EDITOR HAwK-EYE:-In this MORNINGS
Hdwk-Eye you pronounce it a good sug-
gestion to give General Butler the com
mand of the Department of which General
Curtis has been relieved. Why change
commanders every few daysf General
Schofield is now in command of that De-
partment. If change is made, why not
make one at our great Capitalf We make
another suggestion. Give General Butler
the place which has been held so long al
ready by the snail-swift Halleck and leave
the other Generals in their commands
We think a little change in Washington,

ENORMOUS BUsINEss.-For some time
past the transactions at the New York
Bank Clearing House have amounted to
three hundred and fifty millions and up
wards week. The Bank clearings, If we
understand correctly, represent the
amount of checks on one Bank deposited
in another-the Clearing House being the
place where they mutually balance ac-
counts each day. These checks represent
actual business transactions, but not ali
the business. The same check, for instance
may pass through number OF hands and
make a part of several payments before
reaching any bank. Where checks pass
among persons doing business at the same
bank, and are deposited there, they DO not
appear at the Clearing House at all. And
besides these there are all the innumerable
transactions for cash, among men who 90
little or no business through the banks
All these together build up the business OF
New York to a sum much larger than that
represented by the Clearing House. -Four
hundred millions weekly is probably with
in. rather than above, the true amount
And that is a sum so enormous that few
can realize it's vastness.

EDITOR HAwK-EYE:-The facts in the
case of the robbery of Mrs. McCray, which
has excited so much interest in this and
Louisa counties, have at last come to light.
Your readers are already aware that her
residence, in this township, was entered at
night and about $40 forcibly taken from
her possession. Wesley Benner, living in
Louisa County, and John Tull, living near
Mrs. McCray, and her son-in-law, were
first suspicioned and arrested. They were
brought before Esquire Seeds, charged with
larceny, who, after hearing the evidence,
discharged Tull, who was thought by all to
be the most guilty of the two, but bound
Benner over TO appear at the next term Of
Court under a bond OF $500, not quite twice
as much as the amount stolen. The
Esquire, ascertaining few days after
that he had read the wrong page Of the
Code" had them re-arrested on the
an examination, but could get no one to
vouch for them and We're safely lodged
in Jail at Burlington.
Constable Smith, who is generally awake
in such cases, managed by eyeS-drOpping
and other dishonorable ~ means to find
out that they were guilty beyond all doubt,
and finally after they were locked up, Tul1
started instanter for Tul's residence, and
found his share of the money, $ll7, conceal
ed in the stable, precisely where he had di
rected. Although Tull had not implicated
Benner, Smith went to see his wife, and
telling her some things he knew, and some
he didn't know, she was led to disgorge
Sis, which was in the house, concealed in
the lining of a vest. Constable Smith man
aged the case admirably, and deserves
Ecredit for his adroitness and energy in the
affair. The amount of money stolen, was
$267, all recovered but S35, half of which
was worthless, and was sunk by the rogues
in the Iowa river. After Benner found that
Tul had ''blowed," and Smith gone in
search of the money, he confessed every
thing, but too late, as the money was al
ready in Smiths hands. The offenders full
ly realize that ''the way of the transgressor
is hard" and seem to be completely tanned,
and the consciences of our citizens, are set
at rest by their confession. D. E. P.

- We have heretofore published the

testimony against him before the Court
Martial. Below we give the finding and

order of Gen. Burnside:
The Commission, after mature delibera-
ton on the evidence adduced, and the state
ment Of the accused, find the acsused,
Clement l.. Vallandigham, u citizen of the
State of Ohio, as follows:

''That propositions by which the North
ern States could be won back, and the
South guaranteed their rights under the
Constitution had been rejected the day be-
fore the last battle of Fredericksburg, by
Lincoln and his misunderstanding, there
by, the President OF the United States, and
those under him in authority; and the
words, asserting that he firmly believed,
as he asserted six months ago, that the
men in power are attempting to establish
despotism in this country, more cruel and
more oppressive than ever existed before" }
"Guilty."
And as to these words, mot Guilty"

