" Inside of the fortifications and along the Will-

have buried torpedoes and percussion shells, which
are occasionally exploding and injuring persons.
" Gen. Joseph Johnston's baggage has just been
captured.
"D. B. Lathrop, telegraph operator, has been
mortally wounded by the explosion of a torpedo.
"Another torpedo, attached to a 13-inch shell,
has just been discovered in the telegraph office.
"Healquarters, near Williamsburg,
May 4, Evening. _ _

" The advance of the forces under command of
Gen. Stoneman, with the view of ascertaining the
position of the enemy, reachod this place, 21 miles
from Williamsburg, about two o'clock this after-
noon, on the road from Yorktown.

" The country in most instances was laid desolate,
and but few of the houses are occupied. _

" On emerging from a cover of woods we came in
view of Williamsburg and the rebel outworks. At
the time no guns were visible on the enemy's works,
but a regiment of cavalry could be seen about a
mile off approaching. _ _

" Capt. Gibbon's reserve battery was then ordered

to the front to open on the enemy's approaching
cavalry, while a part of the 6th Cavalry were em-
ployed as skirmishers to the right and left. TEe
fire from the battery was very effective on the
enemy's cavalry, but did not change their course.
" About 200 yards to the right of Gibbon's bat-

tery was an earthwork, which had all the appear-
ance of being deserted, when all of a sudden our
troops were opened upon by a deadly fire

from artillery posted behind the works. At the
same time the rebel cavalry continued ad-
vancing, till they were checked by a charge made
by a portion of the Ist and 6th Cavalry, which was
done well. In more instances than one it was a
hand-to-hand encounter with the enemy ; but,
strange to say, none of our men were made priso-
ners, while we captured 2t of the enemy, among
whom is Captain Frank Lee, of the 3d Florida
Infantry.

" The rebel cavalry was forced by our men to
abandon their position, but the want of infantry
prevented our men from advancing on the enemy's
works. It being evident that it was useless to
attempt further operations the troops fell back about
200 yards to await the arrival of infantry.
" General Hancock's brigade soon after arrived,
but it was deemed advigsble to defer further opera-
tions till to-morrow. We have information that
enemy are still on the retreat beyond Williams-
burg. The rear-guard of the enemy is very strong,
as was shown to-day. _ _

" Head-quarters of the Army, near
Williamsburg, May 5, a.m._ _

It commenced raining about two o'clock this
morning, and has continued heavily up to this time.
There is no news from Williamsburg, as it is yet too
early in the morning to hear. We will occupy
Williamsburg early this morning. From there
our course will depend upon that taken by the
enemy.

"Washington, May 6.

" Official despatches received here indicate that
the enemy are in large force, and strongly en-
trenched near Williamsburg, and that they intend to
dispute the further passage of our army. There had
been brisk fighting, in which General Hancock has
taken two redoubts, and repulsed Early's rebel
brigade by a brilliant bayonet charge.
" In this engagement Gen. Hancock's forces are
said to have killed two rebel colonels, two lieutenant
colonels, and captured one colonel and 150 prisoners.
General M'Clellan highly compliments General
Hancock's conduct.

" At the time of the sending of the dispatches our
loss was not known, but it was supposed to be con-
siderable in proportion to the extent of the engage-
ment, as the fighting was very severe.
" Advance near Williamsburg, Monday Evening,
May 5.
" To the Associated Press.

" When my dispatch was sent last evening the
indications were that our troops would occupy
WiliiamsburA without much opposition. The first
indication of the enemy's rearguard being rein-
forced was the fact of their pressing on our lines
about eight o'clock in the morning, showing a de-
termination to resist our advance. Sufficient rein
forcements had arrived during the night to enable
our generals to act either on the defensive or
offensive.

" About 8 o'clock the enemy opened on our troops
posted on the left, composed of General Hooker's
division, and other troops of General He n tzelmann's
division. The action in this vicinity was very heavy
at times. The loss in killed and wounded is not
known, but supposed to be considerable on both
sides. The enemy was repulsed at all points. Gen.
Peet's brigade, stationed to the right of General
Hooker's, soon after became engaged. Here the
firing was very heavy for about two hours, during
which they handsomely repulsed the enemy in mak-
ing a charge.
" Our loss here was about 30 killed and 75
wounded. A brilliant victory was achieved about
five o'clock in the afternoon by W
General Hancock's
brigade, assisted by Kennedy's and heeler's
batteries. They had been ordered to the right
if possible, to turn
to feel the enemy, and,
their left wing. Here they were met by General
Early's brigade, with a squadron of cavalry, who
advanced in line of battle. Our troops, who were
quickly prepared to receive them, opened a heavy
fire on them, and the enemy advanced steadily to
within 200 yards, when Gen. Hancock ordered a
charge with the bayonet, which was executed with
the greatest courage. The enemy's line broke, they
became panic stricken and fled, leaving- their dead
and wounded behind.
The rebels left upwards of 80 dead and 40
wounded. We also took nearly 200 of them pri-
soners. AMC!) g the killed and wounded were the
colonel and lieut.-colonel of the sth North Carolina
Regiment, Our loss was 17 killed and about 40
wounded. Among the enemy's dead were the
bodij_s of lieut.-colonel and major of the 24th Vir.

