decisive victory was evidently only a question of time. The battle of 'Thursday was decisive—it had exhausted the foe beyond. farther endurance,. and although iu a chosen and entrenched poai tion, they were unable to hold it against the in -vincible columns of Grunt and Meade. On Friday evening they abandoned their line, and Saturday Morning found them retreating across • -beyond the'Pre,eil over the Ta river, and ta king Afp d new line on the latter stream. Gen. _Grant ones crossed his 'army over the Po, and at the clam of nine days of continuous fight ing he found himself wholly master of the bat :Ale fields, and:. his foe retreating before him. Since then w4ave not, at the time of this wri ting, had news of Grant's advance, and it is probable ,that the storm • has so swollen the streams that he cannot do so for a few days. Thus nobly, wisely, and with matchless skill - did Lieut. Gen. Grant and Maj. Gen. Mend direct the ever heroic but ill-starred Army of the 'Potomac to decisive victory. Green and en during indeed will be the laurels won by Grant and hiegrand'Arniy! But the movements immediately under Gen. Grant mods the Rapidan were but a part of the grand operations he was couducting. From • the sanguinary fields of the Wilderness and the Po he directed the movements _of other columns :to whom was assigned most important auxilary duties. Gen. Butler moved up the Peninsula, landed South of the James River, severed . 'Richmond from Petersburg and invested Fort Darling. On Saturday he had the Fort cut off from all reinforcements, had defeated Bemire /card and driven him back into Petersburg, had the Monitors with him just below the Fort, and thus was within eight miles of therebel capital, and threatening it daily. Gen. Sheridan, chief of Cavalry under Gen. Grant; had been sent round to Lee's rear to sever his lines with Richmond, and destroy his stores, and the work vas most completely done. He destroyed the 'Aire road from Lee's rear to Richmond— laming every important bridge and destroying very culvert, and every car, locomotive and Blithe stores and munitions on the line shared the game fate. At one point he - destroyed a millon and a half of rebel rations. When near T -Bi-chnond The was met by Stuart andhis cav e:l7.'sd they were routed and Stuart killed, and Sheridan proceeded beyond the first line of the fOrtifications of Richmond, and landed on the Peninsula. This movement has cut Lee off entirely from adirect line of supply, and devel oper the fact that the rebel army is without an effective cavalry force. Lee's only remaining line of supply is by railroad from Richmond to , Lynchburg, fully 100 miles, thence to Gordans vine, 100 miles farther, and thence by wagons to his line on the Ta (held by him on Saturday) winch is not less than 35 miles farther— making a line- of supplies of -35 miles, and that constantly . exposed. We hype to hear that Sigel has cut the Virginia Central road at or near - Charlottesville. He was at 'Woodstock a week ago, and if_ he reaches Charlottesville, 1 -- o Lee is entirely without a lin f supplies, while Sheridan is master of the rods-to his rear, and nova single wagon train ,c n reach - him. It would seem impossible the fore fore for Lee to hold his present position for even a week and he must either hazard his army in a desperate as sault to break Grant's lines and capture supi , pies, and he must retreat ingloriously South of his capital. To enter the Richmond entrench ments with his present army, would be 'certain starvation and capture. In the meantime Gen. Averill has cut the Tennessee road near the Virginia line, and this prevents all demonstra tions of the rebels toward East Tennessee, and Schofield has left Knoxville to a small garrison, while he has marched to join Sherman in his movement against Johnson. Last week Dalton was given up to our advancing columns without a contest, 'and Johnson has doubtless gone to Atlanta to make a last defeulr, for their vast shops and stores there - and for the defence of Mobile. —Such is a brief record of two weeks devot ed by our noble armies to the execution of the grand combinations of Gen. Grant, and the cir cle of substantial success seems complete. The Army of tilt Potoniac is- being largely re inforCed, and of Grant's early and victorious _march to Richmond, we do not now entertain a doubt! All honor to the glOrious Chief and his noble warriois, who have given victory and life to the RepulJic!
