hursday, the 9th instant. The fight at Hatcher's run — an unfortunate opening of Grant's campaign — he Tries to intercept Lee in Evacuating Richmond. The secret of Grant's movement on Monday last, which resulted in his disaster at Hatcher's run, is published in the Yankee papers. It appears that he had received intelligence that Lee was going South, and made his movement to intercept him. His losses, as they appear to us from the different news letters, were three brigadier-generals--Gregg, of the cavalry, and Morrow and Davies, of the infantry, wounded, and one thousand killed and wounded. One letter puts down the loss in the Second corps at two hundred and fifty, and five hundred in the Fifth corps; that in the portion of the Third corps is not given.

The will not be a difficult job, for there is plenty of timber in the neighborhood, and the men have got so used to work that the regular carpenters at the North would be astonished to witness the rapidity with which whole rows of houses are run up, some of which are models of architectural beauty. Lieutenant-Colonel Fremaine (wrongly reported as Major Tremaine, of General Gregg's staff), of the Tenth New York cavalry, who was badly wounded in the engagement of Monday, died last evening. Colonel Forbes, Commissary of Subsistence, of the cavalry division, who fell from his horse and was badly injured, a day or two since, died this morning. The accident occurred by his horse's foot getting caught between the logs or corduroy, when he fell and was thrown violently against the logs. His skull was badly fractured, and he remained insensible up to, and at
