fSpecisi Dispatches TO Chicago Trinune.J
WAsur:G1oS, July s, :S5a,
The steamer Juuiata was fired OF by the
rttcl battery Of sK-pouaders yesterday,
While going up to McC Clellan's army, and two
men were killed and six wounded. There are
no fears Of the rebels being able to plart per f
u2anent batteries on the bank Of the river,
but gunboats will be unable wholly to sup
press this guerrilla mode Of moving batteries.
Gov. Morton's private secretary returned !
from McClellan's army today. The men are |
anxiously awaiting reinforccmcnts, ;but are |
Ill perfectly satisfied Of being able to hold |
their position. The rebels arc at present de-
t:ant and close to our lines.
Returns today show over 10, 600 in the hos
z;itals in and around Washinton City.
The Richmond Dispatch Of July 9Th in an
article on the late engagements, says: from
! the most careful and reliable estimates We
can procure from officers aud other authoFl-
lies, it appears our (rebeD loss in Killed alone
| was about 0,00o.'
! Nothing is said about the wounded or
missing.
It also saws that Richmond is so full cf their
own wounded that they are compelled to Keep
the Union wounded in fields outside the city,
where they arc cared for as well as clrcum
stances will permit.
The E;c:luond Examiner Of July 4ih: says,
the rebel killed, wounded and missing amount
10 at least LOCO.
Confederate stock rose from o3 to 81 after
The late battle. It thinks tnat the
ca,itulation of McClcllan's army is proba-
l1e, and gives letter from shdel'
saying he expects Immediate recognition o.
, | tonfcdcracy by Napoleon.
