The very Latest.four days fighting.
Fortress Monroe, July 1.
--4 o'clock P. M.--A gunboat has just arrived at Fortress Monroe, from the scene of action yesterday, ten miles above City Point.
That division of our army has been fighting four days, and have released about seventeen miles. The fight of yesterday was left terrific, the enemy having two or three to our one.--The battle commenced with our armies forces, aid, after about four hours fighting, our gunboat got in range, and poured into the rebels a heavy and incessant fire.
This fire the rebels stood about two hours and then retreated.
Our troops have captured, notwithstanding their disadvantages a large number of artillery pieced and 2,000 prisoners, among whom is the rebel General Magruder.
The place where this last action took place is near Turkey Creek.
The retreat of the enemy last evening was with great disorder, and their loss has been very heavy — much greater, it is thought, than ours.
