Pending tho proceedings Mr. Gaston joined the lllth Regiment, of which he is now paymaster, and is at tho seat of war. Tho Sheriff, without bringing Gaston before the Court, allow, ed him to go, and In return to the writ answered as fol.

lows "I return the within process unexecuted for the reason that tho defendant within named, Albert G. Gaston, is exempt from arrest, he having been mustered info the actual service of the United States. A. F. CAM1 I1EI.1.." A motion was then made to punish tlio Sheriff for contempt in not obeying the writ, and on this motion It was contcnccd on the part of the Sheriff that Gaston being in tho service of the V.

S. was not liable for arrest for debt; to this it was answered that alimony was not in tho nature of a debt, and, that Gaston by not paying tho amount decreed by Court was in contempt; It was further contended lhat Gaston being an officer, and the statute of exemption not applying to officers he was liable even for arrest for debt. It was also held as against the Sheriff that he should have not undertaken to decide the question for himself but should have brought Gaston before the Court, and that therefore the return was insufficient. On the part of the Sheriff it was held that if tho return was insufficient, the remedy was not by attachment, but lhat action in the case is tlio proper remedy. The Court Decided the Sheriff to be in contempt and fined him $45.

Incidentally it is decided that Gaston was liable to arrest so far as the papers in tills case show. 'J'heTeopJe ex. rel. James Aintjleyv. Esan' ix Swift Ordered that attachment issue against defendant.

A few moments previous to drill lie was practising the manual in the drummers' iiuarters, and in coming to a charge bayonet his hand struck the hammer of is piece, forcing it down although he says it was hulf cocked and discharging it, the ball striking Clarence McKenzie in the back, passing through and out at the stomach, and finally striking against a hrlck wall with such force as to break out part ot the brick; he lived some two hours and was sensible, though part of the time unable to speak. The news Hew through the camp as all bad news does like wildfire, and soon a crowd collected around the (pinners of Co.

MI7.ITAKY 1'fXEHAL. The remains of Clarence MeKcnzic, accidentally shot by one of his comrades at Annapolis, on Tuesday last, were yesterday afternoon con. veyed to their last resting place in Greenwood Cemetery, with such demonstrations of public respect and sympathy as are rarely exhibited save when some prominent citizen has closed a career of exalted usefulness. He was borne to the grave by the friends that he died with, Capt. Balsdon of Co.

to which the deceased was attached, and such xother members of the Ultli Ilegiment as are now here, forming guard of honor and escort, with arms reversed, lmillled drums, and colors draped. The funeral cortege set out from the resddcpce of the deceased's parents, in Liberty street, between three and four o'clock, and proceeded down Concord street to St. John's Church, where the coillh was removed from the hearse and reverentially laid down in iront of the pulpit, while the Dr. Guion read the funeral service and paid an eloquent tribute to the heroism of the youthful deceased. The edifice was crowded, principally by ladies, some of whom placed flowers gently upon the collin and withheld not the tribute of their tears.

Many clergymen and other gentlemen were also present, tome in citizen's dress and others in uniform, and so dense was the crowd in and around the building that it was next to an impossibility to get in or out. The children of Public School No. 1, and of the Congregational Sabbath School, to hich the deceased had been iu attendance, to bid a long farewell to the friend of their early days. After the funeral service the face of the drummer boy was exposed to view, and many were affected as they cast a last fond look upon the pale face of one cut off iu the morniug of life thus prematurely. The body was at length borne to the hearse by the soldiers of his company who brought it to the city, when the pro cession re formed, and set out for the Cemetery, a mourning coach and long train of carriages following the hearse, four drummers rolled the dead march iu lront of the cortege, and over An Aggravated Case ol Robbery.

Owen Maguire was placed on trial to answer an indict, ment of robbery in the first degree. Ellen Gadsbey, the widow of a porter Iioubo keeper, who did business otNo. 30 Atlantic street, was tho complaining witness. From the testimony it appears that on the ISth October last, Maguire in company with the notorious James Tracy went into the Mrs. Gadsbey's place and called for two glasses of ale.

in payment Maguire offered a $3 bill on the St. Mary's Bank of Columbus, Georgia. Mrs. Gads bey sent her servant girl out for change of the bill. She returned in a very short time, handed the bill back and said it was a counterfeit.

