t will be seen from the telegraphic summary of Northern news that on Yankee newspaper has the honesty to acknowledge that Grant has been whipped in front of Richmond. The truth will gradually leak not withstanding the efforts of the authorities to12th, 5 P. M. Your readers want to know the situation and what has been done as well as what is likely to be done. Grant still confronts Lee without any essential modifications of his since my last letter. He is strongly fortified, and is aon for a in order to fix a shade over his works, when in an infant his head was pierced by a ball and he fell dead. Grant's dead are at last buried. By an arrangement with Gen. Lee, the hours of six and eight o'clock on Tuesday evening last were not aside for this purpose, and were of by Gen. Grant. His wounded were also taken off at the same time. I am happy to inform you that I have it on good authority that Lt. Gen. Longstreet will probably be able to return to duty in the next

n or even to compromise. As to their effect upon Gen. Lee's operations they will have none whatever. They will not gain Grant an inch of ground or a single advantage. Lee has him by the throat, and he will not release him, let him plunge and kickrned, has told the truth, in a modified form at least. It has revealed the fact, so carefully concealed by Stanton, that Grant was badly beaten on the morning of the 3d of June, and although the Herald came instantly to the rescue, it was too late. Grant was not nominated at Baltimore, and Lincoln was. Gold went up to 194½, and Grant stock came down to zero with a run. For our own part we are glad to hear that Lincoln has received the nomination. When some enterprising partisan officer of tGrant stock came down to zero with a run. For our own part we are glad to hear that Lincoln has received the nomination. When some enterprising partisan officer of the Revolution proposed to carry off Sir William Howe from the midst of his army, Washington put his veto upon it at once.--He had no doubt that it was feasible; but Howe had conducted the war as stupidly as it was possible for any man to conduct it,

Herald pitches into the Times, of Tuesday, for the publication of a long account of the battle of the 3d between Lee and Grant. The Times claims that it was the most important battle of the war, confesses that Grant was badly beaten, and that the Grant was badly beaten, and that the rebels were undoubtedly successful.--The Herald says the account was published solely to defeat Grant's nomination for the Presidency, and that it was successful. Gold closed on the 8th at 194¼. A telegram from Sherman, dated Ackworth PassGrant's nomination for the Presidency, and that it was successful. Gold closed on the 8th at 194¼. A telegram from Sherman, dated Ackworth Pass, June 7, 6 P. M, says that he has been to Altoona Pass, and finds it admirably adapted for his purposes — it is the gate through the last or more eastern part of the Alleghenies. He says the enemy is not in his immediate front, but his signals arete through the last or more eastern part of the Alleghenies. He says the enemy is not in his immediate front, but his signals are seen at Lost Mountain and Kenesaw. A dispatch from Grant, dated June 7, 5 P. M, says all has been quiet to-da

Grant's army. A city contemporary not only agrees with us, that Grant's force has been greatly overrated, but from documents in his possession and published in part by him, places it even lower than we have ventured to do. He thinks he can barely muster 90,000 men, infantry, artillery and cavalry, allowing his regiments 500 mGrant's force has been greatly overrated, but from documents in his possession and published in part by him, places it even lower than we have ventured to do. He thinks he can barely muster 90,000 men, infantry, artillery and cavalry, allowing his regiments 500 men each, which he thinks, and which we think, excessive. We are very much inclined to believe he is nearer the truth than we were, and we thought as much at the time we wrote our article, but concluded it would be best to err on the safe side. --We allowed him 115,000 men of all arms, estimating his army when it commenced its marc like an equivalent. In this campaign the casualties of the enemy, as contrasted with ours, have certainly not been loss than five to one--Stanton telegraphs that Grant only lost 7,500 men in the battle around Cold Harbor. The figures ought to be multiplied, we have no doubt, by at least three; but, allowing them to be correct, w

Grant as a Humane man. To the Editor of the Richmond Dispatch: It is right and proper the Army of Northern Virginia should be fully informed of the true character of the man who commands the army now confronting them, and I do not know a better way to do so than by publishing the following facts as they really occurred. A party of thieving Van stopped at the residence of a respectable country gentleman, within twenty miles of Richmond, and finding no person but a lady and some n without food or raiment--Mrs.--had no alternative but to apply to the General in command of her enemies (her residence being within his lines) to allow her some food for her famishing children. To her entreaties, this U (Unmitigated Scoundrel) Grant replied, he expected ere long she would be glad to kill her children and eat them. Men of the South, these are the sentiments of our enemies, and when you again meet the dastard hard — strike home — with a force that make him cry peccavi.

From Gen. Lee's army. Store's Farm, June 12. --There is no change in the relative situations of the two armies, and save an occasional discharge of artillery and active sharpshooting on the part of the enemy, there is nothing doing. Scouts report Grant to be tearing up the York River Railroad. Grant is very heavily fortified on our front, and his lines in some places are within fifty yards of ours. From Gen. Lee's army.
