 RICHMOND, June 4. Judge Underwood has not yet arrived and there is consequently no court to-day. Eminent lawyers express the opinion that the adjournment of the Circuit Court from Norfolk to Richmond, after the indictment against Mir. Davis, was unauthorized by law, and hence the order of adjournment was a nullity, and the only act of the Court will De to discharge the Grand Jury, under recent act of Congress. Chief Justice Chase may order special term of the Court to be held in Richmond, and before which the trial of Mr. Davis may be demanded, or a motion for bail be submitted, but no such order has been issued.

Memphis Market.
DAILY COMMERCIAL OFFICE, |
 Tuesday. June 5. 1866. {

Tuesday, June 5, l866
 CoTToN.--The market during the morning showed little activity at unchanged prices, but depressing news from Liverpool and New York brought transactions to an entire stand. The panic in commercial circles and the ap- proach of war entirely dominate the market and altogether extinguish any effect that would otherwise follow from decreased receipts and unfavorable crop news in this country. A private letter from the firm of Lockhart and Dempstead, Liverpool, which we were allowed to see, and which is dated May IS, after stat ing how the London merchants have been aided by the Bank of England, proceeds: Here, much recklessness, fostered by large profits of late years from cotton operations, has debarred circle of operators from the help which they needed from the Bank of England to carry them through, and Liverpool is in great confusion, Large failures are oc- curing daily, and more are likely to follow In the circumstances, and with such stocks and prospective supplies of cotton, we cannot but believe in yet lower prices for the imme- diate future. The correctness of the closing anticipation is proved by Liverpool intelli- gence received here, and New York telegrams show that the market there is bending under the storm, while gold is skiting." lO4 o'clock gold opened at 4OA cotton dull and nominal, 37 to 39c.
