tory, though achieved gloriously, over double our numbers, was dearly won. We have to mourn the loss of 86 heroes, and have 106 wounded. Major Lockridge was killed in the charge when the battery was taken, falling at the head of his column, and at the foot of a gun, but lived long enough to see victory crown our arms. In skill and bravery, he was surpassed by none. In his death the Confederacy has sustained a heavy loss; and his name will fill a bright page in our country's history. Capt Ven-Velt, of the 2d regiment, was also killed. He was a German, an old soldier, and a survivor of many campaigns. Capt. Lang, of the 2d regiment, was seriously wounded.

dispatch was send off just at the close of the fight, and it was probable that General Johnston and been wounded, and, as in often the case, had been reported dead. At all events, it would be well to wait until we are well informed, or until the first dispatch was corroborated. Mr. Davis, of North Carolina, stated that he dispatch announcing the death of General Johnston was sent to the Adjutant General by General Beauregard. It was emphatic. Mr. Wigfall replied that was so, but Gen. Van-Dorn had also telegraphed on a former occasion that Col. Robert had been killed in battle, when he afterwards turned up alive and is yet alive. In the excitement of a battle-field nothing can be known with positive certainty. On account of the uncertainty, the resolutions were not on at the time. The Texas frontier.

C. S. District Court. --The time of this Court yesterday was occupied in the trial of James Tyror, charged with knowingly passing a counterfeit Confederate Treasury note. The successful trial of the accused on the part of the Government hinging on the fact of his knowledge of the spurious character of the note passed by him, and the evidence leaving that point in doubt, the jury gave the prisoner the benefit of the doubt and acquitted him. The Grand Jury of this Court will meet today to take cognizance of the case of Geo. W. Elam, who is charged with an offence similar to Tyrer's. E. F. Husted may be tried to day, for an alleged attempt to bribe the Commissioner of Patents.