Both the fellows became abusive Maguire wanted to know what Mrs. Gadsbey would say if ho broke all the tumblers, and in taking a segar, inquired what she would say if he took all of them. Mrs. Gadsley said lhat though poor sho was not ungenerous and he might have them all. AVhen the bill came in a Mr.

Stephens who was standing in the bar, and who seemed anxious for peace, said, "Never mind, boys, take a drink with nic." But ihey were not to be After a display of further rowdyism, Maguire seized a tumbler and struck Mrs. Gadsbey with it in the ing two wounds which bled profusely. Tracy also seized a tumbler and threw at her, but it missed her head, and broke in pieces on the pump behind her. When the par tics first came in it was a little after o'clock in the evening unaccountable as it may seem, they carried on their rowdy conduct up to half past eight. Mrs.

Gadsbey got a sponge and with theaid of others got the blood off her lace. The two rowdies went into the back room upset the stove, broke the chairs, and insisied on getting some money. One of Ihcm said they should have five dollars, lilrs. Gadsbey said she had no a small sum which was in the drawer. They said they knew sho had plenty of money.

Maguire sat down on "her lap after the wound had been given, and tried his persuasive powers letting down his claim to $3, and among other things ti lling her tbat if she gave them the money she would be nothing out, as they would bring custom to her house that would more than make up for it. Finally Mrs. Gadsbey gave them a quarter of a dollar each, and they left, or rather were put out by a policeman. Mrs. Gads bev swore positively that this money was giventhroufh fear that she loarcd for her life at the hands of Magufre and Tracy, and that in soliciting money they said they would have her life if they did not get some.

Wlieie'ieere the polkeT is the question naturally sug gesud by Ibo fact lhat two rowdies in the most public thoroughfare in the citv were enabled for three hours in the eady part of evening to commit such outrages. 3'rom the evidence il appears that ilaguire's father is a policeman, and that he iu company with another policeman, was sent for and came there and put the two fellows out, but did nothing more. One of the policemen swore that he did not arrest the fellows because Mrs. (ladsby did not make a complaint against them, though lie swore that she said she feared her life would not be safe if she did srt. The row during its progress came within the knowledge of three or four policemen.

One of them was stopped ia the street bv a woman who told him that there were rowdies killing a woman iu Mrs. Gadsby's place; he went there, saw thecut on Mrs. Gads by, saw that she was bleeding from it, saw the two fellows there but made no arrest becauscMrs. Gadsby made no formal complaint. Judge Garrison very severely rebuked the policemen for their conduct: he told them that they were entirely ignorant of their duty or remiss in its performance when tncy saw that a breach of the peace bait been committed and did not arrest the violators of the iaw as it was clearly their duty to do.

Either for friendship for Maguire or the policeman, or fear of the two rowdies, the police throughout retained an armed neutrality and carried out a policy of "masterly inactivity." For the defence lliere was no testimony offered. Mr. Brit ton defended the prisoners, lie said it was no part of his duty as counsel to deny that an offence had been committed, but ho argued that the offence was not robbery in the first degree, as charged in lhe indictment. If a man went into a private house, and by threats extorted money, it would be clear, hard, cold blooded robberv. But he asked the jury, as men of the world, to consider the facts in this case, and judge of them by their own experience.

Here is a porter house, There inducement is held out for men of the class of life of the accused to visit. It is before election time; these parties comoin more or less under the influence of liquor; they drink there they commit an assault he did not deny that, and he did not desire to screen them from the punishment of their offence Ihey then told the complaining witness that if she gave them money they would make it up to her by bringing others of their class to drink, nnd it would be to her advantage to let them have it, and she did. He held that the ends of justice would be served by punishing the accused for assault and battery, and that the public prosecutor ought to be satislied with the punishment it was in the power of the Court to inflict for that offence. The District Attorney read the statute defining the offence of robbery as the faking of money from a person under fear of life, or great bodily harm, and argued that Mrs. Gadsby testified that sho would never have given them money but lor fear of her life, or of great boddy harm.

