of of of of of of of of of of of 134 BANGOR DAILY WHIG AND BANGOR oreek by Kneffler and Gibson. Kimball, with his invincible brigade, led the charge upon the works, carrying them about two 1 o'clock, and taking a number of prisoners. Skirmishing continued along the whole line until evening, with a loss of thirty and gaining of numerous advantages. A gap had occurred in our lines for three miles, which was covered on the south bank of the creek a portion of the pickets from Newton's division. On the left of the was concentrated the rest of our army, several divisions, originally on the right, having there early on the morning of the 20th, with a view of strengthening that wing, in the front of which enemy made numerous feints, as to precipitate his whole strength against it.

The enemy thus being, during the morning of Wednesday, the 20th, masked on our left, orders were issued Newton, Hooker and Palmer on the right to advance and close up the gap of three miles above referred to. Newton, on the left, was ordered to move first, protecting the left flank by the creeks; successively Hooker's and Palmer's were to close upon Newton, and establish a new line AS fast as possible in advance of the trenches, which they had constructed 8 half mile south of Peach-tree creek immiately after crossing. Accordingly, about 1 o'clock p. Newton deployed five regiments as skirmishers, and pushed forward, handsomely driving enemy's sharpshooters before them, scattering their skirmishers and reserves. By 3 o'clock p.

he had advanced three-quarters of a mile and carried a prominent ridge in front, on which, after sending fresh skirmish lines forward, he proceeded to establish his division. His troops unflung knapsacks, stacked arms, and fell to erecting a rail barricade with a will. Hooker now advanced from the trenches -Butterfield's division (now commanded by Gen. Ward) on the left, Geary on the centre and Williams on the right. Palmer WAS prepared to close upon Hooker whenever the latter should establish his new line.

The over which the -advance was progressing is partially rolling open, intersected with difficult creeks, and partially covered with dense undergrowth. advance prisoners were captured at different points the line, all of whom unanimously stated that no considerable bodies of the rebels were nearer than a mile and 8 half. They were, beyond doubt, sent forward for this purpose, as not less than onequarter of the entire rebel army were considered within musket shot of our skirmishers at the same time. At twenty minutes to 4 P. and with the celerity of lightning, the rebel host issued forth from their concealment, and massed in enormous columns against Newton, coming on without skirmishers, and with yells whose volume exeeeded any battleshout I ever heard.

Newton's division had but half completed their barricades, and they had barely time to fall into line and seize their guns before the entire rebel column, composed of Walker's and Bates' divisions of Hardee's corps, was within range. The line of pickets guarding the interval between the right and left of our army barely escaped capture by plunging into -tree creek and swimming across. The enemy had struck us at a vital point, where a victory for him might be decisive. Newton had more ground to guard than he could cover by even a single 1 line. For the first few minutes everything seemed trembling in scale.

Newton's left flank was greatly exposed and barely covered his bridge across Peach tree creek. Had it givway there would have been great loss. Our whole right might have been rolled up and forced back to Chattahoochie river. The rebel plan was to destroy our forces on the right, after which the army would be strong enough to confront, if not defeat, the remainder of our army. On the left, long lines of darkeys, with pack-saddles, and other non-combatants, came pouncing across the bridge, with sweat running down in rivulets.

Guards, with fixed bayonets, were placed at the bridge to collect whatever armed stragglers might appear; but none came in spite of the furious charge. None of our troops were stampeded. The rebel column poured down open but series of fields, toward Newton's the the enemy first appeared we left, evidently, aiming at his bridges. At had but two guns in position guarding this vital point, but Capt. Goodspeed, Newton's Chief of Artillery, with splendid quickness, brought up ten more guns, making twelve.

They opened with canister, the gunners working with frantic energy; four guns went into action Newton's right. Up to the moment these on. guns opened, the rebel columns had steadily advanced, engaging Newton's three reduced brigades at terrible odds. It was wonderful how fast the enemy lost his grip when sixteen guns added their blast to the storm of bullets from the infantry.His columns slackened pace, and began to waver and lose their eareful arrangement. In vain the rebel cavalry rode up and down their lines, waving swords and exhorting men not to falter.

