The West Point correspondent of the Post
states that it was reported there that our pickes
were driven in on the afternoon of the both at
White House, and that the shipping had all been
sent to West Point from White House
A rebel captured states that Beauregard had
arrived at Richmond with the main portion of
his army; that 5000 men had been sent to rein
force Jackson, and that the latter would at once
attack the right Hank OF our army, while Lee
would make an attack in front
The Philadelphia Inquirer states that the SOL
diers by the steamer State of Maine report that
when they left White House it was believed the
advanced guard of Jackson had driven in our
pickets miles off, while his main body was 10
miles in the rear. A Union regiment, and all
sick at White House able TO bear arms, were at
once ordered out. Word was sent to Casey's
division, and all the trees ON the Pamunkey riv-
er cut down to give play to the batteries of the
gunboats. All stores and munitions were sent
ON board transports, which were anchored in the
stream under the protection of gunboats.
The steamer Northern Light, from Aspinwal
2lst, arrived this afternoon with SO passengers
and $500 900 in treasure. The news from the

Battle around Richmond.

New YORK, June 30, o A. NJ.
The Tribune has just issued an extra with
dispatches from the battle field Sunday MORN
ing. The despatch states that a severe and
most determined battle was fought on the right
wing, on Thursday and Friday, which is claim
ep by some of our officers as successful and
strategic movement into which the enemy un-
Willingly had been drawn, and which will soon
result in the capture of Richmond and the en-
tire rebel army.
The attack was made by the enemy in inn
mense force, who crossed the Chickahominy
above Mechanicsville Thursday afternoon.
They fought desperately, but were unable to
drive our men single rod, though the enemy
were ten to one.
The only force engaged that day was Gen.
McCalfs division, which fought from o'clock
until p. NJ, when it was ordered back. Gen.
Mcclellan was present, and expressed satisfac-
ton at the result
The enemy in large force made the attack
abou' +. NJ, and advanced with determined
courage over the neiry ground in front of our
lines, but they were literally mown down by
our terrific fire, and retired.
On Friday the cannonading was terrific and
the roar of musketry cannot be described
The last desperate effort of the enemy this day
forced the Union men back TO the low ground
between the hill and bridge, and a panic was
almost inevitable, when Meagher's brigade of
irishmen came over the hill, stripped to the
bare arms. They gave terrific yell and
pitched in like tigers. The enemy retired.
A rebel major was taken prisoner by Count
de Paris. He states that the whole of Stone
wall Jacksons army were here, and in the at
tack on our right.
The rebels had from 10000 to $4,000 troops.
The loss OF life is large on both sides. The
artillery of both Porter's and Smiths division
piled the rebels in heaps, and during the whole
battle the carnage was terrific.

NEW YORK, June 30.
Rumor says that some officers from Gen. Nc
Clellan's headquarters report that during the re-
treat of the right wing Gen. Mcclellan advance
ed his left wing some five miles to an eminence,
where quantity of charcoal was being used to
heat shot for Richmond, of which place the po-
sition is within Smelling distance.
Rumor also says that Gen. Burnside has land
ed IN the rear Of Fort Darling, and all his avail
able troops were ready to attack it.
An officer gives report that Richmond is al
ready on fire from hot shot. These reports are
given without youchng for their credibility

~ The lecture Of Mrs Goddard a. III.

u The lecture of Mrs. Goddard, at the
New City Hall, last evening, notwithstanding
the unpropitious state of the weather, was well
attended, and the audience appeared to be
much interested in her statements regarding
the present war, and all of its ascendant hor-
rors. This lady in her quiet and Samaritan
way Of doing good, opened largely the hearts
of her hearers, as well as their purses, and by
her recital of the many hardships and prya-
tons of our brave defenders, touched many
chord of sympathy in the hearts of those,
who now feel stimulated to fresh exertions in
behalf of the sick and wounded soldiers of the
old Pine Tree State.

THE FOURTH AT HoULToN.-We learn from
the Times, that the first exhibition of the
Aroostcok Society for the Improvement of hor-
SEES, will take place in that town on the 4th of
July. The Society has incurred heavy ex-
pense in purchasing and fitting up its trotting
park. Liberal premiums are offered, and we
have no doubt but that the "down east" boys
will have good time. "Good ORDER" says
the Times, will be enforced, and no liquors of
any kind will be permitted on the grounds or
in the immediate vicinity" If no liquors are
permitted, there will probably be slick hers"
