THE IRoN-CLAD McsrAuK UxDER FIRE
The Richmond Dispatch Of the goth ult
announces that on the 9th the United
States iron-clad steamer Montauk attacked
Fort MeAllister, at the mouth of the Ogee-
chez river, but was compelled to haul of,
owing to some injury 10 her turres. though
the solid shot fired by the rebels were bro
ken to pieces against her armor- The truth
of the matter, as We learn il through Union
sources, is that Lieutenant Worden took the
Montauk under the Ogeechee river batteries
to test her. and allowed her to remain under
tier FIRE fur Aoays. The rebel shot had
more effect upon her than SO many hail

The editor Of this highly popular soien-
tific journal, after announcing several ap-
pointments and promotion in the Patent
Office, says:
I'VE are much gratifed to be able TO
testify that all of the above gentlemen are
abundantly qualified for the important duties
assigned 10 them. Indeed it may be said
Of the appointees OF the Patent Office gen
orally, that they are men Of high character,
good habits. liberality of jud gment, intelli-
gence and ability. The decisions Of the
Office are much more uniform than they
used to be, and are. for tie most part lib
eTal and satisfactory. Lutte Of the old
leaven of narrow mindedLess toward in
ventors remains most OF the few wrong
and incongruous decisions may be traced to
that source. Such decisions are however
generally corrected By appeals to the Board
Of Examiner, in chief The Patent Office
Department, take il altogether is in -four
ishng condition. aud enjoys the public con
fdence to a degree that it lever before
experienced. This is undoubtedly due to
the generous spirit Of encouragement which
so many Of the officials, from the Commits
sioner down, are ready to extend to pat
entees ard inventors"
The above complimen, is appreciated by
the friends OF the Commissioner, because it
comes from a source entitled to SO much
credit. That journal has never failed TO
speak out lis opinions. where it has found
anything to condemn and has, with equal
freedom, and we presume with equal can
dor, done justice to all who have 50 ably
administered the affairs of the Patent
