Affairs below Richmond. Although some persons were under the impression that they heard heavy firing down the river yesterday morning, we are quite safe in asserting that nothing has lately occurred to break the monotony of events in that direction. The portion of McClellan's army that was sent to the South side of the river continues to plunder the inhabitants without molestation, but we hear nothing further of an advance towards Richmond or Petersburg.--The "seat of war" has been suddenly transferred to a distance from the capital, and meanwhile the Yankee gunboats seem to be in no hurry to test the strength of our batteries at Drury's Bluff.

Suicide. --Acting Coroner Sanxay was summoned yesterday morning to the house of Mr. Wm. H. Leech, on Madison, near Broad street, to investigate the circumstances attending the death of Miss Eliga Aun Nowlan, his housekeeper, who, soon after her breakfast, was found in her bed in an unconscious state, evidently produced by poison of some kind, and shortly thereafter expired, though everything was done that could be by Dr. Davis, who was summoned and soon in attendance. On examination, evidence of poison could plainly be discovered, showing that death was self- inflicted.--Deceased was about nineteen years of age, born of English parents in South America. Her disposition was represented as amiable and her temper cheerful. No evidence was produced to show the special kind of agent used by the unfortunate young woman in taking her own life and the only possible excuse offered and alleged for the act is found in the fact that a few days since she was mildly chided by Mr. Leech for

The affair is involved in considerable mystery, and the only one that could elucidate it has gone the way of all fresh.
