Another bank Case in New orleans.

From the NeW Orleans Plcdyune, July 5U.I
In the provost court yesterday case was de-
cided of considerable importance. J. +. Pepin,
a resident of France, brought suit against the
bank Of America in the sum of 500 ,OO0 alleged
to be due and owing to him. 1t appeared that
Mr. Pepin is stOckholder in the Commercial
Water Works, aud empowered Mr.. Lsbatut,
president of said works, to draw check for the
above sum- and it is alleged the bank refused to
pay over anything but Confederate notes.
The counsel for the bank objected to the suit
on the ground that the payee OF check or bill
Of exchange must bring satisfactory proof of the
commences Of the document, if he is not him
self tha depositor of the funds.i That Mr.. Laba-
tut, tho present payee, had not taken the oath Of
allegiance to the United States, aud that his os-
tensibly giving the ckeck to a French subject
was an attempt to evade the requirements OF
Gen. BQtler's order.
It was an attempt of the water works to do
indirectly what he could not do directly, that is
to say, to draw money out Of the bank without
taking the oath of allegiance. Furthermore, it
was denied that payment has been offered in
Confederate notes.
Judge Bell said ho did not conshue the order
of Gen. Butler to mean that secessionist could
not pay debt to a loyal citizen. That Pepin,
being a resident of France, could not be required
to take any oath, but must be considered for sll
iGCLlCdl pD560 do a ~ " 81 N4rAA1As 4 LAT
unless cOlluson to evade the requirements OF
the order was shown, it must be deemed bona
fde proof of an intention on the part OF the
President OF the waterworks to satisfy just
debt.
The counsel for complainant then introduced
the check signed by NJ. Labatut, in favor of Mr.
Pepin, for 560 600, and also the pass-book of the
company showing a clear balance in its favor
Of more than The amount drawn for.
The chief point raised by the defendants was
that it was not Mr.. Pepin, but Mr.. Labatut, who
had cause Of action versus the bank, as the
drswee OF the check had not accepted the same
or under certain conditions-the receiving Of
Confederate notes in payment. A condition oI
acceptance not agreed to by the interested party
was il effect, no acceptance at all.
Counsel for plaintiff Mr. Roseius, then en-
tered into an able argument to prove that the
bank was liable both in law ard equity. The
/ case is held under advisement

20 the ASsOclaLeu Iftss NOELlI
PARIS. Ky, July 3O-Ye5ter1ay afternoon, q
party of "a i guerrilla rebels from Boon county,
under command of Gen. Bullette, appeared be-
fore Mount Sterling and demanded the surrend-
ar of the town, which was refused. They then
attempted to take it by force, but were fred on
by the home guard and q number killed. They
then turned to retrace their steps down the pike,
and were met by q party of men under Major
Bfacht, of the 18th Kentucky, who ordered a
charge, which turned them toward the town,
where they " ere again warmly received, which
caused them to make q complete stampede,
esving all their horses, etc. The rebels lost
thirteen killed and forty-eight prisoners the
number wounded, nos sscsrtained. Oar loss
was three wounded. Major Bracht is closely
following the balance.
The Paris home guards last night captured
eight of the flying rebels near this place. Ten
were also captured at North Middleton.
LOUISVILLE, July 3O.-The Express newspa-
per has been suppressed, and the editor and pub
fishers arrested, by order of Gen Boyle, on ac-
count of the general tone of the paper being
calculated to aid the rebellion.
Further particulars of the Mount Sterling
affair ere as follows: Yesterday, at sunrise, one
hundred and seventy-fve mounted gueui.las
mostly armed, principally from Boone county,
KY, arrived at North Middleton. A Union man
sent from there notified the inhabitants of Mount
Sterling of the design of these guerrillss to at
tack the latter place. In the afternoon seven of
these guerrillsS went into Mount Sterling TO de-
mand its surrender. The Mount Sterling home
guards thirty strong, under Captain Evans, pIo-
vost marshal, killed the whole seven. The re-
msinder of the rebels, coming up, were tred at
from houses on the road. Six more were killed
and some twenty mprtaliy wounded. The rebels,
retreating some miles, came upon Major Bracht
Of the 18th kentucky, and the provost marshal
of Lexington advancing with one hundred Of
his regiment and thirty home guards from the
neigbborhood of North Middleton, when they
broke in confusion, scattering in every diTec-
ton, Braeht pursuing, firing upon them, killing
and wOunding several, capturing their horses,
arms, etc, and taking some fifty prisoners.
Twenty or thirty more were subsequently re-
ported captured. Our loss was three homo
guards wounded, one of whom fatally, and one
Of Bracht's regiment wounded severely.

