The very Latest.

From information received at a late hour last night we learn that the enemy were also landing at Wilcox Wharl, in Charles City county, and that the force at Bermuda Hundreds, in transports, was estimated at 9,000.

Our force at Forge Bridge, below the Chickahominy, were driven off by superior numbers.

A number of houses were burned by the enemy at New Kent C. H., and it is supposed that the Court-House was also burned.
