THE CHESAPEAKE CASE.
JUDGMENT DELIVER ID
The Prisoners to be Surrendered
to the q. s. Authorities.
The Act Denounced rs the
Work of towards and Viii
IainS.

ST.. JOHN, N. B.,Feb. "a
The police magistrate delived judg-
ment to-day in the Chesapeake case, or
dering the prisoners to be committed to
Jail for surrender to the United States
authorities. He said the evidence for
the prosecution discloses that the pris-
oners and other parties captured the
steamer Chesapeake. 1t was the work
of towards and villains The master of
a vessel must have unfettered authority
and obedience from his crew and passen-
gers. The evidence on the part of the
defence diScloses the fact that there is a
terrible civil war raging in the United
States. The only authority given for
seizure of the Chesapeake is that given
by John Parker, and he had no power to
give commissions to others. There was
no authority given in the letter OF
Marque to Parker to transfer his power
to another. He, the magistrate, could
find no justification for the seizure of the
Chesapeake. 1t was piracy, robbery and
murder. 1t was justiceable by the Uni
ted States Courts, and h case within the
extradition treaty.
Application will be made for writ OF
habeas corpus so as to bring the case be-
fore the Supreme Court.

The Advance ON Mobile.

From the Richmond Examiner, Fe6. 1S.
The War Department received yester-
day an official dispatch that the enemy
had made demonstration with gun
beats and land force at Grants Pass,
about thirty-five miles from Mobile
The demonstration was bloodless, as the
fire of the enemy fell short. Grants
Pass is an artificial cut into Pascagou-
la Bay; and there is no doubt the enemy
is attempting this approach to Mobile
from Banks lines and from the Missis-
sippi River. Sherman's column is ap-
preaching by the Mobile and Ohio Rail-
road and third column detached from
Pensacola, is understood to be advanc-
ing on Pollard, which is about forty
five miles from Mobile by rail. The sit
uation of Mobile is, undoubtedly, crit
ical.

ENEMY REPULSED.
From the Richmond Enquirer, Feb. l8

From the Richmond Enquirer, Feb. l8.
A dispatch was received at the War
Department last night, announcing that
the enemy had been repulsed, with great
loss, at Grants Pass, about thirty
miles from Mobile. The attack was
made by infantry, supported by gun
boats, and took place on Tuesday.
From the Richmond Examiner, Feb. 10.
The news from the Southwest is i'm
portant. Sherman continues uninter-
ruptedly to advance upon Mobile by the
line Of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad.
An official dispatch to the War Depart
ment yesterday announces that he has
arrived at Quitman, village on the
Mobile and Ohio Railroad, 100 miles
from Mobile. Though the enemy has not
yet met with any opposition, we feel au-
thorized in saying that he will not be
permitted to take possession Of Mobile
without desperate battle. This ad-
vance of the enemy is beyond compari-
son, the bolaest increment Of the soar. On
the 18th inst, Sherman with between g.
600 and 10000 men, provided with 20
days cooked rations, left Vicksburg and
took up the line of march eastward
tearing up the railroad and bridges in
the rear. Clearly he neditates no step back
tcayds
The moving spirit in this army is one
j. B. Mcpherson, of Ohio, a very young
officer, with the rank in the regular ar
my of junior Captain of the Corps of
Engineers, and the rank in the provis-
ional army Of Brigadier. This is the
man who made Grant famous, and he is
now to try what he can do for Sherman,
who is himself man of ability, and in
every way the superior of Grant. Since
the beginning of the war success has in
variably attended the plans of McPher-
son; it was he who planned the bold
and successful movement on Vicksburg.
We hope his good luck has bred in him
rashness that will be his ruin.
From the Richmond Examiner, FEB. 20.
The following dispatch was received
at the War Department last night.
MOBILE, Feb. 1872 p. m.
! Gen. s. Cooprr, de-.
| Farragut has not renewed his attack
on Grants Pass. His fleet lies off the
Pass in the sound. The weather is too
bad for action. Sherman's corps is not
advancing down the Mobile and Ohio
road. No landing has yet been reported
in the direction of Pascagoula.
D. H. MAuRY, Maj. Gen.
An official dispatch was also received
in the course of the day, which reduces
the enemy's demonstration at Quitman
to very unimportant affair. Former dis
patches ov4rated the enemy force
ecu. Maury reported yesterday that he
had made close reconnaissance of the
enemy's force at that point, (Which is
about 100 miles from Mobile,) and that
it did not number more than thousand
men. The whole affair was probably a
raid on some trestle-work of the Mobile
and Ohio Railroad.
