Benjamin F. Wade, Uni ted States Senator from Ohio, on Four-and-a half street, and asked to see the Senator. H> was shown up stairs by the servant to Mr Wade’s room. After being seated he stated that he was trying to obtain employment tr. the United States navy; and asked Mr. Wade to sign a paper of recommendat on for him ir order to further bis object.

At this juncture of the interview, Mr. Wade erose, and, stepping into an adjoining room, armed himself with a loaded pistol, and quietlf returned again into the room where the man in gray was sitting. After looking at each other some time in silence, the man began the conversation by saying : “ Aint you going to sign »y P*P el '' To which the Senator returned an emphatic negative, adding that no knowledge of *” Matters now f* aQ , to «*« h . * crisis.- The stranger hl ? feet dfrwmg out a knife abqs^" eve lnc " eß ' or Wf °nd remarking ~ j -sise y°u know we ale now alone, sir.

CharluaiJuxuju'r. had a box uent to him at his rooms, which on opening, he found to contain a hitman finger, accompanied by a note in the following word*: “You old son of » ——l send you a piece of your friend’s finger. If your bill passes, I will have a piece of your body. A Union Mam." No clue Ms yet seen discovered whereby to trace this strange missive to its origin. [Correspondence of the New York Herald.] Fortress Monroe, Jan. 12, iB6O. Regarding the alleged plot to rescue Jeff Davis, of which I wrote in my last letter, there are no specially new on exciting developments. A rumor prevailed that two or three vessels having suspicious parties on them unable to satisfactorily account for their presence here hnd been ordered away, but I find, on investi gation, there is no truth in the statement. — ‘Vessels arriving are still searched, however, and a careful watch kept night and day upon the movements of all species of water era 4 t, from the ponderous seagoing steamer to ilie lightest Liliputian canoe creeping in the still midnight hours amid the docks anil shipping. A steam tug with a guard of soldier* eyerobijs this nightly vigilance, and not a vessel, or boatman stirs but a challenge is sounded and on accounting for the movement has to be ren dered. Much more than usual strictness is enjoined also as to admissions inside the fort. Passes are most rigidly examined, and undergo the supervision of two sets of sentries—one out side and the other inside the main entrance — instead of only one, as formerly. A couple of saucy howitzers have, since the excitement, been placed facing the principal entrance, in tended, of course, to extend the primal honors of welcome —and a warm welcome it would he —to those audacious enough to effect an in gress here otherwise than through the kindly courtesies of the military authorities. I need not go into all the details of defensive prcpsia tions. It is only necessary to esy that they are ample for any emergency. The presumption is tbet Jeff Davis, the et quorum pars viagna of all this present exci e ment, knows«oothing about It, Recent ord'i? stir, t’orbid any officer or other peason saying a word uhim, and he certainly would be like'v ■ to keep mouthed on this subject if he knew anything <\bout it, even were there no order hermetically paling his lips upon the subject of conversation, ft is possible and ino'e than probable that he may any fi ,d .difficulty in accounting for the extra gn»rd >Jdaced over himself und the late rather abrupt and marked change of deportment toward him as a prisoner. Be his thoughts what they njfty, he grins and bears it with impassioned He still enjoys his meals, and they continue to be made of the best the market j affords; has the same, if not a growing relish ing fondness for his pipe; as zealously appre ciates hts daily ont-door walks, shows no flagging interest in his daily perusal of the papers and books allowed him, is still most scrupulously careful—Dot to say femininely faStmions —upon the subject of his toilet, and makes his own bed and sweeps his own rnnr daily, as of old. His health also continues excellent —to himself and to friends and foes the chief consideration of all. From the Richmond Enquirer. SENSATION AT FORTRESS MONROE— SUSPECTED ATTEMPT TO RESCUK MB DAT 18. The ;, rebel” sojourners at Old PointComfi rt most of whom hare been encaged there in the United States Ordinance Department, w re startled and surprised Sunday morning by the promulgation of an order requiring them to leave the place. One hour wa» given them to depart, and as no steamer was at hand they passed the night in HamptoD, and yesterday morning “run the gauntlet” to the wharf a' Old Point, and took the steamer to Richmond. ■They numbered between forty and fifty m»p, many of whom left their baggage behind in their hurry. The agent of the National Ex press and Transportation Company, located at the Point, beingin the “rebel” category, un able to bring otf bis office property, turned over his keys and the contents of the offics gen erally to the agent of the Adams Express Com pany, who happened to be a Northern man. The reason assigned for this summary order was a report that a plot was in progress to rescue Mr. Davis. Upon what amount of truth tbis report was based we have no means of ascertaining, as the whole procedure w»e in accordance with an order from the War De partment at Washington, which, it is to be presumed, acted upon secret evidence, the par ticulars of which it has not yet thought prorer to divulge. Isa pursuance of the details of itn or( j Pl - the guard on duty at and around lhe fort was trebled, and the bridges over the moat were drawn. The “exiles,” who reached the city last night ,Tenor* that the restrictions ui on the privileges of Da™ had been increased, and that now he wag not even permitted to speak to the Lieutenant oi the guard placed over him. _ It is difficult to conceive how the Umfed States authorities could be induced to give BY STOCKTON & C 0 dence to any such report aB that, irom which all this sensation basjieen produced. Ts tliere cSn.bc any truth in it it reflects seriously upon the sanity of euoh us may be concerned, but it will find few. rational men to believe it in the Sou-th or elsewhere. The whole affair has the appearance of a Radical design against the South, in which the au horiiies nave been duped by hired agents, and a sensation, preju dicial to the restoration of oonfidence betweea the two sections, created for party purposes and effect.
