Willis Holland, of Missouri, Receiver of

The Government has telsgraphic advices

count of his alleged surrender to Gen. Lee,
which, of course, vas utterly unfounded.
The firing across the river this morning
of heavier guns than have heretofore been
heard at this point, was oocasioued simply
by the exercise of the men at the guns
stationed at some of the United States

also fired several shots this forenoon from
rifled guns ON Munson's hill, at the Union
.pickers, without, however, killing or

fore Aid. Dulty. The case came up yes

First, that the Union advertised to have

Iation at all, and WAS compelled to suspend
in consequence. Therefore, the advertise
men, was obtained under false prelcnces
Second, that if it did have decent circu-
latiou, the paper WAS ofsueh reasonable
and infamous character, that the more ii
circulated the more damage to the bust
ness of the person who advertised In il
Third, that the proprietor (P.H. Moore twas

entitled 70 the laws protection. Finally
the Doctor took tue position that il the

meut in favor of P. II. Moore & Co., aud DR..
