BSF@ The Philadelphia Inquirer relates
the following incident of the passage of the
Monitor up James river, and past bat
terry, which wasn't quite as formidable as
that at Fort Darling. The rebel flag
of truce boat, With 500 of. our released
prisoners on board, was going down at the
same time the Monitor was going up;
The Monitor passed on without noticing
the batteries. The captain of the Monitor
put his head up out of the turret, or ''cheese
box" and shouted to the Union prisoners,
Why don't you give US three cheers,
boys?' And the "boys" did give three
cheers with will. aW by don't you give
'em a pill over in those batteries r. shouted
one of the prisoners. ave don't notice

New YORK, Feb. 3.--The ISt5

time to be received from eminent
bankers favoring tho legal tender
bill.
There is no reason to believe Gen.
Butler was assured before he left
Washington that he should have a
Major Generals commission as well
as the title. He will land several
brigades at a point on the Southern
coast not now occupied by Union
soldiers. The capture will be more
important than any yet made Sec
retsry Stanton insisted that Butler
should have what he wanted, al.
though Mcclellan disapproved.
Fort Pulaski is now thoroughly
invested. Gen. Sherman daily has
reports of all that is done there and
will take the place when he chooses
TO attack.

successful.

THE LANE. HUNrER Exrpprr,os.-

THE LANE-HUNTRR ExrEDrTIos,--
1t is now reported that Gen. Lane
and Hunter fully understand each
other, and that the fact that Gen.
Hunter proposes to command in
person, will in TO sort interfere with
the enterprise. The Chicago Trib
une says:
In this connection it is proper to
say that General Lane. when 10 THE
city. was asked as to the probabil.
ity OF General Hunters taking com.
mand, and replied: that there was
work enough for both, indeed to
much for one, and that he should
prefer to be relieved OF the thousand
and one details that must devolve
upon the senior officer, in order to
devote himself more wholly to his
own command. He said there was
the most perfect accord between
Gen. Hunter and himself, and tina,
whether General Hcnter took the
field:or remained at Leaven worth,
he had no doubt they would work
harmonionsly together for the sue.
cess OF tho expedition. The fact
therefore, that General Hunter ia tc
take command, seconded by such
officers as Lane, Jennison and fou,
others like them, is encouraging o
the result.
The Hancock Jeffersonian. [volume] (Findlay, Ohio) 1857-1870, 1862-02-07

WASHINGTON, FEB. 2 The Pres
ident and Secretary Stanton say they
do not know how the Lane and Hunt
er matter stands now. Lane was
appointed in expectation that he,
(Hunter) { With whom he eaid he was
friends, would arrange matters ami.
cably, which the President expected
would be done by Hunters retaining
charge Of the Department, and Lane
being detailed to the expedition
The President now expresses hope
that this will be done il consistent
with the public interest and with
Hunters approval.
Hunter was. telegraphed that he
could not have the three millions for
which he asked, to purchase fifteen
thousand animals and complete his
preparations.

| fear the banks generally will re-

delay.
Tho chairman Of the Ways and
