BATTLE NEAR CITY

Retreat Of the Federal

From Fort Monroe.

AVDA SSV"A~s1 w -
A guu.boat has just arrived here from
the scene OF action yesterday, ten miles
above City Point.
That division of our army has been
fighting tour days, and has retreated
about II miles.
The fight Of yesterday was most terri
&c, the enemy having two or three to
our one.
The battle commenced with our land
forces, and after about four hours fight.
ing our gun-boats got in range and pour
ed into the rebels a heavy aud incessant
fro. This fire the rebels stood about
two hours and then retire ated.
Our troops have captured, notwith-
standing their Disadvantages, large
number OF artillery pieces, and 1000
prisoners, among whom is the rebel Cen
eral Magruder.
The place where this last action took
place is near Turkey Creek.
The retreat of the enemy last even
ing was with great disorder, and their
loss has been very heavy-greater, it is
thought than ours, still l have nothing
definite in regard to losses.
To the retreat forced upon Gen. Nc
Clellan by the superior numbers OF the
enemy, learn that he had to spike his
siege guns and leave them on the
field, after burning the carriages.
The nature of the ground rendered it
impossible to move them in the retreat,
our sick and wounded were necessarily
left behind. There are Of course,
innumcrable reports and rumors here,
but l send only what appears to be au>

From Memphis.

MEMPHIS, June 80
The Avalanche this morning has an
editorial based on information from well
informed sources in the South, stating
that new programme had been deter,
mined on by Southern leaders, who,
nothing abashed by past discontinue,
are moving themselves for tremendous
effort. They consider that the Terrific.
ny recently given up, has weakened the
North, and correspondiugly strengthen.
ed the South. They expect to hold
Richmond and Virginia, but if they are
forced to yield them, they have no idea
OF giving up, but will fight to the last,
and when they can fight no longer, in
stead OF surrendering, and instead Of
having their property con6scated and
themselves DISTINGUISHED, they will make
a direct proposition to France and Eng
land to become colony or appendage.
If this alternative is forced upon them
they will strive to become subjects OF
Napoleon rather than of England.
The Avalanche gives the above as the
almost certain policy OF the Confederate
leaders, and as DR.. Fowler is known to
be one Of the best informed persons in
the South, considerable credit may be
attached to the plan.
Dispatches from Col. Fitch, dated St.
Charles, Ark, which works be still held,
set forth that Gen. Curtis division is at
Batesvile, on short rations, and with
out provender for his horses and mules,
besides suffering from sickness.
Gen. Hindman IS menacipg him with
large force, and unless comm;ssary
and other stores can reach him soon, his
troops will be rendered incapable of duty
by starvation. A regiment was called
for and transports with provisions and
provender.
Gen. Fitch proposes to give the troops
share of active service, having 10 view
very important movement on the
enemy.
