NARROW ESCAPE or A BLOCK ABE
RUNNER.

NEW 1oAh, jan uary IL.
The steamer Corsica brings Nassau pa.
pers of the 10th, which gave the particulars
of the unsuccessful chase of the blockade
runner Hsnss by the Vanderbilt. The
former threw over 20 bales Of cotton. The
Vanderbilt gained on her fast, but the Han
sa escaped BY running inside a reef.
Several blockade running steamers had
arrived from Wilmington-are commanded
by the noted Coxetter.
The Herald has letter dated off Will
mington the 18Th, which details the cap
ture or destruction Of the blockade run
ners Ranger, Bendigo and Hero. Bendigo,
which was run ashore, was set on fire and
shelled, but being an iron vessel, she was
comparatively unchanged. An attempt
WAS made to tow her off by the Montgom-
cry and Iron Age. The Montgomery stuck
fast, but her powerful engine got her off.
The Iron Age also got ashore and though
two other bosts tried4heir best, could not
be moved. Her guns were thrown over
board, and che was set on FIRE and blown
up. The officers and crew were trans
ported to other vesses.-The Ranger was
run ashore and set ,,on FIRE By the Minnesota.
There was one man killed and one wound
ed in the bostslwbich assisted her, by the
rebel soldiers from the shore The Hero
was destroyed in the same way, by the
Aries.
The Montgomery had been engaged for
20 days shelling rebel cavalry along the
coast.
The letter adds that the blockade run.
ners are fast being used up.

wAsH1Noros, January %.

WASHINGTON, January ".
Commander J. II. Strong, of the United
States steamer Monongahela, reports that
on the 29th of December, at the request Of
General Washburne, hei sent the U. s.
steamers Granite City and sciota up the
Peninsula off the entrance Of Matsgorda
Bay, Texas, with General Ransom and 100
troops to cut off the rebel pIokets.
While the Sciota Wrs absent on recon
noisance at the mouth Of Brszos river the
troops which had been landed were at
tackled by 800 or LOCO rebel cavalry, but
were defended by the Granite City, which
fired l4O rounds before the enemy were
driven off.
On the return Of the seiots the Granite
City went down to Pass Scsbsllo and
brought up the Monongahels and Penob-
scott and fell in with the United States
gunbost Estella on her way back.
On their arrival they found that the
cavalry had made several attacks during
the night bat had been kept off by the
Scicta, who anchored close into the break
ers and shelled on either side of the troops.
During he day a rebel steamer, on the in
side, came close up and shelled our troops
out of their position, forcing them to re-
treat down the beach.
The Sciota, Granite State and Estslls
were sent in close to the shore to protect
the troops during the night, and the next
morning the rebel schooner was discovered
ashore. The weather prevented US from
steaming in to destroy her during the day,
but on going in the next morning, she was
found to have been destroyed by fire. At
ter throwing two-hundred-pou rifle
shell at the wreck, Commander Strong re-
turred to Pass Cabello and found the Sci
oto, Granite State, and Estells, they having
succeeded in getting the troops on board,
and had brought them back there.

d. The credit of the rebels in Europe is
getting down to very low figure. The
Wilmington Journal remarks:
From what We have been able to learn
by conversation with intelligent gentlemen
who have recently returned from Europe,
the impression among Confederate officers,
sgeEts, officials and citizens now In Eu-
rope, seems TO be that about the only plan
TO sustain Confederate credit abroad and
restore it at home is for the government to
bccome the sole holder and exporter Of the
cotton, tobacco, naval stores, etc. That
some such idea has been pressed upon the
attention of Congress, OF will be pressed,
We regard as likely.
We need not speak at this late day of
the mutual action and reaction Of foreign
and domestic credit. The value Of cur
currency at home is felt to depend upon
the price Of foreign exohange-ezchsnge
for reasons easily understood, being some
what higher than gold. The price of sx-
change is the barometer which marks the
rise or fall Of credit abroad II exchange
could be brought down to FIVE for one in
stead Of twenty for one, our paper dollar
at home would soon be found 10 rise pro-
porionately in value.

great work Of opening the Mississippi and

and safe to do it. In return for these ia
Vors, General Grant has been true ss steel

has obeyed his orders with zeal and slac-

daily endorses the Proclamation Of Eman

to help crush the rebellion. He also en-
dorses the Presidents Amnesty Proclama-

MIR. PesBody's GIG 10 the Poor of London.
A substantial and satisfactory begin
ming has already been made in the appli-
cation Of The generous bounty of our coun-
tryman, Mr.. George Peabody, in behalf
Of the poor Of London. This muHifcent
gift Of 10000 pounds sterling hiss been
augmented by the accumulation Of interest
in the additional amount Of &C 900, whilo
the whole charges Of management under
the careful hands eff The excellent trustees,
have absorbed only the inconsideIable sum
of $500, including lawyers fees-a fnsn-
cisl success which, especially in England,
is surprising.
By the recent letters from London We
learn that the trustees have determined 70
appropriate the fund or the larger part Of
it, 70 the erection Of buildings in suitable
localities to furnish lodgings for the poor,
and that one Of the proposed buildings hss
already bsen finished and the lodgings are
about to be let The building is large and
-comm0dious; four stories high, covering
an area Of thirty thousand equaFe feet
IL contains-besides stores upon the street,
Of which the rent helps materially to aug
ment the revenue Of the conesrn-no less
than hfty-seven 'dweliRgs' Of one, two
or three rooms each.
Besides this first building, sites have
been purchased for five others, and there
funds in hand for four more. 1t may bt
expected, moreover, that the accumulation
of1neome from the rents Of the stores and
dwellings will allow the trustees to erec
new buildings in extension Of the charity
st frequent intervals, thus making it bet
ter than self sustaining oVer-runninl
fountsin Of benevclence.

march to Raleigh and take possession of
the capital and free the State from the
rule OF the COnfedsrstes in one month.
Such an army would receive an enthusi-
sstic welcome there and all along the line

An eminent physician, speaking Of our
chairs, remarks that they are too high and
too nearly horizontal. We slide forward,
snd our spines ache. The seats should be
fifteen or sixteen inches higher in front
for men, and from eight to fourteen inches
for children and women. The back part
Of the seat should be from one to three
inches lower than the front part. This
lsst is very important The depth of the
seat from front to back. should be the
same ss the height The chair back Is
likewise unphilosOphicsl. The part which
meets the small Of the back should project
further forward. Instead Of this, at that
point there is generally hollow. This is
the cause Of much pain and weakness in
the small of the back. The present seats
produce discomfort, round shoulders and
