Confederate States District Count, yesterday. --William B. Briscoe and William H. Brown, members of Dement's battery, who claim exemption from military service on the ground of Maryland citizenship, were yesterday before Judge Halyburton, of the Confederate States District Court, for his judgment in the matter. Mr. John H. Gilmer opened the argument for the petitioners, and was replied to on the part of the Commonwealth by Mr. Alexander H. Sends, after which the matter was postponed till this morning. [This decision, when rendered, will settle the case of twenty-nine others attached to the same company.] James H. Davis was awarded a writ of habeas corpus on the ground of being a minister of the gospel.
