Charleston.

New York, Jan. l5.-The Times special
FROM Washington 14tb, says: The National
Union Committee appointed by the Chicago
convention has been summoned TO meet
here February I'D.
% The statement that Longstreet had been
reinforced from Lees army Is untrue. A
letter from a prominent gentleman, an Of
1lcer. IN the Army of the Potomac, says
Lees army, instead of being depleted, Is
being increased by cOnscripts. The writer
says the rebels are using strenuous efforts to
organize and recruit their cavalry for often
siye operations in the spring. The rebel
army is encamped between Orange Court
House and Gordonsylle, and is well provi-
siOns, though suffering for clothing.
Private information from rebel sources
state that Charleston is being gradually de-
stroyed by the fire of our batteries. On
the 2Gth of December, two blocks of build
ings on King street, belonging to the estate
of the late Senator Butler, were destroyed.
Several large warehouses, occupied by the
rebel government and filled with army sup
plies were destroyed about the same time
The city is almost deserted, except by the
military. The poorer classes have erected
temporary accommodations out of range OF
our fire. Great destitution prevails among
them.

II Is suspicious for our country that

ing wider and deeper. The value OF
wool imported into the United States,
in 1861 was nearly five millions of dol
lars. The value of imported manufac-
tured woollen goods was more than
twenty-eight millions of dollars, less
by nearly ten millions of dollars than
the importations Of 1860. Taking the
last three years as basis of calcula.
tion, We have had an annual importa-
tion of from thirty-five to forty-fve
millions Of pounds Of manufactured
and manufactured wool, being the
product of thirteen millions of sheep.
The annual increase Of population in
the United States requires tho wool
from more than three million sheep.
There is an annual deficiency Of wool
OF from forty to fifty millions of pounds,
80 there need be no fear Of glutting the
market by our own production. The
investigation might be extended much
farther. 1t remains for the farmers
and Legislators to see to it that we re-
ceive no detriment by the long continu-
ance Of this home demand without the
home supply. The instrument 10 in
