A collision occurred ON the Potomac
la.t night of Ragged Point, between the
steamers Peabody and Vest Point, invol-
wing the loss of Is lives. The West Point
was bound to this place from Newport
News with convalescent soldiers Of Gen.
Burnside's army. She sunk in ten min
utes. The Peabody brought the rescued
soldiers and passengers to this point.
There we're 2l4 soldiers, A officers, 5
ladies' and l child on the West Point at
Fort Monroe, and IL men on board, max
ing 247 in all. The collision occurred
on Wednesday evening, at 8 o'clock. The
West Point began sinking fast. The
Peabody, which was partially disabled,
could only render assistance with boats.
There where several vessels in the river,
which rendered all assistance possible,
and by their combined effects 2O3 persons
were rescued. All the crew, except the
fremen, were saved. The boat was
beahed as soon as possible and sunk in
about fathoms. A portion Of the mis-
sing have been saved, Is several small
boats and schooner were seen to pick IN
men. The two Captains have been put il

The Herald's correspondent, on board

count OF the attempt to captnre the ram

batteries. When within u few rods Of the
ram, the latter's bow line Was lei loose,
and she"swung round with the tide, thus
partially eyading the blow from the Essex,
which grazed her side, causing the Essex

New York, Aug Is.

The following dispatch appears III the
Charleston Courier OF August list
Richmond, July 80. = The opinion
gains ground here that Gen. Mcclellan
is gradually evacuating his position at
Berkley and is ,onf.rrine Gen. Pope with
the bulk Of his army. The rumber of the
Yankee transports in the James River is
immense and great activity is observable
among them.
A Washington dispatch to the Times
says: Secretary Seward stated last even
ing that the current stories published in
some Of the papers and generally believed
here for the last 8 or days that General
McClellan's army had left the Peninsula
were untrue. Reasons are known h, re
that, independent of Mr. Stewards state
ment, lead in the same belief what may
come in the future, of course, remains
uncertain. Military matters, therefore,
assume profoundly mixed appearance.
Secessionists have rumors of disaster to
McC lellan's army--loss of artillery, loss
Of shipping, &C., but in very vague
form and not regarded creditable.
The Richmond Examiner of the 18th
inst, contains the following Among the
prisoners who reached the city on Sa,ur-
day and Sunday was Brig. Gel. Prince
and "a officers. including one Major.
General, Colonel and other commissioned
officers. They are all At the Libby prison.
The officers from Gen. Pope's command
are kept in solitary confinement, in con-
formity with instructions and the rule as
enforced will not be departed from under
any consideration. About 500 prisoners
have arrived at the Libby prison from
Popo's army.
The Herald Harrison's Landing cor
respondent, ofthe 18th, says: This morn
ing one OF the truce boats arrived here
with l47 Of eur Union prisoners from
Richmond. Among them are Generals
Mccall and Reynolds, Col. Simpson, and
Major Chimney, of the 4th N. Y; Colonel
Stockton Of the 10th Mich. Lieut.. Col.
Switzer of the ed Penn, and other off,
GERS captured in the battles on the PENN
sula.
Our officers thigh rank state they have
been treated with marked indignity by tho
rebel authorizes. After twelve o'clock
these returned prisoners will be free 10
join their several commands.
Rebel troops in considerable numbers
were seen last evening and this morning
on the South side Of james River.
Some of our returned prisoners state
that the night before last, Monday night,
over hundred pieces of artillery passed
their prisons in Richmond on their way
to reinforce Jackson in front OF Pope.
For several days large brigades of troops
have been marching off the same direc-
ton.
