given for such interference will be "the cause of humanity," From the James River.[Correspondence of the New York Tribune] James River Squadron, June 23.--I send you the official report of the affairs at Watkins's Bluff, on the 20th inst., and as it speaks for itself, we shall offer no comments. We have had some changes here within the last few days. Our squadron is lying this P. M. off City, Point, Contrabands bring the intelligence that the Confederates claim to have lost one man killed and one man's arm shot off in the fight on the 20th, at Watkins's Bluff. It that is all, they came off very lucky We, as I stated before, had no one injured in the least, although they claim to have killed 20 men, as we are also informed by contrabands: United States Steamer Jacon Bell.James River, June 21, 1862.

nd was covered with dead rebels and wounded. There were a great many that were only wounded, and they were very spunky; that is, some of them were, After they were wounded, they would set up and fire at our men as they came up; but the boys soon put them out of the way by running their bayonets through them. It looked rather hard, but when a man is wounded he ought to be satisfied to stop." A capture in the woods. A correspondent sends us the following incident of the fight on the 30th: Five members of the 7th Virginia regiment, having been detailed as a guard on the Mechanicsville turnpike near the Chickahominy, were told by a wounded soldier that there were some twenty-five Yankees in the woods near by. The guard, having been reinforced by two Texans, determined to capture the Yankees at all hazards. Soon after they left, they heard that a squad of cavalry, under command of Lieut. Yager, had gone in pursuit of the enemy. Horner and his companions proceeded at doub

e at Charleston with as much avidity as he did upon that in Banks department. On this subject Hon. J. A. Gurley has received a letter from a highly intelligent adopted citizen of Ohio, who has been in England for the past six months, spending much time in the cotton district. He says: Firstly — I have the best reasons for knowing that intervention in our affairs was determined upon by England and France some months ago, and for the reasons, amongst others, I gave you in my letter of March last. Secondly — This determination would have been acted upon before this had not the contest between the Monitor and Merrimac taken Europe — the world, in fact — by surprise, and upset all the calculations of France and England especially. They became alarmed for their own safety. Thirdly — The dread of a Monitor fleet, which I understand we are now building, adds another to the reasons which determined these Powers to interfere, and they will never permit this fleet to be comp

The foreign Press on the War. We take the following extracts from the London Standard and Courier des Elais Unis. The latter journal is published in New York city, and is the organ of the French inhabitants there. Its remark" are peculiarly forcible and bold: A Review of the situation,[from the London standard, June 13th.] The profitless waste of blood and treasure that is caused by the American civil war is again attracting the attention of European statesmen, and the necessity of some immediate step in the direction of mediation of a peaceful kind is being urged upon them in the name of humanity and civilization,--France, to her credit, is again taking the lead in this matter. We transferred to our columns two days since an eloquent article from the Constitutional on this subject. This has been followed by a hint in another semi-official paper, to the effect that a joint proposal of mediation by France and England in the American quarrel might be shortly expected. W

The question of intervention. It was rightly remarked in this paper yesterday morning that the details of the foreign news by the Arable, with dates to the 14th June, were much more important than the telegraphic summary published by us on Monday led us to suppose. The New York Herald confesses this. The language of Sir James Walsh and of Mr. Gregory, in debate in the House of Commons, was singularly pointed and energetic, and Lord Palmerston, in concluding his own denunciation of Butler's infamous proclamation, expressly approved the sentiments and language uttered by those two speakers. Mr. Gregory concluded with this remarkable sentence: "He did not appeal to his honorable friend, the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to reply to this question, but he did ask the Prime Minister of England if he was prepared to do that which he was convinced the Ruler of brave and chivalrous France would do, if he had not already done it — namely, to protest against this th

nry for publishing "certain unauthorized news" regarding the movements of Gen. McClellan. We take the following extracts from the Northern papers: The situation before Richmond.[Correspondence of the New York Tribune.] Fortress Monroe, June 27.--They who have known the reasons for delay on the Chickahominy, and have experienced no disappointment that the impending battle has not been fought, begin to turn in expectancy towards the quarter that has so long engaged the attention of the witical suicide, and will never be able to recover from this last most miserable fear pas, The action of the President is university approved, and the conduct of General Banks highly commended. Important rumor from Richmond.

occasion appears to have been very great. Thanks retreated in haste from Winchester to Martinsburg, and seems never to have looked behind him till he got across the Potomac at Williamsport, a place about 15 miles to the North of Harper's Ferry. The complacent manner in which Mr. Banks narrated to Secretary Stanton this disastrous history of his having lost in two days as much as he had gained in two months, was positively pitiable. Simple Reflections.[from the Courier des Etats Unis, June 28.] The American situation has arrived at a point where it would be well that the sincerely patriotic voices should be raised for the purpose of imposing silence on the passion of party, and calling the nation to the calm examination of the prospect before it. From the triple point of view — military, financial, and political — the march of events is of a nature to inspire anxiety rather than confidence.--The desired end seems more distant every day; sacrifices are accumulating; embarrassm
