—_—————— down his own midnight dreams and such scenes as his peculiar imagination can picture to him- self—a gift furnished, we believe, to but few mortals. His inglorious career, as revealed in the Bull run letter, settles, we think, the meaning of the handle of LL. D. appended to his name. It re- minds us of the story of the Irishman who had a friend upon whom the title of LL. D. had been conferred by some university. When asked what was the meaning of the LL.D., he re- plied, ina meditative manner, “that he could not exactly tell. I know him well, and am in- timate with him, but the LL. D, bates me.” After a little study he added, “there must be a mistake in placing the letters; it should be L. D.1L., which means liar, damn liar—for such he is.” A Contrast Berw ue NORTHERN AND Sovrnern Banxs—The Charleston, Richmond, and other Southern papers assail the banks of the Confederate States because they will not Jend money to their bogus government to car- ry on the war against the Union. Now, the the reason why the banks of the South will not lend money to their government is very obvi- ‘ous—they have no confidence in its stability, and no good security for the repayment of their loans. The Southern journals are talking of co- ercing the banks, but that would be found im- practicable. How different the course of the Northern banks! The bankers of Boston, New York and Philadelphia have pledged themselves to the government fora loan amounting to $150,000,000. Why do they loan so large a sum to the government? Is it because they are more patriotic than the Southern bankers? Not at all, The reason is that they have full faith in the permanence of the Union and in the over- throw of the rebellion. Hence they are not afraid to give credit to a government whose se- curities are as good as gold and at no distant day will be above par. Mancracrorine ATremprs IN THE REBEL Srares.—We have received sundry circulars from the Confederate States, representing in the most glowing colors the “unexampled pros- perity” of certain manufacturing companies, which have been recently established, in Geor- gia, and elsewhere. “The healthy condition of affairs” (a stereotyped phrase by the way with shaky concerns) is enlarged upon, in connec- tion with lists of figures in which the assets are put down as tremendous and the indebtedness as considerably less than nothing. How ridicu- lous! What absurd bosh and buncombe! Every child knows that niggers are wholly incapable of working in factories, and that there is no sur- plus white population whatever, fitted for such work. If the works of Manchester, Lowell, Bir- mingham and Sheffield could all be transferred into South Carolina, Alabama or Louisiana to- morrow, they would be useless because they neither have, nor can obtain, any efficient opera- tives. They have forced every able bodied, in- telligent Southern man into the army, and Northern folks have either been tarred and feathered, hung or driven away. Mission or Boston Financiers to Was#inc- rox.—A committee has recently left the capital of the Bay State for Washington, which has pro- mised to give a certain modicum of money to the government, to carry on the war, provided seve- ral of the Cabinet members are dismissed. How ridiculously absurd! Only citizens of an avow- edly abolition city could dream of endeavoring to embarrass the administration, by hampering it with burthens it neither can nor will submit to. It must be the judge of its own acts. New York capitalists have had the good sense to give their wealth and to pledge their prosperity, without proffering any other request than that the money they advanced shall be efficiently em- ployed to carry on the war with activity, and put an end to rebellion in the most prompt man- ner possible. This is as it should be. We re- pudiate the narrow mindedness of the small po- tato bankers of Massachusetts. Homicide at White Plains, A KEEPER SHOOTS A PRISONER, KILLING HIM IN- STANTLY.—THE DECEASED BRIBED BY TWO HIGH- WAYMEN TO OBTAIN THE JAIL KEYS.