INCREASED PAY OF GENERAL OFFICEHS.

INCREASED PAY or GENERAL OFFICERS.
The bill to increase the compensation Of
the General assigned 10 duty at Richmond,
which elected some newspaper comment
when it was under consideration in the
Senate, has undergone some important
changes. aud at length passed both branches
OF Congress SO much improved IN form that
i.s prOgenitors would not now recognize it
as one OF their own cnspring. 1t WAS sent
body modified so as to include all the Gen
erals in the army. The Senate subsequently
added some unimpOrtant amendments,
which were yesterday concurred in by the
House, and the bill now only awaits the
Presidents signature to become a law. 1t
gives General 500 per month, Lienten-
ant General $3.50, Major General s400, and
Brigadicr General $3.50. Generals in com
mand Of an army to receive $lOO month in
addition, and all others in the field $50
We look upon it as an act Of wisdom in the
House thus to remember those who are
daily tisking their lives ia defence of The
country, and it will no doubt receive the
popular approval; while it might have
seemed invidiOus to have selected an officer
whose good fortune it has been to be as.
signed to duty at the capital as particular
object Of favor, however deserving he may
be.
The bin to increase the pay CT soldiers
was amended by the Senate SO az to make it
applicable only to one year. instead Of a
permanent arrangement, and in that form
has passed both branches OF Congress.

stated that he desired TO make statement.

Honor ordered him to hush, as he had al
ready heard enough to know that, instead
of its being likely to benefit his case, 1t
would greatly injure it. Tie was again com.
mitted to await other transactions which
have not yet come to light.
A free negro man, named Frederick Smith,
was ordered fifteen lashes for using iusolent

Mrs. Brooks, near the corner OF 4th and "a.

free negroes are arraigned for Offences com.
mitted, and there can be no rebuttipg evi-
dence brought forward, there was an array
possessed an uublemished character. A
Confederate Colonel had employed him for
some time, and never knew in his life a
more fAthfnl, obedient servant. This tes-
timOny to his virtues so much affected the
prisoner that he burst into tears and wept

rid trap, set the animal at liberty. For this
Cfience he was taken in custody by Mr..
Jenkins, but offered SO much resistance that
officer Adams had to be called ON to aesist

Mayor ordered Bydenham to be whipped.
The charge preferred against Alexander,
slave Of Ann Newton, Of stealing q vest
from Thomas Boyd, was not sustained, and
he was therefore discharged.
For reasons satisfactory to His Homo u, the
following cases were contiaaed William
