NEw YORK. July 3.
The Worlds correspondent has arrived here
from the field of battle before Richmond He
left there at O'Clock, Tuesday night. He saws
MoClellan's advance was three miles northwest
of Hardngs Landing and within ffteen miles Of
Richmond. The enemy was terribly repulsed in
the battle Of Monday, which was sanguinary In
the extreme. We we're attacked ut four differ
ent points, and summariy repused the enemy ut
three, when they pressed Heintzelman's left very
hard, but Sumner went to his relief and they
were finally repulsed with great slaughter. Heint-
zelman captured eight guns and whole brigade
of rebels, 500 strong. including their Colcnels,
Pendleton, of la, ex-Oongrestm4n Lamar, of
Ca, and MCGOWAN, OF s. G.
All our seige guns had been safely removed to
the river, except one, which was dismounted.
Our trensportations were all safely removed but
seventy-ive wagons which were burned in camp
The enemy attack on Monday, was fierce in the
extreme. keainey, Hooker, Richardson, and
Mccall participated. ....
! The reserve under Mccall suffered severely,
and General Mccall and Reynolds probably TAX
en- prisoners, as they were missing Tuesday
night.
! Gen. Mead was severely wounded, and Gener-
al Burns and Brooks slg tly.
Stonewal Jackson was undoubtedly killed, all
the p,i ,isoners corrUborating it.
I OeH u. II. AnuersOD, OF tHe lFeQeRar lrOu
Works, was mortally wounded in the action al
Savage's Station.
During the action of Monday the gunboats
Galena and Aroostook shelled the river road
with splendid effect. The enemy attempted tC
advance by this road but retired precipitately as
soon as the grnboats opened
McCellan's army, though greatly exhausted
from lack of rest and food, were still in excellent
spirits and every drop Of blood will flow befor,
any disaster shall befall our army.
On Monday night entertainments began an(
were prosecuted as rapidly as possible.
The first boat, with reinforcements, arrived
just as the correspondent left.
Supplies were also coming in abundance.
Our total loss in the whole six days ter
rife fighting to Monday night is about 10000
$500 of which was lost in the battle Of Friday
on the right. Col McQnade of N. Y, Col. Gas,
of Mass, Major Patterson, Of Penn al field off

FoRr NoSR0R, July l--BY MAIL.
The loss in killed aud wounded, Yesterday,
Monday, is said to have been not less than {, ,On0;
ont we have nothing definite Of the loss on eth
er side. Gen. Shields army arrived here this
morning, aud has proceeded up the James river.
They come 10 vessels via Annapolis.
FoRr M0NRoR, June 2, y p. Ny Matt.
The steamer Daniel Webster has just arrived
here from the City Point with upwards Of 500
wounded on board.
A gentleman who came down in charge Of
them, informs me that yesterday was the 9th
day that the battle hsp beef going on, with the
most terrific fighting the sun ever shone on. II
has extended the whole length Of our lines. We
have lest greas many men IN killed, wounded
and missing, probably from 5000 to 10000.
He informs me that Gen. NcClelan's headqusr-
lers are at Hsrdin's Landing TO day and his lines
extend FIVE miles above, towards Richmond.
This move OF the right wing of the army wss
predetermined upon aud planned ten days ego
aud would have been carried out sooner hut for
certain reasons we'll known in the army, but
which it would no. be proper to state.
The enemy's forces have greatly outnumbered
ours in almost every action, but notwithstand-
ing this they have been repulsed cftener than
we have and their loss far exceeds ours. Yes
terdsy Gen. Mcclellan is said to have captured a
whole rebel Brigade, and took from them sew
ersl rfed cannon, aud other pieces.
1t is now said we have lost very few Of our
siege guns, most Of them having been moved in
safety. There have been great many wound
ed prisoners taken on both Sides
Our informant says Gen. Mcclellan and his
staff sll agree that the present position of our
army is far more advantageous, as base Of op-
erations against Richmond than that hitherto oc-
eupied The gunboats can now be brought to
bear and will materially aid in carrying on the
work.
/ Some of our regiments have suffered terribly,
| while others have but little.
! Our left wing was engaged yesterday, July !,
! up to 2 o'clock, with the enemy, mostly with ar.
illery.
/ The enemy's force, gathered from prisoners
who were members OF Besuregard's western army
was 100000 men, while our effective force did
not exceed 5000.

the belief that the citizens of the States which
they respectively represent, ere of one accord
in the hearty desire that the recent success of
the Federal arms may be followed up by meas
ures which must insure the speedy restoration
of the Union, and believing that in view of the
important military movements now in progress,
and the reduced condition of our effective force
in the field, resulting from the unusual and IN
ayoidable casualties of the service, that the time
has arrived for prompt and vigorous measures
to be adopted by the people in support of the
great interests committed to your charge, we
respectfully request, II it meets with your entire
approval that you at once call on the several
states for such number of men as may be requir-
ed to fill up all military organizations now in
/ the field, and add to the arms heretofore organ
| lied such additional number of men as may in
your Judgment be necessary to garrison and
hold ell cf the numerous cities and military posi-
tOns that have been captured by our armies,
and to speedily crush the rebellion that still ex-
lists in several of the Southern States, thus prac-
tcally restoring to the civilized world our great
and good government. All believe that the de-
cisive moment is at hand, and 10 that eud the
people of the United States are desirous to aid
promptly In furnishing all re-nforcements that

The army under Gen. Mcclellan has been

Literally and gallantly as Ohio has heretofore
responded TO the calls of the President he has
ever been assured, that we had but to know that
further aid was needed from us, to insure a
prompt answer to any further calls he might
make upon US. This knowledge we now have,
