HorrxAx, TIE DrrAULTER The examination Of
Francis HOLMAN, the defaung cashier of the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company, VIII take place at 10 O'Clock
this morning before Justice Connolly, at Jefferson
Market. Hoffman having been long time employed
IN the Company's cfEce, had ample opportunity TO COM
init the frauts with which he is charged, but 80 far
ascertained, he had committed no criminal act till
within the past year. He was suspected Of any
defacaton until bis sudden disappearance few weeks
sDce just after the Company had declared dividend
When it was fully established that he had fed from the
CITY, competent person was intrused with his books,
and directed TO make thorough examination Of them.
They were ascertaned to be in a state Of great
disorder and 30 completely confused that very little
information could be derived from them. Enough was
learned however TO convince the Directors that their
abs ondDg cashier had made oyerissue Of stock,
but to what extent was not known. The Company
resolved 10 pay the declared dividend on all stock
presented, be good or bad, and accordingly adver
tised 10 that effect The result showed them that the
oyeIssue amounted to upward Of one thousand shares
on all of which the dividend was paid
1t was also discovered that in 1855, when dividend
was declared, the books were in such q condition
that Hoffman must have disbursed the money in
ruost reckless manner. He was unable to tell how
the stock was held, and was as apt TO pay person
the dividend on $50 shares as on 100. He got
over this difficulty, when hard pressed, by paying
a portion of the amount from his own private fands.
Thus if one person called for his dividends Oh 100
shares and ceived check for the amount due on $50
shares, he woad point out the error 10 Hoffman, who
would spol gze and draw his own check for the right
amount placing the other TO his own credit Another
person whoee check had been made odt for less sun
than be was entitled TO- would also receive Hoffman
individual check for the correct sum. is estimated
that the accused paid out in this manner several thou
said dollars more than be received.
1t 10 supposed that the oyerssue has all been effected
since this transaction of 1859, and that Hoffman was
driven TO do in consequence Of the losses he Incurred
by speeulating In stocks The affdavts 10 the case
were not prepared yesterday afternoon, but it is said
hey viii be ready this morning. When the warrant
or his arrest was issued, an affidavit was made before

persons visited Camp Scott yesterday, and the
boats and cars at every trip were well pstronized
The OILY inconvenience experienced by visitors is in
reaching the Camp after leaving the cars the depot be-
ing about mile and bali distant from the encamp-
nsnt The road is exceedingly dusty, great coods
Of which constantly fill the air. Vehicles of every de-
serptoD have been put in requisition by cntsr-
prizpg persons and passengers conveyed between
the Camp and depot for a shilling head. The walk
Il not very long, but riding or walking in the dust is
almost overpoweriDg.
Among the visitors TO the camp yesterday were ex-
Col L. w. Stevens of the old 9th Regiment Col Van
Buren,, c l. Gibbons and Mr.. Siddons The former
ained with Brevet-Col. Subway the officer of the
day) ard the ttaff officers in the mess tent.
1t is greatly 10 be regretted that the regiment is 80
poorly represented and visitors remark the scarcity Of
soldiers on the daily paIades, and about tAe camp
grounds daring the day.
Instead of remaining at camp during the prescribed
time for encampment, the soldiers constantly
going backward and forward between New-York and
the island AT this season the merchants are engaged
IN taking account of stock, which fact will account for
the shm attendance at camp, as the great majority Of
the members are engaged in mercantile business. 1t
il ex pected that the Regiment will be reviewed some
time this week by Governor Morgan, but nothing is
yet known positively on the subject.
On Friday the Chicago ZOuaves are expectedto visit
the camp. Tney will be received with salute and
other honors. On the evening of that day there will
probably be grand ball. on which occasion the camp
will be brilliantly Illuminated.
The evening parade last night was very slim, aud
the eDesmpmeht is very far behind the last eneamp
