He found th* rebel Gen.Stuart with his cavalry concentrated at Yel¬low Tavern; immediately attacked liim, and,alter an obstinate contest, gained possession oltlifc Brock turnpike, capturing two pieces ofartillery and driving his forces back towardsAshland, and across tbe north fork of theChickaiicminy, a distance of lour miles. Atthe eame time a partv charged down the Brockroad and captured the first line of the enemy'sworks around Richmond. During the nighthe marched the whole of his command Be¬tween the first and second lines of the enemy 'sworks on the bluffs overlooking the line of theVirginia Central Railroad and the Mechanics-ville turnpike.Alter demonstrating against the works, and

finding them very strong, he gave up the in¬tention ol assaulting, and determined to recrossthe Chickahominy at Meadow Bridge.
