Potzell gave $150 security for assaulting Sigismond Herzberg, and as the latter had in some sort, by petty annoyances, provoked it, he was also required to give security. In the assault, Herzberg received a cut on the head, which Dr. Gavinzel sewed up.--Wm. Kennedy, Wm. Andrews, Jas. Garman, and Thos Hogan, were required to answer for going into and through the house of Lucy Smith, a colored female, and taking her table and chairs and commencing on her premises a game of "old sledge," without her consent. Defendants alleged that nothing was staked on the game, which was the result only of a little fun on their part.

Commander Montgomery commanded our fleet." The Avalanche says that three cases of yellow fever are reported in New Orleans.

Advance of the enemy up the Mississippi.the surrender of Vicksburg demanded.the Mayor's reply, &c. Mobile, May 19. --A special dispatch to the Advertiser says that five of the enemy's fleet arrived in sight of Vicksburg yesterday noon. A boat with a flag of truce was stopped by our batteries a mile and a half below, when the ferry boat went down, and returned with a summons to surrender the city. The Mayor replied that he was unprotected, but would never surrender. Colonel Anthony (the Military Governor) and General Smith, commanding the forts, answered, "Mississippians never surrender!" Two additional gunboats arrived later in the afternoon, when the fleet moved over this side of the river, behind a point. All quiet this morning.
