Arkansas news:

The Richmond Dispatch give* the
following parliulurs of tlie battle on
Saturday:
The terriffic thunder storm of last
Friday night led many to suppose that
military operations on our Lines would
be retarded for several days, and partic
ularly with those who were considered
to bo potfectly au fait with the topo
graphical nature of the country on
which our noble qrmy was stationed.—
With a volatile stream and swamp in
front, (tho Chickahominy) it was tho’t
that an attack was impossible, or at
feast impracticable, either from friend
or foe, owing to the flood of rain which
fell; but early Saturday morning our
scouts reported that, during the previ
ous night, the enemy had conveyed
very heavy bodies of men aot-oss, or in
the swamp, und that their retreat or ex
trication wus almost a matter of impos
sibility.
Towards nine a. m. on Saturday, wn
observed lurge bodies of troops or Long-
street’s division, moving towards, ami on
tlie Williamsburg road, with bands in full
blast, and men hilarious with delight,
supposing, aa proved to be the case,
that the enemy were to be attacked in
force and compelled to retreat or sur
render.
Hastily proceeding down the road
indicated, we found it almost impossi
ble to pass, owing to tlie immense bo*
dies of water lying along the route,
together with an unlimited supply of
mud. From Mngruder’s farm, and sev
eral miles forward upon the turnpike,
all seemed to be an impassable swamp.
How regiment after regiment traversed
the ground seems even now almost a
problem. Yet, onward, onward passed’
Lorigstreet’s divinnn towards the point
of attack; end although everything
so: med unusually quiet, there was n
peculiar stir and rumbling in the woods
and on the road, (some stx miles, and
in the woods fronting Barker's planta
tion,) wliiuh denoted that the enemy
were unusually active atul anticipated
our #d/itnon.
Between 9 and 10 a. in., » part of
Hilt’s division were deployed as skir
mishers on the right and left of the
road, which were soon replaced by tlis
arrival of Longs treat's veterans'. Be
tween 11 and 12 a. in., the 28lh Geor
gia and 2d Mississippi were deployed
as skirmishers fronting the woo is, and
begiili the advance without much oppo
sition, but as they proceeded along the
.turnpike, and in the woods, the enemy,
conceuled behind a fence, and in force,
opened a furious rifle fire, which for a
moment caused our brave boys to wink
ai d stagger. Yet, recovering them
selves in an instant, they delivered a
murderous volley in reply, and with
hearty cheers, dashed through (lift woods
alter their discomfited and frightened
foe, driving them holler Bkelter^ftsforo
them, and making many bite tho cold,
wet, and muddy ground. Observing
tluvstrengih of the enemy’s line in
front, our commander ordered up the
4th North Carolina, who, advancing in
force, broil o through tho 2d Mississippi
battalion, in tlieir hurried progress, and
divided the latter corps in such a man
ner that, subsequently, their whole
force could not bo again collected.—
Brilliant in conception and execution

their flanking firo '.hat tho enemy pre
cipilately fell back upon tlieir unfinish

the entrance to, Ike extensive grounds
of Barker’s farm. This breastwork,
however, is but one of a chain of simi
lar earthworks, which the invaders have
erected this side of the Chickahominy
stream, and, running parallel with it,
are nearer to our forces front the N.

talion, (three companies) appeared
upon the scene, and looking to where
the fire was hottest, dashed into the
enemy in Frenob style with the bayo
net, and with their watoh word “Butler"
upon their lips, drovo every thing before
them, attacking odds in every instance,
and not satisfying their vengeance un
til almost deoimated.
Our artillery at this juncture, came
into play, and although the mud baffled
human industry, patienoo, and perse-
reranoo, some pieces of the Lvnohburg
[we believe Latham'-iJ Battery got into
position, at the entrance to Barker's
farm, and played such havoo that the
foe desertod their four large brass how
itzers, unable to reply. But as tho en
emy’s whole brigade camp [tents and
all] were yet standing—as Barker's
house, outhouses, ko„ lay parallel to
the road—and as a very large wood-
pile was at right angle# with it, the en
emy, reinforced, crowded their breast
works, and from all theso points kept
up such a terrific fire that our men, ap
pearing from thewoud and on the roail,
were cut down as fust as discovered!—
Nothing daunted at the immensa show

roads und ground, was incapable of

drove the foe two miles liejond their

regiments. Having many valuables in-
camp, and it being well provided With
tents, provisions, (including 100 bills, of
whiskey.) they made a terrifio efi'ort
to retrieve the fortunes of the day, and
Gen. Casey, their commander, moved
up every available man to support or
aover his flying columns. Tente, pro
visions, guns, ambulances, wagons,
spare horses, and, in fact, everything
stationed on the Williamsburg rdud
fell into our hands, and regiment ufter
regiment of the enemy retreated to
the Chickahominy faster than ever
witnessed before by old campaigners,
leaving large numbers of killed and
wounded to the fortunes of war. Bea

camp and earthworks on the Williams
burg road, the enemy made* bold at

vigorous flank movement down the
York River Railroad, thinking thus to
retrieve the fortunes of the day and
place things as they were in the mor
ning.
Heavy fireing consequently com
commenced between 5 P. M. to the
left of the Williamsburg road near the
seven mile post, on the York River
Railroad, but Oddaway’s battery and a
brigade in waiting, received their ad
vanco with such ardor that, without any
preliminary, the Tennesseeans and
others throw themselves upon the Fed
evals, drove in their skirmishers, attack
ed the main force, and up to the mid
die in w iter assailed the battery before
them, and took it with the bayonet-
The fighting in this direction was not
of long duration, but of great intensity
and noise, Imbeden’s (or Oddaway’s)
field pieces being used with remarkable
precision and celerity, expediting the
enemy’s' retreat in a short time. The
enthusiasm of the men on the Wil
