The telegraph announces the death, at Chariss-
ton, s. c.. on Sunday last, at the advanced age oil
81, of Mr.. Wellington, of The ChGriesto" Co"r'er.
Mr. Wellington was one of the Oldest journalists IN
America. having been connected with The Courier
for about half century. He was nstve OF NJ 1914
chusetts, we believe of Salem, but removed 70
Charleston when young man, and has since resided
there He was person of singular moderation aud
equilibrium Of character Of great gentleness Of man
ners, and geniaty and freshness of disposition. II
was impossible to know him without sympathy and
esteem. Under his management, TIE Corner has
always represented the conservative party in South
Carolina; it opposed Modification, and subsequently
favored the Wing party long there was any
Wing party to favor, but with the advance Of years
Mr.. Willingtons active participation in iis copt"
diminished, and it took on, consequently, leS
balanced and national character; and since 'he 10
ginning Of the Secession movement the moet ardens
South Carolinian must have been satisfied with 10
spirit and conduct. Some seven eight years sinos
Mr.. Wilmington became blind from catirncs, but III
1859 partially recovered his sight by sars''a'
operation. He was among the sufferers by the la'e
lire in Charleston, his houre having been deS'ro!.u
by it. Mrs. William Young Of this city Is ns OH!

THE LATEST WAR NEWS

A dispatch from Cairo says that the force
under Gen GRAFT arrived at Ivez Landing, six
miles below Fort Henry, on Tuesday after
noon. The gupboats Essex and St. Louis made
reconnaissance on the rebel works, for the
purpose of landing forces They went within a
mile and half Of the Fort, throwing seyera
shells inside the intrenchmeDts. The fire wal
returned. One shot struck the Essex. goiDl
through corner of Capt. Porters cabin. The
range of their guns being ascertained, place
was selected for landing, which was to be done
on Tuesday afternoon. The force Of the enc.
my is supposed to be $1,000. On Wednesday
Gen. Grants forces were within four miles OF
Fort Henry, and fight was expected.

hesitate and falter and hang back as it does.
Moro than two months have now elapsed since
il met, with the Capital beleaguered, the Ma.
tonal existence endangered, the Treasury nearly
penness, and Foreign Intervention TO our in
jury aud ruin most imminent yet Congress
has talked--taked- talked-and that is all.
The speeches have mainly been good speeches
we have printed them as fully as we could
but who can have patience with two iull
months of words when the Nation is dying :
Were the Capitol on fire, would Congress
dawdle as it does And what is TO be thought
Of adjourning over from Thursday or Friday to
Monday, giving a week to the Holidays, sitting
two or three hours asd then adjournirg to next
day at noon, when the country is in such II
state as ours now is Think Of the Senate
spending a fortnight on such topic as Brlghts
loyalty What was NerO'S iiddli1g TO this !
But the Senate ha, an excuse for a superiul'y
of gable in the fact that all Money bills must
originate in the House. But where is the
Houses excuse save in the popular coWardce
and denunciaton of all earnestne's and energy
in the prosecution of this momentous conflict
which was developed by the stupidity and COW
ardice of Bull Run
We for the last time entreat Congress to pass
the requisite measures to repleilsh the Treas
ury-pass them with the least possible de-
Law. If debate is insisted on, cit 1T out; II
unwse measures are presented, amend them or
vote them down; but LET the country see and
feel that YOU are terribly in earnest. Spend
no more time in critlcising Executive or MILL
tary management but supply tie means abund'
an,ly, and the People viii hold those who WELD
them 10 n stern accountability. Let m cleo
trio current 20 forth from the Capitol that shaii
quicken the languid circulation OF the vital
current through every artery OF the Republic
What is needed TO reanimate public credit and
ill the Treasury to REPETITION is general con-
yicton that every dollar is well spent and that
the rebellion will soon be Oyerthrown. To this
end, we protest against the building OF vessels
that caLnot be ready for use till June, against
making War appropriations for the next fiscal
wear. and everything else which implies that
this struggle Is To he prosecuted lhoehnlto'!'
Rely on it, this will not cannot be. II we DO
not break the back of this rebellion during the
present fiscal year--that is, before the end OF
next Juue--Europc will interfere and give the
rebels aid in some way that Will render their
subjugation next to impossible. Let, then,
every effort, every energy, every dollar BE- APP
Piled simply and solely to present, me1crable
needs aud primarily to crushing out the rebellion
Two good battles molly won Will deprive 1t
Of all vitality and hope; but armies cannot be
moved nor battles fought without means In
all human probability, next May will close on
the rebels crushed out or their independence
acknowledged by leading European Powers,

CONGRESA mUsT ACT.

