Telegram To General U.S. Grant. Washington, July 11, 1864. 8 A.M. Lieutenant-General Grant, City Point, Va.: Yours of 10.30 P.M. yesterday received, and very satisfactory. The enemy will learn of Wright's arrival, and then the difficulty will be to unite Wright and Hunter south of the enemy before he will recross the Potomac. Some firing between Rockville and here now. A. LINCOLN.
