house 1t seems that few days since q man
named George Stone, who had been drafted,

drew up papers upon which Stone was ex-
empted on the ground Of being the only sup
port of mother. Stone paid over the specified
amount to Quantrell.
When Stone swore to the papers he alleges
he was not made aware Of their full contents
Quantrill at the same time took charge Of the
substitute, who, it is stated, he subsequently

peared in the list Of those exempted, some per.
sons wrote to Captain Scheetz that there must
have been some mistake about the matter, and

ington, Sept. TO-" The Supreme Court OF the

noon, the required bonds not having been given
by the company; and in the next place, If the

THE SOVEREIGN CAsE.-The whole value of
the sovereigns stolen from John Curry, and
a portion Of VIII ich was found in a trunk in
the house Of detective G. V. Hogan, as stated
Injustice to Mr.. Hogan to say that the trunk
in which the money was found did not belong
to him, but to a servant woman in his employ,
named Ann Moran, and that the statements Of
the parties concerned exculpates him from any
knowledge Of the transaction. Ann, 1t appears,
is the affianced of VIM. O'Brien, who was ar
rested for having one of the sovereigns in his
possession, and who is accused of the rob-
berry. He, it is stated, went to see her one
night while intoxicated, and gave her the gold