—THE KEEPER ACQUITTED, ETC. ‘The quiet village of White Plains, Westchester county ‘was on Friday morning startled by the announcement that the turnkey of the county jail had shot a prisoner amed Harrison Daniels, killing him instantly. ‘The circumstances of the affair are as follows:—The de- ceased was sentenced to six months’ incarceration in the county jail for assault and battery, and had served nearly all of his term. Ho was allowed the privilege of going outside of the jail yard, but was ordered to kcep within the bounds known as the “limits.” On Wednesday he ‘went outside of the prescribed lines, and it coming to the knowledge of his keeper, the next day he determined to Jock him up for the remainder of his unexpired term, Accordingly, when Daniels came in on Thursday after- noon, the turnkey, Mr. Stephen Crawford, ordered him to his ceil. Daniols went along the corridor until ho nearly reached his cell, when, with a tremenduous spring, he clutched Mr. Crawford, first by the hair of the head and ‘then in his side. So sudden was the movement, and such the strength of ‘the assailant, that Mr. Crawford was immediately floored, and was completely at the mercy of the ruflian. Finding that bis cries brought no help, and that Da- nicls was about to carry out his threat to take his life Mr. Crawford drew a pistol and told Daniels that if ho did not release him he would shoot him. He, however, would ct lot go, and endeayorod to get at the throat ‘of the eper. Feeling there was no hope for bis release but in wound- ing his assailant, Mr. Crawford fired his pistol, but from his prostrate position he could not take any ‘aim, but the ball took effect in the heart of Daniels, and, with one piercing shrick, he released his hold, rolled’ over, and ‘was a lifeless corpec. Mr. Crawford ocr went to the Sheriff, Mr. William apy the rave himself up, and he’ was Sar y nigh until the Coroner’s inquest could be Karly fie paehier the Coroner summoned a fury, and several of the prisoners testifled that two of thelr hum- ‘ber, who were confined in tho jail, had offered Daniels $300 to obtain the keys, and that if he would get them they would release ail who wanted to go. ‘As far as the shooting of Daniels was’ concerned, thoy all testified that Mr. Crawford acted only in self defence. He stated that he did not intend killing Daniela, but from lis position aod the aggravating circumstances of the case, he was obliged to fire at the deceased prisoner. ‘The Coroner's jury Dbrough t in a verdict entirely ac- quitting Mr Crawford. as since left White Plains as mae Daniels’ friends have threatened to deal harshly with him.

A COLONE! OF THE VOLUNTEERS 1x TRovBLE.—John W. Lat” on, Colonel of a volunteer regiment now organizing in this city, was taken into custody yesterday by ‘officer Cummings of the Lower Police Court, on charge of false pretences preferred against him by Mr, Joseph A. Bonnell, ‘of No. 12 Cortlandt street.

PRESENTATION TO COLONEL M'REYNOLDS OF A WAR HORSE, BY RICHARD BUSTEED, ETC After various delays the Lincoln Cavalry, to the number of about one thousand men, got away yesterday after” noon, en roule for Washington , at which place they are to hold themselves in readiness to take a prominent part in the bloody conflict about to be imaugurated for the sal” vation of the Un’on, and the perpetuation of those princi- ples of liberty handed down to us by our forefathers. ‘This regimont—composed of Americans, Irishmen and Germans—is one of the finest that has left this city yet. The men composing the regiment want to fight for the ‘Union, the whole Uunion, and nothing but the Union;’ and with such amotive and sucha noble fleld before them, they cannot fail to make stern resistance to rebellious sub” jects, and fight till they expend the last drop of their blood for the restoration of that prosperity and happi- ness which have already been partially destroyed, and which can only bo regained by bringing back those to fealty who have made the rash attempt of subverting the lawful government, and tried to separate from the parent branch, About twelve o'clock the regiment arrived in Four- teenth street, and having been drawn up in front of the Academy ot Mi ex-Corporation Counsel Busteed, in behalf of a few friends of the regiment, proceeded to nt Colonel McReynolds with a splended dapple gray € arger, Adjutant Battersby having drawn up the regiment in proper form, Mr. Busteod proceeded to present the animal to the Colonel in a short and appropriate speech. Mr. Busteed (addressing the Colonel) said he had the happiness of being the medium of presenting to him, in behalf of his friends in New York, and for his use in the war, the charger on his left. Tt was presented to him in considera- tion of his character as a gentleman, as well as of his quali- ties as asoldier. In making this present they were not unmindful of Colonel McReynolds’ former services to the country. In the Mexican war he had been one of the first in the fleld, and retired wounded and with honors, and raised again he was ready for action, Although a citizen of the United States only by adoption, his desire for the welfare of the country a second time, impelled him to hazard the daugers of war, that its government might be upheld, The speaker regarded the present time as one of the very deepest interest. ‘There never was atime when the country more needed high-toned and courageous men than now. To be one of the