FROM THE VALLEY. By a gentieman just arrived here from the Valley of Virginia, we get the following in re- @ard to affairs there: Crors in THE VALLEY.—THe corn crop of That part of the Valley of Virginia lying be- tween Winchester and Shepherstown, is look- ang very fine, andthe crop will be large. Above Winchester there is much destitution. Rey. Mr. Clymer, of the Presbyterian Church ‘a@t-Woodstock, has been visiting Baltimore and ther places, soliciting aid for the suffering. Cornty Court or Jerrerson County.— This court has been in session during the past Week at Shepherdstown, Va. Judge Baich, Zather-in-law of Rey. Dr. Cummins, formerly ef Trinity Church, of this city, presides with @reat ability. A number of presentments for Treason haye been made by the grand jury. ‘The suspected murderers of Henry Unsell and Mr. Snyder are about to be put on trial. A.R. Borxerer.—This gentleman, formerly ®& member of the U.S. House of Representa- tives, and more latterly of the so called «Con- dederate Congress,” has returned to Shepherds- town, and is quietly living in retirement. Alp FoR THE VALLEY.—Rey. Samuel V. Leech, formerly pastor of the Shepherdstown Whurch, has been visiting the Valley of Vir- Binia, distributing the generous contributions of the citizens of Anne Arundel county, Md., mong the destitute and impoverished. EXCURSION BY THE PRESIDENT. President Johnson, accompanied by Secre- tary Weiles, Hon. Preston King, Assistant Secretary Fox, the Chief Clerk of the Navy Department, Mr. Faxon, Col. Wright Rives, of the Executive Office, and Surgeon Duvall, U. S.N., on Saturday made an excursion in the ‘U-S. steamer Hornet, (formerly the magnifi- cent blockade runner Lady Sterling,) down into the Chesapeake. It was intended to run out beyond the capes, but in consequence of the roughness of the bay the party rounded Point Lookout and steamed about fifty miles towards Baltimore, returning at seven o'clock last evening. The President was much refreshed by the trip, and is to-day engaged in his exhausting labors With renewed vigor. AN INTERESTING TRIAL. To-morrow it is expected that the case of Captain Henry Werz, late of the Confederate army, and commandant of the Anderson mili- tary prison, where so many of our braye sol- qdiers perished through the inhuman treatment of the rebel officers, will be taken up by the court-martial of which Brigadier General @Wnderwood is President, and Colonel N P. Chipman, Judge Advocate. The accused has een fora few weeks past in the Old Capitol Prison, and the court is to-day engaged in pre- paring charges and summoning witnesses, preparatory to 2 commencement to-morrow. He is charged with violating the customs of ‘war while he was in command of that prison, «(from March Ist, 1864, to April 10th, 1965). The Specifications set forth that he grossly neglect- ed to care for those placed in his charge; that hhe refused them a sufficient amount of food, and the giving spoiled meat, &c., tothe men; that he refused them water, and forced them to airink water into which had been thrown and rained the slops from cook houses and camps; unduly punishing some for minor offences, by ehaining them together until they died; giving them no shelter from heat or cold and robbing them of their clothing and blankets. 4&7 Attorney General Speed has rendered a. ©pinion to Secretary McCullough upon claims Zor cotton captured by Sherman in Savannah. He decides that all cotton taken by military forces in insurrectionary districts is captured property, within the meaning of the statute of 1563, whether owned by loyal men or not. He also holds that reconrse must be had in dis- ‘puted cases to the Court of Claims, and that Jurisdiction cannot be conferred upon a com- mission appointed either by the President or Secretary of tne Treasury. to examine the claims in question, and to make restoration of the proceeds of so much of the cotton as may belong to loyal claimants. wr The Postmaster General is deterr\ined to Stop the carrying of letters to Europe by @teamers not employed in the regular mail service; and, bereafter, none of these vessels will be allowed to carry letters ina “ship's bag,” even when inclosed in United States Government envelopes. The rule will be so strictly applied that consignees of goods will wilso be included in its operations. PORTRAIT OF PRESIDENT JOHNSON.—Mr. John W. Dodge, the artist, has produced an excellent portait of President Johnson. A resident of East Tennessee himself, and well Amowing President Johnson, he was especial- Jy qualified for the task of painting him, and be bas performed it with singular success.

Boston Boot anp SHoe MARKET, July 20, ‘The Shoe and Leather Reporter says:—“There has been a noticable activity in the Boot and Shoe trade the past week, and the anticipations of previous dates are being realized. Buyers who are here from tne West and South are ap- parently satisfied that there is no prospect for. a decline in prices, and are buying their assort- mepts with as much dispatch as poasible. Shipments by rail and sea the past week show ® good improvement, being more than double ahose of last week. From the appearance of our streets and warehouses devoted to the dif- ferent branches of the trade, we are reminded of the lively times before the war.” WF The theatrical wordrobe of J. Wilkes Booth, the assassin, which was picked up from the wreck of the schooner Marie Victoria, has been sold by auction in Canada. Though most of the articles were greatly damaged by salt ‘water, they realized high prices.

