York (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 3
Generals supposed that if they left Washington alone, the Federals on their part would keep their hands off Richmond. But General McClellan, having been totally inactive for nine or ten months, was of opinion that it was time to bestir himself and take some part in the war.--Accordingly, he shipped off a large portion of lds force to the vicinity of Portress Monroe, leaving McDowell, with a comparatively small army, to guard the Rappahannock. By the aid of the gunboats on the James and York rivers, he fought his way along the Yorktown peninsula, the Confederate army retreating before him till it had passed the Chickahominy, when it made a stand under the walls of Richmond. Now, it is clear that this Confederate army is being pressed, very closely, so that, if we look only at Beauregard and McClellan, the opposing Generals here, we should say that the fate of Richmond was hanging in the balance. The latter had crossed at Bottom's Bridge and at New Bridge, but instead of attack

cessary diversion could be effected. Now that it has been done, it strikes us like a new idea. The Confederates have once more put Washington in danger. When, a few months since, they ceased to threaten Washington, McClellan attacked Richmond; were they once more advancing towards it, he would wish himself anywhere rather than behind the Chickahominy. The Federals in Virginia form a long line, of which McClellan forms the left wing, McDowell the centre, and Banks, who was beyond the Alleghenies, the right wing. The left, as we know, has been pushing on. On his side, the "lawyer General" Banks has been moving along the Valley of the Shenandoah. McDowell, having reached Fredericksburg on the Rappahannock, stood still. The success of the operations of this vast army depended, of course, on the integrity of each portion of the long line which we have indicated. But, for a time, the right wing was driven back, and the whole line turned. For some reason or other a part of Banks

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 this has already been given, and it declares that "we are approaching a time when a more important question even than that of an offer of mediation may have to be considered by England and France." What is that but an Armed intervention? Sir J. Walsh seems to be at least of opinion that the Southern Confederacy has given the proof of "consistency," if not of "force," sufficient for nationality. He declared in his speech that "all accounts agreed in stating that wherever the Northern armie

outh to prevent his junction with McDowell. We think we may say that this reinforcement of the Federal army has been effectually prevented for the present, so that if Beauregard decides to hold Richmond, he will be able to do so for some time to come. Before the arrival of the last mail no one here had over hazarded a guess as to the way in which this necessary diversion could be effected. Now that it has been done, it strikes us like a new idea. The Confederates have once more put Washington in danger. When, a few months since, they ceased to threaten Washington, McClellan attacked Richmond; were they once more advancing towards it, he would wish himself anywhere rather than behind the Chickahominy.

war, and which would probably insure the capture of Richmond, took place at the close of last week, but the particulars we are not permitted to publish, Secretary Stanton having taken upon himself to prohibit the sending of all dispatches from Washington giving the details of the fight. This decision of the Secretary of War will profoundly incense an anxious public. The people who are waging this war have a right to know the news as soon after it is known at Washington as is consistent wi have been deemed inexpedient to make any publication of the disjointed facts in possession of the Government. Another and not so hopeful view of the case may be that after the telegraph agent left the ground to take his special message to Washington another battle may have taken place not so favorable to our arms, or which had not been concluded up to last evening. There is an unpleasant rumor, by way of City Point, that "Stonewall" Jackson turned the right of Gen. McClellan's line on Thu

Nashville, June 28. --At the special second conference of clergymen before Governor Johnson all declined to take the oath of allegiance, Most of them were sent to the Penitentiary, prior to their removal to General Halleck, for the purpose of being exchanged for Tennessee prisoners. Many Nashville churches will be without pastors to-morrow. Among those sent to durance were the Rev Drs. Baldwin, Schouc, and Sawvle, Methodists, and Ford and Howell, Baptists. The Rev.

Absconded Slave--$25 reward. --Left my place on James river, upper end of Henrico county, on Sunday last, June 29, 1862 without any cause, my Servant Man, Cornelius, commonly called Buck. He is about 25 years of age, rather small, well made, black, good, teeth, likely, and no marks; about 5 feet 7 inches high. He is no doubt lurking about Richmond or endeavoring to get employment as servant in some of the camps, having many acquaintances among the servants in Richmond, but in no other place. For his safe delivery to Blair & Chamberlayne, or placed in jail so they get him, they will pay the above reward. jy 4--6t John Wickham.
