WASHINGTON, June 18.-The cross-examination did not shake Dye's testimony materially, though some inconsistencies exist between that given be¬ fore the court and that before the military com¬ mission. A black woman, a servant in Mrs. Surratt's house, testified to having seen Surratt at home on the night of the assassination. A sporting gentle¬ man testifies to having seen him on the afternoon of the day on Pennsylvania avenue. B la m proof that, under the name of John Har¬ rison, Surratt left Montreal on the afternoon of the 12th and returned on the 18th. This would give him about four dava to make bis trip and do his work. The Court then adjourned. The following dispatch was sent to General Jas. B.

The alarm was sounded, but before the fire départaient could reach there, the mansion was enveloped in flames. The house and furni¬ ture, together with a fine private library, were de¬ stroyed; only a few articles of furniture and one or two paintings saved. The fire was undoubtedly caused by an act of in¬ cendiarism, as the family of CoL Harris has been absent for two or three months, during which time no fireshave been kindled in the house. We understand ¿bait the incendiary 's torch was applied to three different' localities in the budding, and this accounts for ita rapid destruction. Col. Harris slept in an office on the premises, and was only awaked to find his beautiful residence a pile of barning rains. He had a fine private library, be¬ sides works of art, family portraits, Sus., which were all destroyed. ~l: We learn that an attempt was made some two or three months ago to fire this residence .bot was frustrated by the discovery of the combustibles in the basement of the building. Hinco then a pretty strict watch has been kept up, but at the time of the fire no policemen were in the vicinity. Mr.. Harris was insured for about $14,000, which would scarcely cover the cost of the building. The freed¬ men, we leam, were prominently conspicuous in trying to save the property. We refer to the card of Mr. Harris in another column. There were other buildings in the vicinity which were endangered, but were saved by personal ex¬ ertions of firemen and citizens.-Cof. Thamix.

It shall be the duty of per civil ofheers charged with providing jurors, to proceed within their several j tions, without delay, and ascertain the n all qualified poisons and place them on lists, and from such revised lists aU jurors hereafter summoned and drawn m the required by law.] The following is the letter of Judge MOSE Major-General Daniel E. Sickles, JJ. 8. A. GENERAL : The Sheriff has submitted I letter to him from General Clitz, of this c ask leave respectfully to bring to your ai the difficulties which exist in regard to thc vance of Paragraph II, of your Order No. 3! as relates to the present term of the C Charleston. Under the laws in South Carolina, pro vic the drawing and impanelling of juries, it is cd that they be drawn at the preceding ten for the term next, and they must be drawn Clerk and Sherill in the presence of the pr Judge, should the latter, by indisposition er cause, be prevented from attending, ¿1 other officers, with the aid of a magistrat draw the jury. It will thus appear to you t your Order was a general one, and supp nave a prospective operation, and did not particular change the manner of drawing an mouing jurors, it will be impossible, undo carry out what is manifestly your purpose. A Judge in South Carolina has only power dor an extra court in one contingency, and t if the business of the term cannot be accoo ed in the time prescribed by the law. Of < h erefore, an extra court cannot be ordere the last day of the term, and then only in th« that undisposed cases remain on the docket With the view, therefore, of preventing a struction to the administration of justice, otherwise must now arise, allow me to sugge the court at this time proceed with the already summoned. I will poss such orders early day of the session as will provide for in conformity with your order for the next ti Tours, very respectfully, F. J.

