THE NEWS.

Gen. GRANT has informed the War De-
partment that the rebel army holds o strong
position between the North and South Anna
rivers, where they appear to be concentrated,
and that it will require two or three days to de-
velop his intentions. The Richmond papers,
in their comments on the campaign have init
mated that a great and decisive battle would
probably be fought between these two rivers.
The report in the news dispatches that LER
was crossing the Sonth Anna, conflicts with
STANToN's, and cannot be true.
The rebel dispatch from Mobile that
BANKS had escaped to New Orleans with
only 5000 men-that Alexandria has sur
rendered to TAYLOR, with 5000, &C., is
false, and, like the order of LEE, which we
printed yesterday, announcing the surrender
of STEELE, was intended simply to keep up the
spirits of his men for the contest with GRANT
Nothing has appeared showing the desperate
straits of the rebels more forcibly than LEES
order and these rebel dispatches.
Secretary STANTON said yesterday 1t would
take several days to develope the operations
between the North and South Anna, and conse-
auently we are without important news from
this quarter.
There is a rumor from SHERMAN that may
be well founded that reinforcements have been
sent from JOHNSON to LEE and BEAUREGARD.
The radicals of Missouri have concluded
to send delegates to the Baltimore Convention.
Nebraska has gone for LINCOLN.
GRANT has been making another important
flank movement, which brings him within ten
or fifteen miles of Richmond. Finding the
rebels in full force and strongly intrenched be-
tween the North and South Anna, GRANT re-
crossed the North Anna, came down and cross
ed the Pamunky river at Hanover Ford, and
now occupies line about three miles from
Hanovertown on the south side of the river,
and only ten miles above the White House,
which was Gen. MCCLEILAN's base of supplies.
The Pamunky is navigable nearly to Hanover
town, although the White House has always
been considered as practically at the head.
GRANT will have no difficulty in getting sup
plies from either of these points. We believe
it is clear, open country from Hanovertown
to Richmond. The newspapers speak of q
rapid movement towards Richmond, but they
are not borne out by the official dispatch.
Gold Monday was at 931a-the highes
figure yet attained.

Major General Wallace announces the re-
suit of the court martial recently convened in
Baltimore for the trial of Major George This
Teton, of the First Maryland Cavalry, that he
was found guilty of the charge of "being in
the habit of associating intimately and publicly
with Infamous women and prostitutes during
the past winter and spring, so as to bring dis
grace upon himself and the service, and to
subject his encampment to scenes disgusting
and disreputable to his regiment. and that the
sentence of the court is that he "be dismissed
the service"

Spain for the body OF Col. ARoUELLEs with
polite refusal. There could have been nothing
further said by the Spaniard after that answer
was made. Instead of doing 80. Mr.. SEWARD
promptly replied to the Spanish Minister that
ABauELLEs would be secured and given up
when suitable officer was sent sent on to re-
ceive him. The next that is heard of him is his
arrest by Marshal MURRAY, of New York, and
his forcible and secret conveyance on board a
steamer, which carried him back to Cuba. The
Secretary of State has permitted to be pub
lished the official correspondence in relation to
this strange case, and in letter to District At
torney HALL he claims that the proceedings of
the Marshal who made the arrest "were taken
by direction of the President of the United
States" This fact, however, does not appear
in the correspondence, nor, if it did, would it
lessen the irregularity and unlawful character
of the act of extradition. In the words of the
World, touching the published letters:
There is no legal evidence of guilt produced
in Washington or elsewhere; there is no eXecu-
tive license to judicial officer to order the
arrest; there is no examination into crime
committed, or identity of the alleged criminal,
according to the forms of law there is no
warrant of extradition issued by him. Every
thing is Illegal, from beginning to ending.
More than that, everything is humiliating to
the honor and the power of the United
States.
The New York Tribune says of the course
of the administration
Of course, we are glad the rascal is sure of
his deserts, and especially glad that other ex-
otto scoundrels have received warning that q
mere escape to this country will not secure
them impunity in their crimes. We have a
good many more gentlemen of this class so
jOurning among US already than we want, and
would be happy to see the number safely di-
minished. And yet-and yet-we should
greatly prefer to see these matters regulated
by law than by executive dictum. We hold up
both hands for a law authorizing the President
to extrude and surrender fugitive felons at his
discretion; but doing it without law is quite
| another matter. Does Gov Seward happen to
remember the case of the Bambers?
After the arrest and spiriting away of Argu
Giles had become public, Gov. SEYMOUR in
structed the District Attorney of New York to
inquire of the Secretary of State by what au'
ttority person entitled to the privilege Of
asylum which our government has ever &C
corded to foreign fugtives, had thus been
dealt with. Gov. SEYMOUR and the people Of
| the United States have their answer. 1t is an
other case of military law. The deed was done
in defiance of law, usage and the obligations Of
national honor, "by direction of the President
of the United States'

