COuntability for absence of single day.
General Sherman says now Is the time, II

A Bold Attempt TO Destroy the Mime sofa

An officer from that vessel states that about
O'Clock, Tuesday, u small tug was discovered
approaching the llag-ship. She was hailed, and
answered In reply TO the question, " What boat
is that I" "ThG Roanoke" Stlll approaching,
she was warned to keep OF or she would be
fired upon. Regardless Of the warning, shg
came on, drifting with the tide, and when quite
near steamed straight at the port-qUartcr,
striking the Minnesota with torpedo or in
fernal machine, which exploded, shaking the
noble craft with u terrible conclusion from
stem 10 stern, and throwing the lug several
Yards from the chip. Immediately steam was
gotten up on the tug, and before anything
could be done by the people on board the ilag
shin the tug was safe oil IN the darkness.
This midnight visitor Is supposed 10 have
come from tho NansUmUnd river Or ChuCka-
turk creek. Her internal machine was rugged
on a long detached pole over the stern Of the
tug. and although It proved q failure either
because of its own weakness or the strength Of
the Mlnnosota's sides, yet, II exhibits daring
and enterprise on the part OF the rebel pirates,
as well as perfect knowledge OF our naval
vessels at the mouth of the James, that 10 as
brilliant as 1t is vicious. -,,. a..
The Government tug laying alongside the
Flagship that should have had steam up ana
given chase as she was ordered on the spot,
danced up and down on the disturbed waves as
pOwerless for harm to the unknown midnight
visitor as the chainGd dog Of Gray street.
Thank God this miniature attempt resulted
in nothing more than shaking Of the loose
ends Of the sleeping powers Of tho Minnesota

THE DEBATES UPON TREASON In
THE nOUSE.

The debate upon Mr.. COlfax's resolution 10
eXpcl MIR. Long, Of Ohio, for his remarks on
Friday last in favor Of recognizing the rebel
coniederacy, acknowledging the right OF seccs-
sion, and abandoning the war TO put down the
rebellion, was continued 10 II, O'Clock last
night.
Mr.. schenck, Of Ohio, made a scathing
speech In reply to Fernando Wood, exposing
the record of that gentleman as a sympathiser
with the rebels.
Mr.. Voorhees, made a characteristic speech In
which he played the role OF the martyr of free
speech and attempted 10 wound Gen. SchUnci
with his sarcasms and personalities.
General Schenck replied to the personalities
which related 10 his action In Congress upon
the Mexican war, and the affair Of one Of hii
regiments at Vienna, in the early part Of the
rebellion. II Is about needless TO say that hi
Yindicatvd himself easily and completely.
In reference to the Vienna affair, he said hif
conduct on that occasion was highly comPll'
mCnIed, aud hc only noticed the remarks OF
the gentleman at this time because u Blur OF
the same Kind had been cast upon him on
several occasions, hut never before In his
presence.
Al five O'Clock Mr.. Wnshburnc proposed an
adjournment Of the House, and Mr.. Colfax
asked that two O'Clock to-day be sct apart for
vote upon the resolution. Messrs. Cox and
VOORHEES, said the opposition would not allow
vote to be taken until all the opposition mem,
bers had been heard on the question, when Mr
Colfax expressed his desire that the debate
should proceed TO a conclusion that evening
"om soldiers" said Mr. Colfax, care in the
field fighting our battles by day and by night
and we ought not TO shrink from hard work In

A VERIFICATION.

We publish in our outside columns to-day a
report made to the Senate by the Committee
ON the Conduct Of the War, which proves the
statement we originally made respecting the
true responsibility. for the disaster at olustce,
Florida, TO have been eminenLly correct. Our
statement, made day or two before the New
Hampshire election, was carped at as having
been intended for political effect. 1t will be
seen by the documents published by the Com
mittCe that ii was perfectly true, and that we
were fully justified in denying the slauderous
reports Of the Democratic press against the
President in connection with thR unfortunate
Florida expedition.
We took occasion a few days since " deny
the published statement that General GillmOre's
appointment as Major General had been re-
jectGd by tho Senate. We believe, however,
that Developments in regard to the late Florida
expedition have caused his nomination to he
hung up" and that tho Senate will not con-
hrm his appointment.