soldiers whom the exigency needed, the Colonel had given up his government pension to r ter the field of glorious activity. He (Mr B.) would not transgress the propriety of the occasion by referring to politics. All parties were now submerged in a willing and un faltering devotion to the country. (Applause) It was a great mistake to suppose that the war now on foot was one of malice. It was an effort to uphold the constitution by men irrespective of party, against an intestine foe. After deciding our capacity to take care of the consti tution, then we could settle the questions of difference incidental to politics. He was not speaking this only for the friends of the Colonel, but, he believed, in saying 80 he spoke the sentiments of all patriots. (Applauso.) He hoped the Colonel would return from this war with more glorious results than he had from the Mexican war. The Lisi (turning to Lol understood their commander— ‘applause)—they knew he would lead them on to victory, papaianee ) ‘They knew his past history, and were will ing to serve with zeal under such a commander, (Ap- plause.) Mr. Bustecd closed by saying that he had no teubt both they and their comm * would give a good account of themselves, to the satisfaction of the earnest desires and hopes of their friends. (Applause.) Three cheers for the Colonel were called for from the ranks, and given with much heartiness by the men. The Colonel then mounted the horse in waiting, uncovered, and replied to Mr. Busteed, that he should do injustice to his own feelings if he taiied to respond to his expression He appreciated to the fullest extent the present. In gard tothe allusions to his services already rendered in the field, ho could only say he had done what a citizen in the position which he dccupied should do (applause) ; he derendea the Stars and Stripes—the emblom of our country’s brightness and glory. — Al though not a citizen of New York, he was in- debted to New Yorkers for much favor. He was from Michigan—an adopted citizen of that State, He thanked the police and the press of this city for their many acts of kindness to him and his regiment, who were goii g to the fleld not as partisans, but to fight the battles of the coun- try. They went to the Scath to fight for the South—to fight for ‘fy loyal citizens, to secure to them peace at home, and the benefits of the government of their and of our father: Applause.) He trusted that when the citi- zens of New York heard from the Lincoln Cavalry on the ticld it would be to the glory of the regiment. (Applaure.) dn conclusion he returned his thanks to the donors for tho present made him. ‘Tho charger is named Lightfoot. Its color is dappled gray. It is a Virginia bred animal, very docile, yet ac tive. Mr. Disbrow formerly owned it, but some time ago he sold jt to a Mr. Merrill, from whom it was purchased for presentation to Coloncl McReynolds, at the price of $500. The Colonel was a Major in the Mexican war, was wounded in his bridle arm, so that he can only raise it 2 short distance, and therefore he requires a charger hocan easily guide. His friends have suited him perfectly in this respect. Lightfoot is trained to fire and music. After the presentation the officers took thoir respective positions, and then the regiment, a-section of police, headed by Shelton’s band cf sixteen pieces, at half past one o'clock marched off throngh Union square to Broad way, and thence down to pier No. 1 North river, where they embarked for Elizabcthport, their destination being Washington via Harrisburg. The regiment numbered about seven hundred men One of the German companies wore green sprigs on the front of their caps, and another had gray blankets rolled up and slung over the right shoulder and under the left arm. It was expected that Mrs. Lincoln would have been present and presented the regiment with a stand of colors, but that jaty did not leave her seclusion at Long Branch for that purpose, although the Colonel had inti- mation that she would mak: entation in person. About half-past three o’ciook the regiment arrived at pier No.1 North river, where one of the Camden and ‘Amboy boats was ready to take them aboard. Although Broadway was not so crowded as on previous occasions, still the enthusiasm of the people was,as warm and gonial as ever, and cheer followed cheer as the men passed along. About five o'clock the steamboat left the pier with the Lincoln alry aboard, amidst choers from a number of people. The following is a list of the officers, so far as they have been appointed:— Colonel—Andrew J. McReynolds. Lieutenant Colonel—Count Moltki. Adjutant—Jason Battersby Chaplain—Rey. Dr. Chas. Reighley (Episcopalian). Surgeon—C. Elliott. Company