And the Commission do therefore SEN

ham, citizen of the State OF ONO, 10 be

ress of the United States, to be designated
by the commanding officer of this Depart
ment, there to be kept during the continu-
ance of the war.
IT. The proceedings, finding and sentence
in the foregoing case are approved and con-
frmed. and it is directed that the place of
confinement of the prisoner, Clement l..

sentence. be Fort Warren, Boston Harbor.

the 10th, on authority of dispatch from
General Hurlbut, the Commander at Mem
phis, that the rebels abandoned Vicks-
burg on Saturday last, and were endeav-
oring to avoid Grant by running north
east between Big Black and Yazoo rivers.
General Hurlbut was said to have got the
information from citizen of Jackson,
who had reached Memphis.
A Cairo dispatch of the Goth states that
the rebels have evacuated Warrenton (be-
low Vicksburg), first destroying their bat
teries and burning most of the town, and
that it was generally believed at Young's
Point that Vicksburg was also evacuated
These reports as yet lack any further con-
firmation. If true, it is probable that the
rebels are concentrating all their availa-
BILE forces at some point where they hope tc
overwhelm that portion of Grants army
now on the east side Of the Mississippi, il
they deem themselves strong enough. Il
not strong enough in their own opinion fol-
that, then they are making an absolute re-

+ SOUTHERN BLooD.-The Mobile Register
discourseth as follows of the Southern
blood in Kentucky. 1t is a rather spicy
vein of insanity. According to the rabid
rawlings of the writer, the only genuine evil
dence of ''chivalry and patriotism" is a
willingness to become traitor! We are
glad to know that all the 'crean'' of that
sort has left that State. We shall be still
more rejoiced when we learn that there is
none of it left in any part ofthe whole coun-
try:
The true Southern blood of Kentucky, we
now believe, has left the State, and fled
from tyranny and white slavery to the
Southern Confederacy. This is the cream
of Kentucky's chivalry and patriotism
What is left is but SKINNED milk, if we
may judge from the tame submission, or,
at least, fitful and feeble resistance, to the
degrading wythes which Lincoln is daily
binding around their once free and manly
limbs. Men who required more than three
months to leap to arms to resist dishonor
and despotism, with q disciplined army of
thirty thousand men on the spot to rally
to, could not have very keenly felt the dis
honor or the despotism.

&s-A negro slave was tried the other
day, at Louisville, KY, for shooting a

one hundred and seventy-five stripes

has the audecity, not only to possess fire
arms but actually uses them upon one of
the white Kentucky Chivalry. If white
man had shot another in that locality the
penalty,-unless the jury was bribed-
would have been death or long term of
imprisonment. But negro is only pun
ished with few lashes-something he is
doubtless accustomed to, and which will
not give him any lasting inconvenience

JUDGE LEAvITT.-The Vallandigham-
mers will probably endeavor to convince
the ignorant that the opinion we published
yesterday, in which Judge Leavitt denied
the writ Of hobeas corpus to their great chief,
is the opinion of an Abolition Judge. &C.,
&c. tits therefore proper to say that Judge
Leavitt is one of the oldest of the District
Judges of the United States, that he is, and
always has been democrat, and that he
was appointed to his present position by
President Jackson, himself. His decision
is that of Judge, doubtless, and not of a
partisan; but it is well enough to know
that, if moved by partisanship at all, his
sympathies would have been enlisted in
favor of Vallandigham, if the latter is a
democrat. But thee truth is that Vallandig-
ham is simply an unadulterated traitor,
and, to q Jackson democrat, such man is
an object of utter adherence. We cannot
doubt that Judge Leavitt holds him, and
all like him, in just such scorn as old Jack
son would. 1t is the scorn of the true DEM
ocrat and patriot for a reptile who is the
the deadliest enemy of both democrats and
patriots. It. 49,.

