Civil Paramount to Military Authority

At the present term of the U. S. District
Court at New. Orleans, person instituted
suit for the recovery of several hundred
bales of cotton seized by persons belonging
to the military service of the United States.
The Jurisdiction of the Court in the pre-
misses was denied by Gen. Candy, and he
issued an order accordingly. The Court
having made an order upon the General
which he refused to obey, ordered his ar
rest for contempt. Judge Darrell refusing
to hold his Court until he could do so in
accordance with the laws and Constitution
of the United States. The question of con-
fllct was referred to the authorities at
Washington. Our kilograms this morning
announce that the Secretary of war, by
direction of the President, has instructed
Gen. Candy to reeind his order and to a.
low the Court unrestricted authority in the
matter.
It will be seen, therefore, that the Presi-
dent is fearlessly performing his duties
under the Constitution and laws in the
South-aud establishing the sure founda-
tons of peace real and substantial, over all
factious opposition-U Union EAuerican, 8th,

DURING the recent storm IN the vicinity
of Madison, Wisconsin, the lightning was
seen to strike into the lakes, and hurl mass
es of ice, two feet in thickness, hundreds
of feet into the air. The latent heat set
free by the change Of vapor to liquid form
was SO great as to raise the temperature in
a few hours from below the freezing point
to that of summer, and preserve it there for
nearly twenty four hours.

Faces on q Battlefield.

The celebrated report of DIR. Chenu, on the
mortality caused by war, contains some inter-
esting information concerning the appearance
presented by some who die a violent death on
the field of battle. One surgeon says that
wandering OH the battlefield of the Alma, on
the third day after the fight he observed with
astonishmcnt number Of Russian corpses
whose attitude and expression of countenance
were precisely those of life. Some did GER
tainly present an aspect which showed tnat
they had suffered severely just previous to
dissolution, but these were few in number
compared with those who wore calm and re-
signed expression, as though they had passed
away in the act Of praying Others had a
smile on their faces, and looked as if they
were in the act of speaking; one in particular
attracted his attention; he was lying partly
on his side, his knees were bent under him,
his hands were clasped together and pointing
upward, his head was thrown back, and he
was apparently still praying evidently he was
in the act Of doing so at the moment when
death laid his hand upon him.
Another medical man relates that aftcr the
battle of Inkerman, the faces Of the dead still
wore smile; while others had threatening
expression. Some lay stretched on their
backs as if friendly hands had prepared them
for burial. Some were still resting on one
knee, their hands grasping their muskets.---
In some instances, the cartridge remained be-
tween the teeth, or the muskct was held in
one hand, and the other was uplifted as though,
to ward of a blow or appealing to Heaven
The faces Of all we're pale, as though eut,sn

anecdotes Of Chess.

Paul /, Emperor of Russia, travelling
as the Comte du Nord, visited the Cafe
de la Regence at the hour of four in the
afternoon, when the battles Of the chess
board We're at their height. Paul went
up to couple of combatants and betted
on difficult move. His stake was a
louis. He won, took his money, and re-
tired: Nothing hitherto had betrayed
who he was, until the exclamation of the
waiter, to whom he gave all his win
nings, attracted the attention of the
company. For this, and several other
anecdotes, we are indebted to M. Jean
graphic du Jeu DIES Echecs."
The following is stated to be of doubt
full authority, which is pity: One
evening when Robespierre, already sur
rounded with his halo of terror, was
sitting in the Cafe de la Regence,a young
little exquisite entered the saloon and,
unceremoniously installing himself at
his table, moved man on the chess
board which stood in front of Robes
pierre, who responded to the move
The game went on and was lost by the
latter. They began second game,
which he likewise lost. Seeing this,
Rebespierre felt his honor engaged, and
inquired for what stake they were play
ing. "For the head of a man." the lad
replied. 81 have won it; give it me-"
Robespierre drew from his pocket
sheet of paper and wrote an order to set
at liberty the Comte de Ri, then
imprisoned in the Concergerie. The
smart little dandy, it seems, was no
other than the Comte's affianced bride.
One is unwilling to question King
Canute's magnaninimy latter his famous
rebuke of his courtiers, but his mind
seems to have been less proof against
the excitements Of chess than the blan-
dishments of flattery. While playing
with the Count Ulf, the King made
great mistake, in consequence of which
the Count took one of his knights. The
King would not allow this, but replaced
the piece, insisting that the Count
should make a different move. The lat
ter got angry, upset the chess-board,
and retired. :" Ulf," shouted the King
after him, you are a coward; you run
away"
The Count returned to the door and
answered, "You would have run away
into the river Helga in very different
style, if [ had not come to your assist
ance when the Swedes were beating you
like Il dog. You did not call me a
coward then" With those words he
walked off, and the next day the King
had him put to death.
