He had also ordered the disbursing officers to disburse their funds, and not transfer them to persons who did not hold commissions from the President and were not under bonds; and he further ordered that hereafter all contracts should be made by the regu - hr disbursing officers of the army. General Fre mont was also informed that payment would not be made to officers appointed by him. From Missouri we have a doubtful report, under date the 14th, that a battle took place on the 27th ult., between the Kansas troops, under Montgo mery and Jamison, and the advance guard of M'Culloch and some State Guards, under Chenault. The battle commenced near Shanghai, in Barton county. The Confederates were driven back with considerable loss, and pursued some 40 miles. Mont gomery then fell back on Greenfield. An expedition was being organised in California to proceed overland, under the command of General Sumner, to the western part of Texas. A despatch from Richmond, via Baltimore, reports that the steamer Nashville ran the blockade at Charleston on the 12th, with evSenator Mason as Minister to England, and John Slidell as Minister to France, with their suites. The Norfolk, Examiner of the 14th contains a despatch from New Orleans of the 12th, stating that a naval engagement took place at the head of the Passes on the night of the 11th, lasting an hour, and was afterwards renewed. It also publishes the following despatch : " FORT JACKSON, Oct. 12.—Last night I attacked the blockaders with my little fleet. I succeeded, after a short struggle, in driving them all aground on the South-west Pass bar, except the Preble, which I sunk. I captured a prize from them, and after they were fast in the sand I peppered them well. Tnere were no casualties on our side. It was a complete success. (Signed) " HOLLINS." A despatch from New Orleans, dated the 13th, says " that the force of the Federal fleet was 40 guns and nearly 1,000 men; while the little Con federate mosquito fleet was 16 guns and 300 men. It is reported that our iron steamer sunk the Preble with her iron prow. Commander Rollins arrived last night." The steamship Champion had arrived at New York from Aspinwall with the California mails of the sth, and 1,011,707 dole, in specie. By this arri val we learn that the Ospina party in Panama had gone so far as to inaugurate active hostilities in the streets of the city by firing upon the Government sentinels. They took a strong position in a house favourably situate for defence, and for a time bade defiance to the behests of the Government ; but finally, being few in numbers, and failing to procure certain support which they had counted upon, they surrendered, and quiet was again restored. From Bogota there is no news of importance. In several of the States of the New-Granadian Confederacy, however, there were symptoms of trouble, and it seemed to be extremely doubtful that Mosquera would find his position of Provisional President one without difficulties. The Conservatives in Cauca, Antioquia, and elsewhere were gathering in formid able numbers, and would require prompt measures to overcome them. Mosquera was taking steps to increase his army to upwards 0ft9,000 strong, and a portion of this force was intended to operate ex clusively against these malcontents. Via Havannah we have a report from Venezuela that General Paez had been officially called upon to resign his command of the army into the hands of the Government. The veteran General at once acceded to the demand, expressing his determina tion at the same time to leave for a foreign country as soon as the Government would be ready to liqui date his demands against the public Treasury. In resigning his command, General Paez addressed a touching letter to the Government, in which he ex pressed a hope that posterity would judge him justly. JAPAN. We have news from Japan up to the 25th August. The British Legation was still at 'Yeddo, but it was understood that Mr. Alcock and M. de Bellecourt were about to take up their temporary residence at Yokuhama, pending the construction of two new residences to be built upon a site in the neighbour hood of the recent Legations, but capable of being strongly fortified. The Japanese Government have agreed to construct the works necessary for placing these buildings in a state of defence. In the mean time, the British Legation has worn all the aspect of a place in a state of siege. Five hundred Japanese soldiers and 30 Marines from the flagship Imperiense form the permanent guard, and three separate lines of palisades have been constructed round the temple which has