NGw York, Dee. ia letter from Key

1t app~ar that the rebel steamers had been
plying between the navy yard ana town, con,
stantlv, carrying guns, munitions, etc. Col.
Brown notified Bragg, that he should fire
into them, to which Bragg replied tire
away" On the morning Of the Dist, the
steamers again appeared. Col. Brown dis
abi,d one, aid the other escaped. A gen
eral caiinonade then took place bctwevn
Fort pIckens and barra,'cass tiie Nagaia and
RAchmtiid opening on Fort McRae and scsc-
raj water batteries. The chsayemsnl lasted
wo whole days. Fort McRae Mis- sirhced,

itotn vessels &efc slightly dhriias 4 nj their
upper WORKS. Prkens had hot even sand
bag displaced by the Barrsnca<. fire: Tn the
Z4tn, while removing Il iuse from shell it
exploded, killing live men and Mounting
many others. Col Brown sS}s he has Fort
Ba;rancas completely at Ills ii,ercy; and is
awaiting reintorcelnents to hold the forts
when he shah take them.
Another letter states that one of Wilson'S
Zohaees was Filled and ;ii!tit'ier Wounded Oh
the 22t. About a,5op stits We're fired in
the two days. At 3p. III. OF the 20, War
rlngton was set on fire by our guns, and
that place and nearly all the navy yard were
destroyed The rebel steamer Times was
disabled by the first shot. The rebel fire
sack,ned on the second day. Two compa-
HES a Wilson'S ZouaSrs have charge of the
batteifes near the Fort. and the remainder of
the regiment have worked III the tfcftthes to
repel midnight attack. Tire heaviest rebel
guns are near the light hOuse, and thcir best
nior,ars on both side Of the hospital. The
water battery bE!oN Fort McRae is a bad
| customer: The ranges of our artillciymen
are splendid.
a note dated the oath states that Colonel
Brown prohibited firing, unless the rebels
first opened. 1t being the Sabbath. One
OF our guns burst yesterday. fhc rebels

Iron-Clad Ships and Batteries.

The late board Of naval officers appointed
to report on iron-cad ships and batteries
have presented to the Department their views.
As the result of this report it is noticeable
THAT proposals are no% invited for iron mail
plates for armihg our present wooden vessels,
as the board, in the question between ships
all iron and those wood iron-cal, incline to
the latter. AS cruisers, iron and iron-clad
ships will be unsuccessful, they think, be-
cause, though their attack on wooden YES
sells must be fatal, the wooden ship would
keep out of the way. In regard to the most
effective shot. they say: I'VE know of
nothing superior TO, tie large, crss 1css9y
spherical shot. Ritfef guns Hare greater
range, but the conical shot does not produce
the crushing effect of spherical shot"
1t was suggested it seems, that our Gov
ernlnent should procure IN iron-clad vessel
to be built in England; but this is not be-
lieved to be necessary. 1t was, therefore,
determined to seek for proposals among our
own ship builders. The qualities dcn,aiI'led
%ete Hsilt draught and invulnerabihty. The
board Received seventeen proposals. Of which
the most remarkable, is one by Benjamin
