HAhRlsoS's LANDING. Va, July 3I.--Yesterday
morning, oy order Of Commodore Wilkes, the

sisted by Captain John II. Steiner, started down
the river on reconnoisering expedition, the

making all haste down the river. The Galena
Immediately reported to flag officer Commodore
Wilkes, on board the flag ship wachusett, that
the new rebel rams, the Richmond and Young
America, We're lying Just below Fort Darling,
and apparently preparing to come down. The
Gauss for the previously noticed unusual activity
among the gun boats, as well as the hasty end
Ing OF the balloon reconnaissance, was then ap-
parent. .. - n.
Soon after three O'Clock, the flag ship wachu-
set was seen making her way MP the river and
In her wake some three or four other gunboats
OF less calibre. They proceeded up the river
soAuO anicO niisu dOONc ucrc, 70 point Just De-
low where the light house, called CITY Point
Light 10 stationed. Here they found the Moni-
tor, and some three or four Others. AT given
signal they all stationed themselves In line Of
battle, and are anxiousIy awaiting an opportunity
to give the "distinguished visitor" a cordial re.
ception.
During the night they were Joined by some six
Others some falling into the line Of battle while
the others are in the reserve. We cannot now
learn the names Of the gunboats 90 stationed, but
we recognise the "cheese- box" In the advance,
the Wachusett in the center, and the Jacob Bell
In the reserve. Whether the Richmond and its
eonfrsys, Young America, will to-day pay 4
visit or not remains 10 be seen. But we feel con-
fdent of speaking the truth when We assert that
they will not be allowed to return 70 their "anx-
ious PARENTS 81. .E-s..
The reason for the heavy firing heard during
the morning was, that previous TO the meeting
with the Rebel rams the Monitor and Galena
amused themselves by Smelling the woods and
"plaving ball'' with some two or three masked
batteries.
At noon Yesterday salute was fred in respect
TO the memory Of the late ex. President Martin
Van Buren,.