hitherto formed the abode of the British legation. No further attempt had been made upon the lives of the inmates, though a general feeling of insecu rity prevailed. The members of the Japanese . Go vernment are said to be little less unpopular with a certain political party than the foreigners. an at tempt to murder one of the members of the Ca binet having lately failed. A general alarm was created by a supposed attack upon the American Legetion just before the mail left. Two shots were fired by the Japanese Guard, but the assailants, if they existed at all, foiled in their attempt at a surprise, made their escape. The arrival of the Admiral had created great satisfaction, and was likely to produce a good effect. The Imperieuse had been anchored as near Yeddo as possible. The firm attitude taken up by Mr. Alcock, who had remained for nearly two months after the attack on the Legation, was also calculated to prove to the opposition party in Japan that they were not likely to gain their object by the employment of violence and intimidation. It had been reported at Yokohama that two official inter- Tiews of a confidential and, therefore, unusual character, had token place at Yeddo, at which the presence of the Government spies had been dipensed with, and the parties present consisted only of the two Japanese First Ministers of the Council on the one side, and Mr. Alcock, Admiral Hope, and Mr. Oliphaut, on the other. The result of their inter view has not transpired, but it was understood to have been in th e hi g h es t d egree sat i s f actory. M r. Oliphant proceeds to England by this mail, charged with despatches and a letter from his Majesty the Tykoon to the Queen, h av i ng re f erence to the pre sent critical state of affairs. The Ringdove had come through the inland sea to Nagasaki, having on board Admiral Hope. At Nagasaki, the Ad miral shifted his flag to the Encounter, and both vessels proceeded to Tsusima, an island on the coast of Corea. It was the Admiral's intention to visit Hakodadi and then rejoin the Imperieuse at Yeddo. The Odin, Captain Lord John Hay, had left Naga saki for Yeddo. The Actaeon, with the gunboa ts Leven, Algerine, and Dove, were surveying in the Bay of Yeddo. TEE DUBLIN OUTRAGE. TRIAL OF CURRAN.—THIRD DAY. DUBLIN, MONDAY.

The Crown will indict Agnes Wiles for perjury at the next Commission ; several witnesses examined to-day were bound over to prosecute. 71101VEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS, CITY, Two o'CLocx.

" Sir,—The erroneous belief is too generally entertained in this country that we American cotton planters have com bined to hold back cur present corps for the purpose of starving the cotton manufacturers of England and France, and forcing these countries, by the pressure of a cotton famine, to side with the Confederate States. " I, as a planter, assure you, for myself (and, as far as an extensive acquaintance among other planters enables me to judge), that no such Machiavellian motive actuates us. " With your permission I will state succinctly our true ' reasons for retaining our crops on our plantations : " 1. In consequence of the blockade we'hava not suffi cient gunny bagging to cover more than a small portion of our crops. It being a very bulky article is the more readily excluded by the blockade. We are thus compelled to store our cotton in the seed, and in this state it will best be pre served uninjured for years should our enemies prevent its earlier shipment. , " 2. While the cotton is retained on the plantations we are at no expense for storage or fire insurance at extrava gant ' war rates.' In the event of the country being devas tated by the Northern forces, they cannot visit each plan tation or carry off unpacked cotton. " 3. There exists adequate storage accommodation but for a very small portion of the crops at all the ports toge ther, and the existence of a large quantity at any port or ports would be a positive temptation to the enemy to at tempt its capture and confiscation, involving not only a heavy loss to us, but bringing devastation on the cities and ruin to our friends residing there. The seizure the 10,000 bales (old crop) now lying at New o.rleans, is o of ne of the reported objects of the Northern expedition, which was fitting out for that destination. " 4. The cotton factors, many of whom have heavy claims on the planters, have requested their debtors to re tain their produce on their plantations during the war, as they are unwilling to risk it in their keeping at the shipping ports.--I am, sir, your obedient servant, "AN AMERICAN COTTON PLANTER."

