Thirty four Yankee prisoners readied aero last evening. The Designs of Plysses. The Richmond Enquirer of the 6th (Monday) throws some light upon the manoeuvres and designs of Grant »round Richmond. That unconditional flanker has, for the'last three days, been en deavoring to break’ through the lines of General Lee, at a place called Turkey Ridge, which commands the two bridge sites known as McClellan and Grape Vine Bridges. These rites are between New Bridge and the railroad bridge over the Chickahomiffy. The Divisions of Generals Breckinridge and Hoke have sustained the assaults of the enrftny, repulsing every effort, and are still holding this important ridge. Why Grant persists so much inaa- ■aulting this particular part of the line, and continues his eSorts, notwithstanding the immense slaughter of his troops, will be found in the urgent necessity for his crossing the Chickshominy and making his way to the James River for supplies. Unless he continues his flsnk movement, I or U he falls back to the White Reuse, he L confesses defeat; hence hi* persistent ft effort at Turkey Ridge, notwithstanding a the wholesale slaughter that has attended fthis attacks. A rumor was current Satur- ■ day and Sunday of tho capture of a courier ■ from Grant to his chief commissary, direct W ing him to economize his supplies, as he I could get no more nntil he reached the t Jamea River. ' It was across A ete bridges that McCleK lan reinforoed Gen, Keyes at the battle Seven Pines, and again sent reinforcements to Fits John Porter st the battle of Gaines' Mill. Across these bridges McClellan withdrew bis defeated army from Gaines’ Mill when he began his "change of base 1 to Harrison's Landing. These bridges are now as necessary to Grant as they wero McClellan. Without their on disturbed use he can neithor move on Richmond continue his flsnk movement, which keeps up appearances and deceives his credulous people at .home. Without these bridges he must more on roads that lead away from Richmond, and find his base on the Wnlasy, at the White M on tin uus, below the mouth of the Chicka- hominy. The importance of these bridges plains Grant’s persistent and murderous Sorts for Turkey Ridge. Influence of Gain, Brig. Sen. Sswft F. Dstes. James Fennimore Cooper, the novelist, one of his political essays, says: " We very well know that the idea is prevalent ng usof the irresistible power of popn- r sway; but he has lived in vaiq who has i the course of events in other nations r the last half century, and has not made > discovery that men in political matters i the servants of money as certainly nd almost as actively as the spirits of the [lamp were made to do the bidding of Jaddin. To us it would seem that tho iture of thia country holds out hut three lible solutions of the tendencies of the ent time, namely, the bayonet, a re> f turn to the true principles of the original government, or the sway of money. For tho first it may be too soon; the pressure ' society is ecarcely sufficient to elevate a accessful soldier to the height of despot' though the ladder has been raised »than once against the citadel of the nstitutionby adventurers of this charac' , through the folly andheedless impulse the masses.

Early, tempo rarily to Ewell’s Corps.-' The announcement of the death of Brigadier General George Pierce Doles, of Georgia, will be received with universal regret, and will prod oca among the people bis native State a profound sensation of grief. T» a vast circle of friends and ac quaintances, the tidings will hare a painful and crushing effect. Hero, among who knew him best and loved him most, will the grief be deeper and more enduring. The old and young, the brave and timid, the roogh and gentle, have been swept away by the storm of battle—Thousands of the purest hearts and bravest spirits of the South have passed from IKe todeath, in thedefense of home snd country; bn», among the heroic dead, sleeps not a nobler or purer spirit than his of whom we write. Pierced through the left breast by a Minie ball, be fell on the battle field near Cold Harter, June 2d, 1864, in the fall vigor of mind and body. Gen. Doles was, we be lieve, a native of Baldwin county. State of Georgia, and, at the time of his death, about 40 years of sge. By nature, he sras gentle, kind, forgiviog, charitable and brave—a devoted hoaband and father and a steadfast friend. Although modest to an extreme, he was resolute snd unflinch ing. He was a soldier by taste, inclina tion and self-education. ’Although not a graduate of any military institution, Gen. Doles was familiar with every arm of the service, and so extensive and varied was this information -that the principles and details of every branch of the profession were clearly and practically understood by him. At the commencement of hostilities, he was in command, as captain,of the “Bald win Bines," one of the oldest and best drilled volunteer companies in the State of Georgia. Tbit splendid company he 'had the honor to- carry into the service, and, withTt, to organ : ze the 4th Regiment of Gheorgi* Volunteers. Id May, 1861, st Gosport Navy Yard, Vs., he was elected Colorfelof the regiment, and entered at once upon the discharge of his duties.