In twenty minutes the assault had totally failed and the enemy gave way, retiring in confusion to the woods, from which they emerged, for the rest of the afternoon. They kept up a desultory fire, was returned by our artillery, but they did not venture to renew it again. The rebel Gen. Stevens, commanding a brigade in Walker's division, was killed here.Nearly two hundred rebel dead buried in Newton's front next morning. His brigade did not yield an inch.

Ward's division on Newton's right was struck at the same moment 88 Newton's. He had just halted his men at the foot of the hill for a brief rest. After his skirmishers had made their way to the crest of a wood, they came back to him stating that the enemy was charging over the open field in his front in immense force. Without a moment's hesitation Ward ordered the division to meet the enemy with a counter charge. His men moved up the hill in splendid order, and when they gained the crest, so close upon them were the rebels, that several of the hostile regiments were intermingled.

At such points, the rebels seemed addled by Gen. Ward's bold corps, and were captured without difficulty. On another portion of the line, fighting at close quarters continued for half an hour, but each successive line the rebels was pressed back by the valor Ward's men. At the end of that time, the rebels fell back into a dense forest in the rear completely whipped. So far as Gen, Ward's division was concerned, its trophies are seven battle flags, and three hundred prisoners, including many of the enemy wounded and left on the feld.

Among the prisoners are representatives of sixteen regiments, and he no doubt fought double that number. Ward sent all his and his splendid victory was achieved with available artillery to protect Newton's flank, muskets alone. The charge swept along to the right, striking Geary's division. The Thirty-third New Jersey, which was thrown out to fortify hill in advance of the lines, lost over half in the frat few minutes after the charge. Col.

Barnes' brigade, on Geary's right, was speedily enveloped on the dank and rear, and fell back after a sullen fight to the trenches it occupied in the morning, where was reinforced." The rebels strove to force their way through the gap they had made thus widened, but plack of, our lads tat- COURIER. Withig Courier, WHEELER LYNDE, PROPRIETORS. WH. H. WHEELER, EDITOR.

FOR VICE PRESIDENT, ANDREW JOHNSON, OF TENNESSEE. FOR GOVERNOR, SAMUEL CONY. The Advance on Atlanta--The Battle of Wednesday. We copy the following extracts from the correspondence of the New York Times and Cincinnati Commercial, descriptive of the advance of Gen. Sherman's army upon Atlanta, and the skirmishes and battles which ensued -bringing the record of army movements up to last Thursday's date, viz: July 21: After having successfully crossed the Chattahoochie, on Monday morning, July 18th, the whole line advanced, McPherson on the left, Schofield in the left centre, Howard in the centre, Hooker in the right centre, and Palmer on the right.

The Fourth Corps encountered Williams' Kentucky brigade of Creek, cavalry at three miles Johnston's from the house, river. near The Minnie rebel els opened with artillery and carbines, but were driven back by the skirmishers and Goodspeed's Ohio battery in thirty minutes, killing a rebel Lieutenant Colonel, and wounding twenty men. Our loss was six wounded. On being driven out, the cavalry retreated across Minnie Creek, and burned the bridges. A stand was made on the south side, but our skirmishers swam the stream a and drovethem out in disorder.

No more opposition was encountered, and the Fourth Corps arrived at Buckhead at four o'clock in the afternoon, where the line of battle was formed in hastily prepared works, and a halt made for the night. At dark Hooker's main forces arrived and took a position on the right of the Fourth Cerps. Schofeld had moved on parallel, and encountered but slight opposition. His left at night rested near Decatur, five miles from Atlanta. On Tuesday, July 19, Howard sent out reconnoitering parties on various roads in his front.