" The conduct of Gen. ti-lincock and his brigade
has excited universal admiration. A standard of

colours belonging to the cavalry engaged was cap-
tured, and is now on its way to Washington. When
the news of Gen. Hancock's success became known
a shout went up from tens of thousands of Union
throat..s that made the country resound for miles
around. Gen. Hancock remained during the night

6 o'clock, and immediately rode to the front, where
his presence was most joyfully hailed. He ;mine_
diately assumed the command in person. The rain
has poured in torrents all day. The troops suffer
much from exposure, but none complain.
" From information received from the prisoners
taken, the enemy will make a decisive stand at
Williamsburg, reinforcements having been arriving
all day, and General J. E. Johnstone is in command.
" Jeff. Davis was at Richmond at last accounts.
" The enemy's works are very formidable, and
extend across the peninsula, this side of Williams-

burg.
"Tuesday morning, May 6.—This is a beautiful
May morning. The operations of to-day are not
known. The whole army is in good spirits."
The following was read to the House of Repre-
sentatives on the 6th inst.:—

" Bivouac in front of Williamsburg,
May 5, 1862, Ten o'clock p.m.
" After arranging for movements up York River,
I was urgently sent for here. I find General Joe
Johnston in front of :me in strong force, probably
greater a good deal than my own.
" General Hancock has taken two redoubts, and
renujsed Early's rebel brigade by a real pliarge with
the bayonet, taking one corou.l ito
and killing, at least, two colonels and many pri-
vates. His conduct was brilliant in the extreme.
" I do not know our exact loss, but fear that
General Hooker has lost considerably on our left.

" I learn from the prisoners taken that the rebels
intend disputing every step to Richmond.
"I shall run the risk of at least holding them in
check here, while I resume the original plan.
•' My entire force is, doubtless, considerably in-
ferior to that of the rebels, who will fight well; but
I will do all I can with the force at my disposal.
" G. B. M'CLELLAN, Major-General
Commanding.
Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War."

The IVeto York Herald of the '7th says :

" A dispatch from Fredericksburg gives a denial
to the stock-jobbing reports that circulated through
Wall-street yesterday, to the effect that General
M'Dowell was in Richmond. By that telegram it
would appear that his troops are now about for the
first time to take military possession of the former
city, and consequently have not yet moved very far
in advance of that position. The flag of the Union
now permanently waves once more over the public
buildings of Fredericksburg. Gen. Steele reports
that there are but few rebels in that part of Arkansas
whore he now is, and gives hopes of their speedy
capture. The rebel marauder, Morgan, with a force
of about 1,000 cavalry, attacked a small body of
Union troops at Pulaski, Tennessee, on Friday
last, and after a fight of two hours and a half,
during which the rebels lost 6 killed and 2 wounded,
and our troops lost 2 killed, 3 wounded, and 1 mis-
sing, the whole force were taken prisoners. The
prisoners were released on parole, and are now in
Nashville. The rebels outnumbered our forces four
to one.

" On Monday morning General Dumont, who had
sent a strong party of cavalry in pursuit, found and
attacked the united rebel cavalry under Morgan
and Wood, at Lebanon, and utterly routed them
after killing a great number, capturing 150 prisoners
and nearly all their horses and arms. The fight
lasted an hour and a half, and the rebels fled, closely
pursued by General Dumont.
" A. report is current in Chicago that Corinth has
been evacuated by the rebels, and that our forces
are in possession of the place. One report states
that General Pope's army occupied the rebel works
on Sunday last.
" Jeff Thompson is said to be prowling about in
Western KentugAzy, ,r;th 1,410 mniint,cl followers,
committing depredations and alarming the quiet
country people for their personal safety. He is re-
ported to have met a company of the Nebraska
Cavalry, and scattered them in all directions.
" The news from Port Royal is to the 3d inst.
The United States gunboat Hale attacked and cap-
tured the rebel battery at the junction of the Dahoo
and Pow Pow rivers. The rebels fled as soon as
the gunboats came within 300 yards.
" The Merrimac again made her appearance on
the 4th inst., and remained out till four o'clock in
the afternoon, when she again disappeared behind
Sewell's Point. It appeared plainly that her ob-
ject was to intimidate rather than to fight, It was
supposed the evacuation of Yorktown was the cause
of her retreat, her commander not deeming it safe
to keep out longer, now the fight had already
begun.
" The news from the South•west, via Memphis,
confirms the report of the capture of Baton Rouge,
and the passage of the Union gunboats up the river.
General Butler's forces had occupied New Orleans,
and an immense amount of cotton had been dis-
covered and seized. The Unionists had held a
meeting in that city, which was attended by large
numbers of citizens, who indulged in the most en-
thusiastic expressions of joy at the arrival of the
Union troops.

