GOV. Berry Reinaugurnted.

CONCORD, n. H., June 5.-Nathaniel S.
Berry was reinaugurated governor of New
Hampshire, to-day, in presence of both
branches of the legislature and large con-
course Of citizens. His message represents
materially the interests of the state as in a
iourishing condition. Abiding to national
affairs, the governor says there can be but
one result of the struggle in which we are en-
gaged-submission to the first principles of
the government inaugurated and established
by our fathers. The base rebellious spirit
which designed to reverse the free and hui
name policy of our father must fail. The fear
full lesson we have had in the conflict with
slavery, its disasters to all its promoters, and
its weakness in its death struggle with free
dom, all portend change in the estimation
of which this great evil will be hereafter held,
and they toretell in legible characters, written
in view of all the nations, that its days are
numbered
For these reasons the governor reioices in
the late message Of president Lincoln, and in
the abolition of slavery in the district of Co.
-lumbia and its prohibition in the territories
But he afirms the principle that each state
submitting to the provisions of the constitu-
ton should control its own local institutions.
But such submission should be regarded as a
prerequisite for the enjoyment of the benefits
of that instrument.

LATEST FROM MocLELLAN,s ARMY

McCLELLANs HEADQUARTERS, Tuesday
Evening, June 3.-The following address was
read to the army this evening at dress parade,
and was received with an outburst of vocifer-
Gus cheering from every regiment
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoroMAc,
CAMP NEAR New BRIDGE, VA, June 3,
l862.-SoIdiers Of the Army Of the Potomac:
l have fulfilled at least part of my promise
to you. You are now face to face with the
rebels, who are held at bay in front of their
capital. The final and decisive battle is at
hand Unless you belle your past history,
the result cannot be for moment doubtful.
If the troops who labored so faithfully and
fought so calamity at Yorktown, and who so
bravely won, the hard fights at Williamsburg,
West Point, Hanover Court House, and Fair
Oaks, now prove worthy of their antecedents,
the victory is ours. The events of every day
prove your superiority; wherever you have
met the enemy, you have beaten him, wher-
ever you have used the bayonet, he has given
way in panic and disorder. l ask of you
now one last browning effort. The enemy
has staked his all on the issue of coming bat
tie. Let us meet him and crush him here in
the very centre Of the rebellion.
Soldiers, will be with you in this battle
and share its dangers with you. Our conf
dence in each other is now founded on the
past. LEU us SlIlk6 JIit DlON WHICH Is u IT,
store peace and union to this distracted land
Upon your valor, discipline, and mutual con-
idence, the result depends.
TSignedl G. B MCCLELLAN,
Major General, commanding.
A heavy shower that set in about dark had
the effect of again raising the water in the
Chickahominy. Gen. Brney of Philadel-
phia, was relieved of his command on the
battlefield, by Gen. Heintzelman, he having
failed to bring his brigade INTO action when
ordered, on Saturday.
Reconnaissance made to-day, show no ma
terial change in the enemy's position. Fur
Their information shows that our troops on
Saturday and Sunday engaged six divisions,
instead of four, making force of 5000 reb-
els.
GEN. McCLELLAN's HEADQUARTERS, Thurs
day Evening, June 5.-The severe storm
which set in Tuesday afternoon lasted during
the whole of yesterday. The water in the
height The railroad trains from White
House to the late battle field were detained
several hours, and the telegraph line was
down in many places.
A contraband who left Richmond Sunday
night states that all the carts, furniture, cars,
omnibuses and carriages to be found were
impressed into the service for the carrying of
the dead and wounded from the battlefield, and
that the Spottswood and Exchange hotels, to-
gether with number of public and private
buildings have been turned into hospitals.
All the information shows that the enemy suf-
fered terribly.
The rebels opened with artillery this morn
ing, from five different points, opposite New
Bridge, with view of preventing its recon-
structon. Three of our batteries opened on
them, causing them to retreat, after hot fire
of two hours. Our loss was one killed and

FIELD OF BATTLE, y o'clock, June l.
Hon. E. N, Stanton, Secretary of Var We
have had desperate battle, in which the
corps of Summer, Heintzelman, and Keyes
have been engaged against greatly superior
numbers. Yesterday, at one o'clock, the en-
envy, taking advantage of a terrible storm
which had flooded the valley of the Chicka-
hominy, attacked our troops on the right bank
of the river. Casey's division, which was the
first line, gave way unaccountably and dis
creditably. This caused temporary confu-
sion, during which some guns and baggage
were lost But Heintzelman and Kearney
most CALAMITY brought up their troops,
which checked the enemy. At the same time
however, Gen. Sumner succeeded by great
exertions in bringing across Sedgwick's and
Richardson's divisions, who drove back the
enemy at the point of the bayonet, covering
the ground with his dead. This morning the
enemy attempted to renew the conflict, but
was everywhere repulsed. We have taken
many prisoners, among whom are Gen. Petit
grew and Col Long. Our loss is heavy, but
that of the enemy must be enormous. With
the exception of Casey's division, our men
behaved splendidly. Several fine bayonet
charges have been made. The I'd Excelsior
made two to-day.
