INTERESTING FROM RICHMOND.

We have received the Richmond Enquirer,
OF the 18th and 18th lnstants, from which we
get some interesting facts in regard to the late
battle near Drewry's Blufr, in which our troops
were rather severely handled. But weare hap
py TO state that Gen. Butler, according to the
accounts Of the papers above mentioned, In
alctcd pretty severe loss on Gen. Beauregard,
his opponent. According to admissions OF the
Enquirer the rebel loss in killed, wounded and
missing figures up to /, 800. By making mar
gin for the usual veraclty Of the enemy, we may
safely put II. down at 1900. In regard to the
battle Gen. Beauregard sent the following dis
patch to Gen. Bragg
"DREwRET's BLUE, May 10, 1s64-s.S0 a.

Ransom turned the enemy's James river flank
carly this morning and is driving them towards
our right. We still hold on to the right, and
are pressing the enemy back In front OF our
centre, disabling and capturing some artillery.
"Gen. Ransom stormed the breastworks,
taking four stands OF colors and about three
hundred prisoners. Our loss on the whole ap

The Rebel Wounded in this CITY

PRISE TO LEE.

In one Of the wards OF the Lincoln hospital,
in this city, there are between seventy Ave and
one hundred wounded rebOl soldiers, captured
in the late battles. Yesterday an intelligent
gentleman occupied about two hours in con-
versation with the most Intelligent among
them.
None of them seemed to express any othor
desire than that the rebellion may he speedily
brought to close, they care not how. They
are not very enthusiastic for Je 1ersoa Davis
to conquer.
They award great praise TO our troops for
their lighting quAltlesi they say they never wit
messed such fighting as they experienced in the
"Wildernessi" thEt our trc ops never fought
with such desperation, and that no troops ever
fought better.
Upon beir.g asked why they were captured,
they replieHl-Nud it was the general remark OF
all Of th'Jm-thNt our troops fought different
from anything they had ever experienced
Heretofore We advanced with one or two lines
which they found less difficulty In repuSIng
but at the ba tile OF the Wilderness our troops
advanced in Ave or six lines at a time.
The Artt th,ry had no dihculty in repulsing
And the second was, perhSps, forced back, bul
when they met the third line, 1t was beyond
human enduran CO to attempt to stand SERinS

Great Battle by
Moonlight Sat
urday Night on
James River.
REPULSE OF BEAUREGARD.
TERRIBLE SLAUGHTER OF
REBELS.
HlTLER MASTER or THE Position,
REPULsE OF BEAUREGARD.
SLAUGHTER OF
REBELS.
BUTLER MASTER or THs Position.
Beauregard Badly Cut Up.

Lieut.. Commanding Lowry, Of the Navy,
left Gen. Butlcr'I headquarters, on the James
river, on Sunday morning, and arrived hero
about noon to-day. He has had an interview
this afternoon with the President and secre-
tary OF War He states that Gen. Beauregard
made a desperate attack upon Gen. Buffers
centre, commanded BY Gen, Gilmore, on sst-
urday night, by moonlight. Deep rsrines pro-
and len; hence the attack was made eIclu-
sively upon the centre. Beauregsrd led the
assaulting column in person. His force alto.
gether numbered al least forty thousand men,
aud they were all mNssed aud thrown into this
Hght.
Commander Lowry describes the attack a.
the most lmpetuous and promising for a time
In the serios Of charges made, that could be
imagined. The rebels yelled as they came up
like Wild men. Gilmore kept his batteries sl-
lent until the enemy, massed, was within the
best possible distance and range, when the
wnrd was given, and the death dealing cannon
opened along the whole centre.
In an instant the rebel shouting ceasedj the
defiant column advanced no longer. Nothing
but skeleton was left OF II to reel and stag.
ger back. BeAuregard rallied new men to tho
breach, and again and again Gilmore hurled
the defiant traitors back. The battle lasted
two hours, closing about midnight, and was
probably one Of the most desperate eonhlcts
for the time II occupied, and the number OF
men engaged, that ha, occurred during this
war.
| There is little doubt that BSauregard was re-
inforced for this occasion with the hope Of
overpowering Gen. Butler. Instead Of doing
so, however, he TdS Dloa salldnRy and com
plttcly repul'cd Vim terrific slaughter.
During the battle the gunboatS ON the James
and AppomAtLox rivers shelled the enemy,
uOlnS great cAScublOns
Gen. Butler was commanding in person
during the entire battle, and at times very
much exposed
Tho position occupied by Gen. Butler'i
forces, on a neck OF land formed by the coursC
OF the two rivers, is impreguable. 1t II surf
death and defeat to any force, however formi
doble, that may attempt to take 1t.
Our loss, on Saturday night, was compare
lively slight, as we were fighting behind works
but the encmS's loss must have been very large
from the fact that they concentrated upon tn
centre, in masses, and wsrs net fired upon unit
near enough TO be moVcd doVH wIh certainty.
Commander Lowry says he saw the enemy
ranks completely swept away, ono after th'
other.
: The whole affair is a complete success oil
the part Of Gen. Butler, and has proved sW
fully expensive 10 BoAurogsrd.
