sidcr.vbly increased in the last hour
onomy now firing about three
3 o minutes. Thsir nearest battery

stood successfully,*opposed to at least
four times their numbor, behind earth
works, which they, ono after another,
evacuated, carrying off jlioir guns,
which mounted on wheel carriages,
were not captured, ns soniQ of our co-
temporaries announced yesterday
tfiough their positions were gained and
held. Mnny valuablo lives were lost
i at lueclianicsville, but they received
immortality tlicro.
At 3 o’clock yesterday morning the
grand coup dt main of General T. J.
Jackson was accomplished. With his
army, which failed to get into position
the provious ovening, he, fresh from
the fields of exploits in tho Valley,
came down the Chickahominy on the
right flank of McClellan’s army, to
Coal - Harbour, in tho enemy’s roar,
and put iiis front upon it at Old. Church.
Tlio enemy had fallen baot still fur
ther during tho night, and Hill’s and
Longstrect's divisions pressed him in
front and left flunk early yesterday
morning. Thus, by a strategy unparal
leled for its brilliancy, was McClellan
circumvented'. Up to this writing we
have no accounts of tlio battle that
has boon progressing that would justify,
particulars, but McClellan and his main
army was reported rett eating down
the Chickahominy, benring off from
"Stonowall’s” guns in tho direction of
West Point-, where the gunboats were
lying ready to cover him
It was six o’clock whop the enemy
gave way, after leaving their last breast
work battery of 12 guns, which was
their best, mounting heavy siege guns.
McClellan retired, burning up his
stores, at tho depots of his lines.
From the top of tho Copilot, in the
square, shafts of wliito 'smoko cold bo
seen rising in tho direction of Old
Church and* tho White House. At
first, this was thought to originate
from the firing of cannon, that could
not bo heard from tho distance, tho
wind also being contrary ; but later in
the day it was ascertained to liavo been
caused by tho destruction, by the ene
my, of his immense stores oft’ to tlio
right of tho Meohanioaville pike, on
tho farm of Dr. Gaines.
The mutterings of-the fight vould be
occasionally hoard through the report
of heavy guns, but it died entirely away
as the sec.no of tho conflict was remnv
ed by the retreat of tho enemy, and
the advance of tho Confederulo forces.
The retreat of McClellan’s army
and the pursuit of the Confederate
army bus moved our baso of informa
tion concerning the fight, which, wo
learn, was kept up at intervals with
gveat severity ; but through tlio kind-
ness of an officer from our lines, we
have been supplied with a very intelli
gent -pencil diagram, furnishing tho
positions of tlio retreating and pursu
ing forces.
Jackson's army was represented os
moving down considerably tills side of
tho Pumunkey for a trussol bridge
spanning it at tho -fnilroatl, with the
intention of outstripping McClellan,
whoso forces were making for the same
bridge to secure it ns a crossing before
.it was seized or burned by Jackson.-
Gens. Longstrect’s, A. P. Hill's and D
II. IlilTs divisions ivci-o pressing hard
upon McClellan’s rear, while Mugi-udor
and Huger, on the Chickahominy
held our fight wing in the direction of
Now Bridgo with a portion of the civ
emy in front of them. This was tlio
supposed situation of tlio armies up to
yesterday afternoon. As regards tho
battle or series of battles that closed
the eventful day we have little that
is reliable. .So, too, of our loss and
that of the enemy, but it has been heii--
vy—that on the enemy’s side very
great; but wo will not venturo on
ut-cs.
. It appears to be conceded thut the
enemy successfully withdrew their for
ces from tlie position hekfby tlio them
on Thursday night, aftor the capture
of Mechnnicsville, leaving behind, as a
blind, some skirmishers and a battery,
which, when charged upon by the ad
vance ‘yesterday morning at daylight,
was found to be empty of men and
guns. A pursuit of threo hours brought
our" forces upon a formidable battery
of thirteon guns at Gains’ Mill, near
tho New Kent road. Here occurred
our heaviest loss. Tho breastworks
wore situated on a blilf!', across a mill-
dam, canal and swamp, with rifle pits
in front. Our troops charged through
and over all with a valor and deter
mination that swept everything, clear
ing rifle pits and-.battery at the point of
tho bayonet, Tho troops that-did this
splendid act of. gallantry were from
North Carolina—the Brigade of -Ge.n,.;
Pender. This was accomplished through
terrific volleys of musketry', shell,
round slwt, grape .apd canister, that
piled the ground with tlie valorous
dead and wounded. ’7 ' '
In the retreat, bodies of oavnlry were
thrown forward on the Prospect road
and the Tuckortown road to intercept
them, bur. it failed to succeed. Wo
hear it said that McClellan’s retreat
was conducted in good order, and th»t
the enemy carried forward all their
dead and wounded. It was said few
prisoners were taken; however that
may bo, but few havo arrived in Rich
mond. As far os qjjS limited know-
leged extends this moment, there is
vory fortunato lack of general and
commissioned officers killed.
I.ATER—THE ACTION BECOMES GENERAL.
We learn from Mujor John M. Dithi
ol, of tho General’s stall’ serving. with
General Hill in these battles, and who
about 4 o’clock last ovening, was oblig
ed to loavo tho field in consequence of
having lmd his right arm shattered by
Minnie ball, limb at tho time ho left
the field, Illll’s division, which had been
engaged tlio whole day, and victorious
throughout, was engaged-in a terrific
battle with the onomy near Now Coal
Harbor, and were overmatched by large
masses of the enemy. Just as the Mnj.
was wounded, several large bodies of
troops were appearing on the field,
which wore supposed to be reinforce
meats under Jackson.
Later accounts brought from the field
of battle are deeply interesting. The
reinforcements that reached the field,
lyitl which were supposed to bo under
GenernTJackson, were troops of Gener
al Longstreot’s division. General Jack
son was engaged on General Hill’s left
during tho day, but was also in tim»lo
join the general engagement, which en
sued about five o’clock in the ovening.
At this hour tho action became gene
ral for the first time on the Richmond
ines. No suck collision of numbers has
yet occurred in tlie history of the war
It is estimated that soventy-fivo tlious
and Confederate troops were engaged
with an equal, if not superior, force of
the enemy. Tho scenery of tho battle
field is described as awfully sublime
and its sights oi cat-nago as exceeding
in ghastliness tno worst imaginations o
the horrors of war.
Nightfall has caused an intermission
of the terrible conflict. From the best
and most l-eliublu information we can
obtain, the field was undecided, when
the action was intermitted, to bo resunv
ed this morning.
Tho field of the imposing battle, on
which the grandest fu-tunes ever con
tested awaits decision, is nbout twelve
miles from tho city of Rlcmond.
The enemy’s retreat was certainly not
a rout, ns it 1ms hosn described on tlio
street corners, lie left his ground at
leisure, carrying off all liis dend and
wounded, leaving no murks of disorder
on the route of his retreat but such ns.
arc incidental, of course, to the move
ments of large masses.
There is occasion to npprohend that
McC'lclIun, in falling back on his pros*
cut lino of defence, has improved his
position, Tho advantages of his pros'
ent position aro mainly artificial,, but
they are considered important and so*
rious, although lie gave up yesterday
several ■ positions of groat natural ad-
vnntngo, especially that at Mechnnics
ville, upon which he had expnnded
every resource to make it impregnable.
It is impossible to estimate the loss in
yesterday's, engagement. Tho only
statements wo can got of the casualties
of the terrific battle of the evening are
vague and ghastly messages that "the
ground is oovered with dead.” Tlio
spiritof our troops aro umliminished.—
There was no straggling but from exces
give fatigue, Tlie issue which is yet un
decided, is solemnly entrusted to out-
troops nr.d tho providenco of Almighty
God. j *%g§ ' .

