EAST INDIA COMPANY. A general Court of Proprietors of the Company took place yesterday at the offices in Lothbury, Col. Sykes, M.P., in the chair. The CHAIRMAN announced that the dividends would be ready for payment on Monday, July 7. Various matters pro forma having been disposed of, Mr. JOHN JONES, a proprietor, moved, pursuant to notice—" That in view of the refusal of the Chan cellor of the Exchequer to provide the necessary funds for the expenso of the East India Company as by law required, it is expedient to consider how far the validity of treaties made by the East India Company with European Powers and with native princes in the East, the advantages of which are now enjoyed by the Crown, depends by the law of nations en the existence of the East India Company, so far as those European Power and native princes who are parties to the treaties are concerned. That the official ann o un ce ment of 25,000 notices of eviction to tenant farmers in one district issued by ruropean Zemin dare under the new Government of the Crown in Indi a , with the of policy is ah prospect alarm i n o gf feature Bo,Oo i more n the be i g about t o l low prin ciplesadopted by th e new administra tion." Mr. ons observed that it was a hasty Act of the Legisl a t ure i that deprived the East of ts India Company all p owers. Parliament did not e take into account f the c o c i ci l t a e t r e s r t. a I a c n i d r c u o m t h s e t r a t : c e b s y t r eaties and by concessions o. Con o Esst India posses sions were gained by A large portion contended, from na ti ve vehrnement of E ng l an d , and ended, wer e in valid,aorsdee d t r t e h a e t i G e s o , the company w ere now subsis ting on an illegal fund, arising from unclaimed dividends which did not pro perly belong to them. The hon. proprietor p r o. seeded at some len g th to ur g e the ar guments on which he based his motion. He maintained that this company had fair ground for negotiation and reta liation, if necessary, with the Government, in the position that they held as depositories of the various treaties which had been effected from time to time with the native princes, upon whom, in his opinion, the law was not binding under existing cireum_ stances. Mr. SHAW seconded the motion. Mr. COOK said that, although he ag reed with Mr. Jones as to the illegality of the fund in question, he thought it would be unwise and unprofitable to hold out any retaliatory threats to the Government. The CHAIRMAN stated that the Act of Parliament had completely extinguished the political functions of this company, and therefore they had no power to entertain the motion. The CmuumArt suggested that Mr. Jones should THE NAVY. A letter from Malta, dated Valetta, June 7, says : —" Besides the arrival of the Royal squadron, the following ships of the Mediterranean fleet have arrived during the week I—The Pelican, screw corvette, 17, Captain P. Brock, on Tuesday, from the Pirceua, with 17 naval invalids ; the Trident, paddlewheel sloop, 3, Commander C. J. Balfour, on Wednesday, from Naples; end the Growler, screw gunboat, 3, on Thursday, from Bengazi and Tripoli, with Messrs. Gibson and Preece. The Turkish screw war steamer Malakoff, Captain Selim Bey, arrived on Tuesday from Tunis and Tripoli, with his Excellency said Pasha and suite, and left on Saturday for Constantinople. The Prussian Go vernment steamer Lorley, Captain Lirvonius, came in on Saturday from Constantinople and Athens, and proceeded for Algiers on Tuesday." The Shannon, screw frigate, Captain Wainwright, was yesterday placed in dock at Portsmouth, to ship her six-bladed serew, in readiness for her next ex perimental trial, which will take place, weather permitting, to-morrow. The Black Prince, iron frigate, at Portsmouth, is taking on board her armament in readiness for commission. The Actaeon, surveying frigate, Commander Ward, arrived at Spithead on Tuesday evening from China. She sailed from Hong Kong, Jan. 9 ; Anjer, Jan. 23 ; Cape of Good Hope, March 29 ; St. Helena, April 15 ; Ascension, 22d ; and Fayal, June 2. It will be seen from the above dates that her voyage home has extended beyond the average period, a fact doubtless owing to the state of the ship's bottom. She brings home a few passengers and invalids from the station. Having received orders to be paid off at Portsmouth, she was taken into harbour last evening under sail and berthed alongside to clear out and dismantle. The Actmon is barque rigged, and her entrance into Portsmouth harbour yesterday under sail, with a fine fresh south-west bretze blowing, was a