circulation last night relative to the demonstration above alluded to, one of which was that the enemy actually got inside of the city, and were mowed down by batteries posted in the streets; but nothing was known of this in official quarters. We learned at the War Department that a dispatch was received at 5 o'clock, stating that the enemy had been repulsed, and we have good authority for saying that they got no nearer to the city than the water works. The troops engaged on our side were Dearing's cavalry, a part of Wise's brigade, and the local forces.--Some few of the latter are reported killed, among them Mr. John Friend and Mr. Jones, druggist. The Yankees, at last accounts, were retreating through Prince George. The object of these two raids — starting almost simultaneously on the north and south sides of the river — is obviously to embarrass our transportation and cut off our means of communication. The fight near Staunton. We have received some additional

inflicted more loss on the enemy than we sustained, and that though having been by over whelming numbers compelled to fall back, we lost nothing, but brought off all our artillery and wagons. In addition to the loss of Gen. Jones, it is reported that Col. Alken, of the 52nd Tennessee regiment, was killed, and General Vaughan slightly wounded. The report that Gen. Imboden is missing needs confirmation. The Yankee force under Hunter's command consisted of two divisions of infantry --Couch's and Sullivan's — and four regiments of cavalry. It is stated that two of the infantry regiments were negroes. We have good authority for stating that the enemy entered Staunton on Sunday night, and burnt the Court-House, the railroad depot and water tank. Since the fight at Piedmont, Hunter, it is reported, has been reinforced by Crook with six thousand men, making his entire force thirteen thousand strong. These numbers are probably exaggerated. The enemy still held possession of

ir purpose to attempt a crossing at some of the bridges to this side of the Chickahominy, and thence make their way to James river. The following dispatch from General Lee was received at the War Department at a late hour on Wednesday night: Hdq'rs Army Northern Virginia,June 8, 1864--8 P. M. Hon. Secretary of War: The has occurred.--Two divisions of his cavalry, under General Sheridan, are reported to have crossed the Pamunkey yesterday at New Castle Ferry. Respectfully, R. E. Lee, General. The cavalry force alluded to by Gen. Lee is reported to have encamped Tuesday night on Pollard's farm, near Aylett's, in King William countyGen. Lee is reported to have encamped Tuesday night on Pollard's farm, near Aylett's, in King William county. On Wednesday morning they proceeded on up the Pamunkey, and that night we hear of them at Chesterfield Station, on the Richmond and Fredericksburg railroad, fourteen miles beyond Ashland, and at Colman's Mill, two miles still further on. Various conjectures are indulged in as to the object of this movement, but nothing has up t

e their appearance in front of that city. The local forces first engaged them, and lost five or six killed and about the same number wounded. This engagement took place within our outer line of fortifications. They were subsequently attacked by Wise's brigade and driven back, after which they retired. This was certainly a bold attempt on the part of the enemy. They probably relied upon the assurance of a runaway negro, that Petersburg was ready to surrender, and doubtless expected to enter that a dispatch was received at 5 o'clock, stating that the enemy had been repulsed, and we have good authority for saying that they got no nearer to the city than the water works.
