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: PBEMAXURK IDEAS. New York, April 3.—Commercial's special #u\s it i« believed in Washington that the war is over.

News of Grant’s success has almost sus pended business in all markets, and us yet it is difficult to estimate the effect on prices till more is known of the fate of Lee’s army, and the prospects of effecting a junction with Johnston, to offer battle at some point, or po.-L.hly tall conjointly upon Sherman. Guiu has been effected but siightly. ihe prices opened at $1 48, and fell to $1 45£, with no special furore to sell. stock mar ket .has been largely oversold and there is a scarcity oi gold.

City Point, March 31 — 8:80 A. M lion. E. 31. Stanton : 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 !

This is the place where the t corps had an engagement with the enemy ‘ iftrt autumn, in which it suffered severely.— i Tae ground gained to-day cost us but a few men. the rebels matting but very slight resist - ■ since. At Hatcher’s run, which,is only a short distance further on, 'the enemy have strong earthworks erected, defended with heavy guns, ami here they will no doubt make a stand to oppose our further advance. From this point : th>- new lino extends to Armstrong’s mill, the ! tbs jorps holding the right of Ids position in ’1: engagement of yesterday. The number prisoners taken is 125, with eight com mis sioned officers. They belonged to Bushrod J< • n-on’s cavalry, and were part of the force ! that maik the attack upon our lines last Sat* ! uiiaj. The rebels made a demonstratien at i sewn points on the old liun la“t night for the 1 purpose evidently of ascertaining whether the [ works were held in foroe. They did not gain I anything, however, excepting the information that the line was strong enough to defend it elf. This explains dhe firing heard at City , Foin*. on Wednesday night aud Thursday eve nitig.

The Tribune’s correspondent, writing at Grav : eliy Run on the night of the 20th says: By the movement of Friday, our original line which ex ! tended on the left of Hatcher’s Run, has linen pro i longed beyond the Run, westward aerf-ss the 1 VaugLn and Qm-ker plank roads,facing | within about two and a half miles of Dii viddie i Court House. The Lieutenant General, af-’ompa ; nied by Gens.

Geu. Meade aecompaniedour ad- I vance early in the morning, and had hishtaiquarj i ters on the Vaughan road, two miles from Hatch | er’s Run, REBEL KEPOItTS. 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.