somewhat un usual sight in these days when steam is universally employed. Her Majesty's screw steamships Revenge, 73, Capt. Charles Fellowes, flag of Rear-Admiral Robert Smart, K.H., and the Trafalgar, 70, Capt. John B. Dixon, the screw steam frigate Emerald, 35, Capt. Arthur Cumming, and the screw steam sloop Chanticleer, 17, Commander Charles Stirling, from the eastward, arrived in Plymouth Sound yes terday morning. The Alecto, from the West Coast of Africa, which arrived . on Tuesday morning at Plymouth is ordered to Woolwich, where her crew will be paid off. A letter from Plymouth, dated Wednesday, states that in consequence of a strong breeze from the S.W. by S. the flagship Revenge carried away her bower cable when anchoring in the Sound this morning ; and in the afternoon the ship Result, 1,463 tons, Capt. Dickenson, from London, carried away both chains, and made a stern board down upon the brig Yantippe, 225 tons, Capt. Rees, from London for Rangoon, at anchor in Batten Bay. Had not the ship's port bumkin caught the brig's fore rigging, she might have run ashore; but, the jib having been hoisted, the Result wore round on her heel freely to the north, and Pilot Edward Glinn threaded her skilfully through a fleet of windbound vessels in Cape Water up to a place of safety. She belongs to Mr. Green, has a full and valuable cargo for Melbourne, and had on board about 70 of her passengers. The brig has lost her port cathead bulw: rks and six stancheons. Admi ral Fitzroy's drum storm signal has been hoisted here to •day. THE ARMY. The 55th Regiment, under the command of Col. Robert Hume, was yesterday officially inspected on Southsea Common, this being the first occasion since their arrival in Portsmouth Garrison from the Channel Islands. The regiment formed in line on the common at half-past 10, and immediately after wards the inspecting officer, Major-General Lord W. Paulet, C. 8., accompanied by his Staff, arrived on the ground, and was received with a general salute. After a minute inspection by his Lordship the regiment marched past in slow and quick time, at the latter in grand divisions of companies. Re forming on the original alignment, the manual platoon, and bayonet exercises were gone through. A few manoeuvres followed, but were of a neces sarily brief character, owing to the inclement state of the weather. At the close the regiment formed square, and his Lordship, riding into the centre, briefly addressed the men. After this they were marched back to their quarters. In the afternoon Lord Paulet visited the orderly-room, school, and barrack-rooms. The annual dinner of the 71st Highland Ligh Infantry Club took place at the. London Tavern on Tuesday, 10th inst., Viscount Falkland in the chair. The following members were present, viz.—the Earl of Morton, the Hon. H. Duncan, Sir Hew Dalrymple, Sir Thomas Erskine, Sir A. P. Gordon Cumming, Major-General Stack, Lieut.-Colonels BlennerhasEett and Colyill ; Capts. Hamilton, Halkett, Dashwood, Horne, Sigrave, Buokenden, Mounsey, O'Malley, Fairholme ; Messrs. Howard, Musgrave, Blair, and Morgan. • The annual dinner of the Royal Artillery took place at Willis's Rooms on Monday last, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge in the chair. Up wards of 100 gentlemen were present, among whom we noticed Sir G. Pollock, Sir W. Brereton, Gene. Brooke, Sir R. Dacres, Dupuis, Tulloh, Wingfield, G. Higgins, D. Grant, Arbuckle, Wylde, and Bloom field ; Cols. Teesdale, Bingham, Sandham, Burnaby, Crofton, St. George, D'Aguilar, Wodehouse, Ask with, Anderson, Brougham, Gambier, and Thomas ; Capt. Forbes, &c. The Chairman, after proposing "the health of her Majesty the Queen and his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales," made a speech, in which he intimated his approval of the recent amalgamation of the Royal Artillery regi ments. Sir George Pollock, in returning thanks, pointed out the advantage that he had derived from having had command of an army in the field, and said that every artillery officer from his particular professional education ought to have sufficient knowledge of military affairs to take the command lof a division of the army. Several speeches fol lowed, especial honour being done to Capt. Forbes, the secretary, whose health was drunk. His Royal Highness took his departure about half-past 11. His Royal Highness the Prince Carignan° and suite yesterday visited Woolwich Garrison, and were received by General Sir Richard Dacres and staff in full uniform. Soon after his Royal High ness rode up to the review ground and witnessed the