After a succinct charge from Judge Garrison, the jury retired, and niter absence of over an hour, returned a verdict of guilty as charged. The Court thereupon sentenced the prisoner to ttn years in Slate's Prison, the lowest term allowed by statute. Mnguiro and Traccy both gave bail for their appearance when the day for trial came both were missing. Two or three weeks ago Maguire was arrested in New York, where it appeared ho had enlisted and was about to go to the war. Maguire it appears did not dosire to go as a high private ho ran for some office in his company and succeeded in getting elected, but his antagonist did not take his defeat kindly, and knowing that Maguire was under indictment hero he gave such information as led to his arrest.

Tracey absconded with Maguire they parted company in New Orleans (Maguire says), and this is the last that has been heard of him. The absence of both the parties is a boon to South Brooklyn. Maguire is an able young fellow, who might have done infinitely better than to merit a half life time of incarceration in prison at the outset of his career. Mrs. Gadsby is a middle aged woman.

Tier husband's place was as noted for good ale as Tracey and Maguire for bad conduct. manslaughter. John Murphy, a rather vindictive looking man of about thirty years of age, was tried for manslaughter in the third degree, in having on the Sth of April last caused the death of Miles Eoddin, by stabbing him in the abdomen with a pair of shears. From tho evidence the following facts appeared: The accused is a tailor, and lied at No. 3 Willow street, where be worked at his trade he also kept a little "red eye" for sale, exposin" the bottles in the room next to that in whieh ho worked' Miles Boddin and a man named John Murray, who is widely known under the cognomen of "Mexico," went into the place or tho accused on the date mentioned, apparently for refreshments.

In going in, two dogs belonging to the accused harked, and tho men kicked them. Murphy came out and asked them what they kicked the dogs for, observing lhat a man that would striko bis dog would strike himself. One of the men asked what Murphy had to say about it, and after a little altercation, "Mexico," held the accused and Roddin struck him on the forehead with his hand. At this point the evidrjnee was conflicting. One witnesses swore that Boddin and "Mexico" went out of the house but tho weight of the testimony seemed to show that after Murphy had been struck he went into his room, seized a pair of shears and a pistol (the latter entirely useless,) and dine out with those weapons, and with the shears open inflicted two wounds on lioddin.

A policeman was sent for, and, with the aid of "Mexico," Murphy was arrested. Kodding was conveyed to the Long Island College Hospital, where he died eloven days afterwards, from inflammation of the bowels, caused by a cicatrico left by the wound. This was the medical testimony of the physician of the hospital. Dr. Van Zandt, the resident phjsieian of King's County Jail, testified that the wounds could not have got to this stage in eleven days that the intermediate changes of the wounds inflammation, supperation, would take a longer time than that mentioned by the doctor of the hospital.

The defence made a point of this, and argued that the death of Boddin was not made out, as attributable to these wounds, by the prosecution. The evidence as to the character of the parties showed that Boddin and "Mexico" belonged to a gang known as the "South Ferry Boys a set or fellows of unenviable notoriety for drinking aud rowdyism. Several men sworo that the accused was a very quiet man but the policemen who do duty in tho neighborhood of his residence swore lhat they saw Murphy about a year ago with a knife in his hand, in a terrible passion, and endeavor ng to get out to attack some one in the street, with whom lie had some difficulty. Tlio best explanation defendant's counsel could give of this was, that the accused was drunk at the time. Tho jury found the accused guilty of manslaughter in lhe fourth degree, and the Court sentenced him to two yearo1 incarceration in the State Prison.

Hon. Kd. T. Wood appeared for defendant, ami the District Attorney lor the people. THE ATTKMl'TEU Henry l'lunkett, who was charged with attempted rape on a child of eleven yens oil, and found guilty' of assault ami battery, was sentenced to tho Penitentiary for sixty days, and ordered lo pay a fine of $25, or stand committed a further term of (JO days, the drat part of tho sentence to bo suspended in consideration of tlio payment of the The culprit in this case is a man of over forty years of age, and has a wife and family, to which fact the leniency of the Court may be probably due.

