Municipal Court---May IL.

VIM. II. Archibald was arraigned on charge
of murder. 1t was the recent case of homi-
eide at the Aims House. VIM. III. Dwinal and
John Burgess testified to the facts of the as
sault. that defendant struck the boy Mulloy
down with heavy pair of tongs, and then
struck him four or five times after he was
down. DR.. I. A. Foster, City Physician, tes-
titled to his attendance on the boy and to the
extent of his injuries. The skull was fractur-
ed severely in two places, the bone being driv-
en- in on to the brain. The boy survived but
one day.
Archibald appears to be an imbecile, holding
his head down in stupid manner. and without
intelligence enough to realize his situation or
what is going on around him. The Court
ordered that there being reasonable cause for
the further investigation of the matter, the
defendant be bound over for the his appearance
at the next term of the Supreme Judicial
Court on the last Tuesday of July next. The
Conrt remarked that Coroner James S. Gould
was called to hold an inquest on the body of
the murdered boy, but when he ascertained
the facts in the case he properly declined to
do so, for the reason that he did not wish to
subject the county to the expense of an inquest
when the facts were SO clear, and especially
that the mental and moral responsibility of
the defendant is so apparent.
Darius H. Insraham, Esq, appeared for the
prisoner by appointment of the Court, and
Henry p. Deaae, Esq, for the State, at the re-
quest of the city authorities.
Patrick Morgan, for assault and battery on
the person of Daniel Black, plead not guilty.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF PoroMAc.
May IL.
The following order has been issued by Mai
Gen. Hooker:-
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF Potomac
May +, 1863
General Orders, No. 40:
The Major General commanding tenders to
this army his congratulations on its achieve
ments OF the last seven days. If it has not
accomplished all that was expected, the reas-
ons are well known To the army. 1t is suf-
ficient to say that they were of character
not to be ioreseen or prevented by human sa-
gacity and resources. In withdrawing from
the South bank of the river, before delivering
a general battle TO our adversary, the army
has given renewed evidence of its confidence
in itself aud its fidelity to the principles it
represents. In lighting at disadvantage, we
would have been recreant to our trust to our
selves, our cause and our country Profound
ly loyal, and conscious of its strength the
army OF the Potomac will give or decline bat
tie whenever its interest or honor may demand.
1t will also be the guardian of its own history
and its own arm. BY our celebrity and secre-
cy OF movement, our advance and passage of
the rivers was undisputed, and on our with
drawal not a rebel returned ID follow The
events of the last week NAV swell with pride
the hearts of every officer and soldier of this
army We have added new laurels to its
FORMER renown; we nave made long marches,
crossed rivers, surprised the enemy in his en-
trenchments, and whenever we have fought,
inflicted heavier blows than we have receiv-
ed. We have taken five thousand prisoners
and fifteen colors, captured and brought of
seven pieces of artillery, and placed hors du
combat eighteen Thousand of his chosen
troops. We have destroyed his depots filled
with vast amounts of stores, damaged his
communications, captured prisoners within
the Notifications of his Capital, and filed his
country with fear and CONSERVATION.
We have no other regret than that caused
by the loss OF our brave companions, and in
this we are consoled by the conviction that
they have fallen in the hottest cause ever sub
miited to the arbitrament of battle.