The New York Tribune Of The 25th inst, says.
The ron business of this country bids fair To
double itself within five years. The present
production Of pig metal is 100000 tGns per an
nun. Great Britain makes 3OOO,O 600 tuns, and
sends 20 the United States 550,OOOOOO in iron
and steel. Under the present tariff, iron pro
ductiOn with Us must be greatly increased The
coming year. Capital aud talents are in de-
mand for this class of manufacture. With the
abundance Of raw material, the best Of msg-
netic iron ores, including the Franklnits, 70 be
used alone or IN sdmixture, impOTtGJious Of iron
and steel ought to cease at an early day. In
trial recently made in reveTb2toTy furnace in
this city for the purpose Of using the product 0r
beams, the following materials were used, VIZ
500 lbs. Scotch pig, 500 lbs. scrap iron, and 3JJ
lbs. Frauklinite ore. The loss on the pig and
scrap was about 10 per cent; tha whole product
was 1I29 pounds, realizing By this mode Of con-
version 45d per cent. Of iron from the Franklin
its ore used. The increased tensile strength
over the pig and scrap when used alone was -
per cent. These castings averaged nearly 81
600 pounds on a square inch, which is above the
government standard for ordnance. There Is a
great demand for Tn iron that will make barrels
Of the Springfield musket pattern. Over halt
million Of barrels are now wanted. In the
rough they weigh ten pounds, and Of the stand
srd strength would sell for over $500 per tun-
Many OF the recent trials have proved failures
The celebrated Marshall iTon, which Is used BY
the English government, is ssid 70 be made from
Swedish ores. These ores have d large percent
sge Of manganese, in them-accOrding TO

Of Franklinite' Of New jersey shows IL per cen--

terial is 70 work great change in the strength

Grent IunuI Of ThieHes.

Three or four weeks ago there were several
bold ana heavy burglaTies committed in this
city, evidently by professional and accomplished
thieves. Among other thefts, Mr.. Malcolm Nc
Callums, planter, residing near Raleigh, had
bsg containing six thousand dollars in gold
taken from his person while sleeping in house
on Front Row. Mrs. Eliza Bishop was also
robbed Of Jewelry to the amount of twelve hun
dred dollars, and other thefts Of valuables were
made The facts were reported to the provost
marshal who confded the task of hunting out
the thieves to Capt. Applegste, military detec
tive, gentleman thoroughly accomplished IN
his profession, and q man Of energy and intel
lect. Capt. Applegste, after investigation, was
able to telegraph ample intelligence to st. Louis
to which place he ascertained the band Of thieves
who had made such rich prizes in Memphis had
retired. The telegram was placed, at o'clock,
ia the evening in tie hands Of two detectives
of the ST. Louis police, Messrs. John Esgan and
Lawrence. By the next morning these active
officers had arrested no less than seven men i'm
plcated in the Memphis robberies. These men
were yesterday landed in this city from the J. G.
Swon, By the above two detectives.
Six of them were placed in military custody
tha seventh, John Travers, darted off when he
reached the lsvee, running rapidly up Monroe
street, ont to Union, up and down several alleys,
until when in the alley In the rear Of the Gayoso
House, he was overtaken by his pursuers, and
placed in custody with his associates. The
names by which the men are known are Ed.
Wells, JEFF Davis, Robert Black, Thos. Gunley,
John Travis and Mike Dee Besides arIesting
the men, the officers in st. Louis recovered nine
teen hundred and ninety dollars in money, a
quantity Of iewelry and some watches. After
the men were put in the S.. Louis calabOoSe
they cut out an iron bar or two. with a view to
make their escape, but were fortunately caught
in time Capt. Applegate and Messrs. EagaI