field-day evolutions of the mounted batteries of the Royal Horse Artillery, and the field brigades supplied with the Armstrong guns. The proceed ings rep resen t e d an attack and defence of a position on r the slope of the hill. The Prince expressed evolutionsimself much delighted with the appearance and o of the Artillery, and admired the pre cision and regularity eaki n g their fr o w n h t. i c theyh p ur During g gallopedth these past pro ceedings on without b Saxe-Coburg Woolwich common Prince Philippe of Gotha and s uite were inspecting the Dockyard, ov er which they were accompanied by Sir Frederic Nicol son, the Commodore-Superinten dent. The Princ e visited, with much apparent i n terest, Capt. Cole s ' s cupola on board the Trusty, a s well as the Caledoni a , an d other ships under cons t ru ction in the yard, and l e ft W oo l w i c h in the Commodore's State barge at 2 o'clock, Yesterday the second annual review of the cadet companies attached to the various metropolitan and suburban Volunteer corps took place at the cricket ground of the Crystal Palace, in the presence of a large number of spectators, among whom was a con siderable l roportion of ladies, who appeared to take a peculiar interest in the proceedings, and re peatedly testified their admiration at the manner in which the different evolutions were performed. The inspecting officer was Lord Elcho, lieutenant-colonel commanding the London Scottish Rifles, and the arrangements were under the superintendence of Captain Lowry, Adjutant of the 2d Tower Hamlets Rifles, and Captain Reynolds of the 4th City, who acted respectively as Aide-de-Camp and Adjutant. The following is a list of the corps which were present yesterday, together with the number of rank and file to each, as near as could be ascer tained. The Queen's (Westminster), 100; London Rifle Brigade, 80; St. George's Rifles, 90; South Middlesex, 36 ; 4th Middlesex (Islington), 20; 19th Middlesex, 22; 29th (North) Middlesex, 50; 33d Middlesex (Tottenham, 70 ; 36th Middlesex (Pad dington), and 37th Middlesex (Bloomsbury), 36; 40th Middlesex, 40 ; 3d Kent, 80 ; 13th Kent and 28th Kent (Charlton), 60; 2d Tower Hamlets, 90; 4th Tower Hamlets and 6th Tower Hamlets, 40 ; 3d City of London, 20 ; Islington companies of the 4th City of London, 20; West Middlesex, 46; and 48th Middlesex, 20. Each corps was commanded by cadet officers. .Altogether, counting all ranks, there could not have been less than about 800 pre sent. Upon the arrival of the inspecting officer the cadets presented arms, after which he passed down the ranks and assumed the command. The follow ing movements were then performed : Open column right in front ; march past in quick time; left wheel into line ; manual exercise ; open column left in front ; right wheel into line ; line retired and advanced ; from the right of companies passed by fours to the rear, and halted ; formed square on leading company, and reformed column, which wheeled to the left and deployed on the leading company ; then formed open column in the rear of the left company ; right wheel into line. The line then advanced, halted, and formed quarter dis tance columns in rear of No. 1; afterwards the column wheeled to the left and halted, retired, and deployed on the rear company. The rear rank took open order. The whole lino then advanced in review order, halted, presented arms, took close orders, and formed quarter distance column right in front on No. 5. The whole of these evolutions were very well performed, particularly the advancing, retiring, and wheeling into line, which elicited the repeated cheers of the spectators. At the conclusion, Lord Elcho addressed them. He said that he could not' let them go without saying a few words. When asked to inspect them he took it as a very great compliment, and he was very glad to be present 1 , that day, for they had acquitted themselves very creditably; indeed, nothing could have been done better than the advancing and retiring in line, and they had done what the big Volunteers did not, viz., advanced in line in slow march, as her Majesty's sol diers did. He recommended them not to relax in their drill. He hoped that there had been many foreigners present to see the admirable way in which they had gone through their evolutions, because they would see that the youth of this country was at the root of the volunteer movement, and that, although we were not a warlike nation—that was, a nation which delighted in war—we were still a martial people, with plenty of spirit and good stuff in us. The rain fell heavily during his