which it is known had no effect TO divert the FIRE
from the Essex This vessel attempted to run
into the Arkansas and jam her against the leyee,
but the latter swung round. The Essex grazed
her side as she passed, and gave the rebel craft
her three 1l-inch bow guns. Finding herslf un-
supported, che dropped down the river. The
Queen coming to her aid, ran into the Arkan-
sas, making her tremble from stem to stern =
Recovering herself, the Queen ran on again SO
forcibly as to strain her own works badly Both
of them returned up tho river. 5tt =, -..
During the engagement, the Essex received
several shots, and had one killed and two
wounded. The Queen was also shot through

Rebel HeInForcements for Richmond
..Statement OF n Released Prisoner.
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoroMAol
InIu %


DR.. Williams, who has been prisoner at
Salisbury, North Carolina, for several months,
and arrived here on Saturday, having been un-
conditionally released, states that for ten days
after the battles In front OF Richmond one thou
sand rebel troops passed through that town daily
on the way to Richmond, and more were on their
way. The Doctors window overlooked the rail-
road depot, aud gave him good opportunity to
ascertain what WAS going on there The troops
came from James Island and Eastern Georgia.
Among other facts the Doctor learned that
eleven thousand troops were at Charlottsburg,
waiting transportation to Richmond. That
thirty thousand conscripts had been raised in
each of the States of Tennessee and Georgia
since the 9th OF July, and q proportionate num-
ber in the other extreme Southern States. He
heard the Adjutant of Colonel Godwins, who
commands the post of Salisbury, who had just
come from Richmond, state that the Adlutant
OF Gen. Hill told him that the rebels had one
hundred and seventy-three thousand troops en-.
gagged in the battle of seven days.
He was accompanied by DR.. Stone, who was
taken prisoner at Bull Run, and who corrobor-
ates the statement 30 far as relates to the move
ments Of troops. On their way to Richmond
they saw long trains Of empty cars on their way
South.
If their statements are true, and there is
every reason to believe they are, II shows the
rebels are stalking their all 10 this State, by
concentrating within its borders an overwhelm-
ing force.
The bOats to-day brought down four hundred
and ninety-four wounded from Richmond, leav-
Ing about seven hundred yet to come.