I.AI1V. Bernard Mullen was indicted for hnrglary. It was charged lhat on the of March last, tho accused entered the house of John Conway of Park avenue and Navy street, and after breaking tho lock oftho door, stole therefrom one coat and two shins of the value of $2Q. Officer Kelly on the same night arrested the prisoner, with one of the shirts in his this last was tho chief evidence against him. The jury, alter having been out several hours disagreed, and was discharged.

City Court EErOKE JlinOE r.EVXOLDS. SHERIFF IN CONTEMPT THE KHiUT OF MILITIA utTICEKS TO EXEMPTION FltOM AltllEST. The facts in the case of Agnes A. Gaston vs. Albert (i.

Gaston, have been before reported. For tho proper understanding of tills case It is necessary to say that Mrs. Gaston sued for a divorce; ponding the trial alimony was allowed by the Judge of this Mr. Gaston did not pay the amount ordered, or any amount, ami an attachment was issued against him, directing tho Sheriff to hold said Gaston until he paid the amount directed by the Courl. MlK Gaston was arrested by Deputy Sheriff SATURDAY EVENING, 15.

The War and the Newspaper Correspondents, The tiovernment, it appears, is about to take charge of the telegraph, and prohibit the publication of all war news which has not first undergone a supervision by censors appointed for the purpose. The reason which is alleged as constituting the necessity for this interference, is to be found in the indiscreet publication of intended movements of our troops, which frustrated the designs of the Government, and sometimes rendered a change of plan necessary. The fault ot iuch improper revelations does not rest on the correspondents of the newspapers, hut with the ciliccrs who impart the information. Those who do so are guilty of a breach of duty, and ought to be punished with a severity that would teach them discretion. The officers who impart such information cither sell it to the correspondents, cr furnish it on the implied or expressed understanding that they will receive in return the cheap fume which newspaper puil'ery caa bestow.

The ambition of many militia (lenerals to at the head of serried columns of newspaper type, is generally intense, and they will reveal any fact within their knowledge to acquire such lustre. You can tell exactly howany militu ollicer stands with the reporters, by reading the war dispatches. Ii any name is constantly kept before the public, surrounded by a halo of complimentary adjectives, it is morally certain that he is a jolly good fellow, free and ea.iy with the reporters, ready to make a free interchange of ucrus sul cuciuaiis, ana is nana nana with the sl hand lraternity. Take as an example the Hon. Mr.

Van AV'yck. When the war commenced Van enlisted as a private, showing that unusual patriotic devotion which displays itself in sublime humility and is proud to serve in the meanest capacity. Ambition might lure some to the tented field, but the double distilled purity of Tan "VVyek's patriotism could be open to no such suspicion. "U'hat feats of arms he has accomplished the public is ignorant of, probably owing to the modesty which accompanies the other lofty qualities of Van Wyck. But we do bear of him almost daily in other capacities than that of a private soldier.

We reacrin the sensation dispatches every morning of the Hon. Van Wyck b'jing here and there and everywhere, doing good by stealth ana blushing to find it Same. Now he is making up packages of other people's contributions for the soldiers, anon he is burning up the government to a more vigorous policy, then he is franking letters for the soldier. and in a word is enjoying that demagogue notoriety for which he seems to hunger and thirst. All this comes of understanding how to secure the good graces of the reporters If the government wishes to secure a decorou reticence in regard to war movements, it ought to begin by checking the bombastic vanity of its own oiliciais and ostentatious supporters.

If Captain Bobadil intends to besiege a windmill or capture a mare's nest, he must rush to our own correspondent and notify him of the fact in order mat the woild may resound next morning with the hero's fame. The publication of the item may prevent the possibility of the achievment, and then the government pounces on the correspondent. Bet ter "dry up" the fountain head by eourt iuaishaling all garrulous bablers. The idea of a censorship of the press smacks too much of Austrian or tactics, to be favorably regarded. The pople have a right to all legiti mate intelligence of war operations, and none else can te had unless through the misconduct of the otliccrs to whom orders from headquarters transmitted.