lordship's address, and at its conclusion, three cheers having been given for her Majesty and three for Lord Elcho, the whole of the boys scampered off for the nearest shelter, with the exception of the 2d Tower Ham lets and another corps, who marched steadily after the band of the former to the Paine. NORTH EAST LONDON RIFLES. The official inspection of this regiment has been postponed by the Inspecting-General. It will take place on the 21st.inst. in the Regent's Park at half past seven o'clock. BRADFORD. On Tuesday afternoon Lord Fitzwilliam, K.G., Lord-Lieutenant of the West Riding of Yorkshire, reviewed about 1,000 Volunteers in Peel-park, Bradford. The day being a holiday, and there being a gala in the park for the joint benefit of the Bradford Infirmary and the park fund, the atten dance of spectators was immense, certainly 50,000, as indicated by the money received for admission. The following Volunteer corps were present :-2d West York (Bradford) Artillery, fcur companies, commanded by Major Wood ; Pudsey and Farsley Artillery, commanded by Captain Pepper; 3d West York (Bradford) Rifles, six companies; 6th West York (Huddert-field) Rifles, four companies, com manded by Major Crosland; and the 35th and 39th West York (Keighley and Bingley) Rifles, who for drill purposes are attached to the Bradford Corps. The review commenced at half-past four o'clock. Lieutenant-Colonel Lister, of the 3d West York (Bradford) Rifle Corps, commanded the brigade, which consisted of three battalions. On entering the park the Lord-Lieutenant, who wore his uniform and blue riband, was received with a salute of 19 guns, fired by No. 1 battery of the Bradford Artillery Corps. His lordship was accompanied by Sir John Ramaden, Bart., M.P., who was attired as a deputy-lieutenant of the riding, and by Lieutenant-Colonel Harman, one of her Ma jesty's Inspectors of Rifle Volunteer Corps-. After receiving the Lord-Lieutenant with a salute in line, and marching past with the Rifle Corps, the Ar tillery Volunteers took no further part in the brigade movements of the day, which were performed by the other corps in a very soldierlike manner. Each man had ten rounds of blank ammunition. At the conclusion of the review the Lord-Lieutenant ad dressed the brigade, and said it must be a great gra tification to the whole of the corps assembled to know that during the last two years they had made themselves to no small extent good and efficient soldiers. It was a gratification to him to come among them, and to witness what they had done, and he thought that what he saw around him was a proof of the esteem in which they were held by their townsmen and neighbours. Alluding to the new •barracks of the Bradford Rifle Corps, his Lordship said he did not think t hat a more effi cient place for praisethe purpose t ohe adjutant t of drill coofu theld be corpsf found, n (Captain and he gave Pepper) for his exertions in connection with the erection of the barracks. It was a credit to all of them, and a credit to the town of Bradford, that they had so suitable a place in which to go through, during the more inclement seasons of the year, the duties that devolved upon them. Lieutenant-Colonel Lister, on behalf of the Rifle Volunteers, returned thanks to Lord Fitzwilliam for having come among them, and said he had no doubt that, with the patronage and moral support of those who held high stations in the land, the Volunteer movement would remain a great institution for years to come. The Lord- Lieutenant afterwards inspected the Bradford corps of Artillery Volunteers, and addressed them in very complimentary terms, Major Wood returning thanks. His lordship was loudly cheered by the troops at the conclusion of the proceedings. The ground during the review was well kept 13 .. y the Artillery Volunteers of Pudsey and Farsley, under the command of Captain Pepper. Refreshments for the whole of the corps were provided by the Park Gala Committees, free of expense. The old charter of the State of Connecticut, in the United States, granted by Charles 11., 200 years ago, still hangs in the office of the Secretary of State at Hartford, the capital of tile above-uamed state. necessary permission having been obtained from her Majesty (the Prince being still in mourning, and travelling under the title of lhron Renfrew), preparations were at once commenced to give him . _ a suitable reception. The intimation first given to the public stated that his Royal Highness might be expected to arrive on the 6th inst., and the city de corations were undertaken in that belief. It be