The loss of the enemy in killed alone was greater than this number. He accomplished the purpose for which he was sent into he State by Gen. Johnston, and with much less loss than might have been expected under the circumstances. On the 30th of March, Col. Cluke, of Gen. John Morgan's command, attacked the enemy at Mount Sterling. Their pickets were soon driven in, and their whole force took refuge in the houses of the town, from which they opened fire on our men--Col. Cluke, in order to dislodge them — being with out artillery — found it necessary to fire one or two buildings, which communicated to other, until a whole square was consumed.

From the Southwest. Dalton, March 30. --Our latest advices from the front represent the enemy inactive. No reinforcements are arriving there. Two regiments of Illinois troops were mustered out of service at Oklawaha yesterday — they were relieved by two others. The weather still remains unsettled, and indications are that we shall yet have some rough weather, which will interrupt military operations, and probably prevent the campaign from opening before the middle of April.

men, ceased firing, when our troops proceeded to the assault and carried the place. In a few minutes, and with small loss, 250 prisoners, eight heavy guns, and two field pieces, fell into our hands, and all the munitions of war. The main body of the enemy, 5,000 strong under the rebel General Walker, made their escape. Highly important from Grant's Army. That very soft people, the Yankees, are reading news dispatches such as this we find in the New York Herald, dated Washington, March 30th. The effort seems to be to "push up the man on horseback" into the niche of a hero before they know whether he will fit or not: Accounts from the field represent the greatest enthusiasm prevailing in the Army of the Potomac in favor of Gen. Grant. His quiet, unassuming, and unpretentious style pleases all. He refuses special trains and cars for his exclusive use, and says he requires but one seat. His notions of economy in transportation preclude the occupation of a whole car for o

sert this fact. "Both prisoners and deserters state that the enemy's intention is to strike the Southside railroad--probably at the junction. These statements are so uniform as to cause some credence to be placed in them. The prisoners state their loss to be very heavy. "It is supposed that the battle will be renewed to-day unless the enemy intrenches and assumes the defensive." Another account. Yesterday evening's Whig contains the following telegram: "Petersburg, March 30--10 P. M.--A heavy fight has been progressing all day in Dinwiddie, near Hatcher's run, eight miles from Petersburg. "Nothing official has been received here, but reports, up to five o'clock, deemed reliable, state that three furious assaults were repulsed. "At half-past 2 o'clock the enemy came up in overwhelming numbers, and drove Bushrod Johnson's division one mile and a half. "The Confederates were then reinforced, which turned the tide of battle.
