LATER FROM THE NORTH

We have received New York papers Of
Monday, the 18th instant They contain
TO news from Sherman or Nashville.
GRANTS LAST move.
The correspondence from Grants army
gives very little about the recent failure
Of Grant to get a portion of his force
South. A letter says:
The two corps, during the first day,
moved respectively on the Halifax and
Jerusalem roads, both running parallel
with the Weldon railroad, and on We'd
nesday night they formed a junction.
Nothing has been made public regarding
General Warren's destination; but no
doubt of his success is entertained in the
army.
The intelligence of the repulse and
return of this expedition, of the success
of which "no doubt was entertained in
the army,".had not gotten to Yankee
dom on Monday. A paragraph in the
Philadelphia Inquirer shows what was
expected from the movement. 1t SAYS {:
The body Of Federal troops, under
General Warren, which left Grants lines
on Tuesday night, it is now believed is
destined for Weldon, North Carolina.
The distance from Petersburg to Weldon
is sixty-four miles. The troops engaged
in this service were in light marching
order, and they evidently departed e.
pecting to be absent some time.

MAYORS CoURT.-The following is a
summary OF the cases before the Mayor
yesterday:
George, slave of James Wood, charged
with stealing iron from the Old Domin-
ion Iron Works, was ordered to receive
thirty-nine lashes.
William Gentry, hnckster in the Sc
cond Market, was fined twenty dollars
for buying turkeys to sell again. The
fowls were confiscated.
John I. Mathews, suspected as party
engaged in the robbery and killing of
Michael Rourke, again appeared before
the bar to answer that offence; but the
failure to obtain any evidence duplicating
him in the crime caused the Mayor to
discharge him and order him TO rejoin his
command, he being a soldier.

SUICIDE OF WoMAN.-An inquest was
held yesterday morning, by Coroner Lit
tie, over the body of woman of evil
lame, named Dianah j. West, alias Ellen
Fisher, who had committed suicide the
hight before by taking laudanum. The
deceased lived in the eastern tenement of
the building, on Cary street, between
Seventh and Eighth, known as "Soli-
tude, where reside a large number of
other females of the same character
From the mass of testimony elected at
the examination, it appears that the de.
cessed had been drinking quite freely
during Tuesday afternoon: and becoming
somewhat inebriated, she sent one of the
inmates of the house to an apothecary to
purchase some laudanum, which she took
about ten o'clock, and died from its effects
in an hour afterwards Before her death
she confessed to'a party present that she
had taken laudanum but stated that she
had not taken enough to hurt her The
sequel, however, proved her mistake.
In accordance with the facts of the
case, the jury rendered a verdict that Ell
len Fisher came to her death in conse-
quence of taking an overdose of lauda-
mum, administered by herself.

BEAUREGARD REPORTED MOVING ON FORT
PILLOW-A TERRIBLE JOKE ON THE ''Co-
LoRED TROOPS.
A telegram from Cairo, to the st. Louis
Republican, says that Beauregard is
marching on Fort Pillow with siege guns.
Osceola has been occupied by the Con-
federates. The telegram gives the fol-
lowing about another slaughter of inno-
cent colored troops" who rad been
sent out merely to kill few rebels" !:
About twenty five rebels appeared on
the river bank opposite Memphis, waved
their hats and hurrahed for jeff. Davis.
A force of about one hundred and fifty
negroes was sent on board steamer
about mile lower down the river, and
landed. When they filed out on shore,
the rebels broke and ran, apparently in
the greatest CONSERVATION, hotly pursued
by the negroes, till they came to a thick
bush place, where the rebels had large
force secreted, who suddenly rose and
fired on the negroes, when they fled in
the greatest CONSERVATION, the rebels
hotly pursuing and slaughtering them at
a dreadful rate. A number rushed into
the river and were drowned One report
says seven of the negroes returned, and
another says that none got back.