A Novel Plea,

A judge relates the following incident
that occurred in his practice;
He was trying petty case in which one
OF the parties was not able to pay consel
fees, and undertook to plead his own cause.
But he found, in the course Of the trial,
that the keen and adroit attorney who
managed the case for the other party was
too much for him in legal strategy, evident
y making the worse the better cause. Tho
poor man, Mr. A., was in a state of mind
bordering on desperation, when the oppo.
sing counsel closed his plea, and the case
was about to be submitted to the Justice
for decision. May it please your honor. ;,
said the man, May pray?" The Judge
was taken somewhat by surprise, and
could only say thai he saw no objection
Whereupon Mr.. A. went down upon his
knees, and uads fervent prayer, in which
he laid the merits of his case before the
Lord in avery clear and methodical state
ment OF all the particulars, pleading thar
right and justice might prevail.
20 Lord thou knowest that this lawyer
has misrepresented the facts, and thou
knowest that it is so and so"--to the end
Of the chapter. Arguments which he could
not presentin logical array to the under
standing ofmen, he had no difficulty ad-
dressing to the Lord, being evidently
better yersed in praying thar pettifogging.
When be rose from his knees, Esquire w,
the opposite counsel, very much exaspera-
ted BY the turn which the case had taken
said: "NIr. Justice, does not the closing ar
gnment belong to meg" To which the
judge replied: "You can close with prayer
If you please Esquire w, was in the
habit Of praying at home, but not seeing.

with his practice. wisely gorsbore, leaving
Mr. A. to win his case. as he did, by this

SOMEBODY'S nAnLINc.

INro ward Of the whitowashod halls,
Whore the dead and dying lay,
Wounded by bayonets, shells and balls,
Somebody's Darling was bornc one day
Somebody's Darling, so young and so brave,
Wearing yet ON his pale, sweet face,
Soon to be hid by the dust Of the grave,
The elmgcring light ofhis bcyhooi's grace.
Matted and damp hrc the cpris Of goli
kissing the snow of tha, fair young brow,
Pale are the lips Of delicate mold
Somebody's Darling Is dying now.
Back from his beautiOl blue-veiued brow
Brush all thv wandering waves OF gold.
Cross his hands on his bosom nor,
Somebody's DArlmz is s,ill and cold,
Kiss him once more for Somebody's sake,
NIurmur prayer soft aud low;
One bright curl from It's fair mates take,
They were Somebody's pride you know;
Somebody's hand hath rested there,
Was ita mothers soft and white?
And have the lips Of sister fair
Been baptized in the waves oflght?
God knows best he has Somebody's love;
Somebody's heart enshriu0d him there
Somebody S waited his name above
Night and morn ON the wings Of prayer.
Somebody wept when he marched away,
Looking SO handsome, brave and grand
Somebody's kiss ON his forehead lay,
Somebody clung to his parting hand.
Somebody's waiting and watching for him
Iearning to hold him again to their heart
And there he lies with his blue eyes dim,
Aud the smiling child-likc lips apart.
Tendcrly bury the fair young dead,
Pausiug to drop on his grave a tear;
Carve ON the wooden slab at his head,
"Somebody's Darling slumbcrs here"
