Correspondence of the Louisville Journal.
CINCINNATI, March 10.

ated by the affair of Mcleod. The fol-
lowing is from the Journal of Commerce
"On Monday night, February 2Sth, a
Young man by the name of Hogan, was ar
rested about eight miles from Lockport,
and brought to that place, charged with be-
ing one of the party who attacked the
steamer Caroline. The evidence against
him is said to be that he disclosed to DIR.
Mkenzie, of Lockport, in 1928, that he
was one ofth party; and that, having &C.
casion to come to Rochester, he wrote to
the Doctor, inquirng whether there would
be any danger in doing so, and asking for
brace of pistols. Hogan is resident of
Hamilton in U. Canada, and had been to
Rochester to attend court. lie was lodged
in jail for one night. and the next day taken
by writ Of hubeaS corpus before Judge
Ransom, Of the common pleas court, upon
the plea that there was sufficient evidence
10 warrant his detention. What the result
of the hearing was, we shall probably know
tomorrow. The following is from the
Rochester Post:
In addition, we have been permitted to
peruse private letter to a Canadian exile
in this city, of the same date, of which the
following is an extract:
John Sheridan Hogan, one Of the Car
olinc invaders, about whom there can be
no mistake, has to take his trial for the part
he took in the Schlosser murders | am
told he is clerk 20 the sheriff Of the Gore
district. who was McNab's Lieut.. Colonel
opposite Navy Island and that he was for
lnerly in McNab's law office, and acted as
his Secretary while at Chippewa, in 1888.
He is a good looking, bold, manly little Eel
low--Tory and game to the backbone"
This will revive the whole question in
vOlved in the celebrated Mcleod case. A
more important movement has not taken
place for some time. Hogan is one, who,
we are told freely admits his connexon
with the Caroline outrage, and throws him
self on the protection Of the British Gov
eminent.
1--WE learn that Mr.. Hogan is a native
of Ireland; that he was recently in this
city, and stopped several days at the Ma.
tionaI Hotel, where he expressed some fears
lest lie should be arrested and detaincd
and that his companion was Mr.. J. w
Altman. son of Michael Altman, Tory
member Of the late Upper Canada parlia
ment."
In confirmation Of these statements, il
appears that, on the Sth instant the presi.
dent transmitted to Congress a message, in
which he announces the receipt of the a
bove intelligence at the Department OF
State, and rcnews the recommendation
made by him previously for the enactment
of law 10 take su'h cases at once to tho
United States courts, instead Of permitting
them first to progress through tic sevcra
gradations of the State judiciary.
Mr.. Barnard stated mat the Judiciary
Committee had reported bill on the sub
iect for the consideration Of which no op.
portunity had yet been offered, and it wa:
suggested that it could be taken up in Com
mittee Of the Whole on the state Of The
Union Mr.. Gushing, however, preferred
that the message be referred TO the Com.
mittee on the Judiciary, which wGs agreed
to.
The IntelligcncCr remarks that an i'm
preston very generally prevails, that thc
production Of Mcleod No. ,, is the wOrt
of the Patriots" TO embroii the two Gov
ernments and States. The whole affair o
the Caroline is in the course Of amicab!t
discussion between this Government ant
Great Britain, and no man, who is not al
enemy to the public peace woulS, afte
what has passed, endeavor to raise new
issue upon that matter.
The President also transmitted on tn
9Th inst, communication addressed to hin
BY the Secretary of the Treasury announ
cling that without further provision for sup
ply, the Treasury would be in q deficit o.
the close of May, of S325l,GS6, ana sug
costing that, if the $l5,000,0O0 Of Exche
qucr issues be not permitted, the authorit
to borrow be extended 50 as to redeem a
the outstanding Treasury notes, by
twelve million loan.
The reading OF the communication hay
ing been concluded
Mr.. FILLMORE said he concurrel in tn
views expressed by the Secretary Of th
Treasury in regard to tho necessity of i'm
mediate action in relation to the finances
but he considered it due TO the Commute
of Ways and Means to state that they ha
not hitherto acted on the subject Of pei
maucnt revenue, because they had, thus fal
been waiting for an expected project lrog
the Secretary on that sub jcct. The pre-.
ent communication proposed an cxtensio
of the time Of the loan already authorized
for which there was at this time a bill per
ding before the House, and for the passag
of which Mr.. F. felt great anxicty.-Th
Message further contemplated an increas
of the amount Of the loan. On this pOir
he was not at present prepared to cxpres
any opinion. 1t must be with the utmo
possible reluctance that he ever could yiel
his assent, either to an increase of the e,
isting loan, or TO any new emission {