southern Intelligence from 'he North.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago llmeE-l
MEMPHIS, July 28 Late advices from the
South By rebel sources are somewhat important.
Ten iron n-clad gunbOats, built in England, and
fully equipped, have arrived off Mobile hsrbor,
and signaled Fort Morgan. Three more are on
the way.
These constitute the feet ordered by the South
ern Confederacy to be purchased in Europe.
They moEnt from ten to thirty guns each, and
are said to be mailed with SIX inch iron, being
regular war steamers in every sense OF the word
Gen. Bragg has been telegTaphed to furnish
three hundred and fifty saamen to man them
with, and orders are being dispatched over the
whole COnfederacy for supplies and munitions
to furnish them equipment.
The commanders will be selected from officers
of the old United States navy who joined the
Confederate service, and have been idle for want
of feet
Their armament consists Of the most approved
modern artillery, and each boat is constructed
with view to ram service.
The blockade was rUn openly by dint Of supe-
rioI strength and weight Of metal, and Mobile Is
considered to be open to the world, with thesup-
port of her newly acquired power.
This remaining vessels viii be on soon.
The above is from an authentic source, and is
entitled to belief
The cargo of the ship which lately ran the
DtOChaut az Cn6IlcStOH was S0lu az aug ustAi "a
last week. 1t consisted of ammunition, arms,
and assorted goods. The cargo cost $500, 900,
and sold for 81 800, coo. The rebels say thst
they have more AIMS and ammunition than they
need.
The greatest enthusiasm is said 20 prevail
among the rebels, who are now more confident
than ever of success at Richmond, and the large
increase of their army gives them the belief that
they will receive aid from abroad, while they feel
an inherent strength at horne that they never
fel5 before. The conscTipii0n brings in thOus-
ands Of recruits daily.
About seven hundred refugees from Memphis
are at Grenada, Organizing themselves into guer-
rilla parties. They are furnished with then
equipments by Mississippians and are designed
principally to operate against Memphis.
Intelligence was received last night that Grand
Junction is In the hands of Gen. Bragg. I can
not state the fact with certainty, but know that
he is moving with bis army, which numbers
| probably so 900 men, if not more. Gen Grants
| army is concentrated at COrinth, which, if the
/ above news is true, places the rebels between
| him and Memphis. There is a large force here

THE STAY-AT-HOAiES-The Richmond En-
guirer has the following wholesome and sensible
remarks, which it is hoped viii be read with
profit by certain class of individuals:
owe tell the peopls that it is necessary to fill
up and strengthen our army without delay. We
look to the government to exeTciseits power with
becoming energy in bringing forward the levies
called for by the couscript law. We appeal to
public sentiment to reinforce the call Of the 60
vernment with its almost omnipotent power. We
appeal to the lGdieS-whOse influence and exam
pie have been the glory of this war-to exert
that influence in urging every nsn to bis duty.
1t cannot be possible that those who have bro
theirs in the field, can receive with any pleasure
the attentions of the trembling stay away, or
listen with compacency to their haIdu g excuses.
He who is good at making On excuse, said
Franklin, is seldom good at anything else. Let
maids and metrons unite their efforts aud their
influence to urge all who, for whatever reason,
have hitherto delayed to rush to the post of duty
now
"What magnificent programme OF opera
tions, running into splendid advantages and
| speedy peace, might eur generals this day mark
out for swift execution, il we only had the men
in our army, who ought to be there, but who are
now shirking their duty! What shame! What
betrayal of their country

arrived here on Saturday, having been uucondi-
tionally released states that, for ten days af.er
the battles in front Of Richmond, enc thousand
rebel troops passed through that town daily On
their way to Richmond, and more were on their
way. The doctors window overlooked the rail-
road and depot, and gave him = coed opportu-
nifty to ascertain what was going on there The
troops came frOm James island and Eastern
Georgia. Among other facts, tho doctor ascer-
tanned that II 600 troops were at CbaT0ttesvilie
waiting transportation to Richmond; that 80 900
cOnserpts had been raised in each Of the States
of Tennessee and Georgia since the 9Th Of July.
and pTOp0rtiOnate number in the other extreme

Goodman, who commands the pOsrtf Salisbury.
and who had Just come from Richmond state
that the adjutsnt Of Gen. Hill told him that the
rebels had l73,OO0 troops engaged in the seven
days battle.
He was accompanied by Dr. Stone, who was
taken prisoner at Bulls Run, and who corro50r-
stes the statement as far as it relates to ths
movement Of troops on their way to Richmond.
They passed long trains Of empty cars on their
way South. II their statements are true, and
there is every reason to believe they are, it shows
the rebels stalking their al on this State, By
concentrating within its borders an oTeIwheLm-

The boats to-day brought down four hundred

ing seven hundred yet to come.
