BtTore the 30th May, I froDj trusty scouts, that IveyeY corps was triicauiped on this side of the Chickahominy, iicur the Williamsburg road. On that day Muj G*u. 1) H Hill r#portod a strong body iiumediately in his liont. On receivinjz this repvit, I determined to attack them the next moiiiiug—hoping to t-e able to defeat Keyes' corps completely in its more advanced posi tion bet ore it could be reinforced. Written orders were despatched to Major Generals Hill, Ilujrer, Hud G V. Smith. General Lougstreet, being near my headquarters, received verbal instructions. Tbe receipt of th e orders was acknowledged. General Kill, supported by the division of General Long street (who had the direction of operations on the was to advance by the Wil liamsburg road to attack the enemy in front ; General Huger, with bis division, was to move dowu the Charles City road, in order to attack in hank the troops who might be engaged with Hill and Longstreet, unless he found in his tront force enough to occupy his division, General Smith was to march to the junction of the New Bridge road and the Nine Mile road, to be in readiness either to tall on Keyes’ right flank or to cover Long street’s left. They were to move at daybreak. Heavy and protracted rains during the after noon and night, by swelling the Ohicka hoininy, increased the probability of our having to deal with no other troops than i those of Keyes. The same cause prevented the prompt and punctual movement of the troops. Those of Smith, llill and Long street, were in position early enough, how ever, to commence operations by 8 oeloek, A. M. Major General Longstreet, unwilling to make a partial attack, instead of the com bined movement which had been planned, waited troin hour to hour for Gen. Huger’s division. At length, at 2 o’clock, p. m.; lie determined to attack without those troops. He accordingly commenced his advance at that hour, opening the engagement with ar tillery and skirmishers. By 3 o’clock it ! became close and heavy, j In the meantime, 1 had placed myself on the left of the force employed in this attack, ! with the division of General Smith, that 1 might be on a. part of tin; field where I could j observe, and be ready to meet, any counter ■ movements which theeuemy’s General might ! make against our centre or left. Owing to j some peculiar condition of the atmosphere, ! the sound of the musketry did not reach us. 1 I, consequently, deferred giving the signal i fur Gen. Smith’s advauee tili about 4 o’clock, at which time Major Jasper Y\ hiting, of Gen Smith’s start, whom I had -»ent to learn the state of affairs with Gen. Longstreet’s column, returned, reporting that it was pressing on with vigor. Smith’s troops were | at. once moved forward. The principal attack was made by Major General Longstreet, with his ow n and Major General l>. H. Hill’s division—the latter most gallantly led, forced their way through tUe abattis winch formed the enemy’s exter nal defences, aud stormed their entrench ments by a determined aud irresistable rush. B>u«:h was the manner in which the enemy’s first line was carried. Tfie operation was repeated with the same galiautry and suc cess as our troops pursued their victorious career thro'ugh the enemy’s successive camps and entrenchments. At each new position they encountered fresh troops belonging to it, aud reinforcements brought ou from the rear Thus they had to repel repeated ef torts to retake works which they had carried, but their advance was never successfully resisted. Their onward movement was only stayed by the coining ot night. By nightfall they had forced their way to the “Seven Pines,” having driven the enemy back more than two miles, through their own camps, and from a series ui' entrenchments ; and repelled every attempt to recapture them with great slaughter. The skill, vigor, aud decision with which these operations were conducted by Gen. Longstreet are worthy of the high est. praise, lie was worthily seconded by Major General Hill, of whose conduct and courage lie speaks iu tiie highest terms. Major General Smith’s division moved forward at four o’clock—W hiting’s three brigades leading. Their progress was im peded by the enemy’s skirmishers, which, with their supports, were driven back to the railroad. At this point, Whiting's own, aud Pettigrew’s brigade, engaged a superior force ot the enemy. Hood’s, by my order, moved ou to co operate with Lougstreet General Smith was desired to hasten up with all tiie troops withiu reach. He brought up Hampton’s and Hatton's brigades iu a few minutes. The strength of the cuemy’s position, however, enabled him to hold it until dark. About suuset, being struck from my horse, severely wounded by a fragment of a shell, 1 was carried from the field, and Major Gen eral G. \Y. Smith succeeded to the com mand. He was prevented from resuming his at tack on the euemy’s position next morning by the discovery of strong entrenchments, not seen ou the previous evening. His di vision bivoucked, on the uight of the 31st, within musket shot of the entrenchments which they were attacking, when darkness stayed the conflict. Tbe skill, energy and resolution with which Maj.