ALLEGED BEREAVEMENT OF 81 900
SINGULAR AFFAIR.-One Robert B. Ted
ford was yesterday before Justice Young
on the charge Of having embezzied 81 200,
in United States Treasury notes, from An
drew Montgomery. The latter, horse
dealer from Burlington, Iowa, was put
upon the stand and made oath to substan-
TALLY the following statement of facts:
A few days since he arrived on board
the Sucker State, from Burlington, having
with him thirteen horses to sell in ST.
Louis. At Hannibal, Missouri, Tedford
came on board and was recognized by
Montgomery as an old acquaintance and
fellow-townsman of Burlington. The two
occupied the same state-rOom till the boat
reached st. Louis, and then went together
to Wiles IL Woodruff>s sale stables, where
Mr.. NJ. soon sold his horses to Mr.. Phil
lips for 81, l66. The sum of $l66 was paid
at once and in few moments the remain
ing 81, 200, in an envelope, was placed in
Montgomery's hand, and by him deposit
ed in his inside vest pocket. TedtOrd then
invited him to walk, took him to the City
Hall saloon, at Third and Green streets,
treated him, very solicitously warned him
of. the danger, of losing his money, and
most earnestly urged that it should be
made secure by entrusting it to him (Ted-
ford) to keep till the following (Thursday)
morning. . 80. -..s...
to hand to II, but suddenly changed his
mind, and restored it to his pocket. The
two then returned to the stable and adjoin-
ing saloon, where I. renewed his expostu-
lations, and warnings, and insisted that he
must have the money to take care of for
his friend, who otherwise would be sure to
lose it. Taking him to the water-tank in
the rear, Tedford finally prevailed, and
Montgomery gave him the 81 600 package,
Immediately after which the recipient was
missing. M. soon took alarm and sought
T, but failed to find him. The day passed
without seeing him; the following day the
defendant was found. and now fatty de-
MED, with the appearance of injured and
indignant innocence, that he had received
the money, or had ever been in the stable
with M.
Only the testimony above indicated, that
we present simply with the statement OF
Montgomery, was heard yet. The exam
ination will be resumed to-day.-Mo. Dem.

&a-A dispatch from Murfreesboro' states
that the Mobile Register processes to be
greatly incensed about the coming of a new
British Consul to that City, in place of the
one lately removed because of his giving
aid to the rebels. 1t demands that his pres
ence shall not be tolerated. 1t also de-
nounces the British Government in I'M
measured terms, and styles Lord Lyons an
Abolition Minister of an Abolition Gov
eminent sent to an Abolition Administers
.tion, and winds up its maledictions by ac-
cusing the British Ministry with all kinds
of hypocrisy and duplicity! The Registe,
seems to be excited. Something must be
going wrong in the Confederate paradise
Lord Lyons and the British Ministry will
feel bad when they learn that the rebels are
dissatisfied with their policy, and particr-
larry at being denounced as Abolitionists.
Such an appellation will delightthem about
as much as it would one of the Chivalry.
They wouldn't care straw about being
charged with "hypocrisy'-and just as lit
tie for the accusation of ''duplicity." But it
will shock their "gentle blood'' and aris-
tocratic minds to be outraged by being
classed with Abolitionists. IRcy don't be-
lieve White men ought to be free. How
can they be accused of desiring blacks to
be sob Really the Register is too bitter.

rs Stonewall Jackson, the rebels say,
was killed by the mistaken zeal of his own
men in obeying his orders. They seem
very anxious to have it understood that he
did not fall at the bidding of a Yankee bull
let. We are not inclined to believe their
statements, merely because of their asser-
tons. And yet we hope they are true in
this case. We think it perfectly fitting
that traitor should die by traitors bull
let-that those who have been duped into
treason by such leader, should help him
into his grave. A Yankee bullet would
have done him honor. But if the story
they tell be true, it was fit retribution
visited upon MAI, who could not be igno-
rant of the hideous crime he had commit
ted and daily persisted in. The rest of the
leaders in the great infamy, deserve SINH,
lar or worse fate, and we shall not regret
to see it meted out to them at any moment
The sooner they get their deserts the better
it will be for better men.

@-It is said that the rebel officers in
Lees army admit that their losses in the
recent battles were heavier than in any
during the war. Their figures will more
than double ours We have little doubt
that this is the fact, but then it is probable
We shall never get the precise truth about
their loss. They will cover it up in some
way. They don't like to make public the
stupendous cost of their treason.
