ARRIVAL OF THE CHINA.

NEW YORK, JUNE 6, Evening.

The Federal debt amounted on the Ist instant to
2,635 millions of dollars, the annual interest thereon
payable in coin to 64i millions, and the interest
payable in currency to 60 millions. The legal ten-
der notes afloat amount to 659 millions.

The suppressed testimony at the conspiracy trial
has now been published. Connover, a correspon-
dent of the New York Tribune, Merritt, a physician
of Montgomery, and a Government detective, tes-
tified that they were intimately acquainted with the
Confederate agents in Canada, and feigned to act
in complicity with them in order to learn their
secrets. They frequently saw Saunders, Thompson,
and Clay in intercourse with Booth. Connover
testified that he was present when Surratt delivered
despatches to Thompson from Davis and Benjamin,
indicating Lincoln, Johnson, Stanton, Grant,
Seward, and Chase for assassination, and that
'Thompson commissioned Booth for this purpose.
He also testified that the Confederates in Canada
had organised a plan to poison the reservoirs and
the stock of cotton in New York.

The Times says that the Government depends
upon the evidence of Connover, Merritt, and Mont-
gomery for the implication of Davis.
General Kirby Smith has surrendered on the
same terms as Generals Lee and Johnstone, and
all the cotton in the Trans-Mississippi department
belonging to the Confederate Government has been
delivered over to the Federals.

rendered.

It is stated that the Government has demanded
the surrender of the Confederate ram Stonewall by

send a vessel to accompany the Atlantic cable expe-
dition, because no official information has been re-

Federal vessels to quit British ports within 24 hours
•
of their arrival.

Mr. Garrett Smith will lecture to-night, denying
the right of the Government to try the Confederates

" WITH HALF HIS LIMBS IN BATTLE LOPPED
AWAT."—During the distribution of commemorative medals
at Alessandria on the Fete of the Statuto the assemblage
was much moved at seeing an artilleryman come forward
and receive a medal with his teeth. This brave fellow,
who had lost both his arms by a shell, had taken part in all
the wars from 1848 to the day of receiving that injury, and
in proof of his exploits wore numerous medals on his
breast, including one ingold, one French, and one Turkish.
The crowd cheered him heartily:
EPIDEMIC AT MEDINA AND MECCA.—Letters from
Medina give frightful account of the ravages of the
epidemic now raging both at that city and Mecca. It takes
the form both of typhus and cholera. On the eve of Cour-
ban-Beiram, and during the Ist and 2d days of the feast,
this terrific scourge carried off no less than 46,000 victims
amongst the pilgrims, and though the intensity of the
plague is somewhat abated, multitudes still perish. The
inhabitants have fled, and the streets are filled with corpses.
Of the Persian pilgrLns alone no less than 5,000 have fallen
victims, amongst whom is the sheik Mirza llachim, who,
saint as he was reputed to be, has perished with his whole
household„ composed of ten persons. Sheriff Abdullah
Pacha has taken refuge at Taif, and the Governor-General,
Vedji Pacha, after having lost a son and daughter, his him-
self fallen dangerously ill.—Levant Herald, June 7.

MURDER IN CANADA.—On Sunday, the 28th of
May, a respectable farmer of the name of Moquin
went to church with his family at the village of Laprairie,
on the south shore of the St. Lawrence, in the district of
Montreal, leaving his house and two young children in
charge of two women servants. In his absence a man
named Berreau, or Brist, who has been in the United States
army, and was formerly known at the house, went there,
shot one of the servants and one of the children, robbed
the house of $5OO, set fire to it, and fled to the woods. The
affair has caused great excitement in and about Montreal,
where there is some apprehension as to the results of the
disbandment of the United States army, especially as it has
been rumoured that the soldier is to be allowed to retain
his arms as a trophy 9f the war.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)
IN RE EMMA PUGH.

This bankrupt was deicribed as of the Scrap Ironworks,
Greenwich, and to day she applied for her order of dis-
charge ; being supported by Mr. Sargood. It appeared
from the accounts that Mrs. Pugh owed £2,400. She had
given up £l,OOO, and thej bad debts were £3,900, due from
Wrangham, Brothers, iron merchants. It would appear
that Mrs. Pugh, now a widow, was formerly a Miss
Wrangham, and she had not only given to her brothers
£l,BOO cash, which she had received from the estate of her
husband, but she also made herself liable for them, and
they owed her £3,900.
His Honour made the order as requested.

This bankrupt was described as a commercial agent, of
Gracecburch-street, and to-day he applied for his order of

£11,060.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

PARISH PROSECUTION OF THE UNION STREET BROTHEL
KEEPERS.—George Atherfold, licensed victualler, of the
Duke of York publichouse, Union-street, Oxford-street,
and Matilda Austin, his barmaid, were charged before Mr.
Mansfield, on a warrant, with keeping a brothel No. 8,
Union-street, St. George's, Hanover-square.
Mr. Randall prosecuted on the part of the vestry of St.
George's, Hanover-square, and Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great
Marlborough-street, appeared for the prisoners.
Inspector Bowles, 0 division, said he knew the male
prisoner as the man named in the warrant, and the female
as the person meant in it, though her name is not men-
tioned.

In answer to Mr. Lewis, the inspector said he had
evidence to show the female took part in keeping the
house. He had seen her personally at the house behind
the bar—it being a public-house—serving the customers.
There was another female in the house, the daughter of
the male prisoner.

Mr. Lewis—There is no evidence to show the female
took part in the management of tho house, and that more
substantial evidence of identity was required.
Mr. Mansfield thought the evidence sufficient and com-
mitted the prisoners, fixing the bail for the male prisoner
at two in £4O, and for the female at two in £2O.

John Chesson and Sarah Chesson, coffee-house keepers,
were charged with keeping a brothel at 6, Union-street.
Mr. Lewis appeared for the prisoners.
They were committed to the sessions, similar 'bail to
that in the other case being taken.
