Rascally Yankee sutlers.

--Two sutlers, Wm. DeCosey and Andrew Glarry, who for some time past have been furnishing supplies to Stockton's independent Michigan regiment, in General Fitz John Porter's division, were to-day brought up with a round turn. Finding that the soldiers were obtaining supplies of liquor from some unknown source, Mayor Davis made an investigation of their establishment and stock. Aside from a large supply of whiskey, he found about eight thousand dollars in counterfeit bills, which they had been industriously distributing among the men. The entire stock of goods was confiscated, which, with two horses and four wagons, is estimated at ten thousand dollars in value. The men have been brought to this city to await the action of the proper authorities. Most of the counterfeit money is on the Marion City Bank, which is broken.
