Grant and Meade, having sent off their lying bulletins in regard to the engagement at Reams's station, seem to be quietly reflens has not yet transpired. We venture the prediction, however, that they found the situation unchanged. It is true that Grant derives no advantage from occupying and holding the railroad, but then he has convinced all Yankeedom that it was the mosnce, we believe that he still holds the road in force, and means to remain there — if he can. Another report is that Grant is moving troops to the right, either with the intention of reinforcing Butler or of making another feint on the north sicapture Richmond, and so will they prove in the future. It is further reported that a raiding party has started from Grant's army through Dinwiddie county, and have reached the vicinity of the Court-house. Not much confidence is placed in this

ot much confidence is placed in this report, though we need not be surprised to hear of such an enterprise being set on foot by the enemy at any time. Doubtless our authorities are fully prepared to meet and repel any movement of this nature. On Wednesday morning (says the Express) a dismounted detachment of Colonel Griffin's Eighth Georgia cavalry regiment, Dearing's brigade, charged the enemy's outposts, near Davis's house, on the Weldon railroad, captured five prisoners belonging to Warren's Fifty army corps, killed two and drove the rest — some one hundred and fifty--in a perfect stampede, nearly half a mile back to their supports.

true that Grant derives no advantage from occupying and holding the railroad, but then he has convinced all Yankeedom that it was the most magnificent strategic movement of the campaign, and it would not be safe for his reputation to undeceive the people by abandoning his position in a hurry.--Hence, we believe that he still holds the road in force, and means to remain there — if he can. Another report is that Grant is moving troops to the right, either with the intention of reinforcing Butler or of making another feint on the north side of the James. This may be true; but the manœuvre last named has already been repeated several times, and the attempts of the enemy to deceive our commanding general have proved as futile as his efforts to capture Richmond, and so will they prove in the future. It is further reported that a raiding party has started from Grant's army through Dinwiddie county, and have reached the vicinity of the Court-house. Not much confidence is placed in
