The following is nn nccount of the operations of the Htone fleet before Churlcs ton: At hnlf-pnst fonr this nfternoon, the tide lieiiiK nearly full, we crowed the )Dr and ran n linwser to tlie bark Theo'lntiu of New London, which was to be the first victim, mid towed her across the bur to the upper boat, on the left liiiml side of the channel When ye had her in u irood po sition, Capt.

' Aye, nye, sir,' rnme buck the reply; nnd the hawser whs let jrn nnd roused ill npiili on our deck in the twinkling of nn eye. The tremlilinif old birk lieinj.' under some headway, moved slowly on to the exact spot we wished her, on I then struck the bottom; mid her micl.or dropped for the lust time in the water, the chuin rattling out us cheerfully ns nny chain mi'ht which liud made its lust run, nnd the old bulk settled down into its own prnve. The pbnr bud been knocked out ns the nnehor dropped, iitnl the water rushed madly uml wildly iu. Iu ft moment the whale-bouts were lowered nnd nlonirside, uml the dun nairf of Ihe officers nnd crew rapidly paps- ed over the Imlwarks nun into them. We didn't wait for them, but hurried nut lo tow in niiolher liefure dark. The fust ship touched bottom, nnd the phti; was drawn ns the snu went down. Each had finished its course . it the same moment; one to rise on the morrow us bright nnd lilorious us ever, the other to wastp iiWHy mid pi to pieces under the combined ac tion of tite elements which it hud braved so lonif nnd well. A his! that n vessel worn out iu the s rvice of its owner, should be sold mid come to such on ignoble end. The Ribtccn Simms was lowed in nnd anchored it t the other side of the channel, and the water soon filled her hold, nnd she sank slowly nnd in n dignified maimer, rm kinj: uneasily, to be sure, ns the water poured in, bill i:nii(r down with every rope and spar in place, ns n brave man falls in j ...,. ujtli luirius on We had nut ,., ,i1M ...;,; nr ,. ...

All were dismasted except the Rubin Html, which wus spared lor nnoth- er pnrprise. 1 he scene presented in the harbor whin the work was done was novel and interest- injf. Here wire fifteen dismasted bulks, in every possible posit'on, lying ncrosa ths cliatinel some on their port, other on I In ir larboard sides. Some were tinder water forward, others nft. The h nwrpt over Koine of tlu m; others stood on npruht keels mid spouted water from their nidfS, as the heavy swells raised them nnd drop ped them heavily down npon the mind airuin; nnd proudly anion? them wag the Kast Indinnian, brave Rubin Rand, with her taperitijf iimstg towerinjf uloft, nud aj purently still afloat. Commander Davis snys thnt lie wan Ifii'ded by severul prineiilei in cl.oosiiiD: the place nnd Dimmer for sinking the vessels, viz: first, the bur was selected becnuse it is the priucipul mid culminating point of the natural deposit in this line, by .riding the materia! contained in the hulks to those already placed there by nature, it may be expect' d that the lintiiral forces which a greate the latter will tend to keep the for mer iu their ussigncd position; second, by Ijutting down the vessels iu an indented form it was intended to create a material obstruction to the channel without furi ously impeding' the flow of wuter. If it were pos.ible to build a wall across the channel, the river, which must flow to the sea, would undoubtedly take another and simitar path; but if, on the contrary, the blocking tip or the natural channel is only partial, the water may retain a part of its old course, mid require the addition only nf a new channel of small capacity. Third, the mo e of sinking Ihe vessels is intended to establii a combination of artificial in terrnpt:oiis and irregularities, resembling on a small scale those of Hell Gate or Holmes' Hole, iiiid producing, like lhro, eddies, whirlpools and counter-currents, such as render the navigation of an other wise difficult channel hazardous and uncer tain. Iu the background wore Morris Island, the brownish red walls of Sumter and the low walls of Moultrie, over which flew a. rebel ens'pn large enough to wrap a ship in. One poor, misemble tugboat, consti tuting the rebel navy in these waters, and! a small schooner, made up the movinjr ob jects in the Inn kitroond ol the panornna. At six o'clock this erening, fire was ap plied lo the Rnti'm Hind, and she began l hum brightly, but not briskly, and it was not until eight o'clock tlmt the mizzt-nmast fell.

K3 The Karl of Shaltesbnry, the noted English abolitionist, lately said to Tburlow Weed, in courcrsation on Ainercnii nffairs " 1, in common with n!mst every Eng lish Stat, small, sinetrely driire the rvpture of the A'neriran Union. It has been the policy of England to brook no rivalry, especially iu tho direction of her own great ness. We justly fear the commercial and political rivalry of the United States. Willi a population of 3'i,000,000 now, they will soon, if not checked, overshadow Great nntniii. We cannot look upon such monstrous growth without apprehrnsioa." This language precisely coincides with tlmt used by Sir Edward Hulwer Lytton, in his speech at ILtchin. " America sub divided," he said, " is less formidable to Europe, nnd l.s dangerous to England," and therefore be hopes nnd predicts that .she will be broken up, "not into two, but many States!" Such is England's hope; such lias long been her purpose, and sha llow thinks the oppurtunity has come when, she can realize both. I'onTt.ANn Soap Works. W. TJ.

It is a thrillinpr and most gratifying fact, says the Louisville Jvurnnt, that, in allot the many fights and skirmishes which have taken place in Ken lucky, the Union troops, though in general very greatly outiinmlered, have been sig nally victorious. There has not been a si.l tary instance of a different result. It would seem as if the mere contact with the soil of Ketilui ky pnrnlyjed the ainews of the rebels' arms nnd strengthened the mus cles of their legs. Ax Iscii'KNT or the War.
