The progress of the fleet was a continued success until they arrived to within about seven miles of Richmond. Here the river takes a sharp turn around a propitious bluff fully one hundred and fifty feet in Leight.. Upon the top of this bluff the rebels have erected a most scientific and formidable battery, mounting many guns of superior range and calibre. This battery commands the river in the most effective manner and its on became evident to our fleet that an engagement of no ordinary character was imminent.