-Gen. Smith di rected the attack, would have secured suc cess if it'had been inaue au hour earlier. The troops of Longstreet and Hill passed the night of the 3ist or the ground which i they had won. The enemy were strongly reiuforced from the north -ude of the Chick akominy on the evening and night of the Gst. The troop* engaged by Gen. Smith w>-re undoubtedly from the other side of the river. Ou toe morning ot the Ist of June, iht enemy attacked the brigade of Gen. Pick** ett, which was supported by that of Gen.f Pry oi The attack wan vigorously repelled by these two brigades, of the ac tion falling on Gen Pickett. This was the lust demon strut ion made by the enemy. Our troops employed they residue of the day m securing and bearing eff the captured arffflffy, small arms, and other property aud in the evening quietly returned to their owm camps. e took ten pieces of artillery, six thou sand (6,000,) muskets, one garrison flag, a °d tour regimental colors, besides a large quantity of tents and camp equipage. Major-General Longstreet reports the loss in his command as being about 3,000 idaj.-Gen. G. . Smith reports his loss at 1,283 Total 4,283 That ot the enemy is stated in their own newspapers to have exceeded ten thousand —an estimate which is, uo doubt, short of the truth. Had Major-General Huger’s division been in position ami ready for action, when those of Smith, Longstreet uud Hill moved, I am satisfied that Keyes’ corps would have been destroyed, instead of being merely defeated.* Had it. gone into action even at 4 o’clock, the victory would have been much more com plete. Major-Generals Smith and Longstreet speak in high terms of their superior and stafl officers. J. beg leave to ask the attention of the Government especially to the manner in which Brigadier-Gens. Whiting and R. 11. Anderson, and (Hols. Jenkins and Kemper and Hampton, exercising commands above their grades, and Brig.-Gen. Rhodes, are mentioned. This, aud the captured colors will be de livered by Major A. H. Cole, of iny stafl'. I have been prevented, by feebleness, from making this report sooner, and am still too weak to make any but a very imperfect one. Several hundred prisoners were taken, but 1 have received uo report of the number. Your obedient servant, [Signed] J. E. Johnston, General. *See Longstreet’s repert- Linrolit and tlit) ot ilortler Stale*. The President summoned them to meet I him fit his house, on the 12th insfc- In ad dressing them he reproached them fur not voting for the bill for the gradual emancipa tion of slavery, and said : On Saturday, the 12th instaut, the rep resentatives of the -“Border’' States assem bled, by iuvitation, at the Presidential man sion in Washington, and were addressed by | Lincoln “from a paper which he held in his I hand.’’ He commenced by sadly reproach i iug them for not voting for the gradual emancipation resolution sent to Congress in : March. He- then urged emancipationon them, and said ; If the war continues long, as it must if the object be not sooner attained, the insti tution iu your State will be extinguished by mere friction and abrasion—by the mere in cidents ot the war. It will be gone, and you will have nothing valuable in lieu of it. Much of its value is gone already How much better for you and for your people to take the step which at once shortens the war 1 and secures substantial compensation for that which is sure to be wholly lost in any other event 1 Kow much better to thus save the money which else we siuk forever in the war. How much better to do it while we can, lest the war ere long render us pecuni arily unable to do it! How much better for you, as seller, and the nation, as bujer, to sell out and buy out that without which the war could never have been, then to sink both the thing to be sold and the price of it in cutting one another’s throats ! I do nut speak of emancipation at once, but of a decisiou at once to emancipate grad ually. Room in South America for coloni