came known on the arrival of her Majesty's ship Firebrand, on Tuesday, that owing to the indispo• sition of General Bruce, one of his Royal Highness's suite, the Prince had resolved to leave Cephalonia a day earlier, and that he might be expected here on Thursday, the sth, instead of Friday, the 6th, as originally intended. This alteration of plan sub• jected the committee of management to considerable inconvenience, as it was impossible to complete in time the street embellishments according to the original programme. However, the truth of the trite old saying, " Where there's a will there's a way," was never more or better exemplified than on this occasion. Early the day before yesterday the tower signal announced the approach of the Royal squadron, consisting of the Royal yacht Osborne, her Majesty's ship Doris, Dapt. Sir F. L. M'Clintock, and her Majesty's ship Magicienne, Captain his Serene Highness the Prince of Leiningen ; and at 7 o'clock the Osborne, with his Royal Highness on board, entered the Great Harbour, followed closely by the other two vessels. The yacht was immediately boarded by Capt. Brett, aide-de-camp to the Gover nor, and at 11 precisely his Royal Highness landed, amid the most deafening cheers and acclamations of the thousands of persons who fringed the bastions and swarmed along the wharves, and on every poin, 'rom whence a view of the scene could be obtained The quiet ship's boat in which the Prince landed wad made to pass through two long lines of native gondolas filled with well-dressed people, and deco rated with flags and awnings, whose bright colours, under our southern sunshine, reminded one strongly of those bright and fairy scenes from the history of " fair Venice" illustrated by the gifted pencils of Canaletti and Turner, At the landing-place, which was handsomely decorated with carpeting and damask, and sur mounted by a light arch, over which floated the Royal standard, the Prince was received by a depu tation of the clergy, the elected members of Council, and the leading merchants and gentry, whose cor dial welcome he very gracefully acknowledged. On the Prince landing, the Governor presented to him Canon Amato (as locum tenens of the Roman Catholic Bishop), who was on the right-hand side on the jetty, and then the elected members of the Council of Government, who were on the left. A handsome bouquet of artificial flowers, worked in filagree by the nuns of St. Ursula, was then pre sented to the Prince by the children of several re spectable inhabitants, who wore an appropriate fancy costume, He here entered one of the car riages prepared for him, accompanied by the Gover nor in plain clothes, and proceeded along the route sketched out in the committee's programme, pre ceded by the deputation who had received him on landing, and the University students, bearing silk banners, with golden inscriptions of " Welcome," "Prince of Wales," " England for ever," &c., and by great crowds waving flags and cheering vehe mently. From Calcara-gate, the place of disem barkation, to the Floriana-gardens, the road by which the Prince had to pass was skirted by fes toons and garlands draped between poles, and mil- way, on the rising ground, a very handsome triumphal arch was erected, on which was inscribed the word " Welcome," and which, it is said, elicited the warm admiration of the Royal party. Una platform on the right, inside Porta Reale, a stage of seats had been constructed, on which were grouped a brilliant assemblage of handsome and fashionably-dressed ladies, and in the centre were placed several hundred children of the Pri mary schools, neatly attired, who sang with singu lar pathos and in full chorus our beautiful National Anthem, " God Save the Queen," and " Rule Bri tannia," and who threw showers of bouquets into the Prince's carriage as he proceeded. This throw ing of flowers was repeated from many of the windows and balconies as he drove through the main street, which was beautifully and artistically decorated for the occasion. From the summits of Venetian poles, skirting the footway along the entire length of the Strada Reale, floated gay banners. Wreaths of myrtle and festoons of ever greens drooped from post to post, and at each point of contact a shield, with the ensigns of England and Malta united, was placed within a garland. From the windows and housetops floated flags and tapestry of bright colours. At intervals along the street ornamenal arches broke the monotony, and produced a very pretty effect. Crowds of well conducted and picturesquely- dressed people, thronging every