The Conduct Of the War Report
Our Relations with
Great Britain.
wAsHrroror. Aprll 6.

HAsHINGTON, april D.
OF course the report telegraphed from
here last night to some of the New York
papers, that Charleston is in our possess
sion, was utterly grOundless. It is not
improbable that it was set afOat by un-
scrupulous parties.
The publication Of the report of the
Committee on the Conduct Of the War,
produces a sensation. The universal con-
viotion is that it has utterly pulverized
Mcclellan, and proves his career to have
been the most extraordinary popular delu-
sion Of the age. His partisans, as yet,
haven't a word to say. The utterly dis
passionate tone Of the report, adds enor-
mOusly to its weight
Further Investigation as to that dis
patch alleged to have been sent to Great
Britain, prOnOuncing the sailing of snOth-
er vessel like the Alabama, from her ports,
an unfriendly act, leaves little OF no doubt
that a statement to that effect has been
made by the head of the State Department
Whether it is true or not, is another ques-
ton altogether.
New legal tender notes have been issu-
ed BY the Secretary of the Treasury under
the hundred million joint resolution, to
pay the army. This is the only addition
yet made to the currency under the extra
ordinary powers granted by the last Con-
gress, and the Secretary hopes to get along
without any further issues.

NEW YORK, April Z.
The steamer Eastern Queen has arrived
from New Orleans the 29th and Key West
the 21st.
Captain Collins reports that while at
Fort st. Philip, Southwest Pass, his Vessel
was boarded by the U. s. Boarding Officer
who reported having received q telegram
from New Orleans stating that the rebels
had began to evacuate Port Hudson.
Colonel Dudley's brigade had made an
expedition to point on the west side Of the
Mississippi, half way between Port Hud-
son and Point Couple, burned the rebel
steamer Hope, with 600 barrels of mOlasses,
and, at Hermitage Landing, destroyed
1,6OO barrels Of mOlasses, a rebel machine
shop and granery containing $4,000 bush
els of corn, beside public buildings,
including the Postoffice.
The expedition TO Ponchatoula and Pass
Manchac was completely successful. The
troops consisted Of the 9th Michigan, a
battalion of the 165th New York, and parts
of the I77th New York and oath Maine,
with two pieces of artillery. The gun
boat Barataria and yacht COrypheas, &C

Mr.. BENTLEY's LEcTURE-The address
of Mr.. Bentley before the Library Assoeia-
ton, last evening, was both interesting and
instructive. His subject was well-digested
and set forth with persPecuity and force.
The listener was not confused by useless and
tiresomo digressiOns, and no lover of English
literature could have failed to be pleased.
In the introduction Mr.. Bentley treated in
few comprehensive and well considered re-
marks, the relation which exists between the
literature of the 14th century and that Of the
present day. His views of the poet, and the
development of the English language, amid
the opposing elements of that early period,
we're expressed with force and elegance
that we're both persuasive and convincing.
His sketch Of fChaucer's principal effort, " The
Canterbury Tales was brief but effective.
In the latter part of his lecture, he intro
duced few remarks touching the cOnnee-
ton between Chaucer and Wycklife, and
drew vivid picture Of the two most imPos-
ing events of the refOrmer's life-his stand
ing alone before the Oxford Jonvocation, and
his interview with the sixteen doctors, who
came to console him on what they hoped was
his death-bed The lecturer had evidently
informed himself with care, and We were glad
70 learn that the character of Chaucer was al
we'll deserving of our respect, as mis- poetry
is Of our admiration.
Mr.. Bentley's elOeutiOn is graceful and i'm
prsssive, being utterly at variance with nOisy
harangue his enunciatiOn is distinct, hi
words well chosen, and his sentences we'll ar
ranged. From his general reserve, there Oc
casionaIIy peeps out vein of quiet humOr
which adds materially to the effect Of his de
livery.
We bespsGk for Mr.. Bentley q cordial rs
osptiOn elssWRsrei for, in our opinion; hi
lecture is ons Of more than ordinary merit

CAIRO, april Z.
The steamer Grey Cage, from Memphis,
from passengers learn Of two important
expeditions, the objects Of which may not
yet be made public.
Reports regarding the Yazoo Pass eI-
pedition are still conflicting. There is q
prsponderance Of evidence, however, that
il is not yet abandoned.
Last week, while the steamer A. D. Hine
was passing down Coldwater, she was fired
into by guerrillas. Several deck hands
and one engineer was killed and the Cap
tain mortally wounded.
In retaliation for firing into the gunboat

last, Captain FitE, with the gunboat, went
TO the town Of Palmyra on Saturday, and
after giving the inhabitants time to leave,
burned the entire toWn.
Another skirmish occurred on Saturday