The reconnoissance was pushed to reach the creek three and a half miles this side of Atlanta, Wood finding the enemy intrenched in pretty strong works on the south side of the stream, which WAS about fifty feet broad and six feet deep. Newton met with- little hindrance to his advance, while Stanley, who struck the river further up, saw no force in his front. Hooker also made a reconnoissance to a point further down the creek, and finding the bridge destroyed, threw skirmishers over and engaged the enemy's cavalry, who fled ere his approach. At noon Wood received orders to advance upon the stream and effect a arossing. Selecting Beatty's brigade, under the dashing Col.

Kneffer, Wood deployed to the right of the road about twelve miles.The creek takes winding course through a ravine on a plantation, 80 that the rebel works were in full view. Deploying the Seventy skirmishers, Indiana Kneffer and the moved Ninth cautiously Kandown under cover to the creek, which was lined with a small growth of bushes. A few men swam the stream and threw down stringers, and the skirmishers as they crossed deployed to the right and left, and advanced on the rebel works. Many of Kneffer's command, finding the process of crossing tedious, hauled the guns and swam or forded the stream in time to carry the rebel works uuder an annoying artillery fire from a rebel battery, and to participate in the capture of thirty or forty prisoners. Gibbons' brigade endeavored to cross in front, but the position was so exposed that it halted.

Skirishing continued until evening between Kneffler and the rebel infantry under Bates, cut the latter continually lost ground. No troops ever fought harder era than ours. The thought of getting into Atlanta seemed to spur them on to dare anything. During the evening the brigde was rebuilt by Hazen, and the division passed over. On Wednesday morning, July 20th, Gen.

Thomas ordered Gen. Howard to move by the left flank and close the gap between him and Schofeld. Wood's division was ordered froth the position of the previous day, and ROW alled it, with. orders press heavily forward upon the direct road to Atlanta.Stanley's forces moved down the road leading to Atlanta via Schofeld's right, crossed without much opposition, and formed a junction with Schofeld at 12 o'clock, noon, after some little delay in bridging the south branch of Peach-tree- creek, Schofeld, the day previous, formed a junction with MePherson at Decatur, needing nothing but the cavalry. McPherson, left on round Tuesday within and Wednesday, swang his to three miles of the city, after having torn up over six miles of the Atlanta and Augusta Railroad between Stone Mountain; and Decatur, with i the aid of Garrard's cavalry.

Schofield immediately advanced upon a road running direct to the encountered city, the and when skirmishers within three miles of the emy. Pushing rapidly forward his skirmishers and battery, he developed the strength of the enemy, who, with infantry, had taken a strong position on the works. Howard immediately advanced his division upon the rebel works, erected by them after they had been driven from the umphed. Geary held the hill at the end as at the begining of the assault, That portion of his army that fell back was reformed, and in about an hour went back into action on Williams' right. The tremendous rebel charges spent their force on Williams' division refused made, give an inch and though the enemy three charges on it before nigntfall, he repulsed them all without wavering though in doing 80 it sustained a heavier loss than any other division on the right.

Fighting on this part of the was in dense fogs. The attaek just grazed the left of Palmer's corps, which had not left the trenches but, was preparing to do so. At nine o'clock P. the enemy abandoned the fight in front of Williams Geary carrying off their dead and wounded, and falling back to their heavy works about a mile distant. In front of Ward and Newton he WAS compelled to leave all his dead and severely wounded.

Judging from the piles heaped up, the enemy's loss in killed and wounded was at least 5000. About 1000 prisoners were captured by us. The loss in Hooker's corps, official is 1611. Total loss, 1913. In front of ton's division, and Williams' and Geary's divisions, the rebel dead was very numerous.

During the night the enemy evacuated the works, retreated to fortifications in city, and offered a feeble resistance to the entry of Howard's division on his left and right. At eight we occupied the town, and before the national ensign floated over it a great prisoners were captured.The roads approaching the city were guarded by artillery at points where they wind through 1 the fortifications. LOCAL AND OTHER ITEMS. VAN AMBURGH MENAGERIE. This great exhibition of Natural History, which is to visit Bangor next week, is undoubtedly something far superior to the usual routine of traveling shows.

