The capture of the railroad, which so much facilitated the speedy removal of our sick and wounded, is a sad blow to our suffering soldiers. They will now have to be removed to City Point, on the James river, where transports have been sent. The New York Press on the News. The New York Herald, of the 2d instant, gives the following editorial comments on the news from McClellan, as far as it had been received: In thlellan's loss was 10,000.

often baffled by the very folly and inconsequence of his adversary. The rebels, however, are not wholly destitute of method in their lunacy; and if we may confide in a revelation made through a Nassau paper, and since very generally circulated in the South, they have a very clear and well defined plan for maintaining the war at least through the months of summer and early fall. Richmond taken, they propose a retirement to the mountains. Scattered while the hot weather prevails among the Alleghenies and the elevated grounds in the neighborhood, they propose to recruit and remodel their army for a winter campaign, leaving the Union forces to perish along the unwholesome seaboard. With the aid of innumerable guerrilla parties, they expect to keep enough of the open country clear of the enemy to leave them abundant supplies, and not wholly without means of communication with the coast, where, from time to time, the British vessels, bearing arms and munitions, will land those always n

forces to the southward had been spoken with; and the now compact mass of the Union army was ready for the next word of its commander. Of the rebel army we hear actually nothing. Whether that section of it which pushed to the railroad and the York river still remains there; or, finding that in their occupation they had achieved a barren conquest, and that it were altogether useless to attempt to hold or use it, whether they have drawn back again to the main line of defences, hear the rebel capawait the onset of McClellan, we are quite in the dark. We should judge that the latter would be their policy, and that they would have carried it out just as rapidly as possible.--They cannot cross the Chickahominy; they cannot operate on the York river, or anywhere north or east of it; and so, perhaps, leaving a small force for the sake of show, and to give themselves assurance of a victory won, Jackson at once hastened in the direction of the beleaguered capital.
