river below Charles City C. H. The party consisted of the 1st company of the Washington Artillery, Capt Squiers, commanding, a Parrott section of the Loudoun Battery under Capt. Rogers, and one piece of Stuart's horse artillery, with a small cavalry support, the whole being in charge of Col. Lee; and having reached the desired point on the river bank, under cover of the night, they opened fire last Monday morning on the enemy's transports coming up with reinforcements and supplies for McClellan's army. The first transport was disabled and driven back, and as soon as the position of our artillery became known, the enemy brought up his gunboats and shelled them at a desperate rate. Managing, however, to avoid their range, our boys waited till evening, when a large fleet of transports appeared in the river, supported by gunboats. Col. Lee then ordered them into battery on the bank just opposite, when they poured into the Yankee vessels a terrible fire of shot and shell. Having a

nd exultation. The London Post charges the American Government with being all along influenced solely by popular clamor, having never pursued an independent course. The Morning Herald finds it impossible to account for the inactivity of McClellan. Possibly, it says, after the battle of Fair Cake, and the breaking up of Beauregard's army in the West, he does not me his way clearly, and may not himself outnumbered by the enemy, in a position which in impregnable, and from which the enemyWest, he does not me his way clearly, and may not himself outnumbered by the enemy, in a position which in impregnable, and from which the enemy may fall upon his lines and works at pleasures.

s pretty evident that they mean to exert their whole strength, and stake the issue of the war upon the capture of Richmond. For this purpose they will not only concentrate all the forces they now have in existence, but will raise as many more as they possibly can. Lincoln has already called for 300,000 recruits. Whether he will get them or not, is one thing. Whether we ought to act as though he had already obtained there, is another. It is our opinion that we decidedly ought so to act. McClellan, we are disposed to think, has by no means relinquished his designs upon this city. He expects to be reinforced in his present position by Halleck's army, by all the troops he can bring from North and South Carolina, and from Georgia, and possibly Florida, in addition to the recruits already mentioned. This, at least, is our view of the case, although we confess we have no date upon which the opinion is founded. It seems to us that it would be the part of wisdom to act precisely as thou

Northern accounts of McClellan'sdefeat in Virginia. North, July 9. --A special dispatch to the Tribune, from Grenada, yesterday, says that Northern papers of the 6th contain copious accounts of McClellan's defeat in Virginia. They try to McClellan's defeat in Virginia. They try to claim the capture of 700 prisoners, and acknowledge the loss of twenty thousand men, thirty pieces of artillery, and a large amount of commissary and ordnance stores. They admit the capture by the Confederates of Gens. Reynolds and McCall, state thnks of James river, fifteen miles from Richmond. Their transports are at the wharves unloading supplies for the army.