By order of Brevet Brig.-Gen. B?. B. CLITZ. HARRY B. ANDERSON Lieut. 6th Infantry, Adjuta It will thus be Been that there was no col whatever; on the contrary, we are informed the interview between General SICKLES am Judge was of the most amicable character. Judge MOSES, we think, took the proper ct under the circumstances. There certainly wi apparent clashing of authorities, and a conseq misunderstanding; it was dearly, therefore viseet course the Judge could take, to have a < ough understanding of his status before proc ing with the serious and responsible business which be is charged. This, in our opinion, h< done in a dignified and altogether commend manner; and we hope that nothing further occur to interrupt the usual course of term li ness in the city. The Judge came here determined to do his d but he intends that others also shall do theirs; i acting upon this principle, ho has changed usual proceeding toward recusant jurors; in« of following the course heretofore pursued, o: suing a soire facias, returnable at the next te he issued peremptory orders to show cause fa with why they have not obeyed the process of Court. In the rani districts, there is usuailj difficulty to empanel a jury, while, in the c there ia always a loss of one or more days in effort to organize a Grand Jury. Our people singularly inconsistent in this matter of jury di "Trial by jury is one of the bulwarks of civil erty"-is in everybody's mouth; yet those v same persons, who have this grandiloquent phi at their tongues'end, never hesitate to avail thi selves of every, even the most flimsy, excuse, shirk the duty. The consequence is that it falls too frequei upon those who are either too ignorant or too c scientious to shirk it upon such grounds. TM one of the cases, however, where the Scriptt saying is exhibited: "With what measure mete, it shall be measured to you again;" if : refuse to serve on a. jury to day, in which the 1 honor, or property of your neighbor is at sta to-morrow, when you are plaintiff or defenda you may have reason to regret that you, by y< own practice and example, have contributed lar, ly to the present state of things, and yon cam in reason object to any kind of jury. We are glad Judge MOSES has acted with eneri and we hope other Judges will follow his examj and by precept in their charges, and by pract in enforcing fines, bring our people back to healthier sense of their duty. FROM MEXICO. LETTER OF MAirMTLIAN TO MARQUEZ; [Correspondence cf the New Torie Herald.] CITY OE MEXICO, May 25, 1867, The Boletín de Oriente, in an extra which I ha just received, publishes the following letter Maximilian to General Marquez. It was interco] ed, together with other imperial correspondent QUERETARO, May 8, 1867. SENOR GENERAL MARQUEZ : After having bei for some time without any news from the capiti I have just received at the same time from diff< ent sources information that embitters my fei bigs. It relates to occurrences which we cou wish were never made public, out of regard least for the dignity of our throne. When yon left here for the capital you were, consideration of the offer which you had mad invested with ample powers to organize a respe* able division of men which, with the pecunia means that, we needed, you were to bring to tl relief of this place. But, contrary to your ms tm tiona, you undertook a tardy and hesitating mo which failed to be of aid to the besieged city Puebla, and caused the loss of the only regul force you could muster, owing to the disorder ai unskifftilness of your retreat, which had all tl appearance of a flight. I prefer not to speak at present of the tem and panic that induced you then to treat with tl liberals for a conditional surrender of the capita I would wish, also, that I could pass over in e lenee the hatred you have aroused against the en pire by your use of vexatious and over cru measures which history will never explain in a fi vorable sense for us. Snob acts have produce their inevitable result. Not only is public opimo against us, but even our best friends-such s Generals Vidaurri, De la Portilla, Espejo an others-refuse to share in the responsibility fe such misconduct. And while at the capital all the interests of sc oiety are injured ia tho effort to extort pecuniar means that are squandered, leaving in the publi mind the conviction that they are used for crim nal purpose -i, tbe long suffering and heroic arm which defends this place has to struggle wit hunger and is short of powder, whilo all the prc Gstiles yielded by the meit mg down of the churc 11s are spent. With such conduct tho ompir must necessarily succumb, for in this age of th world only such political institutions as ara of put lio benefit can stand. Bad ones fall sooner o later ; they can cover survive. Our own conscience, however, is easv, becaus we have spared no kind of sacrifice, and what eve was possible for us to do has not been left undone Tbs unbounded confidence which we placed in th prominent men around ns, and the use which ead one bas made of the trust, shall be the data upoi which history will found its judgment of ou action. And as for ourselves, we decline an; share in the responsibility attending any act what ever of violence or wrong; such we will neithe authorize u jr sanction. I remain, &c, MAXDLTLIAN. AN ENGLISH JOURNAL concludes with some o the jurors at the Paris Exhibition thus: ''Take, fo: example, pickles. Conceive the condition pf bod; and mind to which conscientious gentlemen mus be reduced after a careful' tasting of the produc tiona of a score or so of pickle-makers. Imagine the Btate of his palate and the confused state o his judgment after a course of onions, walnuts, cabbage, capsicums and gherkins, intersperses with an occasional sample of piccalilli, or some other of those mysterious peppery compound; with the names of which we are all familiar, re¬ peated, for the sake of