The N. Y. Evening Post, in speaking of its departure from that city, said, "taken altogether, the Menagerie which Van Amburgh Co. start out this Spring will surpass in the extent, variety and interest of its zoological collection, as well as in the beauty and completeness of its outfit, anything of the kind which has hitherto travelled in America, or perhaps any other country. The proportion of very rare specimens is much larger than usual, and all are in excellent condition." In Boston, Portland and other cities where the menagerie has 1 been the present season, the press has been unanimous in pronouncing it the finest exhibition of the kind that has ever gone through the country.

From the Pastor of the Methodist E. Church, Madison, Conn. I have used. Coe's Dyspepsia Cure in my family, and willingly testify to its value as E. medicine.

MESSRS. me, through your celumns, to acknowledge my gratitude for the benefit I have received from the use of Coe's Dyspepsia Cure. Although I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia, the first dose gave mustantel relief, and one ounce has enabled me to eat please, without pain. I have now stopped using the medicine, as I no longer need it. PALMIBA LYMAN.

Madison, June 30th, 1864. From the benefit derived by the use of Coe's Dyspepsia Cure in my family, I am prepared to say that I never intend to be without it, and advise all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia to try it. PHILANDRR LEWIS. MR. COE: bottle of Coe's Dyspepsia Cure you gave me has backed up your statement concerning it.

I have only used half a bottle, and can eat pine apple short cake or anything else, without trouble. It acts like a charm. The relief it affords is instantaneous. JANE A. LOWREY.

New Haven, June 18th, 1864. New Haven, June 28th, 1864. Messrs. C. G.

CLARK desire to make known the almost instantaneous effects of 66 Coe's Dyspepsia Cure," in cases of cholera morbus. I had been for twenty-four hours purging at the stomach and bowels, every fifteen minutes. I went into your drug store to procure some brandy, as I had always been told that it was a good remedy for Dysentery. My pallid face and my weakness at once attracted the attention of the clerk in charge, and he asked me at once what is the matter?" "I have been for twenty-four hours vomiting and purging, and I am unable to stand or walk, from weakness, and this deadly sickness at my stomach prostrates me." He produced a bottle of Coe's Dyspepsia Cure, saying, "take a large swallow of that; it is now 11 o'clock; take another after dinner." From the moment I took that first dose of the medicine my sickness at stomach was gone -its effect was instantaneous. In an hour I eat my dinner with as good a relish as ever hungry man partook, (as I was well cleared out of food,) and followed by a teaspoonful of cure.

I have not suffered a particle of inconvenience since I took the remedy. Its action was so wonderful and so immediate that I could hardly believe the evidences of my own senses, and I desire to publicly make known these facts, that the whole world may avail themselves of its use. Like bread, it should find a place in every one's house, and I believe that no one should go away from home without a bottle of it in his pocket, or where it could be quickly made available. Truly yours, GEO. L.

DRAKE. One of the Twenty-five. MR. COE Sir: Having been troubled with the Dyspepsia for some eight or twelve months, I have taken the usual kinds ofmedicines, which have done me no good. I saw your advertisement of a medicine to cure the Dyspepsia.

I have tried it; and found it to be THE medicine. The first 15 drops, (the 7th of June,) that I took, relieved me in one minute? I have taken it three or four times, but have had no distressing feeling in my stomach since taking the first 15 drops; although before, I could not eat a meal, and sometimes no more than three or four mouthafull without distressing me. Respeotfully J. F. WOODRUFF, New Haven, June 11th, 1864.

MR. COE-Dear Sir: The bottle of Dyspepsia Medicine I received from you, gave instantaneous relief. I only used it when my food distressed me. It was about like taking two doses. to-day, one tomorrow, then every other day, increasing the quantity of food and decreasing the medicine, until I was enabled to eat without taking anything at all.

My case was an extreme one, having suffered for seven years. I now consider myself eared, and by only using one bottle of the space of two months, The dose was a teaspoonful. ALLEN S.
