ound net. There was a case before the U. S. Provisional Court. Judge Peabody, of some interest. Lucien Adams, shortly after the advent of Butler, was arrested and imprisoned in one of the forts, where be has been ever since. His counsel, Col. Field, had made repeated, but unavailing efforts for a trial or admission to bail. The only crime which the accused had committed was merely the avowal, before the occupation of the city by Yankee, of a preference for the Southern Confederacy. Subsciatively their white "brethren." The principal speakers were T. J. Durant and Col. Fields. The former is described as speaking passionately. When did we who know him ever see that cold, unsympathetic nature kindled to passion? The voracious Col. Field enlightened the meeting as to the cause of the war, and amused his intelligent audience by holding up to their ridicule those whom he honored by the title of the leaders of this rebellion. This is the same Col. Fields who a few months ago, whe

overpowered, gallantly out their way out. Two regiments of Gen. Gragg's brigade, under Col. Wyndham and Col. Kilpatrick, had hot work all the morning, but drove the enemy from the river to Brandy Station. The rebels were numerically superior to us, including our small supporting force of infantry. Not withstanding this we drove them back handsomely, and captured 200 prisoners and one stand of colors.--They had five large brigades under command of Generals Fitzhugh Lee, W. F. H. Lee, Jones, Field, and Robinson, with sixteen pieces of artillery under Maj. Breckham. They had been reviewed the previous day by Gen. Lee, and were under orders to leave on their grand raid into Maryland and Pennsylvania to-morrow (Wednesday) morning.--Important papers have been captured in the camp of Jones brigade, showing the strength of the whole rebel force and its attentions. The fight was discontinued about 3 o'clock, the rebels falling back upon strong infantry supports, which came up by ra

Licensed ordinaries. --At the Hustings Court held in May, 1863, Messrs. Field & Taliaferro were granted a license to keep an ordinary, which was kept under the name of "Congress Hall," said establishment having been destroyed by the fire which occurred during the week last past. The second license granted by the said Court was to Mr. Charles Hunt. Since that time and up to the present date one hundred and forty-seven ordinary licenses have been granted by the same Court. This constitutes a large portion of the business carried on in the city. It is utterly impossible to compute the number of unlicensed doggeries, rum shops, small establishments, groceries, confectioneries, &c., (with bars in the rear,) some having a demijohn, others only a bottle, but all possessing a quanitan sufficit to deprive the poor soldier of the pittance allowed him by Government. Their name is legion. Let the reader imagine the sorrow, suffering, and anguish, entailed upon parents, wives, and chil

reased their force at the latter place since Marmaduke's raid, in which he captured 150 negroes and 300 horses and mules, and burned their commissary stores, with a loss of only 12 men. The Yankees, it will be remembered reported this as a repulse of Marmaduke. On Saturday, 12th, Capt. Adams, of Capers's command, with 50 men, surprised a party of Yankees and negroes on Bœuf river, killing 40 or 50 and capturing 12 prisoners and 20 odd horses, arms, &c., with the loss of one man. Judge Field, from the Indian Nation, who accompanies Mr. Branch, informs us that Cooper was returning towards the Arkansas river with two Texas regiments and a force of about 5,000 Indians, composed of two Choctaw, two Creek, and two Cherokee regiments, and a battalion of Seminoles. The Cherokees and Creeks are mostly expatriated and have taken refuge in the Choctaw nation, but maintain their position.

ade of lieutenant general, to be bestowed upon major generals most distinguished for courage, energy, and skill, was reported back by the Military Committee, and its consideration postponed till next Monday. The Senate's amendatory enrollment bill was reported by the Military Committee, with amendments, and referred to the Committee of the Whole, a course of act on indicating that the House is in no particular burry to pass it. The Committee on Elect one made a report against the claim of Mr. Field, of Louisiana, and Mr. Segar, of Virginia, as Representatives from those States. In Committee of the Whole the bill making appropriations for deficiencies, amounting to between four and five million dollars, for miscellaneous objects, was taken up and discussed. During the debate the Kentucky members indulged in all acrimonious personal controversy relative to their several political positions with reference to the slavery question. Mr. McDowell, (Opp) of Ind., offered a series of r

On the retreat, after the battle of Krasnoi, he was taken prisoner in an attempt to reach the headquarters of the Emperor, with dispatches from Marshal Ney, and carried before no less a personage than Field Marshal Prince Kutusoff himself. Here he was examined with great strictness by the Marshal himself, whom he represented as an old man apparently on the verge of dotage, very cunning, and very feeble of body. He always expressed the belief that his answers to the questions proposed to him during this examination had the effect of misleading Kutusoff, and thereby of materially assisting the escape of Marshal Ney, with the remnant of his corps. His destiny was Siberia, of course, and there h
