fishers.
In this sccond edition of this standard work,
the cases which have been made public in the
.ast five years have been introduced, and the
whole work carefully revised. Several passages
from the tirst edition have been rewritten, aud
occasional additions made. with a view IL
greater clearness. The author has not, how.
ever, found II necessary to change any material
itstemcnt OF law.
On the other hand 1t is proper TO say, in moro
than one instance, conclusions which were al
the time Of the publication of the FIRST edition
against the apparent weight of judicial opinion,
have been vindicsted by later cases. Therefore
this may be considered a standard work. 1t is

ARTIST FUND SOCIETY oP New YoRK.--
Those Of our readers who may visit New York
during the present month may like to know
that II very line collection of paintings Is now
ON exhibition there, at the Derby Galleries on
Broadway, just above Houston street. II num-
bers over two hundred pictures and other
works Of art, and is exhibited for tho benefit of
the Artists Fund Society, Of that city. Seventy
of the pictures, being the contribution to the
Fund itself, will be sold at auction on the
evening of the 2ist of December, the proceeds
of which -alc will be appropriated to the Fund.
The object Of the Society Is to assist disabled
aud sick members and aid the families OF de-
ceased members. Each member Is required to
furnish annually picture Of the value of hfty
dollars, and any person throughout the coun-
try who complies with this requirement may

Among the most noticeable paintings on ex-
hibition Is Rosa BoNuEUR's Horse Fair"
probably the finest work Of the kind ever
painted; WAsHINuIoS ALLsros's "Prophct
jeremiah" COLES Italian Autumn" CoN-

sirable and valuable works, 1t seems 10 III
that no more appropriate aud desirable Christ

better time for obtaining one could be fount

utmost capacity. 1t was literally packed. Not
only all the permanent seats were occupied,
but the available spaces In the parquette were
filed with chairs that accommodated an extra

with n perpendicular audience. The private
boxes were full, Secretary Seward and party
occupying one Of them. It was, In truth, the
fullest house OF the season-thc people flying
from the exagserations and afiectations of the
emotional drama to the graceful feats, the
poetry OF motion, and the amusing pantomime
of the Ravel troupe for relief.

GEN. GILLMORE's TREATMENT o

1t has been charged in the public prints that
Gen. Gilmore treated the colored troops Of his
command differently to the white troops, and
made them do all the hard work, &c.
We have recently seen private letter from q
responsible officer in Gen. Gillmore's depart
ment, in " which the writer states that the OH
GERS Of the colored regiments there are much
incensed at tue charge. They deny that the
colored soldiers have been treated as menials,
and do not consider themselves in command OF
menials.
The same duties arc required Of them as the
white regiments, and they have the same hours
for drill, guard mounting, parades, &c. Ii ID
acknowledged in that department that the true
way to solve the experiment with colored
soldiers Is to put them On the same military
footing. The solution has been highly salts

We Iud in the last New Orleans g. ro-

L. s. District Court, before Judge Durell, In
New Orleans.
General Charles !. Stone, Chief Of Stad to
Major General Banks, and at present In com.
mand of the Department, was yesterday citeu
before the United States District Court 10 snow
cause why he should not be punished Tor con-
| tempt Of court, In interfering WIN the oihcers

and defended himself. The facts shown were,
| that the Alabama, prize, condemned and ap-
praised, had been offered ior sale, and was In
| The hands of the United States Marshal, pend
ing negotiations with the navy, which branch
OF the service was desirous of obtaining il. But
rs the appraisement was rather high, the navy
took time TO consider. Gen. Stone was In need
Of vessels to send supplies 10 the front, and-in.
formed the naval authorities that If they did
not want the vessel he would take II for the
Government, and pay the appraised price. The
navy yielded to him, and he sent workmen
aboard TO III the vessel up for immediate use
aud with all speed. The United States Marshal
learning that workmcn were on the Alabama
repairing her, went down to the landing and
ordered them of, putting his deputies aboard
The General was Informed Of this, and al
once sent a file of soldiers down, arrested the
marshal's deputies, and took charge of the
vessel. The deputies were released, and the
vessel was loaded with supplies and sent of to
the army. but she had been detained one day
by this difficulty. The District Attorney (Mr
Waples) was Informed by the Marshal of what
had occurred. and took the rule on the General
a. stated above, for contempt. 1t was promptly
0beyed, and upon the assurance Of Gen. Stone
that he intended no disrcspect to the Court oil

munds Of military necessity to take possession
of IL. in order TO forward supplies to our sol

the Court, in order to maintain its own diguit,
and high character, told him he had acted lille

that no disrcspect was intended, ii would har'