Wilson, Chief Commissary of the Army of the Potomac during the last year of its campaign, has justreturned from an inspecting tour in the Middle Department, and resumed his duties at the Commissary office, on F street, : Major Wiley, depot Commissary at Brandy Station and City Point for the Army of the Potomac, has been assigned to duty with Col. Bell, as inspector. Capt. S. C. Greene, has yacated his commis- sion as Commissary of Sabsistence of Volun- teers, to take the rank of Captain in the 15th U.S. Infantry, it not being allowable for an officer to hoid a commission of the same grade in both branches of the service. The Captain entered the army in 1840, served with the 2d U.S. Infantry through the Forida and Mexi- can wars, after which he left the service in consequence of ill health. He was commis- sioned again in 1861, since which time he has had charge of the Government bakery here, the most complete establishment of its kind ever organized. This bakery has furnished over 100,000 loaves of bread per day, and has been visited for information by officers of most of the European armies. REBEL IMPUDENCE, The Rev. C. K. Marshall, of Mississippi, is here, seeking to protect from- confiscation his estate, one of the largest in the South, and has suddenly become very much enamoured of the Government, which a few months since he was the foremost in denouneing. No effort has been spared by him in “firing the Southern heart,” and otherwise aiding the rebellion. In a speech in the Mississippi Legislature, last March, he denounced our army as a mob of “reeking filth,’ and assured his auditors that the South could not be subjugated while ‘the peerless son of the West,” Forrest, (of Fort Pillow,) was.a2 commander. There is yery little probability of his succeeding here. BIDS FOR HIDES, &c. The following were the bids for hides, tallow, hoofs, horns, chucks, shins and tongues opened on Friday last at the office of Col. Bell, Depot C.8.: ©._G. Baugh, Philadelphia, $10.50 per head; W.H. Peatz, Baltimore, $5.31; Thos. Claren- don, New York, $10.11; James E,. Bathgate, Newark, N. J., $9.16. The contract was awarded to Mr. Baugh. The contractor is charged for each animal slaughtered at the yarious camps contiguous to this copes wheth- er the hide, tallow, &c., is taken by him or not.

TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. pulikieae ells IMPORTANT FROM CHARLESTOD Mutiny of the Duryea |Zouaves—They Refuse to be Disarmed—Cannon Charged with Grape and Cannister Trained Upon the Mutinous Troops—The Zouayes are Disarmed and Sent to Fort Sumter for Imprisonment. New Yors, July 24.—The steamer Zodiac bring Savannah dates to the 20th instant. The Sayannah Herald’s Orangeburg, South Carolina, correspondence says that place is yet mostly lying in ashes. Railroads are being rapidly repaired. Laborers are receiving $12 a month, The crops are in a fine condition. All of the towne in South Carolina are, or soon will be occupied by the national troops. The Charleston Courier of the isth instant Says the 165th regiment of New York volunteers (ours ees Zonaves) were reinoyed to Morris sland for taking part in the disturbances in the city. They have exhibited a mutinous spirit since their remoyal. Gen. Gilmore sent an order demanding the colors of the regiment, but the Colonel refused to give them up, and he was placed under ar- rest, and the colors demanded of the second officer in command. He, too, refused; but on Gen. Hatch explaining that his conduct would be mutiny, while the Colonel’s would simply be disobedience of orders, he promised to de- liver the colors up, but when a delivery was mide it was found that only the staff and rub- ber covers had been delivered. It was then determined to disarm the whole regiment. Other troops were brought forward with their guns charged with grape and cannister, and trained upon the mutinous troops, and orders were given to fire upon them in case any re- sistance was offered. The Zouaves seeing all further opposition was useless, they quietly stacked their arms and were marched off un- der a guard to Fort Sumter, thefe to expiate their crime. FROM MEXICO, More Fighting—Threats to Filibusters. * New York, July 24.—The steamer Liberty, arrived from Havana on the 14th, via Vera Crug op theyioth. The Vera Cruz Revjita says three columns, under Gens. Mejia, Bringcourt, and Jeanning- | ror,’ were ordered to operate against Negrete, each column taking « separate road.