LATER FROM THE NORTH.
Richmond. June 30.—Tho New York
Herald of 26th, has been received. It
says that in the fight of Wednesday
last, Hooker's Division with Ueintzlo
man’s corps, supportedby Gen. Key’s
Dirision, were engaged.
McClellan, in his dispatches to Secre-
tary Stanton, says that it was not. a bat
tle, but that tho advantage Bought was
fully attained -.with little loss, though
the enemy resisted stubbornly.
Tlie Herald Bays that the feuds in
tho Republican party in Now York
State are daily increasing in bitterness
and extent.
Gold lias advanced in New York to
108j. The demand for gold from bank
ers, who aro remitting to Europe tho
the | roceeds of Amarican stocks sold
for Etnopean account is in excess of the
supply.
Richmond, June 30. — The reports
from tho lines aiosomcwLat conflicting,
The majority of statements to-day inui-
catgd that our army had hemmed, in
tho Yankees, and that the groat*r jjor-
lion of them would bo captured before
night. Tho dearth of information from
thbriines has been remarkable, and no
news whatever could be obtained at tho
War Department.
Several hundred horses captured by
Gen. Stuart, passed through the oily
this evening.
Fetersbuho, Juno 30,—A courier jjist
from Bermuda-Hundred, at 6 o’clock,
P. M., r eports that a portion of tho

bark. Four transports heavily laden,
liavo pnssetl down tlio river. Our field
licces on the Chesterfield side, engaged
lie gunboats and poured a hot fire into
then). The gunboats dropped down to
Turkey island, followed by our field
pieces. Tlio enemy are fleeing dawn
tlio river bank, hotly pursued by our
troops, and were falling thick and fast.
A» last accounts, firing was incessant.

tornoon, the enemy was attacked by
Gen. IIuger’s division, in tho vioinity
of White Oak Swamp. Tlie divisipns

Mobile, Juno 30.—A special to the
Advertiser from Jackson the 29th, says:
Passenger.; from Vicksburg this morn
ing rrpoi't that yesterday looming sev
en Federal vessels succeeded in passing
up by our batteries. A severe bom
bardment then commenced, lasting two
hours, from the fleet, and tho battery
on tho Louisiana shore.
It Is understood that several vessels,
including tho Brooklyn, were badly
damaged, with heavy slaughter among
their crews. Tho Confederate loss is
nino, inoluding ono woman, killed,—
Our batteries aro uninjured. Tho ene
my’s fire was principally directed at
tho city, and several houses were shat
tered. It is supposed the onomy will
not renew tho conflict for sevoral days.
A deserter reported their loss heavy,
and that they expeoled nil easy cap-
.life.
Later.—We learn from Vicksburg
that tho ehomy is slowly bomcarding
the town from their mortar bouts to
day, and tho telegraph office has been
smashed;. * ’
A gentleman from New Oaloans says
Butler has issued an order, levying a
tax of $2,000,000tin the city.
SECOND DISPATCH.
A special to the Advertiser from Jack-
son, says tho Yankee' correspondent of
the Mississippian, writing on the 10th
June, says: Two of the enemy’s gun
boats wero recounoittfi’ing in the Yazoo
river, when Coinmodorp Pinklcy burn-
ed'tlio Confederate gunboats Vandoi-n,
Polk and Liverpool. This action is
considered unnecessary, and is much
deplored here. The loss of property is
heavy.
Gen. Van Dorn issued an order on the
20th fo the army, declaring Vicksburg
should bo defonded to tho death. The
Federnls can never occupy Vicksburg.
Tlie fleet appears to much crippled to
engigo in a successful tilt with our bat
teries.
