MAYORS CogRr.- Considerable inter
st was manifested yesterday in case
ried before Mayo Baker at bis Once
4 man named Edward Wells, was ar
rested on CD Arge of vagraney, and the
trial was set for 10 o'clock yesterday
morning. 4 large number Of witnesses
we're sum moued, and the Council Cham
Der war. filed with spectators
Mr. John J. Chandler appeared for the
pros ecutiOn, and Col. DENLY for the de-
feIace.
The evidence for the prosecution
showed that Wells has been living in
the city " of and on for some two
years without visible property or any
lawful calling; had never been seen to
engage at labor Or any lawful pursuit to |
gain livelihood.
Had been seen playing cards on
STEAMBOATS, for money, and in one case
had won money from young man in
the city, but the money bad been restor-
ed through the intervention of the po-
lice.
BY the defense, it vas shown that he
always had money and paid his board
tAilors and boot-makers' bills, and wore
good clothes.
| After hearing the evidence and the
argument Of counsel. the Mayor se-
Judged him guilty, and fixed his punish
msnt at fine Of $50 and costs.
An appeal, we learn, has been taken
to the Circuit Court, and his bond filed,
with Sam. Grammer and A. Gumberts
as security.

WAsHTsGroS, Oct l6.-The question
Of the retention OF the veteran reserve

this week. 1t is more likely to be- mus

The statement that there will be de-
6cit of eight millions in the mail service

the Southern States is unfounded in
fact; and, further, from all reliable

NEW YoRK, Oct. IL -Advices from
Mexico and the peighboring Colony Of
British Honduras, furnish us with in
telligencs Of very important harscter.
We learn, IN the shape OF official CORES
pondencs. that the English Government
has repudia.ed the attempt Of Maximil-
ian in 1864, 70 extend the boundary Of
the Empire into British Honduras, By
means Of military mail from Yocatan.
The British Minister in the City Of Mexi-
co declares that Mexico has no claim
whatever In Any portion Of the territory,
and 10 this Senior Ramirez On behalf Of
the Government acquiesces.
The doubtful policy Of Napoleon to-
wards Macmillan and the reported de-
termination of the United States Gov
eranent to uphold the Monroe doctrine,
influenced the submissive tone Of the
Mexican reply considerably In Mexi-
CO the supporters Of President Juarez
were extremely anxious Of th, leading
Republicans defrsying the expenses Of
arming the guerrilla bands from their
private purses.
At Tampico and along the coast line,
the cause Of Imperialism was decidedly
declining, and considerable confusion
was exhibited in and around the city in
consequences Of the strife The great
hope Of the Republicans was in expects-
ton Of aid from the United States

broke out, Geo. ~ Gooch, defendant in
the case, according TO statement made,

plaintiffs IN the prosecution. Gooch
went on with bis collections, and as be al

invested about 100000 Of the money
be collected in rebel securities, which,
Of course, have since proved worthless
A short time since, Mr. Gooch returned
TO this city and ct the instance Of the
plaintiff was arrested and locked up in
