brought by Mr.. Russell, which has finally terfnft.

This verdict was renderea,by sherif's jury, and
cannot be appealed FROM This, is conclusive
therefore, of the legal Fslae at which the ingolas

this connection the NeWs York Times relates an
aneedote showing that Reporters staudra fews

This individual, who has for some years enjoyed
not very envable notoriety in this community, is,
no doubt against his wish, again brought before
the public, through the kindness of prominent
physician and surgeon, DR.. Schuppert, in card
published in of our German contemporaries.
The immediate cause of this rather spicy production
is the fact that the said expolitcian eXstreet con-
tractor, eXrailroad overseer,, ETC., managed,
through his barefaced effrontry and systematic de-
ception, to get himself appointed surgeon of
the Second Regiment of Louisiana Volunteers
Prompted by sense of duty as physicians and
citizens, Drs. Schuppert and Smith at once ad-
dressed the following letter to Governor Moore,
which had the desired effect owit: the immediate
withdrawal of his commission. The letter speaks
for itself:
To His Exeel'ency,. Thos. Q. Moore
The undersigned, members of the medical pro-
fessiOn of New Orleans, would most respectfully
call your attention to the following charges, which
make against certain person calling himself
NJ L. Rossvally, lately appointed surgeon to the
Second Regiment Louisiana Volunteers. In pre-
ferring these charges we are actuated by sense
of duty which we owe to the State and the medi-
cal profession.
lst We refer to his conduct in the post-mortem
examination of the late DR.. Graham, wherein he
demanded and obtained money from the friends of
the deceased by outraging the most sacred feelings
of humanity, the particulars of which were pub
lished in the public journals.
ID. We charge him with theft, having stolen
goods from Messrs. Hyde Is Goodrich and other
parties, in proof of which suhioin the names

The Ngw York TE1BUNE.-The following, taken
from the New York News, shows how Greeley
stands on the war question. No one has been
more oud-mouthed in his cry for bloodshed, nor
has any paper shown a greater enmity against the
South than the Tribune.
We always believed that all Greeley would do,
would be to bay at us, and the following figures
support us in that opinion:

MOVEMENTS OF THE TRAITORS!

Maj. Anderson, commander of tn.
Forts at Charleston has been compelled ,e
abandon Fl Moultrie and Castle Pickney
and concentrate his forces in Fort Sump
ter. The former positions have since
been taken possession Of by South Carroll
ma traitors, and it is thought that they
will soon attack Maj. Anderson's little
band. While all this is going on the Ad.
minstration is shipping the arms and am
uni.ion belonging to the Government from
the North to the South. s-.-
We are well satisfied in our own mind
too, that there is scheme on foot
amongst the traitors to take possession o.
Washington oE or about the fourth o
March and endeavor 10 prevent the inau'
guration Of Lincoln.
Our advice to Northern men is to
prepare for the worst-treason is stalking

On his breast he wore leather plscard

recolect of seeing you cured Of one very

THE CABINET.

y 1t seems now to bo authoritiyely set
tied that Mr.. Lincoln has selected one Of
his Cabinet, and that Mr.. Edward Bates,
OF Missouri, is the man. The ST. Louis
Democrat is authorized to make such
statement. 1t is not yet settled which
bureau shall be assigned to Mr.. B. That
paper says this determination fixes the
purposes of Mr.. Lincoln's course, which
the two words Conservatism and Union
express. The President elect and Mr..
Bates have had full, free and candid in
terchange Of sentiments and opinions,
with result mutually satisfactory, and
the Democrat says the fact is pregnant
with an importance, TO wit, that "the
Union will not be dissolved during the
four years commencing on the 4th of
March, unless all the legitimate powers
which the government shall be able to
exercise, shall prove inadequate to avert
the calamity" e
The action of Mr., Lincoln in calling
Mr.. Bates TO his Cabinet will meet the u
niversal commendation OF the Republi.
cans, and all men who hold the Union
dear to their hearts, and who wish the
Republican standard to be carried unfair
nished. and with firm hand. That
banner will not trail so long as the flag
OF the Union is kept out of the dust,
and even should Democratic treason sue
ceed in dividing the Republic before the
fourth Of March. the country may rest
assured that--as the St. Louis Democrat
says "the'e is no danger that the
boundaries OF the Republic will be mar
rowed during Mr.. Lincoln's term"

Asto the request of the South Caroli-

Asto the request of the South Caroli-
ma Commissioners for the restoration OF
the military status, this is considered by
the larger portion of the Cabinet as im-
possible. Secretary Floyd, Thompson
and Thomas, who hold the constitutional
right of secession, were separated on the
South Carolina question from their Cabi-
net associates. There was no positive
decision at the meeting to- day. although
the prospect is certainly not favorable to
the Com missioners, and this statement is
strengthened by the fact that to day Sec
retary Floyd resigned bis Office.
1t is said that Secretary Thompson
would also have resigned were it not thai
an investigation was pending concerning
the affairs of the Interior Department, ii
connection with the abstraction of the In
dian Trust bonds--an investigation which
he asked for the vindication OF bis owr
honor and integrity.
The report prevails that Secretary
Thomas resigned, but this results from
his indecision as to whether he shall re
ain in the Cabinet or not. and it is gen
orally believed that the extremites gym
pathise with Secretary Floyd.

Bloody Finale to a Drunken Row.

Bloody Finale to a Drunken Row.
Many Of our readers have already heard
of the Murder in Gilboa, on last Friday
evening, the 2lst. The particulars, as
we have them from reliable source, are
about as follows:
Leonard Dutch was the keeper of a
grocery in Gilboa. On Friday evening,
some half dozen men were iu his gro
Gerry and among them one Josiah Shaffer.
All of them, including Dutch. had been
drinking freely. Only one of them was
sober enough to give any definite account
of what happened. Shaffer had been
drinking frequently through the day, and
was considerably intoxicated They were
all about to leave, when Shaffer, acci
dentally, perhaps, knocked glass off the
counter and broke it. An alteration en-.
sued between him and Dutch. after which
Schaffer asked for more liquor. Dutch
refused and ordered the whole company
out OF the grocery. They either refused
to, or were at least slow about going, and
he called his two brothers-in law, ur
stairs, to come and help him. A scuAie
cnsued between Scheffer and Dutch, du-
ring which Shaffer was seen to have some
thing in his hand. Dutch followed him
some distance after he bad got out, ane
as he was returning fell to the ground. H,
got up, however, and got into the groce,
ry, when he fell down and expired. HI
had been stabbed in the left breast, tn,
knife penetrating some distance into th
heart. Shaffer was arrest ed soon after
and an examination had. lie was hell
, to bail in the sum Of $4,000. We un
derstand that he has failed to give bail
and has been committed to jail.--Hancoc