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. The cases to -day were of a very marked character, chiefly before the Registrars. In the case of Dodd, of Clerkenwell, &c., architect, assig nees were chosen, and Mr. Buchanan, Basinghall-street, was appointed solicitor to the estate. Mr. Perry, clerk to Mr. Buchanan, then applied for a day to be fixed for the last examination and discharge card (hitherto certificate). Mr. Hazlitt consulted the other registrars, and said that the discharge was to be granted at the same meeting as that for the last examination, or at such other time as the Court might direct, no day, therefore, would be fixed for the dis charge, but application must be made on proving. One creditor only proving, and choosing himself assig • nee, Mr. Hazlitt—Then I suppose the creditor does not call on the assignee to give security. (Laughter.) IN RE RICHARDS. A petition was opened by Mr. Buchanan against this bankrupt, a grocer at Margate, who surrendered and ob tained protection. IN RE GLASS-EXTENSIVE FAILURE, A meeting was held for proof of debts and choice of assig nees in the case of this bankrupt, a chemical druggist, Brandon-street, Walworth. Assignees were chosen, and Mr. Wells, Moorgate- street, was appointed solicitor. The debts are stated to be between £6,000 and 7,000; assets small. IN RE WELLING. This bankrupt was described as of Cleveland-street, Fitz coy .square, oilman, and this was a meeting for choice of assignees. Mr. Weston, jun., from the office of Mr. Wells, repre sented the petitioning creditor, who was chosen assignee. PETITIONS ITNI)ER THE NEW ACT. Mr. Drew presented several petitions under the new act, but there were no cases for discharge from custody. Lx P. NICHOLSON AND NORTH-THE GREAT FAILURE IN THE TALLOW TRADE. This was a meeting for the last examination of these bankrupts, who had carried on an extensive business as tallow brokers in Bishopsgate. The debts are stated at £56,000, assets from £3,000 to £4,000. Messrs. Hart Brothers and Hayles had been engaged by the assignees to investigate the accounts, and now put in a report extending over 30 brief sheets. Mr. Registrar Hazlitt thereupon ordered an adjournment for consideration of the report. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Mr. Sergeant Wheeler.) TWO 13IILLOCIIS IN A DWELLING-HOUSE. CURIOUS CASE, BACON V. ISRAEL. This was an action against defendant, who is a butcher, for detaining furniture. Plaintiff said that upon a certain day two bullocks, be longing to the defendant, broke into her dwelling-house, and committed great havoc in her property and furniture. They broke chairs, a table, and ewer with bason, added to which was a washstand, taken away by defendant, who had paid ss. into court. Defendant's son said that this was a case of extortion. The fact was that the poor people decoyed the bullocks into their houses. (Laughter.) They also put furniture into the passage through which the bullocks passsed so that ther property might be broken. His Honour—What for ? Witness—To obtain damages from us for their trumpery old goods. Mrs. Bacon came to me and said she would not take one penny less than £1 19s. llid. I can produce the washstand. His Honour said that plaintiff should have sued for damages, and not for detention of property. She would be nonsuited in this case, and had better settle with defendant. Mrs. Bacon—l won't settle with him. He is very im- pudent. His Honour—l should have thought you would rather grumble at the impudence of his bullocks. Nonsuited. • Subsequently, Mrs. Bacon, in applying for the money in Court, said her husband was a seaman on board the St. George with H.R.H. Pi ince Alfred, and the money was ordered to her. SINGULAR INTERPLEADER SUMMONS:- MANNING V. BAYER. This was an interpleader summons—Mr, Book appearing for the claimant. It appeared that the claimant is an at torney, and that the defendant is his clerk. It was most satisfactorily proved that the property seized in execution belonged to the claimant, and that if the defendant had his name up it was only as common law clerk, having no profits and being salaried. His Honour found for the claimant, adding that it was customary for attornies to put up their clerks' names. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day, BOW-STREET. CHARGE Or BIGAMY.