confirming the first im¬ pressions, all through the piccalilli, gherkins, cap¬ sicums, cabbages, walnuts and onions aforesaid, Take again mustard, a condiment which all house¬ keepers know to vary very much in quality, and to be susceptible of au" astonishing amount of adul¬ t-ration. We should very much like to know how the worthy jurors try the merits of competing mustards. Fraser, Trenholm & Co. DECISION IN THE TICE-CHANOELLOB'B COÜBT IN ENGLAND. The follow inp decision is announced in the Lon. don Times as having been given in the vice-Chan¬ cellor's Court on the 80th ult., in the above case : .. "Prioleau vs. The United States of America and Andrew Johnson." This case came before the court upon exceptions to the answer put in by the defendants, The United States of America, to tho cross bill of Messrs. Fraser, Trenholm & Cc, which was filed for tho purpose of obtaining dis¬ covery in aid of their defence to tho original bill of the United States. The original bill was filed by the United States for the purpose of recovering certain bales of cotton consigned during the late rebellion or war of secession to the defendants, Messrs. Prioleau and others, oarrying on business under tho firm of Fraser, Trenholm & Co., as agents in this country for the 'pretended government under the style of the government of tbe Confederate States, which assumed the administration of pub¬ lic affairs in part of the dominion of the United States.' This bill, after- stating that the rebellion was at an end, alleged that the 'association, or so- called Confederate government had been dis¬ solved, and ceased to exist, and that the several persons who had formed themselves into the so- pretended government, and on whose account the cotton was shipped, bad submitted to the author¬ ity of the government of the United States, and had expressly ceded, to them all the joint or public property of the pretended Confederate Government, including the cotton in question; that such persons did not claim to be entitled to or interested in the cotton, and were not neces¬ sary parties, and that the title of the United States to the cotton was complete, independently of such cession, and was a title paramount thereto. In their answer to the original bili Messrs. Fraser & Co. insisted that the United States Government, in claiming the cotton as State property of the dis¬ solved de facto Confederate Government, could only take it subject to all rights and liabilities created in respect of it bv the Confederate Government, to whom the United States had succeeded; and also that, as this particular cotton had boon shipped from the State of Texas, it now (according to the law of that State, and of the other separate sovereign States) belonged, as bona vacantia, not to the Federal Union, but to the particular state. They had filed a cross bill against the United Stites and President Johnson for the purpose of obtaining discovery in aid of their defence, and their interrogatories were di rected to the footing on which the Confederate Government were regarded by the United States with a view to obtaining an admission for the pur¬ pose of the snit that such Confederate Government was a defacto government, and not a mere band of pirates and filibusters. Interrogatories were also directed as to the state of the law of the United States as to bona vacantia, whether property in that condition did not belong to the particular state in which it was found, ana not to the Federal Union; and again, whether money or property con tributed by inhabitants of the sovereign States forming the Federal Union for any purpose, legal or illegal, vested in such Union. Thu United States had filed a long and elabo rate answer, of which it will be sufficie it to sta'e that the plaintiffs in the cross suit (Fraser & Co.) had excepted to it as insufficient on the ground that the United States had not answered the interrogatories-(1), as to whether there was any law of the United States bv which money or property contributed by individuals as inn ab: tauts of any of I he sovereign States forming the federal Union for any purpose, legal orille- il, vested in such federal Union ; (2), as to the w of each of the separate sovereign States, and particularly of Texas, relating to bona cacanlia ; and (3), whether the United States claimed the cotton as being the successors of the Confederate Government, and as to the position of such Con¬ federate Government, whether it was regarded by the United States as a defacto government exer oising authority over the State of Texas. The fourth exception was similar in effect to the first. The Yioe-Chanc llor said that the first and fourth exceptions, by which the United States were required to state their laws, which formed part of their case, must be overruled, as the party inter¬ rogating, although entitled to obtain information from his opponent as to his own title, could not compel a discovery of that which related to the opponent's title. The third exception stood upon a different footing, and must be allowed. It was of the utmost importance to tho plaintiffs in the cross-suit that they should know whether the persons from whom they had acquired the cotton in question were regarded by the United States as a body of men who had violently and by force of arms, exacted contributions and seized upon property, which they employed against the United States, or whether there was a de facto government by which these acts of authority were exeroised in the Southern States. The distinction was most important, and might be illustrated by a comparison between a fitful, sporadic movement of anarchy, such as Jack Cade's rebellion, on the ono hand, and the protectorate of Oliver Cromwell on the other, .he United States bad uot answered this in¬ terrogatory, and especially that portion of it which related to the relations between the al¬ leged Confederate government