FORTRESS MONROE, Nov. IL.
Peter Smith was brought to Fortress Mon
roe this morning. He is implicated in the
burning of the ship Aleghanan.
The Richmond Wing of the 10th, says, Van
Dorm takes upon himself the responsibility for
the failure in his last battle at Cornth. He
says it arose neither ftom the fault of his Off
GERS or men, but was his own misfortune
Gov. Browns annual message was read in
the Georgia legislature last Thursday. He re-
ters principally TO topics of State interest. In
special message he takes ground against the
CONSUMPTION law, and submits the subject to
the legislature Tor its action.
The Wing saws the excitement consequent
upon the reported advance of the aboltionists
on Holley Springs has subsidized. They did
not come this side of Lamar, Miss.
The Raleigh, n. c., Register entertains no
doubt that movement is to be made against
the railroad running from Wilmington to
Petersburg, and that Weldon is TO be the point
attacked. The inhabitants of Tarboro' and
the adjacent counties are running off as fast as
they can. The enemy, $4,000 strong, is within
Is miles of Scarboro.
The blockaders off Wilmington, says the
Wing, fired upon and destroyed a bark loaded
with SALT while endeavoring to run the block
AIDE. Twenty-three Yankees came OH shore to
finish the work of destruction, and were cap
tured and sent to Fort Fisher. The bark was
from Nassau. 1t also says that the Yankees
have advanced in force upon Highland Coun-
ty, Va, about 40 miles from Stanton This
is part of the plan by which the abolitionists
expect to crush out the rebellion in Virginia
The Richmond Enquirer of the 10th, says:
Significant movements are progressing along
the entire line of Gen. Lees army. Startling
events seem to be rapidly approaching, prom
ising in reality sharp and decisive winter
campaign.
1t is reported that Gen. Jackson was yes
terday on the verge Of battle in the Shenan-
doah Valley, with greatly superior numbers of
the enemy.

Supreme Judicial Court.

OCT. FERMENTATION, j., PRESIDING.
WEDNEsDAY-The divorce case of Shat
tuck VS.. Shattuck was continued. At the adj
journment of the Court Tuesday evening Mr..
Shattuck, the respondent, was on the stand.
Wednesday morning he underwent a severe
cross examination. Mrs. Shattuck, the libel
liant, was then placed upon the stand. In the
most emphatic manner she denied all that had
been testified to in regard to her conduct.
She said but for this matter having been bruited
round by the respondent and his friends, much
to her discredit, she never would have sought
to make it public by a jury trial. She chose
this course to clear herself from the aspersions
which had been cast upon her. Some other
evidence was taken, and at half-past o'clock
T. NJ it was announced that the evidence was
all in. Judge Shepley then commenced his
argument to the jury for the respondent.
After he had proceeded short time, Court
adjourned to O'Clock Thursday morning.

The ship Tonawanda, released by the Ala
bama, reached Liverpool with the officers and

and brig Dunkirk. No particulars are given
about the Wave Crest
The Times city article says Lord Lyons
took out the full assurance that England will
be eager, in concert with other nations. to pro-
mote the permanent return of peace. She
will meanwhile individually refuse to depart
one hairs breadth from the course of non-in-
reference.
Commodore Wilkes proceedings at Bermu-
da continue to claim attention, and the cap
tain OF the Gladiator publishes letter con-
tanning charges against him for regularly
blockading Bermuda.
The Times argues that it is not for England
to impeach the belligerent right of search,
and says the Federals have not actually ex-
ceeded their privileges. England must make
allowance for their temptations, and put her.
self in their place before pronouncing judg-
ment. The Federals have probably done no
more than England would have done.
The Daily News demonstrates with Presi-
dent Lincoln upon Wilkes appointment, and
recommends his removal.
The screw frigates Galatia and Emerald have
sailed to reinforce the West India squadron.
The Times is glad to see the Democrats
making a show of force, and believes their
success most promising for peace.
The British Consul at Charleston has writ
ten letter to the Foreign Office on the pros
pect of a cotton supply. He estimates the

The provisional Government of Greece has

Mr.. Golden has addressed his constituents
at Rochdale. He spoke at length on the dis
tress Of the Lancashire operatives, and regard
ed it as a national question, and said that If
public and private opinion had proved INSULT
cient, parliament would have to make provi-
sion. He referred to the American war, and
said it would be a waste of time for foreigners
to attempt to influence the combatants. To
interfere or recognize the South would do
more harm than good, and fail to bring for
ward cotton. As to how the contest was going
to end, he confessed his inability to form an
opinion, but if compelled to make guess he
would not make the same guess as that of Earl
Russell and Mr.. Gladstone. He did not believe
if the war should soon be brought to termi-
nation, that it would end by separation of
the North and South. He thought those who
protested so much regard for Italian unity,
ought to appreciate the same unity more in
America. Interference by force would do
more than anything to strengthen the federal
government, and the cost to England in six
months would be more than sufficient to feed
the distressed cotton operatives 10 years. He
spoke of the extravaganza of the Palmerston
government, and advocated retrenchment.
The Times has an article on the action of
the New York Chamber of Commerce, touch
ing the operations OF the Confederate steamer
Alabama. In another article the Times ex-
patiates on the difficulties of the CONSUMPTION.

Capture of bearer of Rebel dispatches.

BALTIMORE, Nov. IL.
The U. S. gunboat Hercules, Capt Dunyan,
arrived here this morning from cruise along
the border of Virginia. On the morning of
the Sd inst, just before daylight, Lieut.. Baker
with an armed boats crew, discovered party
on shore signalling to some rebel soldiers
stationed up a small inlet. Finding that they
were discovered, they took to their boats, and
tried to escape. After half hours chase, a
boat was captured, which was found to con-
tain three men with signal canteens, DC. One
Of the party proved TO be Maj. Reid Saunders,
regular officer in the Confederate States ar
my, and son Of George A. Saunders. The
others were two English sailors. At the
time of their capture, they were expecting a
vessel to convey Maj. Saunders to Europe with
rebel dispatches, and were Signalling for that
purpose. Two English sailors landed from a
vessel from Halifax, N. s., about ten days pre-
vious, which brought over prominent rebel
with dispatches for the rebel government The
vessel which was to convey the rebel dispatch
es to Europe, was lying about four miles out

mediately proceeded out to sea.

TRENTON, n. j., Nov. II.
The inclemency Of the day has kept Gen.
Mcclellan and his friends in doors. He has

scarcely been seen. A few friends from Bor-

saton was exceedingly short and of general
character.

CAUTIoN.-Some persons are going round
to the houses trying to get -four barrels, under
pretence Of giving the proceeds of them to a
poor family. If they cannot obtain them on
this pretence, they will offer ten cents barrel.
This is all deception. These persons are pur-
chasing or obtaining the barrels for speculation.
Messrs. j. B. Brown & Sons, at the Sugar
House, have been paving 25 cents per barrel,
and we believe they are paying that price now.