Improper revelations may he prevented by supervising the telegraph, but ofli cial incompetence may also be. screened and permitted to go on iu making costly sacrifices. It appears that Senator Douglas died a bankrupt. An appeal is put forward by his friends in Illinois in behalf of his wife and children, to raise a fund for their maintenance. His child by his second vfe died, and we understood that his iirst wife's children inherited a compete ace from their mother, but it appears that all has been squandered.

According to the appeal, "he died "not only poor, but has left to his wife and ehil "dren a legacy of debt. The only unencumbered "piece of land a small tract, less than three "acres of which he was ever possessed, was, "when he died, the property of his widow. At the "request of the people of Illinois, she surrendered "his remains to the State, and with them gave "that piece of land for his interment, ask "ing of the people only that she may be allowed near the grave in which he reposes. This "lot in which now rest his ashes, is in the centre 'of the beautiful grove known as his long chosen "and favorite home. The surrounding portion of "the tract is covered with mortgages.

His chil "tlren, his widow and his countrymen to approach his grave must do so by permission of "the sheriff, his creditors and strangers." To prevent this necessity and clear off the in. euiubrances on this piece of property is the object of the appeal. The last campaign is said to have cost Douglas over 100,000. A great part of this was lent by Kepublicans as the candidacy of 3lr. Douglas ensured the success of Lincoln.

The New York Boob asserts that his creditors compelled him to make the speech which he delivered in favor of the war policy of the Administration, under the coercion of the monied indebtedness under which he was placed. What truth there may be in the statement we are of touise unable to say. Contrary to expectation, the Western Reserve the well known Abolition' corner of the State of Ohio, has thus far responded but feebly to the call for troops. Thanks to the efforts of Senator ade and others, who endeavored to explain and sugar over this unlooked for dilatoriness in various ways, Governor Dennison has been pre yemingthe mustering into the service of the Muted Mates of regiments raised in other quar. tersof the State, i order to give the Abolition corner a chance.

The War Department has be come tired of this, and the Secretary has dis patched a letter to the Governor of Ohio re' questing him not to wait any longer for dilatory citizens, but to receive the regiments from Cincinnati, already organized, drilled and equipped and clamorous for the war.

The discovery of Holloway's Ointment dispensed with the necessity ot the knife, which frequently endangered the life ot tho patient. Thousands of females have been cured of cancer In the breast by the medicating action of tho Ointment, anil their lives spared to their families.

The salve follows tho cancer in Its tortuous winding, and I imperceptibly but thoroughly and painlessly eradicates It from the system. 1M Pills cleanse and purify the blood. Sold by all Druggist? at 23c, 62c, and 1 per box or pot, mis ladies of Annapolis, who supplied us with flowers, was very prettily laid out and looked quite natural, his countenance having changed but little. During the niln it was packed' in an ice box, and this morning sent on to Brooklyn with an escort of four men under command of Capt. Balsdon, iu whose company the drummer was on listed.

As the collin was taken from the drummer's quartern, preceded by lhe balance of the drum corps and a tilir playing lhe slow and solemn tune or the Dead March, the oilier companies of lhe regiment fell into line and followed it to the cars. The music was beautiful, yet sad, and many a man who would not flinch on the field of battle shed tears over the remains of poor Clarence. He was the smallest in the corps and liked by every one who knew him, being well behaved, always in good spirits, and ready and willing to do whatever was asked of him, his comrade drummers and the drum major were very muchnfrected: they could not have felt worse had he been an own brother. A brother of his went on the body and probably will remain in Brooklyn, as I understand this is the second bov his parents have lost wiUUs a short time and they prefer lo keep the remaining one home. His drum, has been tastily hung with crape and wreaths of flowers out of respect by his comrades.

Another of Capt. Burden's (Co. D) men acdilewallv discharged his pistol this morning, fortunately hurting no one, another man of lie same company fainted in the ranks veBterday eve. A strange fatality seems to liang over this companv, as all accidents so far but one, have occurred amongst them. Col.

