WAR NEWS.

WA,HlNGroN, Jan. IL. Our present rela-
tions with Europe are deemed highly important
and interesting, ard as Russia seems to he Il
strong friendly power, tho President is anxious
that some one should act as Minister at the
Court Of St. Petersburg in whom he has the
utmost confidence, who can ably and fairly
represent his views and aid our cause in Europe.
Gen. Cameron accepted the Office Of Secreta
ry Of War with great reluctance, preferring 10
retain his seat in the Senate, and has always
declared his intention to vacate the place when
he could have proper successor. The gentle
man selected, Edward NJ Stanton is from his
own State, and accepted the position at the lat.
ter's solicitation.
Mir. Stanton, it will be recolectcd, was the
Attorney General towards the conclusion of Mr.
Buchanan's administration. In taking the ar.
duous position be sacrifices an immense private
business to serve the Government.
FoRTREss Monroe, Jan. ia report was
brought up by tug,boat, yesterday morning
that large propeller was ashore few miles
below Cape Henry. The S. r. Spauldlng was
sent to her assistance, but could find nothing
and returned early last evening.
The enemy raised new flagstaff and flag
over Sewal's Point yesterday. 1t is seen very
couspcuousIy above the trees.
The S. K. SpauIding is loading rapidly and
is expected TO sail for Port Royal via Ha,eras
this evening.

afternoon, and went on board gunboats llunch-

The Daily Papers cannot he relied upon.
What appears in their columns of to-day will
be denied to morrow. they tell us OF battles
fought, 4 victories won with large slaughter Of
the rebels, while nobody is hurt on our side
The number Of rebels killed at the Huntersvie
fight they told us, was ciglty-whilo already
later reports have the number killed reduced
to eight, These same false reports are trans.
terred to their weekly issues and the people
are imposed upon by downright fulsehood.

An incident that carries its own comment, is
related bya visitor on bis way to one of the
patriot camps in the Old Dominion. Seated by
the roadside was soldier, his musket in one
hand, and small volume in the other, which
he was reading with deep interest. He was
clad roughly but comfortably, and bore the evil
denccs of having seen hard service. AS tho
