It is reported from Africa, that Jules Gerard the explorer was drowned while crossing a rive1. Coburn, aecempanied by his friends, per senally demanded from the. stake hdlder the stakes for the intended fight, on-the ground that he was at the place fixed for the fight, while Mace failed to appear. The esake-holder explained that Coburn could have no claim, owing to the non-fulflament of conditions as to a referee, and unless some mutual agreement could be come to, the affir was a draw, Coburn expressed his wish to Aght, but only in Ireland, or failing in that.then in Canada. tp.

No attack was made during the day, further than to drive in his pickets and cavalry inside their main work. Our cas ualties are light, probably less than 200 in killed, wounded and missing. The same is probable with the enemy. We captured 7 loaded teeams on their way from Stone's Creek, and from 75 to 100 prisoners. On our right Butler extended round well tow ards the 'orktown road without finding any point unguarded.

Scouts reported large numbers -of rebels passing Dresden, Trenton, Lex ington, Shady Grove and McLernorarville; allwithin fifty miles of Mayfield. A large amount of supplies are being accumulated at McLerborsville. The rebel Gen. Buford with eight regiments, three battalions and a battery of Dahlgren guns, is at Shady Grove. Orders have been issued for con centrating their forces on the Tennessee line preparatory to the marching on Pade eah. Forrest, Chalmers, and Buford, are in command. All business is suspended. Paducah goods are removed to a place of safety, and every preparation is made for an attack. IHpadquarters Army Potomac, on the field, 2 th, 9 p. m. The lons looked for advance of the arm ies operating against Richmond has at last taken place. Yesterday the final prepara tions were completed by the withdrawal of the greater par: of the army of the Poto mac from trenches, and massing it on the rear ready for the move. The first division of the 2d corpe held the entire line from the Appomattox on the right to some three miles west of the Weldon railroad on the left. All the baggage wagons, etc., were sent to the rear at City Point. At 2 o'clock this morning Hancock, with the 2d and 3d divisions of his corps, moved along the Vaughn road running southward. After crossing NaMhez Run he found the rebcls entrenched in newly made works. He at once charged on the flank and drove them out and took 20 prisoners--mostly cavalry. the 5th corps took the Squirrel Level road and found the rebels posted at its junction with the Duncan road, which runs north from the Vaughn road to the Baynton road. lFrom this they were driven by our skir mishers. with some loss, the 1st division having about forty wounded. The 3d di vision of this corps took the advance, and crossing Natchez Run, connected with the 2nd corps. In the meantime Hancock ad nt.ced along a by road, driving the rebels fýforb him, till he reached the Baypton plank road, where the column halted and formed in line of battle, the left reaching some distance west of the road, and the ight extending to a thick woods on the ight. The 6th corps had also advanced through the woods two miles, but the left failed to connect with the right of the 2nd corps.3The rebels fell back while we advanc ed until the line reached Natchez again, when the rebels were found behind strong entrenehments. Brisk firing ensued without much loss on either side. At about 4 o'clock, p. m., the rebels taking advantage of the break in our line between the 2nd and 5th corps, massed Anderson's division of 1ill's corps, and charged the right wing of the corps, which gave way and fell back a short distance, but being reinforced charged and cheeked the advance of the rebels and captured a number of prisoners. Our loss in the affair is not known, but igi 4it believed to be heavy. A few rnia utes.after the rebel cavalry, which had been cut off on the Baynton road, mnade an attack on Gregg's division directly in the rear of the 2nd corps, and for a time, quite a sharp skirmish was kept up. Gregg finally drove them off. In a charge made on the and corps, two guns were said to be taken by~ the rebels, but it is stated that they were subsequently' re-captured. Fighting con tinned on this point of the line until after dark, whtl a heavy rain ended the fghting for the dtay. The9th oorpe'ocapied the right of' the advance, but did not gain much groundl' ehe object was to allow the left to ge t fri.r' ly areund on the Boynton Plank Road be tire the iight advanced.

Sheridan's magnificet victory o'the 19th instant, was such a erusher to the Iabels that Richmond editors are'making depeis ate endeavors to believe it. The Enquirer in alluding to the turpin~ point in the battlo says : One of bae' imoss brilliant victories of the war had beo'~wi ed by our troops, but in an evil botr, when a portion of our men were plundering the property they had captured, a small force of Yanaee cavalty opened on odra left fank, when the plunderers took fight, and thiu our whole army was thrown into a.pyio and fled in a disorganized condition. , 1ill it argues that this defeat is only aº tempo rary disaster, and no solid results are it tained by it for Sheridan. - Disgraceful though it was for us, the rebel cavalry espeeially are abused in strong terms for their conduct' on the ocea sion.
