On July 1, 1862, the Battle of Malvern Hill was fought in the Peninsula campaign. Confederate forces under General Robert E. Lee suffered a serious defeat against entrench Union troops.

With the Peninsula campaign virtually over by July 1,1862, newspaper articles in Richmond gave General A. P. Hill exaggerated praise for Hill's role in the final battles of that campaign. Hill reported to General James Longstreet. Longstreet became jealous of the praise poured on his subordinate officer and a war of words broke out. At one point a duel to the death was a distinct possibility. When Hill refused to reach an understanding with Longstreet that would have peacefully ended the problem, Longstreet had Hill arrested on July 10, 1862 for insubordination. Not long after Hill was returned to active duty on July 26th due to the intervention of General Robert E. Lee.
President Lincoln can certainly be called prudent when he believed that General McClellan was unable to handle the Peninsula campaign and also remain as general in chief. The glaring error was that he had no replacement. Lincoln and Secretary of War Stanton ran the Union's complicated war efforts from March 1862 to July 1862. It was in July that Lincoln brought to Washington DC, General Halleck to be the new general in chief. Ironically, he would be replaced by a general he once wanted to dismiss, General US Grant.

In July of 1862, the British Parliament thought about interceding in the US Civil War.

However, with that said, the news of Lee's victory at the Second Battle of Bull Run, kept this idea alive in Great Britain.
