To Maj. Gen. Dix dispatch from Gen.

It states that : " Yesterday afternoon an attack
was ordered to be made on our left at Cold
Harbor by the 6th Corps, and the troops under
Smith; Warren, Burnside, and Hancock being
held in readiness to advance in their respec
tive fronts. ' The attack was made with spirit
about 5 o'clock P. M., continuing until after
dark, and resulting in our carrying the enemy's
vtorks
,on the right of the 6th Corps, where we
still hold them, and also the first line in front
of Smith. The latter, how - ever, were com
manded in the rear, which made those carried
untenable'. The enemy made repeated assaults,
on each of the corps not engaged in the main
assaults, but were repulsed with loss in every
instance. Several h'undred prisoners were ta
ken, but I cannot say what number, nor esti
mate either our or the enemy's casualties,—
During the night the enemy made several as
saints to regain what they had lost, but failed."

It may be useful to state in this connection that
the total Funded Debt of the:United-States on Which
interest'is payable in gold, on the 3d day sf :March.
1864, was $7.68,97500. The interest on this debt for
the coining fiscal year will be $45,937,136. while the
customs revenue in gold for the current fiscal year
ending June - 30t11,1864, has been so far at the rate
