From Charleston.
The following official dispatch, received yesterday, contains the only news from Charleston since our last issue:
Charleston, July 16, 1863. To Gen S. Cooper:
We attacked part of the enemy's forces on James's Island this morning, and drove them to the protection of their gunboats in the Stono, with small loss on both sides.
The enemy is massing his troops on Morris's Island, evidently for another attack on battery Wagner to-night or to-morrow.
Three monitor gunboats and the mortar boats kept up an almost constant fire all day on that work, with little damage to it and few casualties. G. T. Beauregard.
