Arrival Of More Prisoners, -
About fifteen hundred additional Fort DON
elson prisoners arrived in this city yesterday
Sunday morning, by the Illinois Central
Railroad. They comprise the surviving por-
tion Of the Second and Fourth Tennessee and
Fourteenth Mississippi regiments. In general
appearance they are about on par with those
which preceded them. They seemed well sup
piled with baggage, Of course not Of the pat
tern which you usually see at fashionable
hotels, but then capacious, and well adapted
to their present general style. One of the pris-
oners-not Of gigantic stature-bo1e q trunk
on his shoulders Of sufficient capacity to hold
the wardrobe Of female ha5it,w Of fashion,
able watering place. Another bore on his
knapsack an a1istocratic looking chanticleer,
evidently Of the chivalr5 persuasion, albeit
his proud feathers seemed in "the noltluq
mood" Still others carried sauce-pans, tin
pans, tin pals, water pals, wash tubs, and
other Ike articles of domestic warfare, All
seemed weary and sore foot, and we doubt
not the poor pilgrims I'VE can think Of no
other name for them) are right glad, that they
are at last to rest under the 'sb1cssed old flag
never again We hope to take up arms for any
other. Although they arrived at the Central
depot early in the day, and Immediately took
up their march for Camp Douglas, 30 slow
we're their movements, that It was full four
O'Clock P. m. before they reached there. We
were glad to observe that notwithstanding
the streets were lined with citizens along the
entire route, no indignIties, BY word or action,
were offered to the prisoners--the eye OF pity

Direct communication with Gen Mcclellan is
now being opened, however, by the gunboats
up the mouth of the Chickahominy, and will
soon be right in this respect.
BEAUREGARD AND HIS ARMY AT RICHMOND.
The West Point Virginia correspondent Of
the N. Y. Evening Post, under date of the
9th, states that it was reported there that
our pickets were driven in on the afternoon
of the 26th, at White House, and the shin
ping had all been sent to West Point from
White House. A rebel mail captured, states
that Beauregard had arrived at Richmond
with the main portion of his army, and that
10000 men had been sent to reinforce Jack
son, and that the latter would at once attack
the right flank of our army, while Lee would
make desperate attack in front.
GEN M'CLELLANs OBJECT.
The correspondent of the Baltimore Amer
lean thinks the object of Mcclellan was to
abandon the White House and draw in the
right wing across the Chickahominy, which
ne accomplished with little loss in comparison
with the punishment he gave the enemy, and
strengthened his position by contracting his
lines and changing his base of operation to
the James river, where he will have the CO.
operation of the gunboats. If the rebels at
tempt to interrupt his supply vessels by a
dash on the James river, they will meet
prompt punishment from the gunboats, and
SO weaken their forces in front of the city
that it will fall into his hands with but slight
loss.

The fighting, especially on Friday, is said
to have been terrible The rebels had over
whelming forces, and as soon as they met one
repulse, they returned doubly strong. They
came in such dense masses that the shell and
grape poured into them made great gaps in
then lines, which were Immediately filled up,
and they moved forward most determinedly
Their artillery was so poorly served that the
damage to our ranks was light in proportion.
They still moved on, ard exchanged showers
of MIME balls; but when Gen. Porter ordered
bayonet charge, they retreated in double
quick, though he pursued them but short
distance. The enemy again rallied and ap-
preached our lines, when the same terrible
slaughter ensued. This time their artillery
was more effective. On coming to close quar-
tiers they were again repulsed, and driven back
a still greater distance, the twice fought-over
battle ground being literally strewn over with
the dead and dying. Gen. Porter second
time fell back to his position, and waited near
ly an hour for the enemy to renew the assault.
They finally came on in increased numbers,
having been largely reinforced, and were again
received with shell and grape, causing great
chasms in their ranks. A third time they bore
down most determinedly on our lines, and this
conflict was the most Sc, erely contested of the
Whole, but when the bayonet was brought to
bear he fell back, and was pressed toward
Richmond full mile beyond our original
lines. Again, for the foul tn time, Gen. Por
ter fell back to his first position. when an or.
der was received from Gen. Mcclellan to con
tinue his retrograde movement slowly and ir
order. The enemy again pushed forward
boldly, when their advance w was checked by
the entire reserve force. This fresh fore,
held the enemy in check, while the force which
! had previously borne the brunt of the battl
moved back in good order, carrying with then
their wounded and dead.
