PRoD1aIoUs LY1Na.-A despatch
from Gen. Mcclellan to the War De-
partment, from Barclay Bar, July 2,
$50 p. m, states "that he had sue
ceeded in getting his army to that place,
on the banks of James River, and had
lost but one gun, which was abandoned
because it was broken down that an
hour and half before his rear wagon
train was within mile of camp, only
one wagon having been abandoned
that he had a severe battle the day be-
fore; that he beat the enemy badly,
the men fighting even better than before;
that the men were in good spirits, and
that reinforcements had arrived from
Washington" He fails to give the
Confederates credit for assisting him
Gin getting his army to that place.

Damage to the Enemy's Transports.

The Washington Artlllery at Work.
Damage to the Enemy's Transports.
On Monday and Tuesday last, the
First Company Washington Artillery,
of New Orleans, Capt. Squires, togeth.
er with two squadrons of Stuart's Cav
airy, madea detour of McClellan's po'
sition, at Westover, and proceeded down
James River toward Bachelors Point,
stopping at all the intermediate avaiia-
bic points, and inficting serious dam
age to the enemy's transports. The
artillery and cavalry were under the
general control of Col. Ftzhugh Lee,
but the artillery details were under the
direction of Captain Squires. AT Will
cox's Wharf, or Swynard's Reach, they
gave plunging fire into the steam
transport, doing her SO much injury that
she had to be towed off by q gun-boat
which came to her relief. A Yankee
deserter states that from eighty to one
hundred menapn board this transport
were killed and wounded.
= +
For hours they wrathtully expended
their shells, but with no other result
than raising some dust and telling some
trees. After a hot time of it in march
ing and firing, the Confederates took a
position still farther down the river to-
wards Bachelors Point, where they a.
wait the floating commissary stores
Thus in the rear and to the right of
Nc Clellan for three days, they have
been giving him a troublesome time
both on land and water, for the cavalry
were equally active harrassing him at
the various points they held on the river
road, near Westover.
About seven transports have thus
far been disabled, much of their cargo
lost and the enemy terrified. ''Nobody
hurt" on our side.-Richmond Wing,
9th instant. - -.
