New YORK. March 20.--The Times Paris
correspondence says: "At rebel council
in that city, it is understood decision was
come to authorizing the commander of the
ram Stoncwall, TO attack the u S. Squadron
in the harbor of Ferroll, Spain. The esquad-
ron is composed ofthe Niagara, sacramento,
and it is presumed, the Iroquois. The
Stonewall carries three hundred FOUNDER
and thick cuirass, which leads tosome ap-
prehension as to the result. as our vessels
are not cuirassed. The Spanish authorities,
however, have mounted a heavy battery, and
predetermined to have their neutrality pro-
tected."