—Mrs. Barbara Catherine Wilson an elegantly-dressed lady, was placed at the bar charged with intermarrying with William Wilson, her former hus band, Jonathan Gotobed, being still alive. Mr. Sleigh appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Giffard defended the prisoner. Mr. Sleigh said he attended there that day to prosecute the lady at the bar for bigamy. According to the docu ments before him it appeared that she was originally mar ried in 1848, at Billericay, to Jonathan Gotobed, who some time after went to America, and then she, in the year 1858, married a Capt. Hunt, htr former husband being then alive. He should merely on that occasion offer sufficient evidence to justify a remand. Mr. John Wells Stannard—l am artieled clerk to Mr. Godrich, the solicitor for the prosecution. I produce two certificates. The one marked A. I got from Somerset-house. It is a certificate of marriage between Jonathan Gotobed with Barbara Catherine Morris. The marriage was per formed on the 22d of August, 1848, at Billericay, in Essex. The one marked B. is a copy of the certificate of marriage, performed at the parish church of St. Pancras, on the 12th January, 1858, between William Langham Le Hunt Wil son, bachelor, officer in the army, and Barbara Catherine Morris Gotobed Morgan, widow. Cross-examined by Mr. Giffard—l am instructed by the mother-in-law of the defendant. lam also engaged in an indictment against her for conspiracy, It has been re moved by certiorari from the Central Criminal Court to the Court of Queen's P ench. Ide not know that the lady came from Paris to meet the charge of conspiracy. I never offered to withdraw the charge of conspiracy if she would plead guilty to the charge of bigamy. Mr. George Parkes said—l know Mr. Gotobed. He came to town with me this morning I do not know him as the husband of the lady at the bar. Mr. Lettice, vestry clerk of St. Pancras. I produce the registry of marriage. I find there an entry of a mar riage on the I2th of January, 1858, between William Lang ham Le Hunt Wilson, batchelor, captain in the army, and Barbara Catherine Morgan, widow. I cannot recognise the defendant as the lady married. Miss Frances Ann Erie said—l am residing at Graves end. I acted as lady's companion to the defendant. I first became acquainted with her in 1857, at her sister's, Mrs. Petch. In the latter part of that year I heard the defendant say she was going to be married to Captain Wilson. Mrs. Petch, who was present, said to her, " What are you going to do with Jonathan?" She said, "He's all right, he's in America." There was no further conversation about mar riage. I saw the defendant again in March, 1858, she was then living with Captain Wilson as his wife. I then be came companion to her and travelled about with them. I have seen the defendant write. The signature in the book before me in the parish register of St. Pancras is in her handwriting. Mr. Sleigh said he had now to apply for a remand. Mr. Corrie said there did appear to be quite sufficient for such a proceeding. The point as it appeared to him was to prove the first marriage. Mr. Sleigh said that was so. Mr. Giffard said he hardly thought enough had been proved to justify a remand. Mr. Corrie said he was of a contrary opinion. Mr. Sleigh said, in fixing the amount of bail, he hoped as a charge had been imported into the present, viz., that of conspiracy, and which, if successful, would cause the dis inheriting a gentleman of large property, good and sub • stantial bail would be required. Mr. Corrie said he had nothing to do with the'charge of conspiracy. He thought that one surety of £5O, or two of £25 each, would answer all purposes. The required bail was then put in and the lady left the court with her friends. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. ROBBING A. SERGEANT OF ARTILLERY.—Kate O'Brien, a young unfortunate, wearing a hat extravagantly decorated with large flowers of varied colours, was charged with stealing a watch and chain, of the value of £ll, the property of Sergeant M'Kenzie, of the Royal Artillery. Sergeant Stephens, C Division, said the prosecutor was now at Chatham, but there was a witness present who knew something about the watch. Samuel Smith, a young man, said on Sunday morning he lent a woman ss. on the watch, and told his wife to let her have 15s. more. Yesterday he pledged the watch in the Caledonian-road, as ho was short of money, and the duplicate produced was the one he received. 