MISCELLANEOUS.

No communication had been received at Newbern from
Gen. Foster since Wednesday night. Women and chill
dren are leaving Newborn. Seven thousand Federal
troops attempted 10 reach Washington froih NeWbern
but we're driven back by the rebels, on Wednesday,
eight miles with loss of about 80 men. Much urel
sness was felt for Foster but reinfocemcats were
pected TO be cent from Suffolk.
Gentlemen who reached Washington from Suffolk, on
the l. report the death of Col BoKditch of Vermont
Quartermaster at Suffolk lie was killed by locomo.
tive falling through open drawbridge Deep Creek,
on the Norfolk and Petersburg railroad.
The most feversh anxiety prevailed at Washington to
hear from Suffolk The rebel Longsreet was reported
advancing upon Suffolk at the head of large army.
An immense Uuion meeting has been recently held in
Ch cago Resolutions expressing the strongest and most
dsciGcl Uuon sentiments and pledgng united support
to the in prosecuting the war; we're adopt
ed and speeches made by Trumbuu and others.

The Attack on Charleston.

Il well for the papers not to crow 100 Justify over
the Yankee defeat at Charleston. The affair is really
Iaughab!e and promises to end very much like Burn
SIDES uniwPOrtan skrnish at fredericksburg but that
is no reason Tor tuning ground and lofty summcrsets
Ike the Yankees.
In one respect, the assault was OF immense ad-
vantage to u.s. IL proved that the Brook Gun was
more than a match for armOred ships,-a fact that
Is WorIha the powder wasted the other day. The Yam
KEGS may say what they viii about the KeOkuck, but
the, own descriptions of her iurres show Il at they
we're six and halls inches thick OF wrought iron aud
s.oped like tuutated cone. If that thickness be
penetrated seven hundred yards what will the Brooke
Gln accomplish at short raugCy The Yankees are so
good at calua ron TIA; they may figure this out for
themselves.
When the next assault is made Charleston, it is to
be hoped that Lieut.. Col Yates aud few more cool
and deliberate arters,s ike him. viii be put in chargc
Of many Brooke Guns, and left to settle the combat
themselves They will do it in short order, and TO the
euse satisfaction Of Beauregard, Yankee Doodle, and
the rest Of mankind.
It has been nsar'y FIVE months since Burnside made
his Lille reconnaissance at Fredericksburg. Dupont
all surely not wait as long that 1t would be
cruel The people of Charleston very patient, but
they il the habit Of coming North in hot weather,
and it is important that Beauregard should be here,
not be able TO assist Hooker in changing his base
uuleas Beauregsri comes back again the 100000
he brought into the fights around Richmond.

The following additional particulars OF the fight at
Charleston are obtained from late Northern papers
The Mary Sanford reached Fortress Monroe on the
the 18th She passed through the feet at Charleston on
Thursday, the 9TH inst, two days after the fight.
The Monitors ranged along the beach of Cum
mung's Point, -&l in good order.
One of the pilots Of the expedition boarded the Mary
Sandord and stated that the Ironsides and of the
Monitors attacked Fort Sumter Tuesday the 7th and
ssed some distance above the fort receiving two
hundred shot. 30
Another account says, the Keokuk passed half mile
above SUMTER where she with distractions at which
time terrific firing was kept up both sides, when
she received shot that passed through her between
wind and water, from which she sunk in eleven hours
The Nahan. within tp0 hundred yards OF Fort
Sumter in the action aud received shell at the juno
ton Of the turret with the deck which prevented che
urre from revolving and rendered her utterly useless
for the time.
The Ironsdes received $50 shots sustaining no dam
age further than starting few bolts. Admiral Dupont

much pleased
The rest of the feet uninjured and hauled OIL,
the object of tho reconnaissance being accomplished,

suspicion that all our QuartsrmSsters were not as
pure as the Alpine snow thrice beaehed by the Northern
blast has haunted the public mind for some time past
Some of them, Who before the war, could not obtain
credit for FIVE dollars we're seen driving bloOded horses
and buying negroes at fabulous prices but ike the
smell of gas to the rural bridegroom, this was set down
as one of the "natural consequences OF being IN the
Confederate service. How such lavish expenditures
could be extracted from the pay of Captain or Ma
,or was not very cer to the common understanding
PERHAPS they came under the head of Communication
for quarters" or for ratons Nobody could tell All
that ANYBODY knew was that Quartermasters lost
their places and none were punished. Theine'ia-
BILE inference was that all Of them we're honest.
Such, it is painful to learn Is not fact At last oEe
doubtful official and one questionable contractor have
come to light. The Huntsville Confederate thus shows
them up:
A OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES is not given-gave frienda
Lint to buy I'D quantity of leather just before the time
he wa, ordered by the Government TO procure IT. This
he did at the price Of go cents pound, lat least that
s the price OF leather them TO the amount OF
pounds and upwards. The Quartermaster then i'm
dressed il for Government at 81 40 pound, but let his
friend dspose of 1000 pounds Of it to one Noses
(said TO be Government agent) for $4,000; and he
offered a certain per cent 10 persuade Moses 10
take quantity more, saying There Wouid DC no uil
culrv about its dglisdoH The Quarlermast also made
one Giles an agent - buy leather for the Government
and allowed him 20 buy 10000 pounds for himself