and the State of Texas. This was a most important point for the plaintiffs (in the cross suit) to obtain informa¬ tion upon, as it most materially affected their po¬ sition in respect of tho cotton claimed in the origi¬ nal suit. He might add that the United States in stating that ' of choir (State of Texas] pretend¬ ed quality as a government this court has no law¬ ful power to take judicial cognizance, nor can it, according to the established laws of England, en¬ ter into any inquiry of fact regarding the same,' had framed their answer in a mistake of the law, as this court not only might, but must, take judi cial cognizance for the purposes of this suit of whether the Confederate Government was or was not a de facto government. The third exception would, therefore, be allowed. If the second excep¬ tion had stood alone, he should not have been dis¬ posed to have allowed it. although the answer omitted all reference to the State of Texas as to the law relating to bona vacantia. Such a special inquiry required a special answer, and under the circumstances, however, the exception would be allowed. The result, therefore, was that the first and fourth exceptions were overruled, and the second and third allowed." The Cotton Trade. The New York Shipping and Commercial List of the 15th inst., publishes the following in reference to the Cotton trade : Such English authorities as are noted for keep¬ ing careful and precise accounts of the movements of Cotton, together with the future prospects of the trade, are unanimous in the opinion that Cotton has about touched bottom; that the point has been reached at which consuméis, in England and on the Continent, can buy freely and work to a moderate profit, and hence, that there is now a legitimate foundation for a healthy business. On the other hand, the supply is so ample (80,000 bales ofall kinds at Liverpool June 1,) and the absence of speculation so marked, that no important advance is looked for, recent indications pointing to Helled, as tho natural price, at present, for Mid Lim, American. Owing to the low figure at which the stock in thiB country has been reducd through the free ship¬ ments bf last winter and spring, English spinners have apparently made up their minds that from July 1st to December 1st they can, practically speaking,receive scarcely any cotton from this side of the Atlantic, but they do not arguo from this probability that any material advance in pries ts likely to follow. They aro clearly of opinion that the import of the India s tap Ie will increase in the same degree that the arrivals of the American fall off, and thus, with the stock kept pretty full till late in the Au¬ tumn, little change in price will probably take place, aside from tho possible widening of the mar¬ gin which at present exists between Surats and American. The arrivals of Egyptian c otton at Liv¬ erpool have about ceased for this season, and the crop has turned out much less than was expected, the import to June 1st showing the trifling in¬ crease of 8000 bales over that of last year. Owing to this disappointing result, an advance in this kind of ljd.@2d. from the lowest point had been established, while Biazil and In¬ dia, which had arrived freely in May, ruled with great steadiness. Attention is now largely directed tu thu prospects of the growing crop on this side, the general opinion being that tho yield will be somewhat in excess of the last one, after making all duo allowance for inunda¬ tions and the unsettled condition of labor-tho conclusion hoing founded largely upon the fact that last season was very unfavorable, and the seed poor. Tho state of trade in Manchester has visibly improved under tho encouraging accounts from India, where the markets have shown unex¬ pected strength, in view of the enormous supplies of goods from England. A GAIN OF FOUBTEEN CONOBESSMEN.-It is a fair question for the Radicals to consider how long they could retain their majority, even in the Rump Congress, if all the States should follow ihe exam¬ ples of the last two in which Congressional elec¬ tions have been held--Connecticut and Eentuckv. In those States there is thc extraordinary and un¬ precedented chango of fourteen Congressmen against them. If Ohio. Pennsylvania, New York and the other great States were now to elect the entire politi ;al composition of tho House of Rep¬ resentatives would undoubtedly bo changed. [Citi. Enquirer. Wo find the foregoing statement going the rounds of the Southern press. Tho Cincinnati Enquirer ought to know that no good can result from such delusions as it is calculated to produce. It ought to know that parties havo been closely balanced in Connecticut-formerly a Democratic stronghold-and that victory has alternated dur¬ ing tho last five years between tho opposing par¬ ties by very small majorities; and that in the lost election the democrats needed a gain of but five hundred votes to enaüo them to corry the State. it ought to know that tho cause which would operate to give tho anti-radical p irty a victory in the Southern States of Kentucky, would have an effect directly the reverse lu the* Northern States. It imposes upon popular credulity and creates hopes upon a hollow basis when it talks about what would happen in Ohio and New York if elec¬ tions were now to be hold in these states. It has been but a few weeks since an election took place In New York when but little ovor half of the votes in the State were cast, and tho Republicen majority was twenty thousand. As for Ohio, we may infer what would be the result of an election in that State from tho fact that in Cincinnati re¬ cently, tho Radicals elected their Mayor by four thousand majority. There may be a change in thc tide of public sen¬ timent in the North at some future day, but it will lot be in time to reverse thc decrees of the present Congress, which has a term of two years to run.

