A TERRIBLE BATTLE

FRoM rnE FIELD OF BATTLE,
June LIST, l2 o'clock noon.
To the Hon. h. NJ. Stanton, Secretary of
War;
We have had desperate battle, in which
the corps of Generals Sumner, lleint1elman
and keyes have been engaged against
greatly superior numbers. Yesterday at one
o'clock, the enemy, taking advantage of u
terrible storm which had flooded the valley
of the ChickahOminy, attacked our troops
on the nght flank. Casey's division, which
was in the first line, gave way unaccountably,
and this caused u temporary confusion, du-
ring which the guns and baggage were lost ;
but Generals Ilent2elman and kearney
most gallantly brought up their troops,
which checked the enemy, and at the same
time succeeded by great exertiOns in bring
ing across Sedgwick and Richardson's diyi-
sions, who drove back the enemy at the
point of the bayonet, covering the ground
| with his dead
This morning the enemy attempted to re-
new the conflict, but was everywhere rcpnl-
sed.
We have taken many prisoners, among
whom is Gen. Pettigrew and Col. Long.
Our loss is heavy, but that oil the enemy
must be enormous.
With the exception Of Casey's division,
the men behaved spendidly.
Several fine bayonet charges have beer
made. The I'd Excelsior made two to-day

This is believed TO be the first time in
which balloon reconnaissance was success
