Walker these regiments, in the face of a terrific fire, charged the formidable fortifications of the enemy, and carried them at the point of the bayonet. It was in this charge that General Walker, riding by mistake into the enemy's lines, was captured after his horse was shot, and himself wounded in the foot. Walker's brigade is the same formerly commanded by General Evans, of Leesburg fame. Lieut. Henry C. Howlett, (of Petersburg,) 5th Virginia cavalry, was captured some days since at the house of a relative in Chesterfield. He was on furlough at the time having been wounded some time ago in a cavalry fight near Brandy Station. We continue to receive accounts of the depredations of the enemy in his recent advance through Chesterfield county. Among the sufferers is Mr. G. P.

With the exception of some skirmishing between the working parties on neither side, no event of importance has occurred for the past three days. Our troops still held the enemy in his entrenchments near Bermuda Hundred, where he has ample opportunity to ruminate over the disasters he has experienced during the present campaign. Gen.
