Preston, of the Ist:cavalry, kliled; Col. Benjamin, 8th New York cavairy, seriously wounded; Gen. Stannard, of the isth SorP ss was seriously wounded, yesterday (Fri- ay.) , “Our entire loss, in killed, wounded, and missing, during the three days operations around Cold Harbor, will not exceed, accord- ing to the adjutant general's report, seven thon- sand five hundred. “This morning (Saturday, June 4) the ene- my’s left wing, in front of Burnside, was found to have been drhwn in during the night. * Colonel Cessnola, in command of five thou- sand men, arrrived here yesterday having marched from Port Royal. “Telegraphic communication between Oher- ry Shoes. and Fortress Monroe continues inter- ru, despatch from General Sherman dated yesterday, June 4,9a.m., thirteen miles west of Marietta, reports that his left is now weli around, covering all roads from the south to the railroad about Ackworth.

When Barlow’s division charged the enemy’s works early this morning, he succeeded in get- ting possession of seventeen guns, besides the prisoners he took, about 250; but not being sup- | ported, and subjected to an enfilading fire, he ‘was compelled to evacuate the works he had £0 gallantly taken and abandon the guns, His Ipeacwras very severe, amounting toabont eight undred. Gen. Warren’s corps on the right was at- } taccked this atternoon by a heavy force of the enemy, but the enemy were handsomely re- pulsed with sevese loss. The 18th corps were engaged in skirmishing most of the day, and made a charge ona por- tion of the line in their front, but were unable to hold it. They fell back in good order to their former position. The 6th corps, on the Isft of the 15th, haye been engaged more or less all day, and have suffered a good deal for the past two days. An attack on the left of the 2d corps, supposed for the purpose of feeling our left, was made an hour ago es ™m.,) but the enemy was soon driven off. The loss is not known. A captain of cavalry was captured a day or two ago while trying toraily his men. He was greatly excited and cursed his men ata terrible rate, saying the whole Southern cavalry were worthless, and it was no use trying to fight any more. Our losses for the last two days at Coal Har- bor will bumber over five thousand in killed snd wounded, whilethe enemy’s will be nearly the syme. The change of position to-day has been very little, our advance being abouta mile beyond Coal Harbor. THE WAR IN GEORGIA. Severe Fight on the 25th ult.—The Enemy » Finally Driven_ Cincinnati, Junc 5—The Commercial has gpcounts trom Gen. Sherman’s army up to the Sist ult. There was asharp and bloody fight on the 25th between Hooker’s corps and the rebel Gen. Hood’s command, near Dallas. The bat- tle began atS p.m. The 2d division, General Williams, drove the enemy from his first line of works for a distance of two miles. This di- vision was soon relieved by the Ist and 3d di- visions, Gens Geary and Butterfield, who ad- vanced steadily under a terrible fire of mus- ketry. They proceeded to within forty yards of a concealed battery, which opened upon them with a sudden and murderous discharge of grape and canister. The Ist division, in this charge, lost 900 men. The battery was finally silenced, and the en- emy driven away. But few prisoners were taken on either side. Our loss was probably greater than the ene- shai ameunting to about 1,500. ‘he substantial fruits of the day’s work was agsin of two miles of ground, giving us a fa- vorable position, two pieces of artillery, and a better arrangement of the line for subsequent cperations. On the 26th a general engagement was ex- pected, but McPherson’s corps did not come up. There was a good deal of skirmishing with musketry. Prisoners report that reinforcements had in- creased Johnston’s army to 70,000. On the 27th there was a severe fight on the Jeft. Wood's division and Scribner’s brigade of Johnston’s division lost 400 men. On the 28th there was heavy picket firing. On the 29th the rebels made a night attack, but were repulsed with heavy loss. IMPORTANT FROM MISSOURI, Activity of Querrill: St. Lovis, June 5.—Despatches received by Gen. Ewing from Col. Rogers, commanding at Cape Girardeau, state that the enemy are un- usually active in that portion of the State. Col. McLane reports that on the night of the 2d, 200 guerrillas camped near Pstterson. He ae he ore of putt pen fae look after them. force of gut las is reported at Cane Isl- and, and another at Doniphan. Colonel Rogers thinks the movement of the guerrillas are intended to cover an attack on some important point, and that McOrea will probably make an attack on Patterson. A message from Capt. Ewing, of Bloomfield, says: ‘The guerrillas have destroyed the tele- graph near Charleston, and swear that they intend to keep it down.” A despatch from Colonel Rogers, dated Cape Girardeau, June 3, says: #A whole company of guerrillas have crossed theriver and vetpen and were within eight miles of there last nigh’ They have cutthe telegraph wire between here and New Madrid.” 4 The presence of these bands of guerrillas is accounted fot by the abandonment of Bates- ville and Jacksonport by the Union troops, leaving the country open to the rebels. orn TTLE OF COLD HARBOR. pear date arses t oi Thuftday—The Enemy De- Opertedby Gen, ‘Wright—Brilliant Cavalry Combats. ‘ ‘Correspondence Philadelphia Inquirer.

