A Lieuteiiaut t.d twelve men reached here vesterdsv. They tell the usual stories of the demoralization and speedy desertion of the rebel 1 army. 1 bousauds they say are iesvwig oa account of not receiving any pay while their families sre starving, and they arc determined to stay in the rebel service no longer under any circumstances , General Park is now in command of the 'Jth corps Additional particulars have been received of the action of Sunday Part of the 2d and 10th corps were engt god with the enemy in the morning near Deep Rot torn The lflih corps under Gen.

It as found impossible to ;toss the raviue and our rr.er. were halted and lay concealed ae I well a ossible until dark, when they were with- , drawn. The '21 division lost at least 300 men in the engagement. The 1st ind 2d divisions which were in uppoft, lost about 250 lrom rebel artillery. The wounded were all brought off. Our troops still hold their position in front of the rebl wotks which are very strung and well defended, ow ing to the nature of the country in the vicinity.

Grant Operations. Nkw York, August 17 Interesting details of the movements of Gen. Grant's last Sunday show that the main line of the rebel works ex tend along a commanding ridge crowued by formidable earthworks all along the crest. Iu front of this maiu defensive line, however, a series of rifle pits, intended as a strong skirmish lite, proem that it was designed M un effective obstacle to our advance. Early in the moruing a portion of the troops on the left under cormuaud of Gen. Birney, ru.-hed onward, charging in gallant style, and almost wit . out firing a shot drove the enemy lrom bis r.tle pits, capturing about 100 prisoners, among whom were officers aud privates from ten different regimentTbe enemy retreated iutö their main entrenchments. Daring the afternoon our troops drove the enemy trom an important position at the junction of the Kingslsnd and Newmarket roads, ou the toule to Richmond, und the Foster brigade by a charge captured the rebel guns from Strawberry Pl iii s. Other troops advauced on the roads leading tow nds Richmond. The cavalry under Greg: took the Charter City rosd, where, alter a sharp engagement, the Hü rapt on rebel legion was driven in considerable cou'usiou, retiring at lust in a northerly direction. Eiriy in the evening Gen. Barlow with a portion of i.a command charged our ride pita and took them. The enemy resisted stubbornly with musketry and artillery, but our men assaulted a position i - '! t of insulated crest, and took and now hold it. Our position is such that Lee must recall his force operating north under Early, and in addition must come out aud fight iu front of his works this week or wholly retire within the Richmond delen.-es From 3 civ York. i.w Yotk, Angus! 17. The Post WsslV ington spec al says: Advices lrom Deep Bottom up to yesterday morning announce that Gen. Grant's lines hare been advanced withiu seven miles of Richmond. There was considerable fighting during the day in wh cii iht ic'iels weie invariably driven bactx. The Commercial's tpecial says: A division of the 5th corps landed at Deep Bottom this nomine, Adrices were received here to-day from Sheridan's department that Farly is at Strasburg.

His sn success is only a question of time. The steamer contir entul arrived here this m mine from James river, hiring ou board the 1st Regiment United State- Volunteers numbering one thousand men. This organization is formed exclusively of rebel prisoners and deserters It is the only body of troops iu the i-ervice OOBSnon1 entirely of Southern soldiers. The Commercial's Wa.-hington special says: The flitik movement on the north side of James river wis progressing finely yesterday morning. The enemy's works had been turned and they fell hick to a stroncer position den. Sheridan has fallen back to Winchester where he will fortify him-elf and act on the ue fen-ive.
