The Navy Department received this after

The main portion of it appears to be an ordi-
nary keg bound with iron hoops, to the end =
which are affixed conically shaped additions
OF solid wood, secured, possibly, by means of
screws. the whole encased in a thick covering
of tar.
On the sides of that portion designed to re-
main uppermost are two iron plates, fastened
down by four screws and nuts each. These
plates are about IL inches apart and in the
center of each are tubes leading to the powder,
into which are screwed two percussion caps.
Just above the cap is solid stem of brass,
which plays in cylinder of theisame material.
This stem being struck, passes down the cylin.

The machine resembles q buoy in shape. To
one end is affixed heavy weight to keep it un :
der water, and to the other rope passing
through two small, round blocks of wood-the
object of which we could not determine If as
suggested, these blocks were designed as floats
to mark the location of the torpedo to the partv
planting il, the object would be frustrated, as
it would also define its position to those for
whose injury it was designed.
The explosive material it contains is of a
peculiar character, resembling pitch or tar
very closely. 1t is in pieces, some as small as
musket shot, others as large as grape. A small
quantity was taken out, and match being ap-
piled, it exploded. 1t is thought to be what is
known as "Patent Powder" which explodes

THE LATEST FROM THE DOOMED CITY.
THE SIEGE PROGRESSING sPLEhDIDLY.

The latest Union dispatches from the army
and navy off Charleston we find in dispatch
from C. u. Fulton in the Baltimore American:
OFF CHARLESTON, Aug. pa flag of truce
was sent to Battery Wagner on Friday morn
ing, and the firing ceased during the interval.
When it was reopened again General Gill
more notified General Beauregard that he
would commence to shell the city of Charles
ton within forty EIGHT hours, requesting him to
remove the women and children from the city.
The whole Of the monitor fleet went up on
Friday night for the purpose of another ass ault
on Fort sumter.
The Passaic got aground, and so much time
was lost in getting her off that the expedition
was abandoned for the night.
The rebels did not discover the position OF the
Passaic, although she was within half a mile
OF the fort.
The flag of Fort Sumter was shot away four
times on Friday. A new flag is up this morn
Weather very hot, no ice to be had, and
nothing but warm condensed water.
OFF CHARLESTON, FRIDAY NOON, August
21.-ForL Sumter still flies the rebel flag, but
its west wall is a mass Of ruins. Shells 20 int
the fort and explode inside, some passing
through the east wall, going in one side and
coming out the other.
An easterly storm prevailed on Tuesday.
We now have fine weather, and it is expected
the monitors will 60 in force to attack Sumter
The Ironsidee and our wooden vessels have
shelled Wagner and Gregg every day, keeping
them quiet, while the shore batteries ara ham
mering Sumter.
Seven North Carolina deserters, from Sulli-
vans Island, were picked up in a boat last
night by the Montauk. They say the rebels are
preparing to abandon Sumter and blow it up;
that they have been taking the guns out ever
since the attack in April, which demonstrated
their inability to hold it. that there are not
more than six or eight guns in the fort, the
remainder being quaker.
7heya5so say that the Gordon Of beer barrels is
merely to sustain telegraph aires betaoeea Sumter
and Moulfrie, and is no part Of the distractions of
the hardor. The North Carolina troops are
anxious 10 go home, and are almost in a state
of mutiny.
The rebels all anticipate the fall of Charles
ton, and say the walls OF Sumter were extern
svely preached in April, and that there is a
great scarcity of provisions among the rebels
The flag of Sumter has been shot away four
times, and now there is no flag up.
The rebel batteries on James Island throw
shells night and day into our lines.
Admiral Dshlgren is anxious to let the army
and naval batteries finish Sumter, expecting to
have plenty of work for the monitors in taking
the interior line Of detenses.

were attempting to 60 off, with the intention in
all probability, of offering themselves as SUBJ

Tie whole story is false. There was no dis

wounded The following despatch, received
TO. day AT police headquarters, from the Thirty
