The counsel of Davis will announce their readiness to proceed with the trial, and in the event of postponement will submit an application for bail. District Attorcey Chand- ler will probably not be presentat this session ofthe court, owing tothe serious illness of a member of his family. Major Hennessy, as- sistant district attorney, will represent the Government. Barton N.

Generals Steadman and Fullerton had an in- teresting conference this Saturdry with the freedmen at Springfield church, Georgia. A number of prominent citizeas were present.

There is also one case of yellow fever at quarantine. The following will explain the facts “HosriTaL Suir Fatcon, June 2. 1866.— Cyrus Curtiss, President of the Commissioners of Quarantine -—-With this please find report of the changes in hospital since the previous re. port. There are twenty-six new admissions to the hospital ship, and twelve deaths have occurred. The brig Bertha, Captain Deplein, twenty-one days from Ponce, Porto Rico, ar. rived here yesterday at noon. She lost on the passage two men, and she has now one sick on board with yellow fever. There is no place for yellow fever patients here. The hospital expressly provided for those sick of this dis- ease is full of cholera patients, and their num- ber is rapidly on the increase. You will see by the detached report that the mortality in hospital 1s rapidly increasing. A large portion of the cases sent here are moriburd. Every foot of room on the hospital ship is occupied by the sick and dying. The sickness on the steamship Peruvian is largely on the increase, and unless we can transier her passengers to some other place taey must mostly die. «D. H. Bissett, “Depnty Health Officer.” The report of deaths embraces the names of the twelve persons alluded to. Four of them were trom the steamship Union, and the re- maining eight were from the Peruvian. Their ages vary from three to sixty ycars, and near- jy all were Germans, Swedes, and Danes The list of new cases. embracing 26 names, shows thatall the patients came from the s! Peruvian. i Scurposep Suicipy.—Abont a quarter past 11 o’clock on Saturday night a man bamed Obas. Springer, belonging to Bangor, Maine, whilst <booting atthe pistol gallery of Mr. Warren, est cg pee street, shot bimselfthrough - Drs Reed and Rich were called to at. tema him, but his injuries were of cuch a natare as to preclude all hope of recovery, and he died in about twohours. Dr. H. Greentree, coroner, beld an inquest, the onty witness being the per- son in attendance at the room, and from whose testimony it appeured that the deceased on en- tering the gallery paid one dollar for a certain number of shots, and had fired all except two, when he fell to the floor with the wound in his bead. The jury rendered a verdict that the de- ceased came to his death from a pistol shot by his own hands while laboring under tempo- rary insanity. The body was removed to the dead house at the central Police station. Springer was rather genteelly dressed, and ap- peared to be without funds. On his person were found a number of letters, tod ctr fl written but recently, and signed by him. In one of them to a friend he speaks of being very poor, having been robbed of all his money; in another to Secretary Stanton he resigns his position as a clerkin the War Department, and to his mother he writes of his depressed spirits, and expresses tears of losing his mind. From the letters he appears to haye a son bya deceasec wife, and was about marrying again in Baltimore. faltimore Sun of this morning. eae oe Se Se a OLD SCHOOL PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY.— An exciting scene occurred in the Old School Presbyterian Assembly, at St. Louis, Thurs- day. After warm debate, Rev. W. M. Fergu- son, of Zanesville, Ohio, was expelled for in- dulging in slanderous correspondence con- cerning one of his fellow members. The Louisville case was further debated and brought to a final vote on Friday last. Tbe amendment of Dr. Humphrey was laid on the table, and the substitute of Dr. Gurley taken up and passed by a vote of 196 to 37. This substitute condemns the declaration and testi- mony asa slander against the church, schis- matical jn ijs character, and its adoption by any churen is declared an act of rebellion aguimst authority. The General Assembly summons all signers of the declaration. and all members of the Presbytery who voted for il, to appear before the next General Assembly to answer for their conduct, and prohibits them from sitting as members of any church court higher than asession until their cases are decided, and dissolves any Presbytery that disregards this action of the Assembly, and yests al] Presbyterian authority in such min- isters and elders of said Presbytery as adhere to the action of the Assembly. THE Suypay Law in Battiwore.—The Baltimore American of this morning says: “The uew Sunday law went into operation yesterday, and though there were many ob- jections to some of its provisions, it was very universally obeyed. It was during the day the subject of general conversation. ‘So faras itinterdicts the sale of liquor on Sunday there is no general opposition to its provisions, but its stringency which dries up soda-fountains and closes confectionery stores, whilst barber shops and livery stables are pormitted two be open and engaged in business with as much freedom 4s On other days of the week, pro- yoxed unfavorable comment and complaint. The usual sale of Sunday papers onthe streets was prohibited by the police, and it is proba- ble that the Courts will be called upon to set- Ue the intent of the law in that respect. Some of the apothecaries also refused to sell medi- eines except upon a pbysician’s Aye Kaper but we cee nothing in the law ren that necessary.” &7 The new theatre The Chatelet, in Paris, is crammed, ites 6 night, from floor to ceiling, to witness the brihiant marvels of @ new called “The MagicTantern,” and in which one of the prettiest actresses of Paris, Mile.