zation can be obtained cheaply and in abun dance, aud when numbers shall be laTge en ough to be company and encouragement for one another, the freed people will not be so reluctant to go. lie then alluded to his disagreement with Gen. Hunter’s proclamation, and the “pow erful party that supported it,” aud added : Yet, in repudiating it, I gave dissatisfac tion, if not offence, to many whose support tbe country caunot afford to iose. And this is not the end of it. The pressure in thi> direction is still upon me, and is increasing. By conceding what. I now ask, you can re lieve ine, and, much more, can relieve the country iu this important point. lie then advised them to go home and de liberate ou bis request, which they did, and a few days after the conclusion of the ma jority was made public. They arc sensitive ; about interfering with an institution pecu liarly under the control of the States, and then they are appalled by the sum to Ik* paid for the slaves, which would be 51,2f»0,000,- OUO even at 8300 per bead, the compensation contained iu the emancipation act for the District of Columbia. They alarmed at his sentence about the Hunter proclamation, and say : \Ye Will not allow ourselves to think that the proposition is, that we consent to give up slavery, to the eud that the Hunter proc- lamation may be let lon ? j un tb«* Southern ! people, fdr it is too w<-U kn -wn that we ; would not be parties to any '*iuh measures, ind we have tou much respect for you to j .fnagino y-.u would propose it Cun it mean j rfiat by sui ritu-iog onr interest ;u dxvery we | ippeaso the spirit th:»t coutrols thnt mens- } ure, cause it to bo withdrawn, ond rid the country of the pestilent ngitHti. n os the slavery question i \\ c are forbidden so to ' r liink, fur that spirit would not be satisfied ; with the liberation of 700,000 slaves nor ! cease its :igita f i<*u, while three millitfri re main in bondage. Can it mean that by abandoning slavery in our States wo are re moving the pressure from you and the coun fry. by preparing for a separation on the line ol the cotton States ? \\ e arc forbidden s) to think, because it is known that we arc, and we believe that you are, unalterably op- | posed to any division at nil. TYc would pre fer to think that you desire this concession as a pledge of our support, and thus enable you to withstaud a pressure which weighs heavily on you aud the country. Mr. Pres ident, no such sacrifices is necessary to se cure our support. They announce their willingless to leave it to a vote of the people in their respective States but <>ay ; Before they ought to consider the propo sition, it should be presented in such a tan gible practical, efficient shape as to com maud their cnilidence that its fruits are con tingent only upon their acceptance. Vve caunot trust anything to the contingencies of future legislation. If Congress, by prop er and necessary legislation, shall provide sufficient Binds and place them at your dis posal, to be applied by you to the payment, ot any of our States, or the citizens therof, who shall adopt the abolishment of slavery i either gradual or immediate, us they may de i termine, and the expense of deportation and ' colonization of the liberated fdaves, then will j our States and people take proposition into careful consideration, for such decision as in their judgement is demanded by their interests, their honor, and tlittir duty to the whole country.

He captured a dozeu towns and citie?, de stroyed Federal military stores, and other j property, and railroad bridges, in all amount- | iug to eight or ten millions of dollars. He took perhaps over a thousand prisoners, all of whom he paroled. At Cynthiana, he en countered a Federal foioe equal to his own, i who, aftewi few hours light surrendered. At Lebanon lie t ok between two and i three tnousand stand of arms, half of which ] he retained, and half destroyed. Hen* also j he burned hall a million of dollars woith of j Federal army stores, lie accomplished all ' this besides frightening the whn'.* Vanke* nation out of its propriety, with a lo=s <>f not ■ more than fifteen or twenty men killed in all his engagements, and between thirty and 1 forty wounded, and has returned it triumph ; to Tennessee. • ( Where i- he at present, and what will be j his next daring move, is of course, not a matter to be divulged, but, it is certain that he and his brave rangers cannot lemiin in- i active. History will hereafter record this cxpe li- 1 tion a- one of the most remarkably daring ' and success!ul ever made on this eoutlucnt.
