GLEANIEGs.-(F From the Chicago Times, ID
July.}-The news forwarded by our Camden
correspondent last week, IS contained in the
Times
L thinks the appointment of Mr.. Fossenien
as Secretary Of the Treasury, to succeed Mr
Chssa viii not increase the public confidence a
particle n the financial condition. Mr.. Fessen-
den as Chairman Of ne Senate Finance Commit
tee, is largely r-spou sible for the financial
schemes and financial failure of the war. He
must run the machine as he finds 1t, and upon
the track leading directly and inevitably to ruin.
There was severe fighting in Georgia on the
22d and 23d. The enemy made vigorous as
sault to carry the Confederate works at Kenne-
saw, but without success.
Gen. Hunter is reported 10 have captured at
Staunton nineteen canal boats, containing six
cannons, 5000 rounds of artillery ammunition,
4 ton aud half of powder, and ccmmissary
sores in great variety an1 abundance. Hunter
was repuIsed. and rstraatcI from Lynchburg.
They report that they were met and renu!sed
by Eweil's veteran corps, after two DAYS fght-
ing, ending on the 18th. During that night
they commenced a retreat by way of Salem and
White sulphur, to Gauley, which place they
reached on or shortly after the 9th General
Ewelfs corps did not join in the pursuit They
We're followed alone by McCausland's brigade.
They confess to have lost in the retreat six can
non, two carriages, ten caissons, 100 horses six
men killed and twenty wounded. Their losses
in battle not given.
Private dispatches from New York, july Ist,
report that gold opened at $50 tc 255, and sold
as high during the day as 275, declining again
at 4 o'clock TO 255. Later dispatches gave
lower rates, ranging from 2i0 TO 225.
In Chicago the selling rates tha: day were as
high as $50, ard at the close of the day no quo
tations could be given. as holders were asking
more than buyers would pay. The sudden de-
cline in New York is thought to have been based
on a report that the gold bill had been repealed,
The Paris correspondent of the n. Y. Herald
SAYS that most of the prominent rebels in that
city have gone over 10 England to take steps to

TIE DIsTETCT Court OF THE Con
FEDERATE STATEs.-We have several
times called the attention Of the public
to the expediency Of preserving our civil
government in all its proper forms and
operations. Ii is common saying, as
old as Caesar, that the law Is silent
amidst arms: Such Is generally the ease,
and the more is tie pity. BuL ii would
be a proud thing and well for us, ii in
the midst of SUCH war az never before
resoundcd through The world. our courts
could be regularly held wherever their
territorial jurisdiction is not ohstructcd
by the presence Of the enemy. and if,
while the executive power may be put
tine forth all It's strength in our defence,
tie judiciary should be seen dispensing
evea-handed justice 20 all who may apply,
and using its utmost exertions to main
tain the supremacy of the civil law,
which is cliief support of public and
private virtue.
Our Confederate District Court has
intermittpd Its sessions fora year or more;
but many reasons require the exercise Of
its jurisdiction more than ever before. 1t
is only by its instrumentality that trea-
son against the nation can be legally ac-
cused or punished the conliscation laws
are being evadsd daily to the benefit of
the enemy; Illicit trade calls for repress-
ion and punishment; and in many ways
we are reminded ofthe Importance of this
court in the present emergency. We
think there can hardly be IA doubt but
that its sessions may be held at this
place, since the law relative thereto pro-
vides for the payment of the travelling
expenses of the Judge wherever the court
is held at any point in the district other
than Little Rock. We are not aware Of
the reasons which have caused the sus-
pension of the court, but Judging from
the fidelity and promptitude OF the pre-
siding Judge, we feel assured that it has
occurred from no trivial considerations ;
but we hope soon 10 be able to announce
that this tribunal is reforming its fame
tions, and giving It's powerful aid in the
enforcement of law and the promotion of
the interests Of the country.
