The dispatches in the Yankee papers are curiosities in their way. The New York Herald, of Saturday, professes to give the very latest news, and to be ahead of its contemporaries. One of its dispatches, dated Baltimore, 3d, 10 P. M., says that Meade had driven Lee, four miles northeast of Gettysburg. This is followed by a dispatch, dated Hanover, Pa., 4th, 1 A. M., three hours later, which says Lee had been driven only three quarters of a mile. A telegram in the Philadelphia Inquirer, which the telegrapher says is a "brief and candid statement," says the Yankees were "repulsed, overpowered, and outflanked," on Wednesday, but on Thursday repulsed the rebels with "substantial success." On that evening he says Gen. Meade called a council of his corps commanders, and it was resolved to continue the fight so long as there was any one left to fight. A dispatch about Friday's fighting, dated at midnight, states that the fighting was fearful, and mildly adds: "We captured more prisoner

ent of the New York World, writing from before Vicksburg on the 26th ult., gives an account of the bombardment of the day before and the result of Grant's first experiment in mining Vicksburg. The letter says: The way in which the fort on McPherson's front was exploded is, as we learn from some of the participants, as follows: After the diggers had cut across the middle of the fort, which was a prominent fort, and by reason of our flanking it has been so pierced as to be almost of the par the bottom, prepared for the purpose. This practice has been continued up to this morning. I may here say that our possession of this end of the fort is regarded as complete as that of the enemy to the rest. It is believed, also, by General McPherson and his engineers that. If not too much pressed he can in a day or two establish a battery within the work. The contest still rages, and as both sides are throwing up earthworks, it seems as if we might find at the end of a few days our p

ispatch about Friday's fighting, dated at midnight, states that the fighting was fearful, and mildly adds: "We captured more prisoners than the rebels." This is the only advantage which the correspondent mentions. The 1st corps lost sixty-six per cent. of its men in Thursday's light. Gen. Robinson's division went into the light with 2,500 men, and the rebels let it out with only 896 left. One telegram says that important dispatches have been captured by Capt. Dahlgren from Jeff. Davis and Cooper to Gen. Lee. They indicate anxiety for the position of Richmond. Both decline to send Lee the reinforcements from Beauregard he asked for.

Next went in the Twentieth Illinois, who kept up a gallant resistance for a half hour, when the Thirty first Illinois, under Lieut. Colonel Resse, went in. subsequently, during the evening and night, the Twenty third Indiana, the Forty sixth Illinois, and the Fifty-sixth Illinois, the latter under its beloved Colonel, Melanethon Smith. The list then commenced again relieving in this same order. The melce at first was terrible, although the losses were not proportionate at all to the noise. The men on both sales were engaged in throwing up temporary works, with a view to getting a light field-piece in position. They had gotten a notched piece of timber rolled up to the top of the rough bank, when smash came a blast from a ten pounder right in their faces, sending the stick of timber right amongst them, singeing
