WASHINGTON. Jan. 23.-The Senate has
ratified the treaty with the northwestern
bands of sheyone Indians establishing
peace.
1t has been enormously stated that Ad-
miral Porter confirms the report that the
rebels have blown up Fort UaseWell and
the steamers Tallahassee and Chickamau-
ga. His language is as follows: "a large
force of guuboats occupy the river between
Casewell and Wilmington. That place is
Theoretically sealed against blockade run
ners. No Alabams, Floridas, or Ohicka-
mRugas or Tallahassees will ever fit out
again from that point, and her merchants
will soon be enabled to pursue in safety
their avocstions." He further says awe
shall move along carefully, have no ves-
sells blown up by torpedoes if can help it,
and l think We will be in Wilmington be-
fore long"

SRRATE

ar. Wilson introduced bill to increase
the pay OF officers in the military depart.
ment, which was referred to the Military
Committee.
Petitions were presented for q constitu-
tional smendment for the exchange ofpris.
ouers, the abolition of the duty on import
ed paper, and the increase OF the. pay Of
army officers and clerks in the government
service.
The CHAIR laid before the senate.s com.
muuicstion from Secretary Stanton, sta.
ting that several resolutions calling for
information in his possession had been
handed to him on his return to the city,
and that Information would be sent in az
soon as possible.
Mr.. Wilson introduced bill entitled an
act to increase the compensation of GER
tain officers in the field. The FIRST section
provides that the Communication price OF
rations to all officers below and including
Brevet Brigadter Generals shall be so cts.
after the lst of March, instead of 80 cts. as
at present. But this shall not apply to Of
hoers who are entitled to commutation for
quarters as officers of the Veteran Corps.
The End section relieves all of17 ers OF
me Army and Navy from the payment OF
the income tax.
The Sd section provides that every off.
Ger who remains in the service except those
of the Veterns Reserve Corps, and those on
detached duty, who get Communication for
quarters, shall at the close of the war be
entitled to six months pay, on being hon
orably mustered out of the service. This
applies to the volunteer officers only.
The bill was referred to the Committee
on Military Affairs.
Mr.. Clark offered the following which
was ordered to be printed and laid on the
table for the present:
RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Rep-
reSentOtiUes in Congress assembled, That no
negotiation or terms of settlement, or con
cessiou, or compromise, be entered into,
proposed, yiel0ed, or made with rebels,
directly or indirectly, until they have man
ifested their unqualified submission to the
AUTHORITY of the Government, and further,
that however much peace may be desired,
the present war must be waged with ali
the resources and energy of the Govern
ment, until said submission shall be secured
and the supremacy of the Oonstitut ton and
the laws established over the entire terri
tory of the United States as heretofore
claimed.
The title of tnh above is resolution de-
cIariDg the sense of Congress upon the
subject of negotiations.

The Gold MISUNDERSTANDING toward
Wilmington,

NEW YORK, Jan 23.-The gold market is
quiet. The recent speculative movements
appear to have closed, and the market
waits for another sensation. The price at
4 O'Clock p. m. was 1913.
A Philadelphia despatch to an evening
paper says:
Our entire force under Gen. Terry ad.
vanced towards Wilmington and were rein
forced by heavy column of veteran troops
from the south, believed to be under the
command of Gen. Howard.
No heavy fighting occurred on the 18th
or l9tb, and it was thought our troopz
were meeting with little or no opposition
An uniformed report was in circulation
that Wilmington was evacuated and would
he at once occupied by our troops.
Light draft gun boats were moving eau
tiously toward Wilmington fishing for tor
pedoes.
There was no doubt our troops would
soon take Wilmington, and the fall Of
Charleston was hourly expected.

New York, Jan. 28.-A Washington
special to the Commercial says:
Important military news from the South
is looked for here hourly.
Gen. Terry has force enough to reduce
WILMINGTON, while Sherman with add.
tional troops placed at his command, can
walk tn rough South Carolina.
1t is said the rebels had as many priso
ners as they had men to guard them.
A special to the Post dated Washington,
The House Military Committee had
agreed to report bill for the increase OF
pay of army officers.
A Posts Washington special says;
Mr.. Blair is expected to return from
Richmond in a day or two.
Up to Friday last, leading Republicans
secuted the idea that there was any foun-
dation in the current peace rumors. Mr.
Blair has had repeated interviews with the
President and JEFF. Davis upon the subject.

BBrA NEW OouETERFEIT GRRENRACK.-
A new counterfeit Treasury note of the
denomination of five dollars has recently
made its appearance. Although very
coaIsely executed it may deceive many
persons-as it is a very common practice
to take anything in the shape of green
back, without awaiting to scrutinize it
closely. The counterfeit, as we have stated,
is very poorly executed, the engravings
being quite coarse and rough in appear
ance. The "Goddess of Liberty" on the
left hand end of the note, and the ground
work around the figure on the upper right
hand corner, are very poorly engraved, and
preseRt dim and mixed appearance. The
green on the back is of an Indifferent shade,
and unlike the genuine. The engraving is
shorter than that of the genuine, by about
a quarter of an inch. Good judges of
money will have no difficulty in detecting
this fraud at first sight, but mary unsus-
pecting persons may be deceived by them.
The fraud is dangerous one, and the pub
lie should be on the look out for it.
