sterday was the following dispatch from the correspondent of the Associated Press, which, by the cutting of the telegraph wives, had to come a very circuitous route. It will be seen that it is not later than Gen. Lee's last dispatch, and refers to the same fight alluded to in that: Battle Field, near Spotsylvania C. H.,via Louisa C. H., May 11. There was heavy cannonading all yesterday. About 12 o'clock, the enemy having got possession of the road leading to the main road to Louisa Court House, with a large force, Heth's Division was sent to drive them off, which was accomplished with but slight loss to us. Our troops drove the enemy back some three or four miles, and out of their lines of breastworks, capturing one piece of artillery, one caisson, and some one hundred and fifty prisoners. Among those wounded on our side, was Brigadier General H. H. Walker, of Virginia, whose foot has been amputated. Between 10 o'clock and nightfall the enemy made repeated as
a sufficient force and sent them in pursuit. With what success he has pursued them you doubtless know more than I do. Towards night a warm fight ensued near the bridge over the river. The losses were slight, and the results unimportant. All day Monday our pioneer corps was busy at work, and at night our position was believed to be one of great strength. Early yesterday morning it was ascertained that the enemy were moving around on our left flank, as if to seize the road leading to Louisa C H. Just before day Gen. Early, who was in command of A. P. Hill's corps, moved to meet the enemy, taking with him Heth's division. He engaged the enemy on or near the Louisa C. H. road. The enemy were in heavy force. Our men drove them back from three lines of quite formidable breastworks, capturing three lines of breastworks, one gun and one caisson and about one hundred and fifty prisoners, including some of their wounded. We would have captured more of their guns and more prisoners,

One had it that 15,000 Marylanders had joined the command of a distinguished fellow-citizen of theirs who accompanied our forces; and another that 8,000 had enlisted under his command. As the "risings" in Maryland during former invasions of our troops have not been of a very formidable or determined character, it is more than likely that the present rumors have their real foundation in the ardent desire of our people to see the men of that noble old State make a co-oper

he Valley open, this officer advanced in the direction of Staunton, it being his object to capture Lynchburg, and thus perform a part in the grand operations by which Grant hoped to isolate Richmond. Encounter defeated it after a severe battle, in which General Jones was killed. He then proceeded to Staunton, and afterwards to Lexington, burning and destroying as he went. Sheridan, having set out with the intention of joining him through Charlottesville, was met at Trevillian's depot, in Louisa, by General Hampton, and utterly routed. He was driven back to the lower country, and, after sustaining another defeat in Charles City, crossed over the river. We must go back a little. Simultaneously with Grant's movements in Spotsylvania, a large land and naval force, under Beast Butler, passed up from Old Point, landed at City Point, took possession of Bermuda Hundred, and endeavored to capture Petersburg and the Port Walthall railroad. In these attempts they were thwarted by the
