old Committee on the Conduct of the
War, who will be empowered also to in
quire into the expenditures of the war.
They also agreed to raise Committee
on Emancipation, to whom all papers on
that subject are to be referred.
1t is well understood that Senator Nc
Douglas resolutions declaring war against
France in certain contingencies, will sleep
their last sleep in the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee.
1t is said that Secretary Chase contem-.
plates the issue Of ten-forty bonds when
the present series of fve-twenties is ex-
hausted; and in order to meet the demand
upon him for the payment of veteran.
bounties, he will resort to loan and con-

New YORK, January 12.-The IEiba@,e's
Morris Island correspondent says that the
rebels had in Charleston harbOr irOn-clad
steamers, close limitations of the new
Ironsides and Dunderbergh.
Charleston takes fire and burns apace
from effects of bombardment. Fires al
ways spread and burn hours at time.
Last Sunday they burned eight hours. M
In one mass of distractions hauled
away from the beach of Morris Island are
sixteen bars of iron rails removed by nat
ural cause. Nothing now prevents the
taking of Charleston when the Admiral
wills it.
In postscript the correspondent adds
that the rebels have three iron clads build
ing at Charleston-two of them ON the
Dunberbergh plan. n
On January LIST the q. s. steamer Mix

pentine at Murrills Inlet, sixty miles north

viate the explosion of Greek fire shells till
