Gen. Banks Heard From.

General Banks expedition arrived at New
Orleans on the. 14th inst. General Banks
supersedes General Butler in the command
Of that Department. The following is from
the latest advices from New Orleans:
On the 10th, Butler and General Banks
met at headquarters. General Butler wei
coined Banks to the Department Of the Gulf
and assured him he would find here troops
who were ready to yield cheerfuly to every
order. Banks responded that the only pleas
ure he had in taking the command was ir
obligation to the order of the Government o.
the United States. -
General Butler addressed his staff, request
ing each member to take pains to enlighter
and assist their successors. He spoke in thu
most generous manner of General Banks ant
staff. s.
General Buffers parting address to the
troops bears date 18th. abiding in eloquent
terms to their successes in the field and in
restoring order and quiet in New Orleans, tc
the feeding of starving wives and children Of
enemies, stating that that expedition had
cost the Government less, by four-tifths, than
any other. Speaking of the wold farewell
as the only sorrowful thought he had, and
commencing them to their commander as
worthy of his love.
On the 10th General Banks issued his or.
der assuming command Of the Department OF
the Gulf and State of Texas, and naming bis
Staff, whose names are already known at the
North.
Another order is for ALI military and civil
officers in the department to report to him,
and still another suspends all public sales OF
property on account of the United States till
further orders.
General Banks was pushing things with
characteristic energy. Fifty thousand troops
who had accompanied him had landed a,
Baton Rouge and the remainder of the expe.
diton will be sent forward as fast as they
arrive.

EMANCIPATION IN MIssoURI-A friend writ
ing us from Jefferson City, the capital Of
Missouri, says: "The probability now is
that Slavery will get its quietus in this State
this winter, in some shape or other. 1t seems
to be the universal opinion that it is oEly a
curse to the State, and the sooner it is remov-
ed the better. There are two parties, how
ever, the Gradual Emancipationists and those
in favor of Compensated Emancipation. II
Congress should give the State aid, for the
purpose of buying her slaves, I think the
State would accept it, and it would be good
economy on the part of the General Govern.
ment to do so, for there would not be req, l.
ed large standing force to compel submis-
sion as is now the case.

CAPTURE OF TIE STEAMER ARIEL BY THE
PRIVATE ALABAMA.-Onth the 9TH of last month
the private Alabama captured the California
steamer Ariel outward bound, consequently
securing only $l2 900 in specie. The account
says that Scmmes first intended burning the
Ariel and putting the passengers ashore at a
little settlement Of huts on San Domingo
Island. Captain Jones protested against
this, declaring that half the passengers would
die in consequence. Semmes then proposed
to land them at Kingston but after much
parleying an arrangement was effected to re-
lease the steamer on her giving bonds in the
sum of S2Ss, 600, payable thirty days after
the acknowledgement o: the Confederacy.
1t appears that Semmes was looking out
for the steamer Champion when he fell in
with the Ariel.
Before overtaking the Ariel Capt. Semmes
fred blank cartridge at her and afterwards
a shell which struck her forcmast, nearly cut
ting it in two. Hereafter the treasure is to
be brought from Aspinwall to New York by a
U. S. Steamer of war. a.

A SCRAP OF IOWA HISTORY.

The Great Fight Between IIalleck and
Stanton.

q SlAntOns
A week or more ago Washington "spcc
ials " threw out vague hints that there had
been quarrel betwccn.two high officials at
the seat Of government, which ended in q
regular set.to. The Cleveland Plain Dealer,
after considerable trouble ard expense, has
got at the truth Of the matter:
Our special correspondent at Washing.
ton sends us somewhat full account of the
late light between Halleck and Stanton, men,
toned in the last letter Of the Worlds cor
respondent. The affair took place in the
War Department buildings, and was an ex
cecdlngly spirited one But for the timely
iliterterence of the authorities, it might have
resulted in the utter extinction of the COM
batants 1t had no connection whatever with
political or warlike matters, having grown
out OF little misunderstanding in regard to
a commercial transaction. 7a..
1t seems that Halleck and Stanton had
traded jack-knives insight and unsecn;' and
halleck being cheated thereby, wished to
trade back. To this Stanton would not agree,
and consequently Hal. got mad all Of a sud-
den, and told Stanton that if he would not
trade back he'd whip him. Ed. rctorted that
the Halleck who could whip him wasn't yet
born into the world, and followed up this as
sertion with sound kick in the rear of the
cnemy's works. -saa .-.t
The battle now became general. Halleck
co:nmenced operations by throwingo out skirm.
ishers in the shape Of bunch of fives,"
that were landed under Eds left pepper
Ed. then opened on his adversary an emilia
ding. fire of ink-stands and paper weights,
which, however, were aimed too high, and
lid no damage beyond the demolishing of a
few lights of glass. AT this moment there
was molnentary cessation of hostiities-.
I'd inistakmg portion Of Halls shirt, that
irooped from the rear Of his position, for a
lag of truce. }ag.e- aa.s| 'aa~ 4
Hal. took advantage of this mistake to un-
iertake o flank movement; but by so doing
ne unwittingly exposed his rear to another
errlfic attack, and was forced to make pre-
clpitate retreat. Fortunately, at this mo.
nent the police arrived upon the spot, and
put qnietus on further operations; other.
wise there's no knowing what might have
AIKEN place. The parties were just about be-
ng lodged in the station house, when Lin
'oln went bair' for their appearance at
:ourt, and thus the matter ended for the
inc being. Both sides were badly cut up
