We have the Charleston (ao.,) Courier, Of tn,
( 22d, in which We find a eircumstansd account
Of the operLons of Gen. Jeff Thompson, result
ing in his boarding the steamer Platte Valley
The Courier says:
On Monday last, BHg-Gen. JEFF. Thompson
with part OF his army and battery Of artil-
! iery, went from New Madrid 70 Prices Landing
for some purpose, said by the St Louis Democrat
10 be the capture Of the Marie Denning, sup
posed 70 bs coming down loaded with guns and
ammunition for the new guub0ats, aud also to
capture Gen Grant and paymsster, who were
70 90 up on the Plate Valley 70 Cape Girardeau.
Well, il seems the Marie did not come bu. the
Platte Valley did, and Gen. Thompson had her
rounded TO IN regular style, under Ere from his
cannon. Upon boarding her, however, Gen.
Grant aud the paymaster with the money for the
Cape troops could not ba found Rum0r SAYS
they were hid, but the writer say they were not,
for they were left at Cairo; however, It was ali
the same, az they were non oO1neat6us est JOGit-

Gen. Thompson arTaigned Capt Postal and
the other boat oficers before the bar where after
a long time as most Of the men, as well as the
general, were old practitiOners they together
with number of l, 5. officers on board were
sworn to support the government OF JEFF Davis,
aud not to take UP arms against Dixie, or give
aid and comfort 70 its enemies, and were then al

Agent OF Par.on BrownIsw Arrested.

Prom tha Boston Pos1.
An arrest was made YESTERDAY, by officers OF
the United States government, which l. regarded
IS One Of the most important that has yet been
made since the breaking out Of the rebellion.
The particulars are ss follows, AZ gathered BY
one OF our reporters: For several months d
man named Parker ii. French, alias Lieut..
Carlisle Murray, alias Charles Msxy, has been
travelling in various parts OF the West and
North. for the purpose chiefly Of organizing the
order known as the Knights Of the Golden Cir
Gle. He WAS arrested yesterday morning in
Bradford, Connecticut few miles from New
Haven, where he had organized a lodge, and
spread secession sentiments 10 NJ small extent.
His arrest Was made 0y IHe superintendent Of
the government detective police from Washing
ton, and detective Franklin, o, Philadelphia.
French has been stopping in Bradford and
vicinity for about SIX weeks under the alias Of
AaKy and had s4cceeled in estrsnging many
persons from loyalty 20 the government. ia his
possession we're fonnd the constitution aHi by
laws Of the GOld5n Circle and entire authority
from parties a. the South for GTgsnzing the in
stitutiOn. He also had many other docUmeHts
Of interest aud importance. Among them are
letters purPGning 20 be from JEFF. Davis, Emer-
son Etheridge, PaTsCu BrOwnlow and Others
most Of which are doubtless f0rgefiog. IIP is
believed 70 have had much genuine corTespon-
dencs Si.h influential SecessiOnists. So much
had he e1deared hil,-self to the people Of Brad
ford, that the officers felt compelled, CT EecU-ing
as person, 70 leave town at once, fearing that an
sttempt al TescHe might be made They took
the cars for Boston, aud arrived here last even
ing. He viii be conveyed to Port Warren this
morning
French Is regarded as one Of the most accom-
pished scOundrels in the country. lie was one
Of Walkers right hand men in the Nicaragua
affair. and be- fought three dues, in one Of
which be lost his right arm. Through forged
letter in the name Of PsrsOn BrOwn!ow. he OBJ
tanned the SUN of $1,000 from Amos Lawrence
Of this city, the money being given IN support Of
the PsTsOu's somewhat famous paper lie has
figured IN gAfiors schemes Of yillsny, particu-
larry in California. lie ssys lie Aes information
Of parties in Boston who are playing directly
into the hands Of the SecessiOnists. SO emphat-
ieslly does b assert this that government will
cause certain matters to be investigated and
tho names OF sundry citizens engaged IN com
merce, particularly with 81. John snd thence 10
southern ports, will be Oyerhsuled Secretary
Seward IS to make an immediate visit 70 Boston,
and, Il IS presumed, with some reference TO
this case
The government oticer, who has made very
many OF the arrests Of traitors now at Fort
" amen, regards this arrest as likely 70 lead 20
important results lie has been in pursuit Of
French for long time, aud i was only bv the
most ingenious plans carefully executed, that hS
WIS az last secured.
