They left Richmond on Wednesday, 25th, and were near Jackson's army at the time of proceeding across from Hanover county. Subsequently they visited the White House, where they found no enemy, but abundant evidences of his attempt at wholesale destruction before leaving the place. Gen. Lee's house was burnt, with other buildings, and an kirmishes with the enemy, and secured a number of prisoners, losing none themselves, and having no more than one or two wounded during their entire progress.

On Wednesday evening, the 24th the command of Gen. W. H. F. Lee, left this place to unite with the other commands under Gen. J. F. B. Stuart, to, as I presumed, reconnoitre the Yankee army.

Flag of truce. --This morning Lieut. Virginius Bossieux will carry down 500 Yankees, to be placed on board the flag of truce boat, 124 of whom are sick and wounded. Among these are three citizens who have been placed on special parole; one of whom, named Bull, is particularly charged with the release of the son of Col. Larkin Smith, Ass't Q. M. General. N. C. Ball, alluded to above, was a sutler in the Abolition army, and was captured by Gen. Stuart in one of his raids. He exchanged himself for Mr. Sowers, of Clarke county, a constituent of Mr. Boteler, who returned yesterday. He carries with him his son, (and clerk,) captured at the same time, who has given his parole to return in thirty days, unless young Smith be released and permitted to return home. All of the Abolitionists who go to-day were captured at Fredericksburg. Sixty of them, on account of the want of room in the accommodation at 7 o'clock, will start in the mail train at 3, and be detained in Petersburg

ported to have been about twenty five wounded. Some cannonading was heard during the day, the cause of which has not been ascertained. The reports are that Grant proposes to make the White House, on the Pamunkey, his base, but the general impression is that a great battle will be fought before his preparations can be completed. It is reported that the two armies were drawn up in line of battle yesterday, and that Grant is entrenching. Since the death of that gallant cavalier, General J. F. B. Stuart, the cavalry in the Army of Northern Virginia has been apparously without a leader. We are gratified to learn that a dashing officer has been temporarily assigned to the command of these troops, who will doubtless lead them on to fresh deeds of glory. From General Johnston's Army. An official dispatch from General Joseph E Johnston confirms the account of General Cleburne's success on the 28th instant, given by the Associated Press correspondent, and published yesterday.

hmond. A correspondent of the New York Herald gives that paper a summary of Sheridan's raid around Richmond. On the 11th he captured Ashland station, destroyed here one locomotive and a train of cars, and engine-house, and two or three government building containing a large amount of stores; also destroyed six miles of railroad, embracing three culverts, two trestle bridges, and the telegraph wire. About 7 A. M. of the 14th, he resumed the march on Richmond. He found the rebel General Stuart with his cavalry concentrated at Yellow Tavern, immediately attacked him, and after an obstinate contest gained possession of the Brockeitown pike, capturing two pieces of artillery, and driving his forces back towards Ashland and across the north fork of the Chickahominy. At the same time a party charged down the Brook road, and captured the first line of the enemy's works around Richmond. During the night he marched the whole of his command between the first and second line of th