The plaintiff sued for materials and labor in building a house upon a lot of ground rented by him from the defendant for two fone from April, 1865. The plaintaiff, after building the house, abandoned itand vacated the lot, and sued for the value of the house, labor, &c., alleging that he had a right to repudiate the contract of renting, and refuse to pay rent, and to quit and surrender up the premises and sue for the materials and labor expended upon the lot, upon the ground that the defendant bad disturbed his right to a emall portion of the back end of the lot. On the part of defendant it was maintained that even if the facts were as stated by the plaintiff, they did not work a forfeiture of the contract of renting, nor absolve him from liability to pay the rent, nor give him any right to sue for the house or labor, &c., and Taylor’s Landlord and Tenant, sec. 355, was quoted, to show that if the tenant surrenders part of his estate to the lessor, the rent will be apportioned and pay- able only in respect to the residue of the prem- iges; and if he be evicted from part by force of paramount title, that will not operate as a sus- pension of the whole rent, but it will be appor- tioned and payable only for the residue; and judgment was accordingly rendered in fayor of the defendant upon this part of the plaintiff's demand. Mr. Drury for plaintiff, and Df. Thompson for defendant. Julia M. Lorick vs. James Tharp—Before John H. Johnson, Esq. This action was bought to recover one month’s rent, payable in advance, for the month of July, 1865. It ap- peared in evidence that the premises in ques- tion were rented to the defendant by a written lease for one year, from the Ist of April, 1865, at $40 per month, payable monthly in advance; and that the defendant look possession and oc- cnpied the house and paid the rent until some time in June and then vacated the premises and refused to pay the rent due on the firstday of July, alleging that the bouse had become un- ,tenantable by reason of dampness, &c. The ‘defendant examined they house, &c., previous to the execution of the lease, and there was no warranty in the lease as to the habitableness of the premises, and tho pigett, hy her counsel, quoted Taylor's Landlord and Tenant, Sec. 381, 328 and 329, showing that there isno im- plied warranty on the letting of a house or land .that it sball be reasonably fit for habitation or cultivation, or any other pu for which it ‘wasrented, and that the abandonment of premi- 806 by reason of thpir aniahabitablenoss, forms no defence to.an ection for rent, and that itis betin the power of the tenant to make repairs at the ex: tf hig landlord, unless there be a i gn them authorizing e tenant takes the e, and cannot in- ses for repairs Bi the tenant is it of reat during are untenanta- mean time, un- ent tothe con- premiee: vol t bl e les8 the repmp Sutigmi for pl EXTENSION OF THE Finw ALARM AND POLIcE Tre RAPH.—Onr city authorities are engaged in extending the fire alarmand which has proyen to beso yatuable mm ‘connec tion with the departments with whichit is connected. The extension of the wirés and the fiddition of alarm boxes wilf add greatly’to thé efficiency of the fire. Asparimant, e ing the stéatiers th ¢0 directly to localities which are now distant from the point at which the warm ig sounded upon occasions of fire. The city Senate ordered ten new boxes, whic! now being constructed, and these willbe located ‘at points here they are most needéd, but not yet fixed npon. The addition of ten boxes Will increase the’ number of boxes to. 5% and the alarm signals or numbers will run up to72, The reason that the numbers exceed the boxes is simply because in order to indicate the boxes with certainty, numbers t0_ 11, 20, 22, 30, 38, 40, 44, 50, 55, 60, and 66, are omitted, as the cyphers cannot be indicated, and numbers omitted would be but a repetition of numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. It is also designed, as we haye already stated, to connect a wire with the United States Ob- seryatory, so that the hours may be struck upon the alarm bells throughout the city. We learned trom Superintendent Talcott that in- struments for this improvement haye been ordered. It is not proposed to strike all the hours of the day; butat 12 m., 6a. m. and 6 p. m. The entire community will be pleased with this improvement, and especially the mechanics and others who begin and end their work at those hours. The transfer of the Third Ward police to the Central Guarnhouse will make the transfer of the alarm box No. 35 from the corner of E and Sth streets to the Central Guardhouse, or the xing of another box at the latter point, neces- a Gutif. M. Thompson fis for defendant, + All the work of adding to the boxes and instruments, and extending the wires or adding new wires, will be done under the supervision of Superintendent Talcott, of the telegraph department, ' Crna Court,—Judge Wylie —This morn- ing, James Brockler, indicted for the larceny ot a mule, was found not guilty.

Mr. W. was highly esteemed by the citizens of Georgetown, and was an Odd Fellow, and member of ya- tious other benevolent orders. The best infor- mation we can obtain is that Mr.. Wagner was found dead upon the payement &% front of the house where he was stopping, am 1 it was not known whether he had been killew i or had fal- len out of the window. The body will be em- balmed and brought here for interm ent. CANAL, ANOTHER Break.—This morning Geo.

Superintendent Spates sent to this town for material to repair with immedigiety.
