The SANITARY COMMISSION. London
Times is highly satisfied with the report of
the United States Sanitary Commission, and
Is not sorry to take some hints from it. 1t
speaks Of the operations of the Commission as
follows:
1.-The Federals did not wait, as we did in the
Crimesn War, fer the mischief to begin They
actually appointed a Commission TO inquire
into the health Of the army before that army
had assembled, and not minnie was lost by
the Commissioners in entering upon the dis
charge Of their duties. Under the Presidency
of a Doctor, not Of Medicine, but of Divinity,
they have been at work seven months. y y
The Rev. DIR. Bellows seems to have taken his
men or his regiments, and ascertained ali their
'antecedents' with the accuracy of German
police agent. We learn everything about the
troOps-Where they came from, how they came,
how long they were coming, and what kind of
men they were, as well as how they were
lodged, fed, paid, clothed, entertained and
dOctored. II may be well supposed that this
Information is valuable. We must say that we
never met with q more exhaustive report
Tne Commission appears to have been Of great
benefit to the army, and il will now enable the
world to observe how that singular army has
been constituted.P

Gen. Jim Lane leaves on Monday for Chica-

thority to conduct the campaign on his own
principles. Lanes staff, which will be that Of

teers, introduced to-day, provides that no
greater number shall be mustered into service
than are authorized by the act Of July 22d,
1851, and that al in excess Of that number be
discharged.
The Ways and Means Committee, at their
meeting this morning, discussed for the first
time the scheme reported By the Sub-Comnlit-
tee for national currency. They came to no
conclusion. intending to pursue the matter to-
morrow. They also Incidentally examined the
plan agreed upon between SECRETARY Chase and
the Northern Bankers. The Committee arc
nearly unanimous ng2inst it.
Firing down the Potomac WIS heard be-
tween II and 12 o'clock. It has since been
ascertained that the rebel batteries had open

1t is confidently asserted to-day that Gen
Wool llas sent notice to Gen. Huger at Nor
folk, to remove the women and children from
the city.
The top-masts and spars Of the Minnesota
were taken down today; and she will, it Is
said, proceed to Elizabeth River tonight with
the fTigate Cumberland. The Pensacola is
also lying here, and every evidence Of active
naval operation is apparent

The hag steamer then proceeded up the
JAMES river, about nine miles above Newport
News, and met the steamer from Richmond
with $50 released Union prisoners. AL Of the
prisoners we're conyalescents from the lospi-
tails About twenty had crutches and dozen
had TO bc carried I'll board, some in cots. all
Of them had been wounded. DR.. Higginbotl-
am accompanied them, and the men were loud
in communication Of Ills uniform kindness to
them.
Information has been received since, that
the rebels have abandoned Roanoke Island, in
Pamllco Sound, and it is also said to-day, that
they are preparing to eyacuate Yorktown.
The latter is not generally credited.
The Wilmington On c. Journal OF Nednc5-
day has heard nothing Of the Burnside expo
dition, ami thinks it singular if it left Old
Point on Saturd; might as reported.
The Raleigh R<ytSter Of Wednesday says,
some gentlemen i'll that city report that they
heard heavy eannonadiDg on Tuesday. The
editor thinks they were mistaken, as the dis
tance from the coast is too great.
The same paper announces that thirteen
large steamers loaded with troops left Old
Point Oh Thursday, and pre5umes that they
arc intended for another expedition to some
other point. The editor has been loaxsd, as
no steamers except Two delayed by the storm,
containing the D'Epcneuil Zouases left that
day.
Prisoners from Richmond say that up to the
time they left, Friday morning ut s o'clock,
nothing had been heard from Burnside's expe-
ditiorl there The Richmond papers Of Friday
contain nothing Of the expedition.
The French frigatc Pomona arrived yester-
day. 4 salute Of 20 guns WIS fired to-day.
The fortress replied with on equal number.
Admiral G.. Aarquise D. Montaignac came
ashore this morning, accompanied by Flag
Captain ard ajd-de-camp, and was received
by General Wool with military honors. Aftcl
the visit it WAS announced that the Admiral
would, tomorrow, visit Norfolk to consult

The battery at Rip Raps threw few shells

Washington Dispatch to the n I. Tribune.1
Tie only Senator who enjoys intimate rela-
tons with Secretary Stanton is Mr. Sumner,
who moved his unanimous confirmation the
day his name reached the Capitol The re1a-
tions between him and Secretary Chase are
equally intimate. These two names should be
sufficient Endorsement Of the new Secretary,
who it nay be added is fully acceptable also to
such men as Senators Wade and Fessendcn.
The truth is that In the last days OF Buchan-
ans Administration it was Edwin n Stanton,
even more than Gen. Dix or Mr. Holt, who
did what could he done to save what could be
formed the intim2cies with the more advanced
members Of the Republican party, which be
has fostered since his retirement to private
life, and adopted opinions in unison with those
which viii certainly guide his official conduct.
He is man Of vigorous character, with
resolution to prosecute the war with the ut
most energy, and to strive to strike the rebel
lion in It's most vulnerable points, Slavery he
believes to be the most vulnerable Of all.
During his administration Of the War De-
partment, no General or otler officer Of the
army will more than once return fugitive
slave. Those who hatter themselves that in
his appointment tic cause Of slavery, of
the rebels, or Of the Border States, or Of the
"hands- of" type, has gained an ally, will be
charmingiy disappointed.
he is not 4 man of roacwatcr-doubts as to
the expedlency or propricty of doing this or
that thing, OF arming this OF that class of men
ready to fight for the Union. His only ques'
ton will be, ho" most rapidly and thoroughly
to crush the rebellion.
The Washington correspondent Of the

NEW YORK, Jan. lS.-Thc Tribune of this
city has important news from Mexico. It ap-
pears that SO far from being upset by "A new
revolution as reported, Juarez organized, be-
fore the adjournment Of Congress, new and
issued proclamation soon after his appoint
ment, closing the port Of Vera Cruz, increasing
the regular army TO 81, 600, aud calling on the
States for as many volunteers as they could
furnish. 1t is believed that 10000 troops
will be in the field soon. Before Congress ad-
journed, Juarez Was invested with full dlcta-
torial powers. The Government has laid two
direct taxes, which the people will ehecrfully
submit to-
