The stock market did not vary much last week.
A few descr pii,ps advanced. Pitsburg, on its
resuming it's place among dividend paving secnri-
ties, as on 8 per cent dividend paying stock !;
Michigan Southern, on the discovery that the re-
centissue OF new stock was perfectly regular aud
advantageous to the company; Pacific Mail, on
some cause best known to the parties in that in.
scrutable property and Erie, on an improved de-
mand, partly due to the approaching election
The rest Of the list, as general rule, was pretty
steady. A good deal of speculation is going on in
Illinois Central, Reading, Calena, Rock Island,
&C., with the'prospects thus far evenly balanced
between bulls and bears. Eventually, of course.
paper money must assert its power, and securities
of all kinds must steadily appreciate; but at pre-
sent the market is a "brokers market and no
one can tell from day to day how the current may

good demand, to 671%. When the company begins
to pay dividends, which ought to be before long,

Judge Leaviit's Decision Cited in the
United States Court at indianapolis.

In ho5eos corpus case at Indianapo-
lis, in the United States District Court
presided over by judge CALEB B. SMITH,
formerly of Mr.. LINCoLNs Cabinet-Judge
LEAvITT's decision in the VALLANDIGuAN
case was cited as authority. To this 1--WE
quote the indianapolis Journals, repub-
lican, report) the following reply was
made:
Mr.. r. L. Walpole replied in behalf of Stout.
ne thought the opinion of Judge Leavitt de-
cision OF good man, but weak Judge. 1t
bore marks OF imbecility all through it. If re-
celved by the Court as authority, it ought to
be construed for the benefit of his client
Judge Caleb B. Smith, said:
While he esteemed Judge Leavitt, and had
a good opinion of the decision he had made in
the case cited, he must say that he could not
indorse that part of his decision wherein he
claimed that the courts of the country could
not take cognizance of matters which military
authorities might assume exclusive jurisdiction
over.

The Third Regiment.

On the 18th June, the Third Minnesota
Regiment was at the mouth of White Riv-
er, en- route for Vicksburg. From cor
respondent we learn that the men were
in fine health and spirits. We also learn
of the late operations of the Regiment,
narrative of which we condense for
publication:
Just previous to the Regiment leaving
Fort Heiman for Vicksburg, Major H.
MATTsoN, with detachment of the Third
Minnesota, and the 18th Kentucky caval-
ry, made a successful raid against the
guerrillas in Western Tennessee. and cap
tured several prisoners; among them be-
ing the notorious Col. Dawson. a num-
Der Of instances of cool soldierly conduct
occurred, highly creditable to those imme-
diately engaged. Among them was the
surprise and capture of guerrilla Major
and Captain by JESSE BARRIc1I, of Compa-
ny 81, Third Minnesota He tracked them
from the main road into the brush, and
found them just finishing a lunch. When
within few rods of them, and just as
he caught sight of them, he brought his
gun to his shoulder and took good aim as
if to fire. They called out ''for Gods
sake don't shoot, we will surrender" He
then demanded one of them to advance
and give up his revolver, which he did.
BARRICH then called out to his party o
five men who were few rods behind and
out of sight, to come up. This they
promptly did, and the capture of both was
made secure Each of them was armed
with n revolver. They were taken about
eighty miles South of Fort Holman. Near
Mason's Point, on the Tennessee river.
another small party of the detachment
had skirmish with party Of guerrillas,
in which privates JOHN O. HANCOCK and
F. NJ. JERRY, of Company G, were
wounded, the former quite severely.
The Third Regiment did good deal of
work while at Fort Heiman, and had got
the guerrillas pretty thoroughly extermi-
mated in large region of Tennessee.
We hope to hear good accounts of the
Third in front of Vicksburg,

portant Consultations Completed
and in Progress.

A large number of excursionists visited
our city last week, for the purpose of Gel
ebrating the connection and extension
of several local lines and their re-organi-
zation into new company. under the
style of the Milwaukee and St. Paul Rail-
way. The design of the new scheme is
the union, in single company, of the va
rious Wisconsin roads uniting Lake Mich
igan with the Mississippi, and looking to
connections with the railroad system Of
our State. AS we are informed, the ar
rangement is completed on the part of the
Milwaukee and La Crosse, Milwaukee and
Watertown, Watertown and Madison, Co
lumbus and Portage City, and Horizon
Roads, and that the basis of an arrange
ment with the Milwaukee and Prairie du
CHEN is also definitely agreed upon. This
consolidation covers over thousand miles
of. road, and is by far the most important
railway scheme projected in the West for
wears back, 1t is, OF course, in the inter-
est of Milwaukee; and is the first indica
ton of practical business sense and real
energy lately exhibited by that city. II
carr; ed out, it cannot Iaii to be OF vast

At meeting held at Harrisburg on the
evening of the 18th, General CAMERON
pledged his whole fortune to the defense
of Pennsylvania, and called upon the Gov
ernor to appoint General MCCLELLAN or
General FRANKLIN, Communicating Chief
of the Pennsylvania forces. He blamed
the Government for not sending men to
aid in defence of the Capital, when Penn
sylvania had so literally contributed men
and money for carrying on the war. He
said that while he had every confidence
in the President and the commander of
the department, such men as MCCLELLAN
or FRANKLIN, whose leadership the people
had every confidence in, would rally to
their standard every loyal man. He call
ed upon the Government to send for Gen.
MCCLELLAN, to take charge of the mill
tia of the State.
We give few dispatches, which we find
in the Chicago papers, to show what Gen.
MCCLELLAN was about during the panic:
ALBANY, June 16-Gen. Mcclellan arrived
here this afternoon, and proceeded directly to
Gov. SeymOurs residence. They are in con.
sultation together this evening.
ALBANY, June 16.-Gen. Mcclellan is in AL
bany for the purpose of aiding Gov Seymour
in organizing and sending forward troops for
the defence OF Pennsylvania. About ID 900 are
already secured, and they are beginning to go
forward. The following additional regiments
are under orders to move: Sth, 22d, 56th, 3Oth
and 34th The volunteer regiments whO are
here to be mustered out, offer their services

Position Of the Illinois Democracy.

Elsewhere is given a brief account of
the proceedings of the Democratic State
Mass Convention lately held at Springfield,
Illinois. The resolutions in condemnation
of the infringements upon the liberty of
speech, Of the person, and of the press,
will meet the approval Of right thinking,
conservative men of all parties, and every
where. They do meet such approval, free
and out-spoken, on the part of the better
class of Republicans as we'll as Democrats.
In strange and painful contrast, how
ever, with these bold, just, and patriotic
views, is the craven, disloyal, and I'M
American demand for peace, and protest
against "the further offensive prosecution
of this war;" No wonder that the chival-
rio President Of the Convention, the Hon.
WILLIAM A. RICHARDSON, with the old
DOUGLAS spirit of patriotism in him, pro-
tested against such sentiment as unwor-
thy of Democrats and American citizens.
It is a prostitution of the Democratic
name and organization to commit the
party to a policy so cowardly and base.
Under peculiar circumstances, and in
moment of excitement, such doctrines
may find adherents; but the brave masses
of the people will never tender peace to
rebels, until it can be offered by victorious
hands.

A New and Important Arrangement
for the Protection of the Frontier.

We understand that E. A. G. HATCH,
Esq, of this city, has received from the
President the appointment of Major of
volunteers, with authority to raise bat
talon of cavalry for service against the
hostile Indians and for the protection of
the frontier. This battalion is to be an
independent command, under the exclu-
sive control of Major HATCH, and will be
organized and put into the field as soon as
possible.

The new company comprises many gentle
