THE African Squadron is reaching our
home ports, and will soon be added to the
naval force in operation upon the coast. The
United States steam gun. boat AohicaN,
mounting six guns, and nine hundred and
ninety four tuns burden, reached Boston on
Friday. The United States ship Portsmouth,
from the coast of Africa, arrived a day or
two previous. The United States steamers
Mystic, Sumter and San Jaeiato left Loando
on the llth ut. for the United States; the
first two vid Cape de Verbs, and the latter Vid
Fernando Pc and Cape de Verbs. The Con-
stellaton sailed on the lIth for home, and the
sioIsship Relief would leave in few days
for the same destination. The Saratoga

tive service on the African coast, and was the

The RIVER RECEBING.-As we predicted
yesterday, the rise in the Ohio River is
"played out" Up to noon to-day it has re-
ceded more than foot. The rise has been q
failure, because it has failed to give the an
nual fall cleaning to the doggeries and shops
fronting the river. The rise has not been a
failure because it has supplied a great many
poor families with wood. We know several
instances where the cellars and yards of in
dustrious men and boys are supplied with
wood enough to last half through the ap-
preaching winter. In this view, the rise has
proved beneficial. In a few days more the
landing will be pretty well covered with
mud, and the Ohio will have again resumed
its original size.

TIE HABEAs CoRPUs CAsE.-Last evening,
while the alleged MsysVille Secessionists
were in the charge of the officers at the
Broadway Hotel, a notice of which, with
the names of the parties, is given elsewhere,
a writ of ha6eas corpus was issued by Judge
Leayitt, commanding the officers to deliver
the prisoners, for hearing of the same, be.
fore him in the United States Courtroom at
ten o'clock this morning. Before the writ
was served, however, tie officers in charge
had delivered the prisoners into the custody
of the military authorities of this city, and
they were transferred TO the Barracks on
Elm.street.
Judge Leavitt thereupon issued new writ
of ha6eds corpus to be heard at three clock
this afternoon directing it to General Mitch
ell and Colonel A. Z. Jones. The writ was
served upon the Colonel at the Barracks at
twelve o'clock to-day, but he refused to give
up the prisoners unless commanded to do so
by his senior officer General Mitchell. As a
military officer he felt bound to be governed
in his conduct by military rules. The officer
had not then served the writ upon the Gen
eral, and whether he has yet done so we are
uniformed. Thus rests the kabsGs corpus
case at present T:iung.

New York, June 4. An article in tho Lon
don Times of the 22d, on jeff, Davis message,
says; Z" Mr., Davis, while making u studious
display Of moderation, and endeavoring to con.
clitate the good will of the European Nations,
is perfectly aware that his theories depend for
acceptance upon the rifles OF his fellow citizens.
The trbunal which decides questions of inter-
national law is usually stern one. If the
North prevails. it will prove that the Union
was nationality IL the South makes good
its independence, it will prove that the Union
was partnership during pleasure. This is
what is to be decided, and we must await the
event." The TIMES thinks that great move
ments will be postponed until fall.

A SCENE IN THE New HANPsmRE REGnIENT.-
The Transcript has the following from a cor
respondent
" 4 most exciting scene transpired at the
New Hampshire encampment, Saturday at-
ternoon, while the firing at Arlington flights
was going on. The Regiment was drawn up
about the Chaplain, Rev. Mr.. Abbott, who
read chapter IN the Bible, and then gave out
a hymn Each man drew hymn-book from
his breast pocket, and the hymn was sung to
the tune Of The Red, White and Blue the
entire Regiment joining in the chorus. In his
prayer, the Chaplain alluded to the fight prob
ably going on, and said, o Lord grant that
our men may have cool hands and steady eyes,
and that their missiles may go straight to the
mark
A captain of one of the companies could not
restrain his enthusiasm, and took off his cap
and waved it over his head, those about him
showing BY their countenances that they would
like to join him"