The house and furni¬ture, together with a fine private library, were de¬stroyed; only a few articles of furniture and one ortwo paintings saved.The fire was undoubtedly caused by an act of in¬

cendiarism, as the family of CoL Harris has beenabsent for two or three months, during whichtime no fireshave been kindled in the house. Weunderstand ¿bait the incendiary 's torch was appliedto three different' localities in the budding, andthis accounts for ita rapid destruction. Col. Harrisslept in an office on the premises, and was onlyawaked to find his beautiful residence a pile ofbarning rains. He had a fine private library, be¬sides works of art, family portraits, Sus., whichwere all destroyed. ~l:We learn that an attempt was made some two

or three months ago to fire this residence .bot wasfrustrated by the discovery of the combustibles inthe basement of the building. Hinco then aprettystrict watch has been kept up, but at the time ofthe fire no policemen were in the vicinity. Mr..Harris was insured for about $14,000, which wouldscarcely cover the cost of the building. The freed¬men, we leam, were prominently conspicuous intrying to save the property. We refer to the cardof Mr. Harris in another column.Therewere other buildings in the vicinity which

were endangered, but were saved by personal ex¬ertions of firemen and citizens.-Cof. Thamix.

A discovery of a rich vein of silver of the high¬est promise has just been made at the Piziframmine m Bohemia^ at the depth of four hundredfathoms, or one hundred and thirty fathoms belowthe level of the sea.

It will thus be Been that there was no colwhatever; on the contrary, we are informedthe interview between General SICKLES am

Judge was of the most amicable character.Judge MOSES, we think, took the proper ct

under the circumstances. There certainly wi

apparent clashing of authorities, and a conseqmisunderstanding; it was dearly, thereforeviseet course the Judge could take, to have a <

ough understanding of his status before procing with the serious and responsible businesswhich be is charged. This, in our opinion, h<

done in a dignified and altogether commendmanner; and we hope that nothing furtheroccur to interrupt the usual course of term liness in the city.The Judge came here determined to do his d

buthe intends that others also shall do theirs; i

acting upon this principle, ho has changedusual proceeding toward recusant jurors; in«of following the course heretofore pursued, o:

suing a soire facias, returnable at the next tehe issued peremptory orders to show cause fawith why they have not obeyed the process of

Court. In the rani districts, there is usuailjdifficulty to empanel a jury, while, in the c

there ia always a loss of one or more days ineffort to organize a Grand Jury. Our peoplesingularly inconsistent in this matter ofjury di"Trial by jury is one of the bulwarks of civil

erty"-is in everybody's mouth; yet those v

same persons, who have this grandiloquent phiat their tongues'end, never hesitate to avail thi

selves of every, even the most flimsy, excuse,shirk the duty.The consequence is that it falls too frequei

upon those who are either too ignorant or too c

scientious to shirk it upon such grounds. TMone of the cases, however, where the Scripttsaying is exhibited: "With what measure

mete, it shall be measured to you again;" if :refuse to serve on a. jury to day, in which the 1

honor, or property of your neighbor is at sta

to-morrow, when you are plaintiff or defenda

you may have reason to regret that you, by y<own practice and example, have contributed lar,ly to the present state of things, and yon cam

in reason object to any kind of jury.We are glad Judge MOSES has acted with eneri

and we hope other Judges will follow his examjand by precept in their charges, and by practin enforcing fines, bring our people back tohealthier sense of their duty.

just received, publishes the following letterMaximilian to General Marquez. It was interco]ed, together with other imperial correspondent

QUERETARO, May 8, 1867.SENOR GENERAL MARQUEZ : After having bei

for some time without any news from the capitiI have just received at the same time from diff<ent sources information that embitters my feibigs. It relates to occurrences which we couwish were never made public, out of regardleast for the dignity of our throne.When yon left here for the capital you were,

consideration of the offer which you had madinvested with ample powers to organize a respe*able division of men which, with the pecuniameans that, we needed, you were to bring to tlrelief of this place. But, contrary to your mstmtiona, you undertook a tardy and hesitating mowhich failed to be of aid to the besieged cityPuebla, and caused the loss of the only regulforce you could muster, owing to the disorder ai

unskifftilness of your retreat, which had all tlappearance of a flight.I prefer not to speak at present of the tem

and panic that induced you then to treat with tlliberals for a conditional surrender of the capitaI would wish, also, that I could pass over in elenee the hatred you have aroused against the en

pire by your use of vexatious and over crumeasures which history will never explain in a fivorable sense for us. Snob acts have producetheir inevitable result. Not only is public opimoagainst us, but even our best friends-such s

