CITY INTELLIGENCE.

ARRIVAL OF TRo0Ps.-0n Saturday morning,
about nine O'clock there arrived at the President
street depot the 10Th New York regiment, Colonel
Y ON StSicwhe: It is comprised almost entirely of
Germans and has been in camp for several weeks
at a point near Albany. The regiment proceeded
by way of Exeter and Lombard streets to the Cam
den depot, where they took the for Washing
ton.
There also arrived, at Bolton depot about the
same time, the Twenty Sixth New York Regiment,
numbering about 800 men, under command of Col.
Christian. The main portion of the men were
from Utica, Oneida county.
About eight oclock yesterday morning two regi-
ments arrived at Bolton depot, Northern Central
Railway, route for Washington. The first was
the Second New Hampshire Regiment, under com
mand Of Col. Gilman Marston, The other was the
Seventeenth New York Regiment, numbering $50
men, commanded by Col. II. S. Lansing. After dis
embarking, this body of troops marched to Camden
station, where were in waiting to convey them
to the Capitol.
Whilst the troops were standing on the platform
at Camden Station, one of the officers of the New
\ Ork Regiment treated one of the men pretty
roughly. For some reason or other the officer
chopped the soldier over the head with his sword,
inlicting a severe wound the temple. The
wounded man was taken to the drug store Of Mr..
A. p. sharp, corner o Pratt and Howard, where
his injury was dressed by DR.. Morrison. About 90
members of the New Hampshire Regiment were
sick with the measles, and bad to be conveyed from
one depot to the other in cars.
CAToNSvILLE RALRcAD.-This county improve
ment, which we had every reason to fear would be
discontinued, is again proceeding with renewed
energy. The grading between Mount 0iivet
Cemetery to Fairview Inn requires but little more
preparation for the rails. From Fairview Inn to
the fourth mile stone, full force is pushing the
work rapidly, and in a very few DAYS this portion
OF the road will be in thorough order for travelling.
The culverts, the road proceeds, are being
widened, streng thened and protected by parapets
of solid masonry. The grand feature Of the whole
is the splendid suspension bridge now in tie process
of construction by our enterprisng citizens Messrs.
Hazlehurst Co. 1t will stretch Gwinn's
Falls with single span, about ten to fifteen feet
above the level o the present bridge. The eastern
abutment was commenced day or two since, and
the whole is expected to b. completed about the 1st
of August. The effect of these improvements will
be not onv to afford the facilities for reaching by
rail of the most beautiful portions of the State,
but reducing the old grade to make the Frederick
turnpike among the most agreeable drives leading
from the city.
Mr.. MERRYMAN's CAsE-It having been asserted
that the case of Mr.. John Merrvman, of HayfeId,
Baltimore county, now confined within Fort
McHenry upon charge of treason, would come up
for disposition this week, we have made some in
quiry in relation to it and informed that the
Grand Jury Of the United States District Court
have, within the past week, had several parties
summoned to appear before them as witnesses in
relation to the burning of the bridges on the
Northern Central Railway in April last. Out OF
this fact has, no doubt, grown the rumOr that Mr..
merry man case WOulu De disposed oil TINS week.
Should an indictment be found against MIR. Merry
man for treason, his will not come up for
trial until the November term of the United States
Circuit Court.
INSOLENT PRoCEEDING.-On Friday one of the
officers Of the Federal troops now quartered in
this CITY, entered the bookstore of Mr. James s.
Waters and directed medallion likeness of his
ExcelIencv Jefferson Davis which was exposed in
the window, to be removed. A. Mr.. Waters declined
to comply with the impertinent order, the officer
atapp In sand la nf fha Hau N

offensive in the extreme. We have not heard
whether the soldiers have yet captured the portrait
of the distinguished rebel.

George w. Tucker, Jr., who arrested at For
tress Monroe about four weeks since by Genera