— By his genial disposition, polite manners, strict discipline snd prompt obedience to orders, be won the admiration of inferi ors as well as superiors, of citizens os well as soldiers. The excellent character of the regiment, sustained, as it was, by intelli gent and polished Southern youths, under his administration acquired a permanence and splendor that will not be forgotten by the people of Nansemond county, where it was stationed for’ a period of twelve months. Under his direction, the regi« ment attuned that proficiency in drill and manoeuvre for which it was so justly cele brated and for which it was so much ad mired. On the 19th day of May, 1862, Ool. Doles, with his regiment, left "Camp Jack- eon" for the city of Richmond, to take on active part in the bloody scenes soon follow, on the banks of the Chickahominy river. On the 21st of May, 1862, Doles 1 regiment (being the right of Blanchard’s brigade) moved to take a position on the battle-field of "Seven Tines." The ene my were at the time sullenly retiring.— The appearance of the 4th Georgia attrac ted universal attention. Those Georgians who saw the regment file dowfi the Wil liamsburg road that morning, felt a glow of pride, _and a swell of exaltation. Every, step was cadanced, every limb elastic, with compact and closed Tanks, -with the pre cision and regularity of unity, the regi ment moved on the field of battle. On the 25th day of June, 1862, at 8 o'clock A. M., and while on picket, the enemy, under Gen. Heamey, advanced suddenly against our line. Doles quickly assembled three companies as skirmishers and disputed the hostile advance. This was his first engagemext, and well did he sustain his previous character, and realize the fondest expectations of. his friends. From 8 o’clock A. M. till 12 M., with three small companies, he kept the entire 20th Indiana regiment at bay. The want of ammunition and support caused his little band to fall - back to the “lines," when, after being supplied, the regiment was formed, and with Doles at the head, a charge was made, resulting in a complete rout of the enemy and a terrible loss of men. A writer, speaking of the regiment dar ing this day’s fight, said, “the 4th Georgia fought like devils." -At Malvern Hill, led on by Doles, the x'egiment again made a splendid charge, but from the loes of men and want of support, the assault failed. In the charge, Col; Doles was so disabled by a shell that he had to retire to the rear after the fight. On the 1st day -of November, 1862, he was promoted to Brigadier General, since tvhich time he has been identified with, and has borne a conspicuous part in all the battles of Lee’s^rmy. He rendered signal and splendid service at Sbarpsbnrg, Gettysburg and Chancelloraville, always attracting plaudits by his soldierly bear ing on the field, and challenging the ad miration of all. He fell while the elements of death were raging aronnd him. With a determination to recover a temporary advantage obtained by the enemy, he rushed to tho front, like a lion rendered desperate by the blood and carnage surrounding, threw his slender brigade against the foe, and fell, as his de voted companions drove the yelling enemy back. Thus, while “illustrating” his na tive State, and while displaying the high est and noblest attributes of the human soul, he fell in the moment of victory.

I subj oin an extract from Gen- ral Orders No. 6, from Headquarters Depart ment of North Carolina and Southern Vir ginia, in which the eommanding General thanks a portion of Johnson’s Qtmmand for thoir gallant services in reptHsing the enemy' gunboats at Port-Ctiflou. Q'dQ'ca DmtriHVT N.O. atoS. V-l., i llucocx Houai, May £3, ISC*, j General Order, No. 6 ] n. Tbe commanding general takes pleas ure in noticing the skill and gallantry dll played by Capt. S. Taylor Martin, and the heroio officers and .men of his battery, and those of the 44th Tennessee regiment, nnder hie command, in tbe engagement at Fort Clif ton, on the 9lh instant, with (6) five of the enemy’s gunboats, in whioh engagemont one of tho gunboats was destroyed, and another crippled, the rest retreating. 8aob conduct reflects credit on the eervioe, and deserves emulation. *•»***. By command of Gen. Beauregard. (Signed) Johx M. Onr, A. A. G. This excellent officer (Capt. Martin) was re ported wounded, but we are happy to find that it was an error in the name. The gal lant men who manned the guns at Fort Clif ton, from the.44th Tennessee regiment, tnder Lieut. P. M. Kelsoe, received a high encomi um on tho spot for the gallant manner in which the piooes were handled. Never did mgn look death in the faoe with a better resolution. Like Tennesseans, gal lant and true, they knew too wall what would be tho result should tbe enemy’s gunboats ai- lenoe their gnna. The troops nnder the eom- maud t f Major General Johnson deserve much credit for the very handsome manner in whioh they have met the enemy, dnr artillery prac tise has been splendid, and has effroted a dis- lodgment of tho enemy’a lines. Yesterday, Thurtdiy. we drove the enemy’s skirmishers back to their main works, which are very heavy, rapturing about one hundred prison ers, among them a surgeon, a major, three captains and some lieatenants. Ths enemy endeavored to retake their lost position at nightfall, bnt were handsomely repulsed, with out loss on our side, although they offered a stubborn resistance. A very heavy flotilla of transports bave reoentiy 1 -ft the James, laden with troops for Grant. All Is-now qoi-t in our front, and every confidence is felt. More anon. ’ Gallop.
