We have news three days later from vera

TIRE CgNsOEsIsP or THE PRES

We publish this morning the iull report Of
the House Judiciary Committee Oh the subject
of the censorship exercised at Washington over
the dispatches sent thence by telegraph. IL
contains much curious and entertaining matter.
In April Of last year ii seemed to the Cow
eminent desirable TO assume control OF the tel
epraph lines leading from Washington. 7 his
censorship was first in the hands of the Treas
urv Department; was then transferred TO tie
War Department; finally going to the De.
partment Of State, where II repcsed I'LL
the 2jth of February In selecting a
what qualifications were sought alter.
The man TO whom wos entrusted tho delicate
duty Of flterng the news Of the country APP
pears to have been a maker Of mathematical
instruments, who was chiefly remarkable for a
singular dsincliuatioD t. even the cursory
study Of American politics, and for an entire
indifference to the affairs Of the country gen.
orally. The Instructions from the State De-
partmcnt under which this Censor acted were
broad, if not sweeping; they directed him 10
suppress all dispatches relating 10 the cirI Or
military operations Of the Government. Under
these Instructions, the energies of the CensOr
seemed early 10 he devoted 10 keeplOg oul
of print everything rejecting on the acts
or motives Of the civil officers OF the Govern
ment, so that in o very short time It Was
understood among the correspondents that It
would be useless TO send to the telegraph Office
such items, as they would not go. The Censor
then pursued his task with much zeal and little
discretion. The report contains large number
of suppressed dispatches; the reader of these
will be at a loss TO discover what rule guided
the hand which killed them. IL was forbidden
TO say that Gen. burnside took extra
muskeis with him; the important iniorma-
ton that slight snow storm was
aud thoroughly suppressed; in several instances
items which had appeared in the Washington
papers, and tad been cut out by the CORES
pondent after having been in print for many
hours, were refused passage by the maker Of
mathematical Instruments who took no interest
in politca. Concerning tie Trent affair, there
appears to be something singular; the Censor
was instructed to allow nothing touching The
settlement Of this matter 10 60 over tho wires;
no did refuse a variety Of dispatches which
seemed to him to bear on the point but
allowed Mr.. Russell, the correspondent Of The
London Times, to send an unmistakable ray OF
light to friend in New,YsTh, who was per-
haps acquainted with stocks.
The Committee however, say that although

orr news from Island No. 10 Is Interesting
ord ;mnortant, though still not decisive. on
yvodne.aay and Thursday the firing was kept
nm from our sunbOsts with vigor, being directed
chiefly against the upper battery on the len
uessee shore. All its guns except one had been
s,lenced at the latest reports; when THIS bat
terry was entirely demolished the attack was to
be carried TO the next. The works on TIE
island and the main land are much more eA-
tensiye and formidable than it was at first sup
posed. There ara at least 30 guns mounted,
many of them of the largest size, and num-
Der of them ribed. 1t is reported thai there
are twenty thousand Rebel troops there'
though this seems hardly possible. Shells ron
our mortars are doing great havoc IN the
enemy's camp, and some of the Rebels are
continually occupied in carrying oil their
wounded and the slain. The presence OF
LARGO number of loaded wagons on the Iennes-
see side. on Thursday, was thought to indicate
q speedy evacuation Of their position by the
enemy. The amount of work done by our
boats NAV be gathered from the report OF Mon
day. on which day Com. Foote fired 9Oo sho'
and 200 shell. Gen. Pope had on 1hursday
the enemy's fleet quite at his mercy; escape
was impossible

HAI,IgOR DEFENSEs.

II ia conceded that now is the time 10 pro-
cure and maintain more Trustworthy military
defeu-es for the harbor of Ncw.lork. 1t is
not merely to meet the emergencies OF the
present season or year; but We must look to
the possibility Of dangers from foreign invasion
in future times. Granting tho need of the I'M
mediate construction of one or two iron-clad
batterie, solely for this port, the question
arises. To what source shall we lock ior the
necessary funds We have recourse, first, 10
the General Government; second, to the State
Government; third, to the City Go'ernment;
and. finally to corporations and capitalists of
our own city.
TO the first, il is objected that the Govern
mept 10 now pressed heavily with duties per
tanning to the maintenance of the Union The
War Department IT is supposed, is willing for
the present moment 10 leave TO the merchants
and corporations OF our city the protection Of
lis own interests, with the assurance that
Congress will at al early day reimburse the
money expended Many Of our citizens are
creditors of the Government to the extent o.
millions due for months past, and caLGot OBJ.
tain speedy redress
70 The second, il is objected that Il law aI.
thorizng tho CITY to issue its bonds Tor the
purpose Of raising the requisite funds, would
consume some time before II could be obtained;
aud. if secured the disbursement of the money
by city authorities might not be a' wisely
applied as ii b. our own merchants, or BY Il
Committee in their behalf; and moreover tho
City cannot issue such bonds or borrow such
money without the authority OF tho State.
For promptness in raising the necessary
funds, aad for celebrity Of movement in the con.
,truction ol ono or tYo ships OF the Kind
needed, we must Therefore rely upon our cor.
puraiions and capitalists. We find that the
Banks aud Insurance Companies alone, with
capital Of ouo hundred millions Of dollars,
can, with small percentage, furnish the
money. Their capital IS as follows:

Three lltefs per cent would be.............. $1,000
To these should be- added tho capital Cor ms
SETS Of Savings Banks, amounting to fifty
mil ons OF dollars.
Mons Of these Insurance Companies can. BY
their charters, lean their fund. for the purpose
under considerations; but it i. urged that in
view Of the eygcncies of the times they may
contribute their quota of the amount demanded
"a f. part Of their contiUgen, expenses" re-
lying upon Government to reimburse them.
This should be done ut once. Every bank
stockhOlder and insurance share or scripholdor
is interested in maintaining city delcnses. The
Marine aud Fire Insurance Companies are
largely Concerned in keeping out foreign aud
domestic enemies, and in keeping the ocean
clear Of pirates and privateers.
In view of these joint interests, the following
resolutions have been suggested fox adoption b!
