-"Perley," in his last letter from Washington
to the Journal, says that ever since the Presi-
dent was at Fortress Monroe, and directed the
expedition against Norfolk, he has in reality
been commander-in-chief He makes the fol-
lowing important statement:
1t is now said that letter of instructions,
containing programme of operations, was
subsequently sent by the President to General
Mcclellan, and that it was not obeyed, neither
were sufficient reasons assigned for a nom
compliance with the orders thus directly
transmitted. If this is soft what purports
to be copy of this letter, confldentially ex-
hibited here to-day, is genuine, President Lin
coin had no alternative but to relieve General
Mcclellan from his command Obedience to
orders is the first duty of an officer, no matter
what may be his rank.

Libel for divorce. Divorce decreed. The
following opinion was gived by Judge Walton ::
This is a libel by the wife for divorce from
her husband. The cause assigned is, that at
the time of their marriage the husband was
insane and has so continued ever since.
The evidence shows that prior to his marri-
age he was afflicted with what his family then
charitably called and hoped was nothing more
than feelings OF dependency, depression OF
spirits, or deep concern of mind; occasioned
rs they thought, by over study, and allowing
his thoughts to dwell too much and too des-
pondingly upon religious subjects. From this
condition many unsuccessful efforts were made
TO arouse him. In fact this was encouraged
by his friends, in the hope that it might prove
q remedy for the diseased state of mind under
which he was then suffering.
In less than month from his marriage he
attempted to kill his wife, not on account of
any apparent i'll will towards her, for he SEEM
ed to be devotedly attached TO her; but be-
cause, as he said, it seemed TO him TO be his
duty, and he felt an irresistible impulse so to
do; and the attempt was several times repeat
ed.
His insanity increased, and it was found nee
essary to conflne him; and after an investiga-
ton of his case by the city authorities, he was
committed TO the insane hospital at Augusta;
where be has remained most of the time for
the last fifteen years. His disease is regarded
as incurable, and no hopes are entertained that
he will ever be any better.
Insanity occurring after marriage is not
generally regarded as cause for divorce. But
insanity at the time of marriage is generally
regarded as sufficient cause for annulling mar
riages, and is so regarded by our laws
The testimony of highly respectable mem
Der of his own family. and the testimony of
the Superintendent of the insane Hospital, and
the testimony Of many other respectable wit
nesses, and among them an eminent physician
who has known him for upwards of twenty
years, establish the fact beyond reasonable
doubt that the respondent was insane at the
time of his marriage; and for this cause a
dirorce is decreed.

Murder OF One Boy by Another.

The most unaccountable case of murder
that has taken place in this State occurred in
our vicinity last week. A boy of about thir-
teen years of age deliberately killed lad a
little over three years of age by pushing him
into the water. The circumstances of the
case are as follows:
Walter S. Jordan, the murdered boy, three
years and four months of age, is a son of Mr..
Scott d. Jordan, keeper of the poor house and
town farm in Cape Elizabeth. One of the in
mates of that poor house is boy about thir-
teen years of age named Isaac Smith. On the
LIST of November Jordan sent Smith down to
a turnip patch, near small creek, and his
little son went with him. In the course of the
forenoon Smith returned to the house without
the boy. On being asked where Walter was,
he replied that the last he saw of him he was
going towards the house, and asked if he had
not returned home? Mrs. Jordan, becoming
alarmed, called to a neighbor who was pass
ing, and requested him to search for her boy,
fearing he might have fallen into the creek.
The neighbor took Smith with him down to
where he had been at work. After arriving at
the place Smith remarked, 'he can't be here,
for he has not been here" and urged the
search in another direction. In prosecuting
the search the man found Jordan's cap, caught
upon something. He then went into the
stream-Smith still insisting upon searching
in another direction-and waded it until he
found the body Of the boy.
Tho how ua hnr;od M sue,,;o;o,. ho-.,.
been entertained that he came to his death by
violence. Subsequently, repeated converse
ton with Smith by the parents and friends of
young Jordan, led to suspicion that the boy
was murdered. Mr.. Jordan examined the
place where the boys had been at work. and
found tracks of both leading to the place
where the body was found. Smith then owned
to Mr.. Jordan that he had pushed Walter into
the creek On being asked if the boy, when
he rose from the water, called for his father
and mother, he replied no, that he gasped and
struggled-imitating the gasping OF drown
ing person-and that he, Smith, made no effort
to save him.
No cause can be assigned for this murder.
Smith himself assigns none He was thought
by Mr.. Jordan and his family to be well be-
haved lad, and had been reprimanded but once.
He was brought before the Municipal Court
yesterday for examination. The Court re-
quested Benz. Kingsbury, Jr., Esq, to act as
counsel for him. On consultation with the
lad he acknowledged to Mr.. Kingsbury the
fact of pushing the boy into the creek. By
advice of bis counsel he pleaded not guilty
and waived an examination, and was commit
ted for trial

Brilliant Affair in western Virginia

MooREFIELD, Hardy CO., Va, Nov. 10.
To Governor Pierpont Il left New Creek
Saturday morning, Sth inst, and after con-
tinuous march of twenty-iour hours, a distance
OF about sixty miles, reached Imboden's camp
on the South Fork, eighteen miles south of this
place at 9 IL o'clock yesterday morning.
We attacked him at once and routed him
completely, killing and wouudng many of the
enemy; also capturing his camp and fifty pris-
oners. The infantry were routed and entirely
dispirlted, fleeing TO the mountains.
Their cavalry, unfortunately for us, were
away on an expedition, or our success would
have been complete We burned their camp
and returned to this place this evening. Our
attack was so unexpected and impetuous that
our loss is trifling. Three or four men were
slightly and one severely wounded. None
killed.

FEMALE CHARITABLE SoCIETY.-The 5Oth
Anniversary of this Charitable Association of
Ladies occurs tomorrow evening, on which
occasion discourse will be delivered at the
LIST Parish Church by Rev. Horatio Stebbins
This institution was founded in the midst of
scenes of hardship and privation, while our
country was suffering under the embargo
laws, and was just commencing war with
England. Its first half century anniversary
finds us in the struggle of terrible rebellion.
and the resources of this charitable associa-
ton are now taxed to their utmost extent by
the calls made upon it. We hope there will
be generous response at the meeting to-mor-
row evening, and such contribution taken
up as will cheer the hearts of the devoted
women of this society, and carry comfort to
many suffering family.
