The Yelverton marriage trial in Scotland. --The London Times, June 15th, says: The process in the Court of Session relative to the question of a Scotch marriage does not promise to be speedily settled. Some time ago the Lord Ordinary remitted to Mr. Crichton, advocate, to take proof by commission in the case, and the proof for the pursuer (Miss Longworth, alias Mrs. Yelverton,) has been reported by the Commissioner, along with numerous appeals on both sides, as to questions refusedMrs. Yelverton,) has been reported by the Commissioner, along with numerous appeals on both sides, as to questions refused or allowed in the course of the proof. The Lord Ordinary (Ardmillan) having heard counsel on these appeals, issued an "interlocutor" on Thursday disposing of them. There are only two points of importance involved in the appeals. His Lordship has found that in respect it is alleged by the pursuer, as a ground of action, that marriage was constituted by cohabitation and habit and repute, it is competent to prove what was the opinion formed at the time by witnesses having the opportunity of obs

From Gov. Wise's Legion.the Valley of Virginia — a beautiful country — how the minions crossed into Virginia — depredations — a battle expected, &c., &c.[special correspondence of the Dispatch] Wise's Legion, Gaulet Bridge, July 13, 1861. I drop you a line in haste from this romantic spot.

Tariston and Hamilton here made their abode — the latter in the headquarters now appropriated to the use of our Colonel by the generous hospitality of the owner, Dr. Wiley Eppes, of Buckingham, Va. Washington and Lafayette each visited this venerable mansion, and it is now to every Carolinian classic ground. The camp was honored some ten days ago by a special visit from Gov. Winslow, our eminent Secretary of Military and Naval Affairs, who has from the beginning showed a deep interest in the 5th. He was received at the station by the Colonel and officers, conducted to a carriage which stood in waiting, and escorted by two companies of soldiers to headquarters. There beneath the green old trees, and on the verdant carpet of turf in front of the house, he delivered an impromptu address to the soldiery as stirring as it was felicitous. He called upon them to do battl
