AMUSEMENTS ON THE VOYAGB, ‘It may be imagined that five hundred New York boys ‘would not be collected on one ship without having some sport on the tapis, The resources for amusement were un- Mmited, and the knots of jollo companies collected im all parts of the ship presented a most picturesque scene. Whist, euchre, draughts, chess and smoking were the most popular, In the afternoon, when the sky was clear, with an awning stretched over the quarter deck and a cool breeze, the enjoyment was such as to satisfy the mout fastidious. The mattresses were scattered on the deck, and the men lounged about in the height of luxury. Occasionally, by way of variety, some of the beds and pillows would be sent flying about briskly, to the no little annoyance of the more quiet. ‘The utmost Laplace of course prevailed, for each knew that if he exhibited the slightest ion to be croes he would soon get the worst of it. trious took ad’ the leisure to clean up their scalnpeant, ro ne ee to | ne opportunity .

On Wednesday evening the proceedings were varied by the summary court martial of one of the drummers, who was arrested and taken before @ self constituted court martial, charged with a most heinous offence. A mock judge spd jory were chosen, and one of the guard was selected to act as public prosecutor, while Mayor Mayo, of Ricnmond. paturedly consented to defena’ the accused. ‘Evidence was not wanting cn both sides, and what with badgering the wit- nesser, abusing the coart, technicalobjections, law points, conteis between counsel, and the mock verdict, the scexe was mueh like some of the real trials which tare place in real courts in New York, with the exception, perbape, that it was conducted with much more aniliiy. AGROUND AGAIN. At half-past eleven on Wednesday evening al! hands were astcnished to find that the ship had been brought to anchor in the Potomac, the pilot alleging that the channel was too marrow to proceed in the night.

The romantic adventures of the gallant Captaia Henri Guillaume Arnoux de Riviere still continue to form tho staple of the town talk. Every day new developoments aro coming to light that give interest to this most oxtraor. dinary caso, and no doubt but that the public will soon have all the facts, and will be enabled to form apretty ac curate opinion as to the claims of the gallant Captain to public sympathy and support. The Hotel Napoleon has all at once got to bea very famous place, and the Captain holds court to a large circle of friends who call on him there daily. Some of these visiters are agreeable people enough, but the prosenter of the following bill could not be considered by the Captain in that category :— By D., Wednesday, July 7, 1857. Capt.

This interesting document emanated from tho office of Eveleth & Bissell, attorneys, No. 60 Wallstreet. Tne Captain, however, was engaged when tho bill was pre sented, and could not see the party who brought it. With regard to the history of this bill, it is stated that when de Riviere arrived in this country in February, 1867, be put up at the Wall House, in Williamsburg, to which place be was recommended by the surgeon of tho vessel in which he came over, and who was av acjuatnt ance of Mr. Goodvow, the proprietor of the house. In company with the Captain was a young lady, whom he called his wife, and who shared his bed and Mr. Good now’s bosrd. While residing here a story got around thet the young woman was not his wife, whereupon the gallant Captain expressed a strong desiro to alit the cars of the calummistor of the partver of his besam. To put an end, however, to the scandal, he was finally persuaded to have a marriage performed, and of whicd the particulars have already been published. On his ¢eperture from Williamsburg, on the 7th of July, 1857, de Riviere gave Mr. Goodnow 6 draft on # hoase in London for the amount of his bill.
