From Petersburg. Petersburg, June 22. --10 A M.--Hancock's Yankee corps yesterday made an attempt to strike the Weldon road, but after getting within hall a mile of it, on Davis's farm, two miles below the city, our artillery opened upon them, and at the same time our infantry came into action, driving the enemy back, capturing some dozen prisoners, and killing and wounding a number of the enemy. Our loss is small. The gallant Col. Harris, of the 12th Mississippi, was severely wounded yesterday by a straggling shot. Grant's whole army is now in our front on the south side of the Appomattox. Nothing exciting is transpiring this morning. [second Dispatch.] Petersburg. June 22, 7 P M.--Two brigades of our army attacked and flanked Hancock's 2d army corps this evening, about two miles south of-this place. The fight began at 2 o'clock. The enemy made considerable resistance, but were driven back fully two miles. Our men captured 1,000 prisoners, inclu

be sheer ingratitude to desert him when he has once more entered upon his old stamping grand and bravely repeated his old treason. It is shrewdly suspected in some quarters that this personage was smuggled into Ohio in the hope that John Morgan would make his raid so success errand over the free hoarder, and that, in response to this pleasant excursion, the Knights of the Colden circle in all the West would rise, arms is band, to help the successful marauders and to unfurl the flag of Jefferson Davis in the States along the Ohio and Mississippi But whether, this is so or not, why not leave Vallandigham "in the hands of his friends?" When they make him their candidate for President, they may take General Fremont for Vice President. There is just now such a harmony between the men who ridiculed and opposed Fremont in 1856, and the very few who are disappointed with Abraham Lincoln, who they no ardently supported in 1860, and it ought to be a very easy matter to induce "the man of des

has heady rendered not less than 20,000 of Grant's army wholly unserviceable since the present campaign commenced. A movement on the Weldon Railroad. Nothing now occurred to disturb the equanimity of our brave boys occupying the trenches until two o'clock, when our mounted videttes discovered the enemy in much force moving around towards the Wellion railroad, on a road which crosses the reils at point about two miles from Butter worth's bridge, and in the immediate vicinity of Wm H Davis's place, at the forks of the Halifax and Vaughan roads. The Yankees engaged in this movement were encountered by a body of North Carolina cavalry, who held them in check until reinforcements came up, both of cavalry and of infantry, when the enemy were speedily driven back, the cavalry alone becoming engaged. The fortunes of war are conceded to be very freckle, but we predict for such of Grant's forces as may attempt to sweep around in that direction the most severe drubbing of the camp
