The C'incinnnati G< zette rc- I ferring to Vallandigham says; There was a ludicrous caution and ! exact timing in this, n.i if lie was fear . ful that ii'it wjy known that he had | returned a moment before he began his speech was to put his case solely j on the ground of the right to discuss | public affairs—to criticise the acts | of the Administration, accompanied with ostcntaticus protestations of his | entire aubmissiveness to all legal proceedings, and his ardent desire to stand a jury trial. Having cliang- I ed his case to this base and put it in a way to be published to the world, I he then expected to be again arrested, j His wild bravado was intended to be just sufficient to taunt the. Govern j ment to this, without giving it any j cause. Then the smoke of a new i political martyrdom was to blind the J eyes of the party, raise a new exeitc ! merit, and force him on the Chicago Convention for Vict; President, per ' haps even for President. And as i capital in hand for this ho represents j to the party throughout the country ! that the Ohio Democrats who voted i for him before under the duress of j the party nomination are all his vas- I sals for life. The Commercial says: The fact seems to be about this: Vallandigham was content to remain i in exile, so long as distance lent en ' rhantmeiit to the view taken of him : I by his followers, and he found that ' his absence from Ohio gave him more ! notoriety that his presence in the j State would be likely to yield. But I latterly ho has found Jiimself in the 1 way of being forgotten. Ilis own I party expressly disown his leadership in the late State Convention. The j ten cent subscription dried up, and ' all the money that could be scraped i together for him. being invested in I British funds, there was no likeli : hood of farther pecuniary emolument j - incidental to exile.

He had rajitureda line of entrench- BWBtB at Uc.iii v's hon.se, the colored troops assaulting and carrying the rifiepits with j great gallantry, but he had not yet ear | ried the main line.

At 7:20 p. in.yesterday, Smith assaul | ted and carried the principal line of the I enemy, before Petersburg, taking thir | teen cannon aud several stands of colors, and between three and four hundred ! prisoners. This line is two miles from j Petersburg. Hancock moved up and j took his possition on Smith's left. To i day there heavy firing in that direction I from five to six o'clock.

The ; hardest fighting was done by black troops. | The forts they storme were the worst. Af ter the affair was over Maj. Gen. Smith went to thank them, and tell them that he wasproudof their courage and dash. lie says they can't be exceeded as soldiers, and hereafter he will send them in a diffi cult place as readily as the best white j troops. They captured six out of the six teen cannon which lie took. The prison ; ors he took were from Beauregard's corn j mand. Some of fhnm said they had just | crossed the James above Drury's Hluff I do not know whether ana of Lee's army : had reached Petersburg when Smith stormed the place. They seem to be making arrangements to hold the west i fide of the Appomattox. The town they I cannot thiuk of holding, as it lies dircct i ly under ourgune. The weather is splendid. MAimiKn.
