New York, Cth. The Herald's corres-

the lilt Our line of battle extended ten
mites In length, front nurthwrst tu south
eust. Hancnck wss on the Mecbanlrtvllt
rnud, In rifit-plts wrested from the erwray
two days U.-fnr. Hurnslde next to Han
cock s Warren In fre-il, pentected by don
ble and triple lints of bn-uslworks. Wright
wss marched to the lelt with tKodlvisioiti.
Sheridan's cavalry on front nnd flank. A a,
attempt was made by the rebel infantry
early In the day to drive our cavalry from
Cold Harbor, which resulted in their re
pulse and losing a large number In killed
and ivounded and about 300 prlsuntrt,
General Wright followed up the lucceis,
bringing on nn engagement which listed
until an hour after dark. A I lint lime we
had cirriid a line of rifle-pits and driven
the i-hfinv to Chlckahomlny. The rebels
made rurfous assaults later In the etcnlng
on our center and right, tnsrchlng In three
lines upon Warren, nnd seemed determined
to pierce our center nnd throw our line Into
confuilon. Attempt after attempt wm
made, nnd the enemy were hurled back with
great lot. The battle thus raged fur lltrei'
hours In front ol this corps. Oar losses
can only be o tithe of what the enemy suf.
fered. The attack on Jlanrock was nearly
simultaneous. He not only rrpuUed tlio
enemy, but pressed them back so far that
he was thrown Into a bad position, nnd
compelled to retreat and resume thegrouud ,
occupied nt the outset. He was snlisei
qtirntly ordered io nbandon his posit ou
and more Ms corps from the right of our
line to the extreme left.
Another comypondeot says of the fight
at Coldwatrr I The enemy were ip heavy
force at Gaines' Mill, and strongly rii
Irenchtd nt Ihe end of Douse Woods. At
half past Tour troops were Irt position In
