Arrival of a Hearer of Dlspatclica from
I?Ir. Yancey.
Charleston, Jan. 2.—Thu fighting on the
coast began yesterday morning. Three thou
sand five hundred of the enemy having landed
ontfu* main near Port Royal Ferry, were met
with the bayonet by two of our regiments, whuu
the Yankees fled precipitately, throwing down
their arras as they ran. They were driven to
their boats, when the boat howitzers opened
fire, killing six and wounding twelve Caroli
nians. The enemy’s loss is about the same as
our own.
To day tko enemy landed in much larger force
at the same place, when Gen. Gregg’s Brigrda
fell back a short distance to a more eligible po-
sltibp.
The pickets were skirmishing ull day.
The enemy designs an attack on the railroad,
and cannot avoid a battle.
The steamship Ellen. Warley % formerly the
Isabel, from Nassau, ran the blockade iulo
Charleston at daybreak ibis morning. She was
chased and ineffectually shelled by the block-
aders. K
She brings a valuable assorted cargo nrd

Among her passengers Is MivBisble, bearer

• Richmond, Jan. 2.—The Kicbmoin
publishes tomorrow, from the »m
oft.be 80th, the iluuiuud ul the English Govern
ment lor the restoration of Messrs. Mason ami
Slidell, and tho answer of Seward in response t<»
Lord Lyons. The English Minister U short and
pointed Seward surrendered Distantly, but.
closes hi- reply wiUr a multitude uf. \Vor*U, and
argues through firstly aud second'ly, llmt tho
, Southern imutni&loucrs were contraband aud
liable to capture. He however,, the law of
- while justifying, the capture if ui.
eqemy’s minister^ aJT conliabnnd, does not, as
in this paso, properly provide formulas for ad
judicating the capture. This might, have been
avoided, he says, if the Trent had been retained,
by ptocceding against her; which would have
been morally a decision case of CoinmUsUrtlcrs.
The moral certainty of the character of Mason
and Slidell would have been suUieient to meet
the spirit of the law. But tho Trent being dis
missed, the source was lost.
tie ward says, substantially; that the capture ol
Musou aud Slidell was in opposition to, aud the
restoration is demanded by ull the principles
winch ever obtained iu American policy and
statesmanship, and to vindicate which the United
States went to war wi'.h Eugland. By declining
to surrender the Commissioners, he would vio
late the long maintained dogma of his own
country, and which he approves.
The editor of the Enquirer gives a summary
of the points of Seward’s reply us follows :
lie saja, first, the capture was right when
'tqstcd by justice, law and decorum; second, Us
advantages must, be surrendered upon an assum
ed technicality in a court where there arc no
pleadings, aud third, that the capture was wrong
as judged by prineipb s^iways maintained in the
Uni ted, Stales even to Ibe extremity of war.
To Seward’s labored effort Lord Lyons makes
a brief reply and to the point, lie says he ha*
sent his words to Enyland, and will sec him soon
and receive ministers.
The Philadelphia Bulletin says whatever has
been yielded is only owing to the imperative
necessity of avoidiug u foreign war. While we
have a domestic war ou our bauds it is better
not to stand on punctilios, and run the risk ot
seeing the Union destroyed by an alliance be-
tweeu the rebels aud the leading powers of Eu
rope.
The New York Express says that the surrender
to necessity will soon impose on us other neces
sities in connection with Great Britain, to which
we must yield or tight. The editor thinks that
ninety days will not elapse without further iu-
suiting demands from '.lie English Oligarchy, lie
advises that Instant preparations for war be
made to the extent of a million and a half of
nun. He says the Administration has given up
■ ^{a-vjp :iud Slidell, not to law or equity' nr
right, but to necessity. The American eagle In
its trials aud troubles is humbled for the firm time
lo the British lion. The rebellion on hand di ngs*
down the ling never before humiliated before
England. Let us Americans, hanging our heads
because of our humiliation, dismiss the subject
with as much silence as possible.
' The National Intelligencer says Seward’s course
meets the approval of every member of the
Cabinet. The editor says war with England and
France is -escaped by the surrender of the
Southern .Commissioners. j
