Yankee Accounts of the Fall of Richmond.
The Alla uta Intelligencer of yesterday bob
tains the following from the Chattanooga
(Yankee) Gazette of the 4lb inst., giving a
very Yankea-iike exaggeration of »i<s affair up
to the 3d instant.
It will be seen that Lincoln figures largely
at City Point, as a telegraphic reporter to the
War Department at Washington. Our readers
know how to make proper allowances for
these boastful dispatches:

and the prospects of effecting a junction with
Johnston, to offer battle at some point, or

At 1:30 p. m. to-day Oca. Grant telegraphed
, to me as follows : “ There has been much hard
: fighting this morning. The enemy drove our
j left from near Dabney’s house back well to
j wards the Boydtown plankroad. We are now
| about to take the offensive at that point, and
I.hope that we will more than recover the lost
ground.'’ He telegraphed again as follows:
“Our troops after being driven back to the
! Boydtown plankroad, rallied and drove the
: etenay in turn, and took the Whiteoak road,
| which we now have.
This gives us the ground occupied by pie

The Petersburg Express says large bodies of
cavalry have been moving towards our right.—
The fact is well known that a large body vs caw
alry moved down the road two or three days since.
It is highly probable that Sheridan, indated by
his recent successes, may attempt something sim
ilar on this side of the Hues. We predict for him
an inglorious defeat. Reliable iQtelligrr.ee from
City Point represents the presence cf fifteen moni
tors aud forty iron clad vessels in the Jasio? river,
besides an innumerable fleet of smaller and less
formidable boats. Since tho attempt of the Con
federates to pass the Yankee obstructions, the
enemy has doubled his vigilance aud largely in
creased his r aval force. Commodore Port*r ia in
oommand of the fleet, and his flag ship or rpies a
prominent position among the Vessels.
