Lindsay, a free negro, were charged with purloining a carpet bag, containing $75 worth of clothing and a watch valued at $30.

They were committed for further trial.--George, slave of Wm. Causey, was punished for stealing a bag, of flour and two soldiers' shirts from the St. Charles Hospital.--John Mitchell, a free darkey from South Carolina, was permitted to make himself invisible on the production of certain papers, showing his right to freedom. --Sally Ann Finney, free negress, was punished for offering to bribe one of the city police, who had taken her up for some petty offence.

ing in the duties of the officer incompatible with the obligations of the gentleman. While he is a strict disciplinarian, he appreciates the community of interests of the officer and private in this war for mutual independence, and faithfully protects the rights of the men entrusted to his charge. As might be supposed, he is the idol of his brigade, and respected in an eminent degree by the whole division. The Adjutant General of this brigade is Capt. Jas Mitchell, second son of Mr. John Mitchell, of the Richmond Enquirer, and one of the most intelligent and brave young officers of the army. Prof. Johns, an eminent and successful teacher of Alabama, and a gentleman of rare accomplishments, is a private in the signal corps of Early's division. As the invasion of Pennsylvania did not equal fully the expectations of Gen. Lee, who magnanimously assumes all responsibility under reverse, and modestly assumes less than is due him in success, it is to be regretted now that th

Killed at Gettysburg. --It has been ascertained that among those killed at Gettysburg was Wm. Mitchell, a son of John Mitchell, now well known to be connected with the editorial department of the Richmond Enquirer. He was a private in the 1st Virginia regiment, and had fought most gallantly in all the battles in Virginia.

The Confederate loan. --In the year 1860 our townsman, John Mitchell, Esq., being at the time in Paris, wrote a letter to a Charleston paper, the object of which was to prove that "Cotton was not King," and that the reliance placed upon it to force a recognition from the Western Powers, especially Great Britain, was slender and precarious. He stated that, in his opinion, one great object of the war with China, then just concluded, was undertaken mainly with a view to open the cotton tradation of the plant in this new quarter. This view of the case was, at the time, quite new to us; and was the occasion of several articles in this paper, in which we endeavored to give it all the weight which we thought it certainly deserved. Mr. Mitchell, however, and we after him, left entirely out of view one consideration, which has since proved to be of the utmost importance. The English and French were able to take Pekin, but they were not able to make the Chinese exchange commodities, o