Generals Vidaurri, De la Portilla, Espejo an

others-refuse to share in the responsibility fesuch misconduct.And while at the capital all the interests of sc

oiety are injured ia tho effort to extort pecuniarmeans that are squandered, leaving in the publimind the conviction that they are used for crimnal purpose -i, tbe long suffering and heroic armwhich defends this place has to struggle withunger and is short of powder, whilo all the prc

Gstiles yielded by the meitmg down of the churc11s are spent. With such conduct tho ompir

must necessarily succumb, for in this age of thworld only such political institutions as ara of putlio benefit can stand. Bad ones fall sooner o

later ; they can cover survive.Our own conscience, however, is easv, becaus

we have spared no kind of sacrifice, and whatevewas possible for us to do has not been left undoneTbs unbounded confidence which we placed in thprominent men around ns, and the use which eadone bas made of the trust, shall be the data upoiwhich history will found its judgment of ouaction. And as for ourselves, we decline an;share in the responsibility attending any act whatever of violence or wrong; such we will neitheauthorize u jr sanction. I remain, &c,

Fraser, Trenholm & Co.DECISION IN THE TICE-CHANOELLOB'B COÜBT IN

ENGLAND.The follow inp decision is announced in the Lon.

don Times as having been given in the vice-Chan¬cellor's Court on the 80th ult., in the above case : ..

"Prioleau vs. The United States of America andAndrew Johnson." This case came before thecourt upon exceptions to the answer put in by thedefendants, The United States of America, to thocross bill of Messrs. Fraser, Trenholm & Cc,which was filed for tho purpose of obtaining dis¬covery in aid of their defence to tho original billof the United States.The original bill was filed by the United States

for the purpose of recovering certain bales ofcotton consigned during the late rebellion or warof secession to the defendants, Messrs. Prioleauand others, oarrying on business under tho firmof Fraser, Trenholm & Co., as agents in thiscountry for the 'pretended government underthe style of the government of tbe ConfederateStates, which assumed the administration of pub¬lic affairs in part of the dominion of the UnitedStates.' This bill, after- stating that the rebellionwas at an end, alleged that the 'association, or so-called Confederate government had been dis¬solved, and ceased to exist, and that the severalpersons who had formed themselves into the so-

pretended government, and on whose account thecotton was shipped, bad submitted to the author¬ity of the government of the United States, andhad expressly ceded, to them all the joint orpublic property of the pretended ConfederateGovernment, including the cotton in question;that such persons did not claim to be entitled toor interested in the cotton, and were not neces¬

sary parties, and that the title of the United Statesto the cotton was complete, independently of suchcession, and was a title paramount thereto. Intheir answer to the original bili Messrs. Fraser &Co. insisted that the United States Government,in claiming the cotton as State property of the dis¬solved de facto Confederate Government, couldonly take it subject to all rights and liabilitiescreated in respect of it bv the ConfederateGovernment, to whom the United Stateshad succeeded; and also that, as thisparticular cotton had boon shipped fromthe State of Texas, it now (accordingto the law of that State, and of theother separate sovereign States) belonged, asbona vacantia, not to the Federal Union, but tothe particular state. They had filed a cross billagainst the United Stites and President Johnsonfor the purpose of obtaining discovery in aid oftheir defence, and their interrogatories were directed to the footing on which the ConfederateGovernment were regarded by the United Stateswith a view to obtaining an admission for the pur¬pose of the snit that such Confederate Governmentwas a defacto government, and not a mere band ofpirates and filibusters. Interrogatories were alsodirected as to the state of the law of the UnitedStates as to bona vacantia, whether property inthat condition did not belong to the particularstate in which it was found, ana not to the FederalUnion; and again, whether money or property contributed by inhabitants of the sovereign Statesforming the Federal Union for any purpose, legalor illegal, vested in such Union.

Thu United States had filed a long and elaborate answer, of which it will be sufficie it to sta'ethat the plaintiffs in the cross suit (Fraser & Co.)had excepted to it as insufficient on the groundthat the United States had not answered theinterrogatories-(1), as to whether there was

any law of the United States bv which moneyor property contributed by individuals as inn ab:tauts of any of Ihe sovereign States formingthe federal Union for any purpose, legal orille-

il, vested in such federal Union ; (2), as to thew of each of the separate sovereign States, and

particularly of Texas, relating to bona cacanlia ;and (3), whether the United States claimed thecotton as being the successors of the ConfederateGovernment, and as to the position of such Con¬federate Government, whether it was regarded bythe United States as a defacto government exer

oising authority over the State of Texas. Thefourth exception was similar in effect to the first.

