[from our own correspondent.] Fredericksburg, May 16, 1863. I have received the New York Herald, of the 14th inst., and send you a summary of its contents. A dispatch in the Herald, dated May 13th, says: Gen. Grant had a severe battle with Gen. Bowen at Clinton, ten miles from Jackson, on the railroad, last Wednesday, lasting all day Gen.

Grant, dated the 6th inst., when his force was on the Big Black river, which says nothing whatever of having had an engagement on the day when, according to a rebel telegram, it was alleged he was replaced. A skirmish between a party of sixty mounted rebels and a detachment of Union troops occurred on Tuesday, between Franklin and Woodburn, Ky., on the railroad, in which the former were routed and driven back, our forces still pursuing them at last accounts on that night. The rebels in front of Murfreesboro', Tenn., continue to exhibit symptoms of activity, which keep the army of Gen. Rosecrans on the qui vive. . The cavalry of the enemy is constantly changing its position.