thoroughfare, rendered the scene one of those grand fairy-like, 'pictorial displays which no description, however vivid, can recall. The carriage containing the Prince then continued its way to the Palace-square, which was decorated in the fashion of the Strada Real, with the addition of the mottoes— " God save the Queen." "England for over." "Long live the Prince of Wales." And the inscription—" Magna et invictm Britannia Melitensium amor et Europa vox has insulas con firmant. An. MDCCCIV." In the evening the illuminations, not only in Va letta, but in the suburban towns and villages, were all but general. In front of the Palace a richly-decorated stage was erected for tho accommodation of vocal and in strumental musicians, embracing all the choicest professional talent of the place, and who performed a hymn composed for the occasion in a manner which gave great satisfaction to the Prince and Royal party, who occupied the Palace balcony dur ing the performance. The crowd, which was com posed of the best of the Maltese and English inha bitants with their families, and whiaa entirely filled the square and the streets leading to it, seized every opportunity between the parts of enthusiasti cally cheering the Prince, who repeatedly bowed his acknowledgments. At the close of "God save the Queen," which was performed with beautiful effect, the Prince w ithdrew e , but the people kept up the rejoicings until a late hour. The Prince was on horseback by 7 on Friday morning, and accompanied by the Governor and I Staff visited the chief points along the fortifications and bastions, and at 11 a.m. witnessed fro fic m the Palace tower the discharge of the guns on the forts bearing seaward, and of the ships of war in port, directed against two steamers made to represent an approaching enemy, The effect was much heightened by the line walls being manned by the troops, W h o also discharged their pieces at the approaching vessels. In the afternoon the Prince visitcd the soldiers' gardens at Floriana, and rode out to St. George's Bay , w here he laid the founda tion stone of a soldiers' library, in connection with the barracks recently constructed there. At night the illumina tions Were reheated with in creased brillian c y an d his Royal Hi g h ness v i s i ted effect. This m ornin g several spots of interest in the island, and intends, I am informed, leaving on return to England, via Marseilles, to-night. SounumPToN,Wednesday.--The North German Lloyd screw steamship Bremen, Captain 11. Wessels, sailed hence at 2 p.m. for New York, with the German and English ,nails, about 300 passengers (of NV 11 in 101 are in 11w saloon), 9,500 dols in specie from Havre, and a large cargo. Sh e has no Ppecio from England, LIVERPOOL, JUNE 1 1 . The Great Eastern arrived here this morning. She l e ft New York on the Ist inst., and brings nearly 400 passengers, and 56,000 (hi s . i n speck. The steam ship Kangaroo arrived at New YOI k May 29. The most important feature of news by this mail is the evacuation of Corinth by the Confederates, full details of which will be found below. Mr. Dawes, in a speech in Congress, stated that the expenses of the Federal Government, from March 4, 1861, to May 22, 1862, amounted, in round numbers, to 441,000,000 dols., and that the total debt of the country a t the present moment was 411,000,000 do's. The accuracy of these figures was questioned by several members. In reference to the Tax Bill, Mr. Harris gave an opinion that it was severe on commerce and manufactures, and that one-fifth of the whole would be paid by the city of New York. The President has appointed, and the Senate confirmed, John A. Hedrick, collector for the port of Beaufort, North Carolina. A despatch, countersignel by General M'Clel lan's chief of staff, states that by the burning of a bridge across a creek on the line of the Richmond, Fredericksburg, and Potomac Mini-._ -_, ica tion is cut off between Richmond and the army of General Jackson. The Richmond Inquirer strongly opposes any further retreat of the Confederate army, and recom• mends a battle before Richmond. General Wool has issued still more stringent re gulations against trade and commerce in Norfolk. A serious disturbance had taken place at Norfolk. The particulars are not fully given, but it appears a negro attacked a Union soldier, and part of a New York regiment was called upon to quell the disturbance. Three negroes were killed, two or three wounded, and the leaders imprisoned. The British steam ship Stettin, in charge of Acting Master J. D. Barclay, from Charleston Bar, May 