The Yioe-Chanc llor said that the first andfourth exceptions, by which the United States wererequired to state their laws, which formed part oftheir case, must be overruled, as the party inter¬rogating, although entitled to obtain informationfrom his opponent as to his own title, could notcompel a discovery of that which related to theopponent's title. The third exception stood upona different footing, and must be allowed. It wasof the utmost importance to tho plaintiffs inthe cross-suit that they should know whetherthe persons from whom they had acquired thecotton in question were regarded by the UnitedStates as a body of men who had violently andby force of arms, exacted contributions andseized upon property, which they employedagainst the United States, or whether therewas a de facto government by which these actsof authority were exeroised in the SouthernStates. The distinction was most important, andmight be illustrated by a comparison between a

fitful, sporadic movement of anarchy, such asJack Cade's rebellion, on the ono hand, and theprotectorate of Oliver Cromwell on the other,.he United States bad uot answered this in¬terrogatory, and especially that portion of itwhich related to the relations between the al¬leged Confederate government and the Stateof Texas. This was a most important point forthe plaintiffs (in the cross suit) to obtain informa¬tion upon, as it most materially affected their po¬sition in respect of tho cotton claimed in the origi¬nal suit. He might add that the United Statesin stating that ' of choir (State of Texas] pretend¬ed quality as a government this court has no law¬ful power to take judicial cognizance, nor can it,according to the established laws of England, en¬ter into any inquiry of fact regarding the same,'had framed their answer in a mistake of the law,as this court not only might, but must, take judicial cognizance for the purposes of this suit ofwhether the Confederate Government was or wasnot a de facto government. The third exceptionwould, therefore, be allowed. If the second excep¬tion had stood alone, he should not have been dis¬posed to have allowed it. although the answeromitted all reference to the State of Texas as tothe law relating to bona vacantia. Such a specialinquiry required a special answer, and under thecircumstances, however, the exception would beallowed. The result, therefore, was that the firstand fourth exceptions were overruled, and thesecond and third allowed."

The Cotton Trade.

The New York Shipping and Commercial List ofthe 15th inst., publishes the following in referenceto the Cotton trade :

Such English authorities as are noted for keep¬ing careful and precise accounts of the movementsof Cotton, together with the future prospects of thetrade, are unanimous in the opinion that Cottonhas about touched bottom; that the point has beenreached at which consuméis, in England and on theContinent, can buy freely and work to a moderateprofit, and hence, that there is now a legitimatefoundation for a healthy business. On the otherhand, the supply is so ample (80,000 bales ofall kindsat Liverpool June 1,) and the absence of speculationso marked, that no important advance is lookedfor, recent indications pointing to Helled, as thonatural price, at present, for Mid Lim, American.Owing to the low figure at which the stock in thiBcountry has been reducd through the free ship¬ments bf last winter and spring, English spinnershave apparently made up their minds that fromJuly 1st to December 1st they can, practicallyspeaking,receive scarcely any cotton from this sideof the Atlantic, but they do not arguo fromthis probability that any material advance inpries ts likely to follow. They aro clearly ofopinion that the import of the India stap Iewill increase in the same degree thatthe arrivals of the American fall off, and thus,with the stock kept pretty full till late in the Au¬tumn, little change in price will probably takeplace, aside from thopossible widening of the mar¬

gin which at present exists between Surats andAmerican. The arrivals of Egyptian c otton at Liv¬erpool have about ceased for this season, and thecrop has turned out much less than was expected,the import to June 1st showing the trifling in¬crease of 8000 bales over that of last year. Owing tothis disappointing result, an advance in thiskind of ljd.@2d. from the lowest pointhad been established, while Biazil and In¬dia, which had arrived freely in May,ruled with great steadiness. Attention is nowlargely directed tu thu prospects of the growingcrop on this side, the general opinion being thattho yield will be somewhat in excess of the lastone, after making all duo allowance for inunda¬tions and the unsettled condition of labor-thoconclusion hoing founded largely upon the factthat last season was very unfavorable, and theseed poor. Tho state of trade in Manchester hasvisibly improved under tho encouraging accountsfrom India, where the markets have shown unex¬

pected strength, in view of the enormous suppliesof goods from England.