Smith has issued an order forbidding any loaded musket to be carried into (uarters under any circumstances whatever, and that all pistols aud revolvers must be delivered by the men to their commanding officer to be retained by him until further orders from "head quarters. The men have all delivered up their pistols willinitlv. Another order allows each man three rounds of ba'll cartridge for target practice, to be used by company each day. General Crooke, Quartermaster Mooney, Dr. fllu Alister, Messrs.

Lott, Mills, Bergen, and several other Brooklynites arrived in the train this noon. Weather pleasant but very warm. Health of the troops very good. I wiU write again in a few days. Hastily, Willow.

what coveexor is it.vi.vo to no. Washington, D. C. Juno 10, 1SG1. To the Sditor of the Brooklyn Eagle I promised in my last communication to write more fully on my first day off.

That privilege having been extended to me to day, I embrace the only good opportunity I may have for a long time of communicating to you. Indeed, it would seem Irom present interferences by Gov. "Morgan that we are not to stay here long. I understand that he is in Washington now with the avowed purpose of having us disbanded not because we are not needed not because we have not the lighting material, the necessary equipments and all that, but simply because we came without bis consent. Oh! how magnanimous: how patriotic! how chivalrous la in chief of the forces of the Empire State.

The country may slide, but i'ere must be no Blight to his high prerogative. We are yet at Camp Wool; some few sick, but not so many as when I last wrote you. We are not onlv improving in health, but in tactics, and a few weeks more will make us, if not all that our officers desire to see us, at least all that ought to be expected. Company was yesterday honored by an invitation to the house a Mr. Lewis in the neighborhood of our encampment.

After sufficient drilling to give us an appetite, we were marched iato the mansion of our hospitable host, where a collation was prepared for us that would do honor to any party, and to which we paid our addresses with a gusio equalled only by UTose who lmvc for a time been conftneu to camp life. The best part of all was the warm greeting and eheortul smiles of "he ladies, fa number of whom were present) reminding us of home and the loved ones we left behind us. A number of songs were sung, increasing the hilarity of the part; the whole winding up by each member of the company signing his name, or (which would sound beticr) leaving his autograph. God bless the Messrs. Lewis, father and son, witli all thsit pertains to them.

Co. 1) of the 1 Hh will hold this reception green in their memories whether upon the battle field oi surrounded bv the sweeter associations of home. They iro having a'very unhappy time in the 9lh regiment. A number of men were detailed from our regiment and from the Connecticut and and other regtmcnls to go over to the quarters ot" the 9tli, only ljo miles from us. This was yesterday.

I heard what the trouble was, but ttierc are so many reports that I cannot feel justified in making any statement in relation to the matter. We are holding ourselves in readiness, some think we will certainly bo ordered somewhere this week. Wo are all willing. We would rather have better muskets, however, before wo start, and we expect lo get them. Fellow citizens of thocity of Brooklyn take care of our families while we try to sustain untarnished the honor of our flag.

We hope to see you again, but if the fortuneof war should consign us a southern grave the thought of what you h've'done for us and what you arc still doing will prove a halm sweet as lhatofGillead. W'. T. V. VR1VAIK llt.ACK, 1 THE 14T1I EEdlMEXT.

To Hit Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Having heard that a story is in circulation about the city that Doctor Homiston, the surgeon of the 14'h ruent, had sent a bill of to the family of private Black, for extra services, and knowing the ridiculous rumor to be false in every particular, I feel it my duty to contradict it. Dr. Homiston, and those connected with him of the 14th Hegiment, have done everything in their power to restore Black to health, and made him as comfortable as Eossible under his afflictions they have uninterruptedly een at his bed side all the time since the accident, and no intimation has ever been made to his faniilv or friends that the Doctor wanted any compensation "other than that allowed by the department. In justice to the Doctor and his assistants, please give this a place in the Brooklyn Eaoi.e, from one Who Knows. Tor the Eagle.

GOV. MOBGAX JIJl'T. DAVIS. If it be asked who is Davis' best friend, it may safely be answered, Gov. Morgan.