Captaine—Ogle, Hawkins, Todd, Sternes, Ben. nott, Stosch, Houround and Shackelford, The regiment will not be in a proper state of organiza tion until they reach Washington and get their horses, &c THE FIRST REGIMENT UNITED STATES CHAS- SEURS. This regiment is under orders and will march to day for Washington. It has upon its rolls more than men enough to compose a regiment of the minimum grade, many of its companies numbering their full maximum, 80 that although it leaves with nine numbered companies, these contain men more than sufficient to organize ten companies at the minimum limit. The object undoubt. edly is to incite, by the desire of position, officers, the accomplishment of whose wishes is probably thus made to depend on their success in recruiting men. The regi- ment has been now for nearly a week in Camp Tonip- kins, at Willett’s Point, where it has undergono the inexorable drill of Lieutenant Colonel Shaler. It has been remarked by officers of the regular army that their camp exceeds in military order, organization and oleanli- ness, any camp of volunteers they have ever seen. A steamboat chartered by the United States Assistant Quar- termaster will transport the regiment to-day from their camp to Amboy, whence it will disembark for Washington: Ita camp and garrison equipage, the baggage and all ite attendant appointments, will be transported with it. The boat will arrive at about two o'clock, land the troops at the foot of East Fourteenth street, from which point they will move to Broadway, and down Broadway to pier No. 1 North river, where the boat again meeting them, they will re-embark for Amboy. This regiment has been organizing about two months. Colonel John Cochrane commenced just as the excitement which filled the earlier regiments was subsiding, and when all the usual impediments to recruiting under ordinary circum- stances began toreappear. He persisted, however, and collecting into his regiment the best military material unemployed, he has organized a regiment which com- pares favorably with any heretofore organized. It is noteworthy also that Colonel Cochrane's regiment has not been the favored object of any public assistance. The United States government having authorized men to raise it, furnished the requisite rations, clothing, arms and equipments. But for those innumerable expenses attendant upon recruiting and collect- ing from points perhaps five hundred miles apart, @ thousand men, he has been cast, wo understand, entirely upon his own resources, It may, therefose, be inferred that his regiment, as it has not been, will not be a burden upon the taxed citizens of New York. The short time, too, within which the regiment has been prepared, is commendable. When it did snot number a single man, other regiments which haye ‘but just left—such as the Brooklyn Phalanx and the Anderson Zouaves—were nearly complete. No doubt that insuper* able obstacles opposed the more rapid progress of thes excellent regiments; still, the early completion of the United States Chasseurs is the no less laudable. The regimental headquarters in this city will still be held as a _Tecruiting station, from which the men enrolled and mus- tered into service will be immediately sent, when re. ceived, forward to Washington, uniformed and equipped. WASHINGTON GREYS. As this regiment leaves for Washington on Saturday, there remains but little time to enable young men to join the regiment, Company F ia busily recruiting at No. 6 \ds street.

It will be remembered that when I commenced the for- mation of my regiment I advertised for gentlemen offi- cors, determining to make my regiment a moral one. I was careful in my selections, but did not judge rightly in ai cases; I got men whom I found I could not retain in my organization, and when the time came to prune and weed I did so. Your notice in this morning's Heratn is not of my officers, but the voice of some men discharged from tho regiment, others under arrest. The character of one may be found in the Police Gazette of July 6. I re- gret to trouble you, but in justice to myself and’ command Tam compelled to reply. There is not an imagit crime which I am not charged with. But I can to be generous to all my enemies. Knowing myself to be @ man of truth, I court inquiry of all my deeds from boyhood, and defy the world to prove a charge unbecoming a man of honor, truth and justice. There is no man who has tried harder to get up a good and true regiment than I, and I now have trampled down all opposition, without the aid of six hundred dol- lars from ail the earth. Notwithstand ing the false reports, my regiment is not yet broken up, nor shall it be, as long ag I have one true man to stand by me. Iam ready to shoulder my musket and go where duty calls.