A GAIN OF FOUBTEEN CONOBESSMEN.-It is a fairquestion for the Radicals to consider how longthey could retain their majority, even in the RumpCongress, if all the States should follow ihe exam¬

ples of the last two in which Congressional elec¬tions have been held--Connecticut and Eentuckv.In those States there is thc extraordinary and un¬

precedented chango of fourteen Congressmenagainst them. If Ohio. Pennsylvania, New Yorkand the other great States were now to elect theentire politi ;al composition of tho House of Rep¬resentatives would undoubtedly bo changed.

[Citi. Enquirer.Wo find the foregoing statement going the

rounds of the Southern press. Tho CincinnatiEnquirer ought to know that no good can resultfrom such delusions as it is calculated to produce.It ought to know that parties havo been closelybalanced in Connecticut-formerly a Democraticstronghold-and that victory has alternated dur¬ing tho last five years between tho opposing par¬ties by very small majorities; and that in the lostelection the democrats needed a gain of but fivehundred votes to enaüo them to corry the State.it ought to know that tho cause which wouldoperate to give tho anti-radical p irty a victory inthe Southern States of Kentucky, would have aneffect directly the reverse lu the* Northern States.

It imposes upon popular credulity and createshopes upon a hollow basis when it talks aboutwhat would happen in Ohio and New York if elec¬tions were now to be hold in these states. It hasbeen but a few weeks since an election took placeIn New York when but little ovor half of the votesin the State were cast, and tho Republicenmajority was twenty thousand. As for Ohio, wemay infer what would be the result of an electionin that State from tho fact that in Cincinnati re¬

cently, tho Radicals elected their Mayor by fourthousand majority.There may be a change in thc tide of public sen¬

timent in the North at some future day, but it willlot be in time to reverse thc decrees of the presentCongress, which has a term of two years to run.

[GENERAL ORDERS NO. 26.]It appears from sundry petitions and official reprt

scntations that tho present scanty supply of lood in thCarolinas is seriously diminiahel by the large quanlltof groin consumed in numerous distilleries, put up an

worked in defiance of the revenue laws of the UniteStates ; it is reprcs nted that few or none of the requinmeats of law are observed in any of these establishmentsthat tho officers of the Internal revenue service, whUendeavoring to assess and collect the whiskey tax, ar

frequently treated with disrespect, and sometime

menaced with violence; and that when offenders ar

prosecuted in thc civil courts, and violations of the interuol revenue laws indisputably proved, juries fail V

convict the parties ; it is further shown that this un

lawful traffic makes food dearer In places where larg«numbers are depending upon public and private bountythat tho Government is, cuides, defrauded of a largiamount of revenue ; that the authority of its civil officeris brought into contempt ; and furthermore, that th<

mischief complained of tends to increase poverty, dis

order and crime ; therefore, in the exercise of the au

thority vested in the Commanding General, lt is orderec

that-I. The distillation or manufacture of whiskey or othei

spirits from grain, is prohibited in this Military District

Any person so engaged or employed will be deemed guil¬ty of a misdemeanor. The possession of a still, or othei

apparatus for this purpose, will be considered presump¬tive evidence of a violation of the Revenue Laws, and the

party or parties using the samo, or on whose premie s,

or in whose possession the same may be found, will be

arrested aud brought to trial before a military tribunal

composed of tho Commanding 0.ticer of the Post andtwo officers of the army, next in rank on duty within the

territorial limits of tho Post If the exigencies of the

service do not permit tho detail of other officers, thatfact will be duly certified and tho Post Commander will

hoar and determine the case.

II. Thc penalties, punishments and forfeitures pre¬scribed by the several acts of Congress for distilling or

manufacturing whiskey or other spirits in violation of

the revenue laws will bc imposed and executed by themi li.arv tribunals hereby authorized.LIL No sentence extending to.lmprisonment forfeiture

of stills, liquor or other property, or the imposition of a

linc or other peualty will be carried into effect uu til re¬

ported to those Headquarters and approved by the Com-

m-.riding General.IV. All troops of the United States, Magistrates, Sheriffs,

Constables, Police and others in authority, are required,and all citizens arc solicited, to be vigilant in detectingand prompt in giving information of the violation oftlicso orders. Commanding officers will be held re¬

sponsible for their enforcement.By command of Major-General D. E. SICKES.
