: So far as we can Judge from the views and in
fsrences Of correspondents, it is reasonable to
suppose that our forces have won decisive VIC
tory, Of strategic character at least, over the
forces of the enemy before Richmond. 1t is
claimed that Mcclellan had been DESTROYS for
some time to change his front on Richmond, and
abandoning the unhealthy swamp on which his
tight wing rested near the Chickahominy, shift
the base of operations from the York to the
Jsmes river. vol -. . a.a4 .a,a ~8
"a. This it was hoped to have been effected with
out general engagement but the enemy, temp
ted by the weakness Of our right wing, fell upon
: it in immense force near Mechanicsviile, on
Thursday last, and terrible battle ensued which
was progressing up to the last date we receive
from the seat of battle, and with terrible fury
r and carnage on both sides. It is supposed, how
ever, that the point Gen. Mcclellan undertook
to make has been entirely successful, and that
he will new cooperate with our gunboats upon
2 the James River, and dash on to Richmond be
fore the bafied enemy have sufficiently recovered
to resist him. f'
Telegraphic communication having been cut

day last, we have no certain intelligence Of what

every appearance, We cannot but presume, that
the highest success will crown this movement,
and that we-shall learn soon enough of the fall
Of the rebel capital. Meanwhile, we must wait

THE close Of last week was marked by impor

THE close Of last week was marked by import
ant events before Richmond, prominent among
which was a battle, or rather series of battles,
continuing through two days. The fighting,
however, was only incident to more important
matters, which will be found to result as follows:
Gen. Mcclellan has contracted his lines, and
massed his troops between the Chickahominy
and James Rivers-the latter of which will con-
stitute his base Of operations until the fall of the
rebel Capital, which cannot apparently be long
delayed. White House has been abandoned, and
the right wing of the army has been drawn in
across the Chickahominy-no without consi ler-
able loss of life, but still slight, it is believed, in
comparison with that of the enemy. The sup
plies for the army will hereafter be conveyed up
the James River, under the protection Of our gun
boats. On Friday morning the enemy made the
looked-for attempt to turn our right wing. The
rebel division of Gen. jackson, which must have
started for Richmond Immediately after the tiasco
in Shenandoah Valley, attacked Gen. McCall's
Division of the Pennsylvania Reserves, on our
extreme right The action lasted for three hours,
and was brilliantly successful on our part. Jack
son was repulsed and severely puniseed. The
rebels then made general attack on our right
wing, which was composed of Gen. Fitz John
Porter's army corps. A severe battle ensued, in
which the rebels suffered severely. In the midst
of this battle Gen. Mcclellan executed the move
ment for which he had been preparing. His
whole right wing commenced an orderly retreat,
falling back until it had crossed to the south side
of the Chckahominy, in the rear Of his left wing,
and pushed on towards the James River. The
movement was carried out in excellent style,
everything valuable being secured, and the reb
els repulsed in their attacks upon our rear guard.
The evacuation of White House was completed on
Saturday, all that was valuable being carried
away, and the remnants not worth being moved
burned. In this destruction the White House it.
self shared, some unauthorized persons having
set FIRE to it in the confusion. Our troops there
were finally put on board steamers and taken to
Yorktown. ..,s..--...e----'-.
