TIE ARMY OF THE JAMES.

Successful Movement OF COIOrcd Troops

were Received.
HEADQUARTERS Army or THE JAMES, NEAR
RcHMoHD, Va, December 7.--This morning a
small force, consisting of o detachment Of the
3bih United States Colored Infantry, were thrown
across the James river in pOntoon boats under
cover of brigade, with several Geld-pieces
drawn up on the east side Of the river in the
vicinity Of COx's landing, between half and three
quarters Of a mile above Dutch Gip.
The Rebel pickots which lined the west bank
OF the James, and had been firing from there for
n week past, at once gave way without firing
shot, when our troops set about iuuenChng
anu are now secure I'm their position, where they
command the head Of Dutch Gap, aud will pro-
emmy in that vicinity.
This evening, Just about sunset the Rebel ram
hrhmORd came slowly stcammg down the river
followed by her consOrts the Iirgjniu and Ere
dc6S5W9. As sOOn as they Camo In range OF
Fort Brady, Captain Pierce opened tire upon the
Richmond with his 100 pound Parrot riaos, and
planted several shots into the sides OF the Rebel
craft, bringing her up standing az point whore
she was shielded In a measure By the INK OF tae
river and where she lay until darkness put an
end TO the firing.
Several shots were also son. after the Tlygiail
and Fredericksburg, and one Of them was twice
hit; but the lateness Of the hour when they up.

the latter as on the RichmoHd. Tho rams fired

tiUns.
The batteries across the James and one mortar
battery also joined In the entertainment, aud
withal made a very lively evenings work. The
crossing of our forces near Dutch GAP is evil
dcntly believed by the Rebels TO mean chat we
purpose coming through that channel tonight
with our gunbo0s, aud the position Of the rams
is such that, though exposed to the lire of Fort
Brady, only about one mile distant, they have a
good sweep Of the river down nearly, or quite to,
Datch Gap.

Finding the utmost vigilance prevailing, and
that portion of 0ur lines strongly mFnlel, fhe
enemy, aier driving in our piclets, moved for
ward their skirmsh line, and for a short time
opened rather spiritedly with u battery Of light
artillery, gaining however, no material results.
They soon concluded TO withdraw their forces
aud matters have resumed their accustomed
quiet.
The Robol troops were supplied with three

to what eN,ent | am not able as yet to state. 1t