An eye-witness of the engagement near Ridg- Way says :—-The Fenians, one thousand strong, uuder Gen. O'Neil, had reached a small vil- jage, ten miles from Waterloo Ferry, when the scouts announced a large force of Cana- Gians. The Fenians tore down « fence and went intoan adjoining field, where they formed in line of battle, O'Neal being assisted by Cols. Starr and O’Brien in making a dispositiva of the troops. The volunteers advanced upon the Femians, when the action commenced, the skirmishers on both sides exchanging a brisk fire. The order was then given for the Fenian skirmishers to fall back. The main body on both sides fired several volleys, when the Fe- nians advanced on the double quick with fixed bayonets; but as the volunteers were ranged in an orchard on the other side of a swamp. and separated from the Fenians by thick brush wood, Gen. O'Neil deemed acharge useless, and gave an order to halt,and fell back. The volunteers believing this a retreat, advanced from their shelter on a run. They were met, however, by the Fenians with a counter charge. and instantly Put to rout, the Fenians pursuing them for two miles, when O'Neil ordered a halt. The volunteers were com pletely demoralized, and continued their Nightto Port Colborne. The loss on the Fe- nian side is six killed and fifteen wounded. That of the volunteers twenty-three in ail, killed and wounded. After stopping the pur. suit, the main body of the Fe: ns proceeded toward Fort Erie, leaving a guard over the wounded on both sides. Of the Canadian volunteers, a lieutenant colonel, name unknown, was killed the first fire; also, Lieutenant P. S. Roath, of the Ham- iton volunteers; Ensign Malcolin MeKehan, ot Toronto; Corp’] Newhouse, of the +) neen’s Own.” Charhk Lugsden, of Toronto, was very dangeron: wounded; Readings Ford, of the “(Queen's Own,” wounded in the leg. and J. W. Stuart, of the Hamilton volun- teers. The volunteers were 1,400 strong, under the command of Colonel Buchanan Routh, when dying, asked permission of Gen O'Neil to retain his sword, which request was granted. A portion of the volunteers, on reaching Fort Erie, took retuge on the steam tug Thos. Robb, but shortly returned to shore, remain- ing in the neighborhood of Waterloo Ferry. About half-past three, some thirteen Fenians were seen crossing the brow of a hill, when the volunteers valiantly rushed out to capture them, but as they reaclied the base of the hill. about ~W0 Fenians appeared, and charged pre- cipitately upon them. The volunteers broke and scattered through the woods. About 70 of them were captured. Some of them again got on bourd the tug, w’ > others were ron- ning along the shore, alm ceazy in their ef- forts to secure shelter. The beach, which was was covered with guns and kaapsacks, thrown away in their flight, resembled the first Bull Run battle-field. TORONTO, June 3—2 8. m.—A despatch from Waterloo says Col. Dennis’s command, nam- bering about eizhty men,engaged eighty or one hundred Feniads about half-pastiwo. Gen'l O'Neil ordered the Fenians to charge upon the volunteers with fixed bayonets, when the yol- unteers broke and ran in every direction, throwing away hats, belts, cartrid e- boxes, &c. By three o'clock the field of Waterloo was in possessien of the Fenians. Col. Dennis is said to be wounded. Two Fenians were killed, and the British had five or six wound- ed. Reinforcements for the Fenians haye crossed at Frenchman's creek. Tbe operator at Port Colborne reports a large body of Feni- ans crossing to Canada. CuirTox, C. W.. June 2—s p. m.—The Feni- ans are menaced to-day by two columns, moy- ing in opposite directions—one organized at Port Colborne, two thousand streng, infantry and artillery; another unaer Colonel Peacock, of Crimean reputation, now commanding the i6th British regulars. The latter column marched to Block creek, but. being misled, started for Port Colborne as hastily as Possible. All the information they received on the road was contradictory, and the march yas so = ing tothe men that nnmbers fell out of the ranks, prostrated -by sunstroke. Peacock was finally obliged to balt and go into camp. Re- ports then came in that the Fenians were driv. ing the volunveers, and Peacock deemed it pra- dent to getin communication with the other column above referred to before proceeding farther. Nothing more was accompiished. The i6th regulars have many Irishmen among them, who, though professing loyalty, are suspected. The Fenians scrupulously refrain from pil- jaging; no outrages ox citizens or property are perpetrated. Beurya.o, June 3.—The Fenians evacuated Fort Erie last night, and most of them at- tempted to reach this shore, but only a small number succeeded. About seven hundred were captured by the United States boats guarding the river, and are now prisoners un- der the guns of the United States steamer Mich- igan, at Black Rock, The English forces, under Col.
