New YORK, July l.
Latest adviees from Mcclellan at Wash
ington yesterday noon were up to o'clock
Saturday noon. Up to that time he had
successfully eorried cut the plan he point
ed out some time ago, which plan was to
swing his right wing toward the rear
which included all the forces north of and
half 7fay- between Bottom Bridge and
New Bridge, and at the same time advance
his left wing towards James river, opening
communication with the gun boats.
The attack of the enemy last Thursday
in great force neeessitated this strategic
movement, and in changing his base of
course White House Landing was aban-
doned.
All sick and wounded, ordnance, COM
missary stores, troops and property were
then embarked under the superintendent
of Gen. Casey, and on Monday were all at
Turkey Island, on James river, ight miles
below Fort Darling and fifteen below Rich
mond.
After an interruption of communication
between Gen. Mcclellan and Washington
for forty-eight hours, his left wing touched
James River yesterday, near Turkey
Island Bridge. He Immediately opened
communication with Com. Rogers, of the
Potomac fotilla, and through him with
Washington. The result may be that the
steam transports may relieve her soldiers
of the fatigue Of marching on Richmond,
| by landing them near the rebel Capital,
after the gunboats have cleared away the
distractions.
Our army is now extricated from the
malarious swaTnps of the Chickahominy
on the high ground of James River

nothing new from before Richmond.
The Heralds correspondent, Of the 26th
ult., states that HoOkers Division was or
dered to have days rations in their
havresacks, and be in line of battle at
seven o'clock on Wednesday. A move
was made at eight o'clock by the First
Mass, Col. OOwden, as skirmishers across
an open field, driving in the rebels, when
the First was reinforced by the remainder
of Growers Brigade, and the Excelsior and
Jersey Brigades driving the enemy out OF

On came the rebels with yell, but the
firm front of our boys alarmed them, and
they broke, retreatiIlg in great disorder

NEW AOHk, July L.
The Nova Scotia arrived this morning
with dates up to the 22d ult. The Europa
arrived out on the 21st.
The Times publishes letter from its
New York correspondent, in which he says
if England and France intends stepping in
at the last moment, now is the time to urge
submission on the part Of the South, and
magnanimity on the North; for if Beaure-
regard and other leaders succeed in re-
treating to Texas there is not the least hope
for their cause. Their dream of indepen-
dence has vanished, and they can do moth
ing further to realize it except by hopeless
guerrilla warfare.
The Morning Herald gives different
views. 1t represents the cOnfederates as
being very strong, but doubtful if they will
risk another engagement at Richmond. II
is assured that the Federal loss at Fair Oaks
was IS, 600.
The Army and Navy Gazette argues that
the confederates are giving way before the
steady and scientifically applied superior
resources of the North. It thinks, how
ever, that Federal military success is nc
guarantee for the restoration Of the Union

ernment to seize favorable opportunity,
In the House of Commons, Mr.. Lindsay,
in postponing till July llth his motion
relative to British relations with America,
expressed the hope that Government
would in the meantime see the necessity

Earl Russell defended the course Of Eng

Earl Russell in response to Lord
Brougham, promised to produce the CORES
pondence relative to the Emily 81. Pierre.
The subject being now closed, the opinion
of law officers was that there was no power
in England to surrender vessels. At first
it was supposed there was no precedent
but one had been found in which under
similar circumstances England failed to
obtain redress from America, during Ad-
ams's Presidency.

city, Of taxation-results which the tax
gatherers will soon enforce. The details
sound very dreadful at first, but are much
less onerous on individuals than would be
supposed. And were they far more Oner-
GUS than they arc, the load would be cheer
fully borne by a people who incurred it in
righteous and patriotic cause. OF course
the tax-gatherer will never become hcre the
object of popular ovations, expressive Of
lcyc and affection. That is too much to
expect of weak human nature; but we arc
convinced that the duty of receiving him
with courtesy and cash will ever be ac-
knowledged and fulfilled in the EmpiEe

selves with the reflection that they are on
" getting the bitter with the sweet. -
Nay, more, if honest and quiet foreign cit
liens find themselves the object Of suspi.
cion to, and even their honest acts subjects
ofinyestigation by, the authorities Of the
I United States, TO their Inconvenience, they
will, upon reflection, blame only the over
rapacious and greedy of their own fellow
citizens, who have, by their aid to rebel
\ lion, brought distrust and suspicion over
all.
Wishing to treat you, gentlemen, with
every respect, have set forth at length
some Of the reasons which have prompted
my action. There is one phrase in your
letter which do not understand and can
not permit TO pass without calling atten-
ton to it. You say the undersigned are
disposed to waive all past proceedings,
&C., sc.
What proceedings have you, or either
Of you, to "waiye,n if you do feel disposed
so to do ? What right have you in the
matter? What authority is vested in you
by the laws Of nations or Of this country,
which gives you the power to use such lam
guage to the representative of the United
States in a quasi official communication
Commercial agents merely, of subordi-
nate class, consuls have no power to waive
or conduct any proceedings past or pres
ent Of the Government under whose pro-
lection they are permitted to reside so long
as they behave well. If l have committed
any wrong TO Mr.. Covas, you have no pow
er to ''waive' or pardon the penalty or
prevent his having redress If he has COM
mitted any wrong to the United States
you have stillless power to shield him from
punishment.
l take leave TO suggest, as q possible ex-
PLANTATION Of this sentence, that you have
been so long dealing with a rebel Confed-
Grafton, which has been supplicating you
to make such representation to the Gov
ernment whose subjects they arc, as would
induce your sovereigns to aid in its trait
orOus designs, that you have become rusty
in the language proper to be used N rePre-
senting the claims Of your fellow citizens
to the considerations of great and power
full Government, entitled to equal respect
with your own.
In order to prevent all misconception
and that, for the future, you gentlemen
may know eXaeely the position upon which
l act in regard to foreigners resident here,
permit me to explain to you that | think
foreigner resident here has not one right
more than an American citizen, but at least
one right less, that of meddling or inter-
fering, by discussion, vote or otherwise
with the affairs Of the Government

AAAA AEltAE0Nh from hHlr1ll ore
On Monday morning we published dis
patch from C. c. Fulton, of Baltimore, say
ing that he was writing a full report of
the transactions at Richmond, and would
forward it if we desired. But we found it
impossible to obtain the details on Sunday
night or Monday In the New York ma
pers of Monday morning we find the rea-
son Of this. In addition to the dispatch
received here is the following later dis
patch:
SECOND DISPATCH.
BALTIMORE, June 29-1l Pm.
The Secretary of War decides that moth
ing can be telegraphed relative to affairs
on the Peninsula
Have tried our best to get it of.
c. c. FULTON,
Agent Associated Press.
We fail to see the benefit of the policy
that would exclude from the public any
information regarding what had already
transpired, especially when the following
dispatch had been sent from the War De-
partment on Sunday afternoon:
WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, !
June 29-2 o'clock P. N. 7
As soon as the Department can obtain
exact information Of the state of affairs in
front of Richmond, it viii be impaired to
the public, whether good or bad.
To say that the suppression was to pre-
vent information reaching the enemy, is
sheer nonsense. If there was any lighting
they knew it as well as we, and whether
we we're whipped or victorious, it would
notneed a Northern journal to inform them
Of the fact. So long as thousands Of North
ern families are awaiting with the most
intense anxiety to learn of the fate of their
friends in the army of the Potomac, it is
cruelty to keep back the truth. That was
tried sufficiently, one would think, at Balls
Bluff.
