BEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. TELEGRAMS, &c. The surgeon of the Atalanta states that the majority of her passengers were emigrants from Switzerland and the Southern part of Germany, and thatthey came by the way of Paris (where the cholera was raging) to Havre, and while there several died in board- ing houses, attended by. the Government bysicians. Unusual facilities were afforded = the officials for their shipment, and the anxiety to place them on shipboard was so great aa to cause inquiries on the part of the officers of the ship, who look upon the persons at Havre as responsible for the malady on board | the vessel. Since the passengers have been re- moved from the ship but few cases have oc- curred, and those of the mildest form. Hopes are entertained of the speedy disappearance of the malady. i] Colonel Fullerton has issued a circular re- | minding freedmen in Louisiana that the time is approaching to make contracts for labor for another year. Well known planters have | adopted a plan to get freedmen for picking cot- | ton with success, paying cach one every night for the cotton picked during the day. This is important, as many of the cotton-fields are un- picked, the freedmen refusing to work. In the Harris divorce case, in Connecticut, Judge Phelps has rendered a decision granting adivorce to Jonathan A. Harris against Mrs. Jane M. Harris. He gets a complete divorce, and the custody ofall the children, and she gets noalimony. By the laws of Connecticut, both can marry, if they choose. The overland stage was attacked by six rob- bers near Virginia City on Monday night, who took all the valuables of the express and pas- sengers. Among the passergers was J. L. Batcheldor, of Boston, who was robbed of £1,300. No one was injured. Information from Mississippi states that Governor Humphreys has called upon the | people of the State to organize companies toaid | the civil authormties in maintaining order, and cautions them against oppressing the freed- men. Captain J. O. Remmington, quartermaster at Chattanooga, was robbed of $20,000, by bur- glars breaking open the safe in the counting- Toom. Suspicion rests on four persons who have been arrested. A large mail for the Russian Telegraph ex- ploring party was lost in the wreck of the steamer Brother Jonathan on the Pacific coast. A State convention of colored men met in Poughkeepsie, New York, on Wednesday for the purpose of advancing the interests of their people in the State. The Austin, Texas, papers say a State Con- vention willbe called about the ist Fepruary. Trade between Mexico and Texas is increas- { | heldinfuture. The ing, and promises to be very large.

Matting- ly, attorney for the Ohio Valley Bank, served attachments upon Superintendent Richards and George R. Herrick, Property Clerk of the Metropolitan Police, requiring them to retain possession of money, jewelry, and other effects ot Daniel Miller. alias Allen, alias Harris, who was arrested by detectives Kelly and Bigley, and is now in jail for trialon charges of fraud upon the Bank of Commerce, of rgelown, and Stewart & Co., bankers, of this city. The prisoner is charged with stealing $7,802.88 from the Ohio Valley Bank, on June 8th, 1864, and the money and effects attached in the hands of the officers is claimed as part of the pepe of that theft. It is presumed that fore this claim can be satisfied, the claims of the Bank of Commerce for $1,000; and of Stew- art & Co. for over $600, must be met. As to the jewelry, it is strongly suspected that the splen- did diamond pin and ring are not his, but belong to one of his wives, the last one, and that she will claim them. The requisition from Ohio has not received, and the prisoner is in the cone jail. Yesterday, Mr. Starbuck, the police photographer, took a copy of his mug to adorn the es’ Gallery, and it is numbered 288, where those who have been bitten by him may have a chance to recognize his features.
