[from our Special Correspondent.] Fredericksburg, July 1, 1861.
Another engagement occurred at Mathias' Point on Thursday afternoon, in which nine of the enemy were killed and many others wounded.
Our troops took a large number of picks, spades and sand-bags, and left the field unscathed, as usual.

The Captain of the schooner Margaret is a Virginian, and should be dealt with as he deserves.
The Captain of the schooner Mary Pierce is undoubtedly a Yankee.
The report of fighting at Mathias' Point has again reached me, and I am inclined to believe that we shall soon hear of a glorious victory on our part from that place. M.