"The Norfolk Day Book of May 3 reports that

the rebel Forts Jackson and St. Philip had fallen,
and that the rebel General Duncan was in New
Orleans on parole.
" The Petersburg Express 'bewails the disheart-
ening run of luck beginning with the defeat of Zol-
licoffer,' but concludes with the assurance that out
of the reach of the gunboats the Southern soldiers
will whip their enemies.'"

MEXICO.

The foll Owing letter appears in the New York

Herald :--

" Havannah, April 29, 1862.
" Affairs in Mexico have assumed a new shape,
though to some not an unexpected one. Those
whose eyes are blinded by an unreasonable hatred
of everything Spanish could see nothing but
the private ambition of General Prim, whilst
the private ambition of other parties was silently at
work for its own accomplishment. The phantasm
Contrast the languagc.4 and
obscured the reality.
conduct of the French commissioners with those of
Prim at the t;ine the rupture between the;
allies occurred, and no one can fail to see that the
latter has conducted himself like an honourable man
in strict accordance with his duty. The Eco de
Europa gives a lengthy account of the preliminary
meeting held at Orizaba on the 9th, and from it I
collect the following facts. The General (Prim)
demonstrated from clear and patent reasons that the
London Convention did not authorise the attitude
taken by the French, that the allies have no right
to impose on the Mexicans a form of government
displeasing to them; that to attempt to do it in the
manner the French are now trying is not only to
abandon the original idea of the coalition, but to
break the agreement with the government of the
republic, and that in order to comply religiously
with what was stipulated between the three powers,
and what was agreed on here between their repre-
sentatives and the Mexican Government, it is neces-
sary not only to abide by the noble purposes for
which the coalition was formed, but to refrain from
sheltering those natives of the country who, under
foreign protection, come to conspire against the
existing order of things.
" All was in vain. The representatives of France
declared, in clear and explicit terms, that they were
resolved to continue no longer treating with the
present Government of the republic, and that, far
from withdrawing their protection from those Mexi-
cans to whom it had been offered, they would con-
tinue to extend it to them and all individuals de-
serving the confidence of the Emperor.
"Then this Count de Rene declared that as this
was a breach of the treaty, and equivalent to a
declaration of war on Mexico on the part of the
French, he was resolved to withdraw from the
country with the forces under his orders, since he
neither wanted to oppose the resolution of the
French by arms nor be a passive spectator of an
inexcusable war between them and the Mexicans.
"At the close of the conference couriers were
sent to the capital with despatches informing the
Mexican Government of the result, and General
Prim ordered his principal officers to assemble next
mulling at his quarters. In the speech which he
addressed to them he recapitulated the history of
the allied coalition, from the commencement down
to the meeting of the previous day, and his re-
marks throughout were marked with sound sense.
liis allusion to the French is worth producing ver-
batim I leave them to the responsibility of this
act, upon. which will soon fall the verdict of opinion
in America and in Europe, but withal, 1 wish them
no harm ; no, they arc brave and accomplished sol-
diers; they deserve that victory should ever

arms. I wish them no harm, but on this
occasion
depart from the path wherein we are
proceeding, and from which we cannot deviate
without being wanting in honour. History will
judge between them and us.'
" You have now the whole affairs in a nutshell.
The French are going to put Maximilian on the
throne, In the despatch sent by them to the capi-
tal on the 9th, they say—, The undersigned are
sorry to learn that since the day on which agree-
ments were concluded at Soledad new vexations
have been practised on their countrymen. under
the eyes of the undersigned violent measures have
been adopted to stifle the expression of the wishes
of the country, and of true public opinion.
"These loose charges form the ground of excuse
for breaking the agreement with the English and
Spaniards, and taking upon themselves solely the
settlement of Mexico.
