jackson trammelled the freedom of th2

But this is not all, not only did jackson
when exercising by delegation the execu-

violate those three fundamental do@.aas OF
Mr. Ryan's address ,but he and his friends

npClrIlnn,s OperatIons.

Very few who have read the telegraphic
reports Of the last week, regarding the OPP.
srntions before, Richmond have any clear
idea as to what have been done or what
object has been sought to be accomplished.
Il should be remembered that before the re-
cent battles Mcclellan presented a front Of
between twenty and thirty miles in extent,
from 3 point between the ChiekahOminy
and the James river on the left, and Han
over on the right the latter point being
nearly north from Richmond. He felt the
necessity Of efFecting a greater cOnoentra-
ton Of his troops, and therefore proposed
TO abandon White House, West Point, and
ether points upon the right of his line, and
fall back with his right wing toward the
James, removing the stores heretofore kept
upon the York river to the James. Either
knowing or anticipating such move, a
determined attack was made by the rebels
to force his line between Gen. stOneman,
, who occupied the extreme right, and Gen.
Z Porter, who was next to stoneman. The
latter retrested to West Point and thence
BY the riYer toward Fortress Monroe. The
right wing, under Gen. Porter fell back
Sighting CALAMITY, IS the history of the bat
tles show. ne whole Of the forces success
fully crossed the ChickabOminy, and the
rebels then attacked the leh wing. Nc
elellan had, however, opened eOmmunica-
sion with the gunbOats in James river, and
they assisted in the repulse Of the
rebels on our left wing So far as
known, there is but one obstruction on the
river between the present position Of the
gunboats and Riehmond-at Fort Darling,
6 eisht miles below the city. Large numbers
Of reinforeements have arrived on the
james river in ntransports, and the prospect
is favorable.
This brief view Of the situation viii rem
dor still more clear the accounts Of the
battles which we publish elsewhere.
P. s. Later dispatches state that the
rebels have retreated, and lost large num-
bsr Of prisoners and guns. This was in a
battle on Thursday, two days later than
any sighting had been previously reported.
