Explosion of an infernal machine. The attempt to kill A. Hoveler, of Pittsburg Pa., by means of an infernal machine, on Saturday night last, has been noticed. The Pittsburg Post gives the following particulars of that extraordinary case: About eleven o'clock, the residents not only of Lawrenceville, but some in Alleghany and Pittsburg, were aroused by a terrible explosion, which seemed to be continuous and reverberative, lasting several seconds. Investigation proved that the explosion originated from an infernal machine, which had been placed in the window-sill of a room in the lower part of Mr. Hoveler's house. The room contained two beds, one occupied by Mr. Hoveler and wife, and the other (a trundle bed), by two children. Mr. Hoveler had only retired about half an hour before, having been sitting at the window where the machine was placed awaiting the arrival of a physician, who had been sent for to minister to a member of the family then ill.--The occupants of the r

uitous route to Trotter's Store, in Brunswick, and into the edge of Lunenburg. From Trotter's Store they went to Lawrenceville, where they found a quantity of county salt, all of which they emptied into the road and drove their wagons and teams There was a good deal of depredation, but no burning of houses or other outrages on private property. They reached Lawrenceville Sunday evening, when the sun was about an hour high, staid there all night, and left about 7 o'clock Monday morning, h he regularly reters to. He asked a great many questions about the county — how far it was to Stony creek, Belfield, Lawrenceville, &c. He appears to be a middle aged man. At Wilson's Depot, Speare took off his hat and asked those present if they h, and said that they lost a few men there, which caused them to change their course. They got hold of an Express at Lawrenceville and laughed heartily at its contents, saying that it was stuffed with rebel lies, &c. Mr. Derby was told by one
them at some points. His cavalry, after being repulsed at Staunton river bridge, on the afternoon of the 26th, retired in the direction of Christiansville, where they encamped that night. The next, morning they continued their march cowards Lawrenceville, by way of Burnsville, and a part of them encamped last night about eight miles northwest of the former place. They appear to be making their way back to the main body of the army. Very respectfully, etc., R. E. Lee, General. Christiansville, mentioned in the foregoing dispatch, is in Mecklenburg county, about twenty miles southeast of Staunton river bridge. From Christiansville a road leads due east to Lawrenceville, in Bruns wick county. That the yankees were on their way back to the main body of their army, as surmised by Gen. Lee, seems very probable. In the passage of the enemy through Nottoway they swept the county of horses, mules and negroes. One citizen that we have heard of was, however, exempted fr
From Petersburg. Petersburg, June 29. --A prisoner who was brought in to-day reports that a portion of our cavalry engaged the front of Wilson's cavalry at Dinwiddie Court House yesterday, in a hot engagement, in which the enemy's loss was 40 wounded. It was supposed from his statement to have been a Confederate success. It is also said that part of Wilson's force was at Lawrenceville, Brunswick county, last night, trying to get out towards the Weldon Railroad. There has been a cavalry fight below here to-day near Ream's Station, but the results are unknown. In front the situation is unaltered.
n this route; for, instead of meeting cavalry, they found the inevitable and ubiquitous Mahone supporting and sustaining the cavalry. Gen Mahone with Saunders's Alabama and Flanagan's Florida brigades, left camp about two o'clock on Wednesday morning, and by a rapid march reached Ream's Station about daylight. Here they quickly formed with Saunders's left resting on the railroad, and his right joining on to Finnegan, whose right rested on the stage road by Dinwiddie Court-House, to Lawrenceville, in Brunswick county. On the right of Finnegan, was Fitz Lee's cavalry. About daylight, or a little thereafter, the enemy's cavalry, principally Couch's brigade, advanced in line of battle. Gen M had intended to ambuscade the enemy, but by the neglect of an officer, the artillery were not instructed to reserve their fire, and so they opened upon the enemy as soon as they came in sight. The enemy did not advance very far, but reclad and staggered back, and finally retreat The enemy,