98 C, said he went to Union-street the previous evening, and took the prisoner into custody. She owned to having had the watch, and said she should have got away but that officers were at the door. Prisoner now said the sergeant gave her the watch to pass the night with him• Sergeant Stephens said the watch and chain were worth £ll. Mr. Beadon remanded the girl for a week. THREATENING A. WlFE.—George Ellerington, a boot closer, of Berwick-street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Beadon as follows : Matilda Ellerington, wife of the defendant, said that yes terday afternoon, between three and four o'clock, her hus band, who had been drinking, said if she did not leave the room he would have her life. Mr. Beadon—You have a child lying dead, have you not ? Complainant—The funeral took place yesterday, your ,ITIE S. worship ; and it was on my return that my husband threatened me. He also threatened me and used very foul language the previous night in the room where the child was lying dead. Prisoner—l'm ( rry for it. Mr, Beadon—What a brute you must be to act like this while your child is lying dead and your wife in distress. You are a disgrace to humanity. You merely say you are sorry. A man who could do such a thing at such a time must be a brute, and is likely to do what he says. Complainant—He won't support his children. Mr. Beadon ordered the defendant to find one surety in £lO for three months. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock. NEWMARKET RACES.—(This Day). (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) £5O PLATE.

THE CASE OF COURVOISIER.—The assassination of Lord William Russell by his French valet, Courvoisier, made much noise in its day ; and in a work just ppblished, Tamphilius, we find the following novel and painful state ment :—" Courvoisier had so artfully effected the murder and robbery, that his counsel declared him, before his God, innocent, and acquittal would have been the result ; but Madame Piolaine, at the eleventh hour, stepped forward, and pointed out the man who had left a parcel containing the plate of the murdered nobleman. At her look Cour voisier trembled. That look cost him his life. How much did it cost the poor woman? That look rendered her home • less, shook the reason out of her husband—who ended his days in a madhouse—and left her penniless, a widow and a mother, in, to her, a cold world. The hotel of Piolaine was supported by foreigners ; and, because the inhuman murderer happened is be a foreigner, they shunned his house, and his interested neighbours alleged that Piolaine had brought one of their countrymen to the gallows—that he had sold his countryman for a promised reward. Poi laine denied having given up the parcel with a mercenary view ; he maintained that the foul deed was so monstrous that, had Courvoisier been his own brother, he would have felt himself bound to bring him to justtce. This would not do; his house was marked, and the finger of scorn was g r b p o e u r t i od a ill a struggled t o n n o ,. t ibneg tphoainttteidmeatwohuimld. Ile brFino be came a bankrupt, fled to Boulogne, and soon after ended his days in a madhouse. His industrious wife, who was an Englishwoman, returned to London with her orphan boy, opened a shop which did not answer, and at last loft for America, in the hope of earning a livelihood there." THE AMERICAN SPY SYSTEM IN LIVERPOOL.— We heard, the other day, upon excellent authority, that one of the members of an influential Liverpool firm is watched as systematically and tenaciously as if he were known to be hatching some infernal machine which would annihilate President Lincoln and his whole Cabinet at one blast. Ever a mysterious stranger in the person of a " private detective" is on his track. The gentleman cannot leave his office but this odious double is seen slinking about the doorway. Whether he walks, rides, or visits, he is sure at some turn to encounter the same tormenting and scrutinising gaze. Even at home he is not safe, for when he imagines himself snugly enshrouded with his family and Penates, his demon may be noticed peering in at the window or hovering about the threshold, until the victim re-appears once more to un dergo the daily round of dogging and hunting, until, as is this all. It is reported that the domestics of the grahleanblietns evening approaches, he is again " earthed" at home. Nor alluded to have been waylaid and questionod as to o i.. s q in the and operations, while it is stated that in his fi OAS©, his con case also of other " snspected" persons and their contents on their transit to Liverpool, r inspected , rto show the extent to duly noted and reported.
