1t is supposed to be very large. Wash

The latest European advices give a
report, on good authority, that the
steamship Great Eastern was to be
almost Immediately despatched from
Sheerness to New Fouudland, and
that on the way she would endeavor to

has been determined in England to
attempt the laying of another Atlantic
telegraph next year, making use in
the work of the recovered portions of

SCENES IN THE WRz TR1L.-A
scene of an unpleasant character oc-
Cured yesterday during the trial of
the Wirz case, growing out of exces-
sive zeal or lack of Judgment on the
part OF the prisoners counsel. The
President, of the commission not un-
derstanding the statement of the wit
ness on the stand, asked the latter g.
question, with a view of having him
repeat the statement. Thereupon
Mr.. Baker, defendants counsel, in q
petulent tone and offensive manner,
broke out: II do wish the court would
not interfere with the witness while I
am examining him. I have difficulty
enough to make out my case against
this kind of testimony, without being
subjected to these Interruptions of the
court: " This ugly temper was al
lowed to pass without rebuke and in
few minutes it broke out afresh, the
witness Kellogg, in making his state
ment, said: u came near being shot
myself" Mr.. Baker, in an improper
manner, ordered the witness to stop.
The court Informed the attorney that
this was not proper way to examine
a witness. Baker replied insultingly,
concluding his remarks with these
words: Nobody was hurt, yet some
body must be hung" Gen. Thomas
remarked: Il think bese remarks
are very improper anu out of place,
and, for one, I do not feel inclined to
submit to them. I wish to give the
prisoner fair trial, but L am not
satisfied to sit here and listen to such
language"
Gen. Wallace added: "This is of a
piece with the general character of
the defence. But the court has a
remedy, and it will be applied if these
remarks are continued" This was q
settler for Mr.. Baker, and he subsidized.

Advices from Buenos Ayres, South
America, as late as the 25th of july.
have been received; but they contain
little or nothing additional regarding
the war between Brazil and Paraguay.
It is reported that the Paraguayans
have been defeated with heavy loss
near the town of San Borgia, though,
as no date is given, it IS uncertain
whether the fight alluded to is not the
same one the account of which was
given in the Herald, of the, 11th ult.,
wherein it is stated that the Paraguay
ans had been victorious. The fugitive
reports relative to this war, like those
in reference to the contest between
the Republicans and Imperialists in
Mexico, are very vague and confused.
It would seem that the Emperor of
Brazil himself designs having n per-
sonal supervision of the contest, as at
the date of last accounts he had ar
rived at Buenos Ayres. Our CORES
pondent in that city, in his letter
which we publish to-day, gives his
tory of the war up to the 18th of Jnly,
and some account of South American
affairs generally.-Ne,o York Herald.

According to announcement duly

vened through the following circular:
Nnw YORK, August 23, 1865.
DEAR SIR: Since the events of last
week, which disclosed to ourselves
the unfortunate condition of our
house, and drove us to assignment,
we have been busily engaged in ef-
forts to secure our property to our
creditors, and to give early informa-
ton of the state of our affairs. We
are now able to say, for the first time.
that, according to the balance on our
books, our liabilities are. in ro:ud
numbers, 81, 600, 900, while the avail
able assets applicable to the payment
OF onr liabilities and the expenses of
winding up the estate cannot, proba-
bly,, realize more than So s @, 600 to
50, OOO, 900, and in forced realization.
probably less than either sum. Some
claims, amounting to $3.50, 600, have
been made upon us, which we think
we are not liable for, and there is q
faint prospect that our assignees may
regain a very small amount of the
assets OF which we were fraudulently
deprived. The amount of funds and
securities abstracted from us without
our knowledge at the time, and to our
so great loss, is now definitely ascer-.
tanned to have been no less than
81, 800, 900.

WHITE VS.. BLACK TRooPs.-Monday
afternoon an atfray, which might
nave resulted more seriously under
other circumstances, occurred at the
junction of the Danville and South-
side Railroad. A detachment of
several hundred negro soldiers are
stationed at the junction, and train
carrying regiment of white troops
en- route for Petersburg, to be muster
ed out of service, came down from
Danville. At the junction the troops
disembarked to take the South-side
train. One of the negro guards per
ambulating the platform is said to
have remarked, II wish I could get a
slght OF one of dem Louisiana rebels"
or words to that effect. One of the
white soldiers, who overheard him,
cursed the negro. The two cinched,
blows passed, and the white and black
elements Immediately took sides. and
fight ensued. No firearms or deadly
weapons were used, believe. but one
white and one colored soldier were
severely beaten. The white troops
retired apart to themselves, and
though they carried their muskets
they were unloaded, and their cart
ridge boxes were empty The negro
guard at the depot were speedily re-
inforced from the camp, and for few
moments the aspect Of affairs looked
threatening indeed. Railroad officials,
residents and native negroes, hastily
deserted the scene. Had the white
soldiers had ammunition, the affair
would probably have eventuated in
bloodshed. Finally the troops we're
embarked, and the train left for Pc
tersburg.
1t is said that the troops that went
on sent back a messen ger towards
Danville to notify other regiments fol-
lowing to ''pick their fints'' and be
prepared for the junction. Some six
or eight thousand were to come down
within the next few days, and serious
difficulty was apprehended, but the
officers know how to meet the emer-
gency and prevent further trouble.
The citizens of the neighborhood are
getting up a petition to the military
authorities, asking to be relieved Of
the presence of the negro soldiery.

I know not whether the Confederate

to the disgust of New Bedford and
Nantucket, but it has been struck in
Londo& The Inder has been discon-

readers persisted in considering il q

even the appearance of useless op-
position, it ceases to be. The Ledez

four years with talent and moderation.
Its editor and its principal writer's
have been Englishmen, but the soul
OF the enterprise was Henry Hotze,
formerly an editor of Mobile, Ala,
and the financial agent of the Confe-
derate States in London. He is a
Swiss by birth, emigrated early in life
to Alabama, and is considered not
only a man of rare ability, but of
singular integrity. Besides the Eng
ish writer's which it was his policy to
engage in the Southern cause, and
who carried the spirit of the I'sder
and the inspirations of Mr.. Hotze
into half the journals of London,

was a little astonished, a day or
ago, to see the Confederate loan quot
ed at five to seven, and to learn that
the holders were anxious to have
report from the agents respecting the
next dividends. If the cargo of cot
ton attached, the other day, at Liver
pool, Was intended to redeem part
OF the loan, the subscribers may still
realize something; or there may be
lingering hope that the individual
States will, at some remote period of
time, redeem their several shares. in
good cotton bales, or that Congress,
the legal administrator of the defunct
Confederacy, will feel bound to
pay its debts, as well as to seize and
possess its assets. For example, why
should not the Federal Government,
in taking the ram StonewaI, paw its
French builders, rs well as the officers
and crew discharged at Havana?
What says Wheaton on this subject?
By-the-way, Wheaton is being trans
lated into Chinese by an American
missionary. The Chinese would not
take his Testaments, so he gives them
Wheaton. They refuse the law of

to promise that curiosity will be well erati-

No abler host could be found, and no build

take for granted that he has not been max

natural fitness for the vocation, will have