24, arrived at New York, May 29. The Stettin was captured off Cape Romaine, May 24, while attempting to run the blockade at Charleston. She has a cargo of brandy, wines, saltpetre, &c., which, with the vessel, is valued at 500,000 dollars. She was from Nassau, N.P. The St. Louis Republican says that trouble is breaking out afresh in Western Tennessee. A considerable force of rebels is said to be at Trenton ready to march on Union City and Hick man. Union men from Weakly and Obion counties were flocking to Hickman for protection, and 400 or 500 rebel cavalry were stationed at the mouth of Obion river, awaiting the draining of the swamp in that region to plant a battery to prevent the pas sage of the Federal transports on the Mississippi. The New York journals state that it is the custom in New Orleans to imprison public women found in the streets of New Orleans in the Cala boose, and that the meaning of General Butler's order directing that ladies of New Orleans who show contempt for Federal soldiers are to be treated as women of the town plying their avocation, is that they are to be imprisoned in the Calaboose. No explanation, however, could in any way pal liate the issuing of an order so disgraceful and so little creditable to the manliness of Gen. Butler. A correspondent of the New York Times, writing from camp, ten miles from Richmond, May 24, says : " The hope that many entertained of the Confe derates retreating from Richmond to a point fur ther south seems to have vanished, and the bloodi est battle of the war is expected here. It may not be impossible, to-day it seems probable, that our troops will have to go into the trenches again, and that the heavy Parrott guns will be brought from Yorktown and planted on the banks of the Chick ahominy. As to the number of their force, there is little doubt but that they have concentrated suffi cient to outnumber us greatly." EVACUATION OF CORINTH. DESPATCHES FROM GENERAL HALLECK. " Head-quarters, Department of the Mississippi, Camp on the Corinth road, May 28, Three strong reconnoitring columns advanced this morning on the right, centre, and left, to feel the enemy and unmask his batteries. The enemy hotly contested his ground at each point, but was driven back with considerable loss. " The column on the left encountered the strongest opposition. Our loss is 25 killed and wounded. The enemy left 30 dead on the field. Oar losses at other points are not yet ascertained. Some five or six offi cers and a number of privates were captured. " The fighting will probably be renewed to-mor row at daybreak. The whole country is so thickly wooded that we are compelled to feel our way. "H. W. HALLECK, Major General. " Hon. E. M. Stanton." " Near Corinth, May 30. " General Pope's heavy batteries opened upon the enemy's entrenchments yesterday about 10 a.m., and soon drove the rebels from their advanced batteries. "Major-General W. T. Sherman established another heavy battery yesterday afternoon within 1,000 yards of their works, and skirmishing parties advanced at daybreak this morning. Three of our divisions are already in the enemy's advanced work about three-quarters of a mile from Corinth, which is in flames. The enemy has fallen back on the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. " H. W. HALLECK, Major-General. "Hon. E. M. Stanton." 1862. " Our advanced guard is at Corinth. " Near Corinth , M a y 30, " Conflicting accounts a s to the enemy s move ments. He is believed to be in strong force on our left flank some four or five miles south of Corinth, near the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. " H. W. HALLECK, Major-General. " Hon. E. M. Stanton." "Near Corinth, May 30, 1862. "General Pope's advance, the 39th Ohio Regi ment, occupied Corinth at 40 minutes past six this morning, and raised our flag on the Court House. " The enemy evacuated the place last night, re treating down the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. The telegraph line is occupied with military business, but expect to obt ain p articulars soon," u E a r s T , I N O Ia N y . 