We trust the People are already ripe for a
proposition that we feel compelled TO urge upon
their attention-namely, that No man shoad be
speech more than fifteen minutes tong. Or, il
some must be returned who will speak at
greater length, let every Member elect be
pledged to sat out the discussion Of any and
erery proposition before 0djomning the session Of
the day set dorm for its consideration. This
would afford opportunity for siI one-bour and
fifteen or twenty five to liiteen-minute speeches,
yet permit the question to be taken and the
bill passed or defeated by 10 z. NJ, supposing
the hour Of meeting TO be fixed at 10 A. NJ.
And we feel certain that, though Members
would 60 out in squads to take their dinner
and their tea, the daily sessions would be bet
ter attended aud the discuss DDS far more gen
orally listened TO than under tho present sys-
TEN. OILY let it be an inflexblc rule that
when a bill is set down for consideration in
committee or on third reading for particular
day. it shall be taken up at the expiration Of
the morning hour aud that, while every one Is
heard upon It under proper regulations, there
can be no adjournment or postponement, but
the vote must be taken at the close of the day
debate, and we might again feel that We had
Government ard thank God for the prospect
that we shall once more have n country.
If this Nation is now TO be divided and bro
ken up, as it has already been mperiled and
Inundated, it will not be possible to saddle the
whole blame upon the Administration, nor yet
upon our Military leaders: Congress and the
People must come in for a large share Of it.
For if the People were unanimously and fner-
getically determined that the war should be
by the most effective means and

chester press, they are only important a'
showing that the cause which The Times had
previously taken iu band is less promising than
il was. As for the statements themselves, they
are harmless, because they are intensely mean
ipgless. The writer conceals his righteousness,
smply because no either bad nothing to say,
or had received that official inspiration which
makes itself known cbiehy--both in this coun-
try and in Epgland-by misty illusions, aud
muddled prophecy.
What is most important in the Nova-Scotlan'
news is the naked statement that tho question
of recognition and of the blockade will prob
ably occupy the immediate attention OF the
French Chambers. They were convoked, IL
appears, for Monday, Jan. 26; and 1t ls assert
ed in the Paris Press, and repeated in England,
tina. the French Minister at Washington had
been instructed TO renew his remonstraDces
against the permanent blockade OF Charleston
harbor-the inefiiciency Of which, however, IL
practically disproyed by the arrival OF
Charleston brig--less than month out-at
Liverpool. This, with the kindred question OF
recognition. il ia said, will be discussed IN the
French legislative bodies; and the political
operators on tho London Stock Exchange
appear to have been affected with certain
measure of uneasiness in anticipation Of wbal
wonld be said and done. A money article,
poriray.ng this nervousness as hpPneo
specially 10 American prices, says: Inc De-
=" lief gains ground that the French Govern
ment will consider that the proofs OF the
fictitious character of the blockade have
long been too complete and numerous to
{" render it possible to be passed over without
" danger to those public and national rights,
- the quiet maintenance of which depends on
"a firm regard for precedents." This might
have been pu. more simply, by saying that
France is about to disregard the blockade
but it is well to note that We have only the
word of hostile English journalist for the
prediction. It's utterance may have slightly
affected the market, since we find n decline of
4 per cent in Consols the report Of the oath
being ga to 90. This, however, may have
been the result of decrease in bullion at the
Bank.
Regarded in its general aspect, the intel
ligence leaves the great international questions
where they were, although each arrival makes
it more apparent thsn the preceding that our
real friends in England, in France, and through
out the Continent, ore at this hour looking
with more eagerness toward the Federal forces
on the Potomac, in Kentucky, in Missouri, at
Hatteras, and Port ROYAL, than to the yaticina-
tions of hostile press, the meeting OF the
French Chambers. or the decline 10 the English
funds. The question of recognition for The
South lie TO be- determined here. lnaction may
bring il about ere many months pass by. 4
marching army true to itself and the country,
will render il. impossible for ever.
