The motion was agreed to.
Mr. DONOVAN moved that the Senate do
now adjourn.
Mr. JOHNSON. Mr. Speaker, before the
motion is put, if it is in order, I desire, to
ask a question of the Speaker. As I was
coming td town in the cars, I heard the boom
ing of cannon, and I think the ringing of bells,
indicating, I suppose, that some circumstance
of great moment had happened. Can the
SReaker inform me what the hilarity and jol
lification meant?
Mr. T , AMRERTON. George Washington
was born on this day. .
Mr. STEIN. I will state to the Senator
that this is my birth-day. [Laughter.]
Mr. JOHNSON. Then I understand that
it was from the fact that this is the birth-day
of the Senator from Northampton!
The SPEAKER. That appears to be suffi
cient explanation.
The motion of Mr. DoNovni was then agreed
to, and the Senate Adjourned.

PROGRESS OF SIEGE OF CHARLESTON.

CHLBLESTON HatBOB, Feb. 10
Operations are, becoming a little more active
than they have lately been. General Gillmore
is constantly visiting the different posts to the
southward, and almost every arrival from
those quarters brings news of some raid into
the interior. On James Island the pickets
still daily exchange pipers, and the late
Charleston papers indicate the most abject
misery in the city. We have a constant and
steady stream of deserters coming in, varying
in number from four to ten, daily. The ma
jority of them are from North Carolina, but
almost every State is also represented. A fort
night ago, a rebel lieutenant from Georgia
came in. Day before yesterday, Gen, Bean
regard's barge crew deserted ea masse, and
came over to Admiral Dabigren. Their news
is Very interesting to the fleet It seems that
the rebels have eight torpedo boats, like the
David that attacked the Ironsides. These
boats are all ready and expect to come down
nightly. They .are represented as being larger
and as carrying two persons more than the
original one. They experience great difficulty
in getting crews for them, although there are
plenty of officers who volunteer for the duty.
The submaiine affair, they state, came out
of Beach Inlet a week ago, intending to attack
the Wabash, but she sunk when on the pas
sage and drowned all hands. She was raised
the snoceeding night and towed in again.
This makes the third time that She has sunk
and drowned all hands.
Blockade stock is buoyant. They nearly
succeeded in running in a large, long side
wheel steamer on Tuesday night, but she
grounded just Tinder the guns of Moultrie, and
was destroyed next morning by the Monitors
and batteries Wagner and Gregg. •
It seems .that Gen. Beauregard permitted
his barge crew to visit her in the night for the
purpose of " collecting." Johnny Bargem•an
took advantage of the opportunity and came
into the. Federal lines. They; say it is the
steamer Presto, loaded with clothing and pro
visions and with a small'quantitylof arms and
ammupition. Eight vessels are still expected,
one of them named the St. Petersburg, loaded
with a valuable cargo of guns and ammuni
tion. The fleet is on the alert. The number
of vessels outside the bar has been doubled,lthe
iron-clads all move up at night and one patrols
the shore 'channel. The Monitors have been
rendered unapproachable by fenders, netting,
and torpedoes,
so that Admiral Deddgren now
gladly expects the torpedoes down.
Two of our men were killed in Wagner yes
terday. We have the greatest difficulty in.
making them. cover, and consequently they
occasionally pay the penalty for their rash
ness.
As I write, there are two large fires in
Charleston, the result of our shells. Desert
ors say the city is now divided into two dis
tricts, viz: "in range" and "out of 'range,"
and that no other expression' is used. You
hear constantly remarks, as "Whine are you
going ?" "Well, I've got to,. go down in
range," or "I'm going up ou t of range tiow."
Burglaries occur every night "in range," as
the inhabitants do not stay there to protect
their goods. One of the guns in Wagner
niched a piece out of St. Andrew's steeple
last Sunday. It must have created a sensa
tion, if they were holding divine . , worship
there. General Gillmore is expecting heavy
reinforcements, and will; no doubt, treat Dixie
to a very active spring campaign. The wea
ther is . very moderate, the thermometer stand
ing, on an average, at 70 or 65 degrees.
CAPTURE OF A REBEL BATTERP-TORPEDO EX-

HILTON TTF. r), S. C., Feb. 16, 1864.—A re
connoissance in force was lately made by
Brigadier General Terry towards John's
Island, lying between Folly and James Islands,
with narrow salt water creeks intervening. It
resulted in the capture of a rebel battery of
field pieces, with their caissons, ammunition,
&c., as well as the gunners serving them. Our
loss was five killed and:wounded.

At Station Creek, yesterday, a trial was
made with the new torpedoes invented by M.
Maillefort, the sub-marine engineer, who some
years ago reduced the sunken work at Hurl
gate, near New York, and thereby improved
the navigation of the Rest River and Long
Island Sound. The, apparatus consisted of a
tin case, con wining one hundred and twenty
five pound,s of fine powder, with an internal ex
plosive agency regulated by machinery: It is
designed to be floated by the tide against.har

Station Creek, and the torpedo litinlelled

ebb, and the machine consequently did not
approach near enough to effect more hurt.
But for this miscalculation, the whole mass
must have been destroyed.
