Louisville last Saturday. IL. Co"rier-Joy:-
n"! says:
James Cannon enlisted il company d,
Twenty-eight Kentucky Infantry. early in
1861. and was mustered out N January,
1866. He rose by prior merit and gallantry
from this ranks to leuteuancy in his ola
company. He was shot through the body
near Atlanta, Georgia, and is d pensioner OF
the government now.
An officer OF that regiment state. that he
believes it would be very dithcUlc to make
any Of Gannon's cid comrades believe he
would be guilty Of the crime for which he
IS under arrest, or of any crime. when he
was in his right senses Ills past bearing,
disposition and character were all opposed
t0lt.
He was modest. afab.e, generous and
brave. and would not have harmed even q
dumb brute maliciously. He was of very
atiectionate and sensitive disposition. and
it is supposed by many Of those who knew
mis- na.ure best. that long and painful
hrooding over his wrongs had diseased his
mind. which. when hi, wife refused to
promise revolution in he: conduct. swung
off from Its mooriugs, and at the parox.ysm
of uncomfortable anguish which ensued the
fearful shots were fired.

At the Pacific Mail Company's meeting
to-day legal advice was taken as to the
right of the company to issue bonds. 1t
was the opinion Of eminent counsel that
under their charter and the revised statutes
the company has full power to issue bonds

necessary hereafter to them as business
company. Temporary measures to raise
money for current expenses were taken.
The motion for the California loan has been
abandoned.
President Bradbury was appointed a
special committee as to the mode and
amount of bonds to be issued, and will
report to future meeting 1t is unknown

Naval Movements.

Some months since Lieutenant Com
mander kells received from the Naval De-
partment orders to place al! the vessels at
the ironclad station at New Orleans in
sea-going order. which was Immediately
done. The eigh. iron cIads now lying there,
all Of which wece built at PittsbUrg. have
been for some months in such condition
that FIVE hours notice would be sufficient
to make them ready for action. Three OF
them the Chickasaw, Kewaydin and Win.
uebagO, two turrets and four guns each,
are only intended for river service. The
others, tee Elijah. Iris. klamath, Cmpqua
and Yuma, are sea going monitors, all Quilt
on the same model. 4o3 tonnage. with single
turre.s and two guns. They are prepared
at any moment to get up steam. receive
crew. powder and stores. and go into COM
mission. Mr.. DAME! Ward, the officer in
charge, has everything in perfect condition,
from the tremendous machinery of the tur-
ret down to the smallest portion of the
bright work.
1t has been stated by gentlemen whose
opportunities secured them accurate in
formation, that $50 seamen could be enlist
ed IN this city. The Secretary Of the Navy
seems to be equally well informed. and de-
termined to take advantage of the circum-
stance. 1t is ramored IN authoritative Cir
cles that the government will, II few
days, establish naval rendezvous at this
port This viii! be hailed with satisfaction
by every one. as showing a strengthened
confidence in the people of New Orleans.

such basis would tend Immediately to
ass;s. in the recovery of the prosperity Of
the city. Four or tve hundred chances for
employment for active. intelligent. able
bodied men, many Of whom are now seek
ing in vain fo- employment, will be eagerly
sought for.
The political aspec. of the move can only
be left to conjecture. But. with Escobedo
moving toward tLs Rio Grande. Gordon
flibussering in Central America. San Do
mingo entering on revolution, the Cubans
growing more and more powerful and con-
tdent, and tnc action of Secretary Robson
in the matter of the steamer Virgin;us, it is
very significant. The spectacle of five
double -barreled thunderbolts ready to be
launched in any direction is very inspiring,
especially to the eye that controls the hand
that holds them.

the Almees Of Egypt, do not move about in

their masters, and the well known Fatteh

POSTAL MATTERs-Postmaste General Cres-
well will shortly issue an order reducing the reg
istTatOn fee for domestic letters aud packages 10
eight cents. The law limits the charge TO twenty
cents for each registration, and it was fixed by
Postmaster General Dennison at tie present rate
Of fifteen cents which General Creswell thinks is
unnecessarily high, especially in view of the fact
that the fee for registering letters or packages
sent through the mails 20 Europe is only eight
cents. 1t is believed the intended reduction will
result in large increase Of registration business
without materially augmenting the present ex
pouses of the service.