30. ; THE D , E , H TA ta l ie L e S k,s o H F ea T a H ci "During all of last night the mo • ving of cars and suppressed whistles sounding betokened some move ment going on, but, it not being any extraordinary occurrence, was not Considered of an extraordinary nature. " About five o'clock this morning several explo sions were distinctly heard. Immediately after skirmishers were thrown out, and a general advance took place. " A very large amount of railroad iron was un touched. There being some 12 or 15 tracks of railroad from th e d e p o t to the entrenchments, with side tracks and switches, they were unable to move troops with great rapidity. " From all information gleaned from prisoners, it is thought the evacuation commenced at sundown of last night, the enemy retreating in three diffe rent directions—east, west, and south. " Beauregard stated to the citizens that he in tended evacuating, and throwing himself on both our flanks. At this hour Corinth is held by our outposts, and cavalry is searching for the enemy. That sent by Gen. Pope came upon and dispersed the enemy eight miles below Corinth, on the Mheo bile and Ohio Railroad, in the act of burning t bridge, and captured 40 prisoners. " The enemy's rear guard destroyed the depot, a few bales of cotton, and a church, and intended de• stroying the entire village, but the citizens saved sonic 50 houses. They also broke open stores and burnt the contents. " A large cavalry force under Colonel Elliot, sent out on Wednesday morning by circuitous _ , rtz 0,,..--:,,,,,... -,\ ) . " 1 -4,lf.r k !

It is ascertained that Van Dora had a band of Indians under him. Col.

The woods are full of stragglers, who are being brought in as fast as possible,. Probably between 2,000 and 3,000, in cluding almost the entire 13th Louisiang, are in our lines now. Many of them arc deserters, end the balance have been captured since the evacuotion. A United States military telegraph was completed. to this point to-night." The New York Herald says : " Okolona, to which place Beauregard is reported to have gone, Mobile and is a small statio n on he Ohio Railroad, 67 miles south of Coriflth and 261 miles north of Mobile. About 10 miles south of Okolona, at West Point , the Nashville and Jackson Railroad leaves the line of the Mobile and Ohio road, and runs south-westerly t Canton, Miss., a few m il e s north of Jackson. Tho only advantage to be obtained by the occup4tion of this position is, that there are two roads leOding southward from it—one to Mobile and the other to Jackson. There the Tombigbee river and swamp flanks the position upon the east, making it neces sary for General Halleck to march down from the north via Corinth. At all events the rebels thug , gain time, and unless they are, as General Halleck supposes, ' in force upon his flank,' no news of great interest need be looked for from this quarter for some time." ADVANCE OF GENERAL BANKS FROM HARPER'S FERRY. " " A dispatch received: tingtWa7 May 31. Department states that a brigade of Federal troops, preceded by four companies of the Rhode Island cavalry, under Major Nelson, entered Front Royal yesterday morn-. ing, and drove out the enemy, consisting of thf) Bth Louisiana, four companies of the 12th Georgiaj and a body of cavalry. The Federal loss is S killed, 5 wounded, and 1 missing, all from the Rhode Island Cavalry. We captured 6 officers and 151 privates, besides a large amount of transport, including two engines and 11 railroad cars. Our advance was so rapid that the enemy was surprised, and was, therefore, not able to burn the bridges across the Shenandoah. "A despatch from General Banks to the Secre tary of War states that the sth New York Cavalry, Colonel Deforest commanding, entered Martinsburg this morning, and passed several miles beyond, where they encountered the enemy' muk s cavalry, cap tured several prisoners , a waggon, sets, and ammunition, and an American flag. Col. Deforest reports that Colonel Kenly is at Winchester wounded." REPORTED EVACUATION OF PETERS- BURG. "Norfolk, May 30. " Two fugitives arrived here yesterday from Richmond. They report an army of 200,000 men in the vicinity, among whom, both officers and men, the dissatisfaction is very general. They were living on half rations of bacon and hard bread. The fugitives state that Jeff Davis had been beard to say that he would make the streets of the city run with blood before surrendering. " A report comes in from our scouts, who are ad vanced some miles beyond Suffolk, that the city of Petersburg is to be, or has been evacuated by the rebels. The Seabord and Roanoke Railroad, it has been ascertained, is in good order as far as the Blackwater river. " Col. Hawkins, of the 9th New York Regiment, with 20 men, arrived here in the Port Royal last night, having left Roanoke Island yesterday morn ing and passed up by way of Currituck Sound, and thence by canal to Elizabeth River. Thus the in land route is opened, by which Gen. Burnside's department may communicate with the capital without the risk of the passage outside of Hatteras. Col.