Washington is now in danger for want of troops. Twenty thousand in this neighborhood have been waiting to go forward, and many of those who have gone, especially from this city, have gone in opposition to hiB will. With three millions at the disposal of him and his committee, thousands arc waiting for articles of clothing, arms, and every warlike preparation. Could Davis have a better supporter If Washington he captured the blame will rest on Gov. Morgan.

J. To the Editor of the Broolhjn Eagle Sin In last evening's issue, under the head of "Drowned man identified," a paragraph appeared which is totally unfounded in truth, relative to the drowning of Anthony Callaghan on Coentio's Beef. In justice to us who were at work with him at the time, we ask you to publish the following statement Callaghan carelessly jumped from a boat on to a timber, slipped off, dragging with him the undersigned John Mead, into the river, who endeavored to savo him, but only with difficulty extricated himself. The rest of us undersigned were at the time on board the sloop, but. at a great risk to ourselves succeeded in recovering tlio boat which Callaghan had left, in order to help him, but ho had unfortunately sunk.

The tide was running strong flood hen the accident happened. "Wc keenly feel the loss of our companion, and cannot silently bear the imputation ol'making no effort to save him. Joseph Bhkwsteb, foreman. Keigiitlev, engineer. John Meah.

A Pen Poktait of the Fmnch Emi'huss. EkmahkaMjB Wokk of ArtT. Our readers on several occasions have been informed, through onr columns, of the remarkable skill in the can graphic and portrait art of Mr: David Davidson of this city. He has just finished another of his wonderful productions. It consists of a likeness of Empress Eugenie, the wife of Napoleon, a lady who in point of brilliancy, beauty and character, is an honor to her sex.

It is the most elaborate and beautiful production tho renowned artist has yet achieved. Tho portrait and its setting is composed entirely of microscopic letters. The portrait itself is of full length, and is a striking likeness. It is composed of the chapters IS, and 14, making thirty eight duodecimo pages, of the "Public and private life of Na polcn, Kniperor of the French," by Smucker. To enable the reader to somewhat further understand the great labor involved in the work, wo would state that there are upwards of 10,000 words in it The letters are formed by tho original white surface of the papej, the interstices bemg filled witi! pen work as delicate as the lincFt, lines ot a steel engraving.

Tho likeness of lhe Empress is said to be excellent, and will be tho next stcamship. IMm Alius. ISAAC BURT1S L. B. PACKARD W.

the open grave, where the eoflia was deposited, three rounds of musketry were fired and this was the last of brave Clarence McKenzie, cutoff in his thirteenth yearywitlt a brilliant future opening upon him. His brother, a drummer iu the same regiment, was present, and deeply felt the loss of his comrade. One little incident will bear mention. The lit. tie drummer had a little dog a terrier.

AVhen he jeft the home of his parents to go wherever the regiment was ordered, he patted the favorite, and now, said he, "You must be good until I come back." Little did he think then that he would come hack a lifeless corpse. When the body was brought to the house the little dog appeared sensible of the calamity that had befallen his master, and moped about disconsolate and to all appearances oppressed with grief. He went about the house slowly, calmly, shyly, as if fearing to make the least noise, and when the body was removed to the church he followed, maintaining the same demure deportment and when the remains were introduced into the hearse, he followed, and when the drums beat the mournful funeral march he kept pace with the soldiers and accompanied them to the last resting place of the little hero. He looked into the grave, as if to examine the nature of the place, and when the volley was tired he retired, but as soon as soon as the cortege left, the little dog revisited the grave, and there he remained until three o'clock this morning. Worn out by want of food the animal returned to his home, scratched at the door and was let in, presenting a most depressed and woeful appearance.

Hisgrielis so great that the family do not believe that he will long survive his master. The elder brother of the little drummer, who is also a drummer in Co. will return to Annap. olis on Monday with Capt. Balsdon.

Mr. Van Brunt is Aid. Van Brunt's brother, which may help to explain II. W. efforts at whitewashing the parties entrusted with the duty of furnishing uniforms to the Regiment.

It is a notorious fact that the regiment is actually "out at the elbows," and in great need of an outfit so much so, that one of them at least had to borrow a decent uniform to attend the funeral of Gasar Miesel, at Greenwood Cemetery.
