WASHINGTON, June 1.-The Tribune's dispatch
SAYS
The rebels showed themselves on the Potomac
opposite Maryland flights last week, but were
scattered by few discharges from the 9-inch
Dahgrens, manned by sailors, which were plant
ed on the flights. They we're not prepared to
find the gunboats up there.
The quest on whether to exclude newspaper
correspondents from the lines of our armies in
the field is, we learn, seriously discussed in war
councils here.
Lieut. Frank G. Davis of Averil's Sd Penn
sylvania cavalry, was dispatched on Sunday last
with small squad to open communication be
tween the land forces and the gunboats opposite
City Point, in the James river, and he accom-
plished his GRAND in style so handsome aud sur
mounted such difficulties in doing it that he has
been thanked by the Commanding General in a
public order. The Lieutenant reports the Galena
very much cut up by the enemy's shot, The
battery she engaged with mounted thirty
large guns. a lot of shot are still sticking in
her below the water line.
Indications are still increasing that Gen. Sigel
may be designated for the command of the troops
in the Valley OF Virginia.
During the whole of the battle this morning

the air to report the movements of an enemy and
the progress of battle. The advantage to Gen.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The special cores
pOndence of the Times says:
Gen. McClellan's dispatch in relation to the
conflict of Saturday before Richmond was made
public early this morning, and created immense
excitement in the city. 1t is everywhere the sub
ect of animated discussion, and has given rise to
thousand rumors, each of which has its earnest
advocates.
One story is that the gunboats have forced
their way to Richmond, and command the city
while our troops are rapidly entering. Another
is that We have possession of the first line of tue
enemy's works, and vigorously Smelling the
city; but at this writing nothing is really known
beyond the official dispatch.
The general impression is that Richmond has
not yet fallen, or not in our possession; but our
position is strong and satisfactory, and that eur
flag will, in Few hours more, wave over the
doomed city.
