From the Army Of the Potomac
!. Proclamation by JEFF. Davis.

q SsAAAAAa -
INV YoRK, Oct. 8l.-A Tribune's spe-
cial of October 18th. says:
The demonstrations made by Butler's
forces on the Eastern Road began by occu-
pying the county along the scene of the
Eight Of the 14th instant. From that point
on the: DArbytown road northwardly, to
the Charles City road, considerable des.
ultory firing occurred without farther effect
than TO show the enemy's strength. The
18th corps in the meanwhile, accompanied
by KAutz's cavalry, moved out towards
the Williamsburg road aud there engaged
the enemy. Later in the afternoon we
charged carrying one of the enemy's re-
doubts and capturing several guns, while
handled In endeavoring TO take strong
position held by the. enemy on the Williams
burg road, In the vicinity of Seven Pines.
We could not avail ourselves of the oppor-
tunities gained by the capture Of the re.
doubts on the enemy's left. Our troops
were ordered to retreat which they did at
daylight, to their original position.
The loss Of the 10th army corps will
amount to 300 men, and that Of the 18th to
probably double that amount. Half Of them
were captured by the enemy.
Among the latest rebel paper accounts
is proclamation of JEFF. Davis, naming

that the many signal victories With which
our arms have been crowned and the fruit

blessed, he Acknowledges that our armies
have received 'grevious chastisement, for
which the Union soldiers can vouoh, and
that large districts OF the country have
been swept clean by the army Of the Uni

Jeff's side, as shown by his statement that
with fiendish maligpity the passions Of
serVile race have been excited by our foes.

HEADQUARTERS Army OF THH PoToMAo,
Oct. 30.-Butler's army returned to It's old
quarters on Friday. Nothing of impor-
lance happened. As our troops returned,
the rebel cavalry followed ns closely, but
did not do much damage. They made re-
peated attempts to charge, but were re-
pulsed with heavy loss. As far as ascer.
corps, which did most of the fighting, lost
10 officers killed and 81 wounded. The
cavalry division, It 10 thought, lost about
200. The loss of the enemy was severe,
some say greater than ours. We have S2S