Gen. Wright formed his corps a.rocs the Gaines Mills road, with Rickett’s divi the 3d) on the right, Russell’s division (the ist) joining Ricketts, and Neill’s (2d) diyiston on theextreme left. Smith's corps took posl- tion on theright of the Sth. Skirmishers were thrown out, and a numberot batteries were brought up and put in position at fa, orable points near the Gaines Mills road. Heavy artillery firing and some skirmis*ing commenced soon after 4 p.m.,and in tho meaa- time the preparations for battle were busily going forward tothe rear. Atabout6y p. m2 heavy volleys of musketry began to mingle their sound with the tooming of artillery. 10 was an advance of our line—a charge upon the enemy’s position. Our line of battle, ai leastthatof the Sir*h Corps, was formed under eover of & narrow strip of woods, which served to conceal ovr movements from the enemy. Advanct through this we came on open greund, & fighting very soon commeneed. General Rne- sell’s division, which was nexton the rigud, was very hotiy engaged.

On the left of Russeil’s Division was the Third Division, under Gen. Ricketts. This diyision was eminently successfa). Parsing through the strip of woods above mentioucd, behind which they tormed, they advan: ¢ over an open fleld, across & swampy Dotto, and ona wooded hill beyond descried tha re..2 entrenchments, to the shelter of which the ea- emy retired on their advance. A charge was. immediately ordered. The men adyancei wth fixed bayonets, worked their way through ing peding felled timber and abattis, and gallantly carried the works in spite of the studborn re. sistance and well-directed fire of a determines foe. Five hundred prisoners were taken @ once, and within less than five minntes 160 more were afterwards captured at} yarious. parts of their line. On the right of the Sth corps, Gen. Smith, with the Isth, was entirely successfcl, t= the enemy’s line of entrenchments in fror his entire line, and holding them. The rebrfs made several attempts during the night to ~e~ take their captured works, but were repulsed The troops opposed to nsembraced Peay 4 gard’s corps, and a part, if not all, of Lung- street's and Hill's. Onr entire loss in this engageme:t must have been about 2/00, The woundedin ie 6th corps numbered about S00, Ruse: li’s db vision 4(0, Rickett’s 300 and Neill’s ((). The Killedand missing would doubtless swell the number to more than 1.000. In the i#th corps the wounded numbered about 700, and the te'.t loss of the corps could nothave been roneh less than 1,000. This morning the 2d corpe arrived at(id Harbor, and proceeded further to the leit, with the intention oi crossing the Chickahow- iny at Sumner’s Bridge. The moyement yas- terday was doubtless the initiatory step to aa~ other grand flank movement, and if the sue- cess of the latter is commensurate with ihe success of its beginning, we may shortly ex- pect to see great resulis.

The enemy re- fused to let him pass through their lines or to hold any conference with them. Ho was stopped before he ever reached Fortress Moa- roe, on his way to Washington.