It gives us pleasure to state that a number of the flour merchants of the city, desirous of assisting in the phi- lanthropic efforts now being made to supply the wants of the families of the volunteer soldiers, contributed two hundred and fifty barrels of flour, which was put intoa common stock, with the understanding that it would be distributed under the direction of the Union Defence Committee, For a number of days past persons have been engaged in preparing two thousand bags for the convenient distribution of the flour to the needy applicants, fifteen hundred of which will be given away in New York,and tho remaining five hundred in Brooklyn. At noon yesterday ten two horao wagons, decorated with American flags, proceeded to the old Corn Exchange, corner of Broad and South streets, and loaded with one hundred and fifty bags of flour each, the bags being stamped with the Starsand Stripes and the appro- priate motto, ‘God bless our volunteers.” The novel procession then marched up Broadway to Fighth street. and those who understood the nature of the philanthro- pic undertaking in which the carmen—who had volun- tered their services—were engaged, gave vent to their approbation in loud demonstrations of applause. The flour was deposited in the Cooper Institute, where, as has already been remarked, the Union Defence Committee will distribute it to those who have claims upon a share in this timely donation of the flour merchants. While we are recording this munificent act on the part of the provision dealers, wo suggest to the Union Defence Committee the pee of providing for the necessities of the families of our volunteers during the approaching fall and winter, by making large purchases of corn and potatoes, and other equally indispensable articles of food, which most be supplied from some source to the thou: sands who will have to depend upon the charities of the benevolent for the necesgaries of life. As the care of the wives and children of our citizens who eae enlisted for the preservation of the government, malerially depends upon the Union Defence Committee, those gentlemen could not do better than to lay in larg Ss S “eupplies of potatoes and corn to supply wants of the thousands of hungry stomachs that it wilt be their province to fill: At the present time potatoes can be pur- chased in the interior of the State for a mere Dagatebon from three to six cents per bushel; corn can be had for six cents a bushel, ie the supply, and butter could be pu quantities at tho rato of six cents per pound, rie 0 the wise ia auficiant. MORE STATE PRISONERS. HIGHLY IMPORTANT ARRESTS IN PHILA. DELPHIA. OUR PHILADELPHIA CORRESPONDENCE. Pmiape.rara, August 26, 1861. A Nephew of General Johnston's and a Virginia Armorer Detected—Ingenious Contrivances—The Mysterious Tele’ graph Cable Explained—Furmidable Munitions of War About Being Put to Use Upon the Blockading Squadron— Further Hearing of Samuel Eaken, dc. ‘The case of Samuel Eaken, of whom a partial account has been given in your columns, came up to-day before the United States Commissioner. A great number of wit- nesses, chiefly mechanics and inventors, were sworn, and their testimonies agree in stating that Faken is a most dangerous person, of great ingenuity, experience and travel, whose abilities might became very detrimental to the cause of the Union, if they have not already so proved. themselves. Marshal Millward started for Fort Lafayette with this man on Saturday night, but new and important evidence being at that time adduced, he was held over for a further hearing to-day. In the mean. time his dwelling, in Palmer street, Kensington, wag searched, and some curious belligerant contrivances brought to light; among them about 8,000 feet of ex- tremely minuto insulated telegraph wire, of the thickness of thread, wrapped in silk, and adapted to forming con. nection with any ordinary wire, The color of the thread was green, and in some respects, it was similar to the fragments of cable picked up near Fortress Monroe. At a distance of ten yards this wire was invisible, and it could bo trailed through grass and herbage, oyer any extent of country, without detection. Tho object of this wire was, doubtless, to lead off messages from the government lines, and put the rebels into possession of every important movement. Eaken insisted that it was an improved wire for insulating magnets; but well informed witnesse disagreed with him. A percussion was likewise di covered, that would ignite cannon cartridges through’ the thick metallic coverings, and thus avoid the necessity for tearing off the envelope. The model of a ‘cannon, likewise, camo to light, that the inventor supposes capable of splitting a seventy-four frigate in half at a distance of three miles. A miniature torpedo for submarine purposes, consisting essentially of a gutta percha bay and tube was discovered, and this, from the prisoner's Own admission, was to be employed in blowing up war vessels. Among the pri- soner’s private papers we may enumerate a railroad pass, directing the various Southern railways to pass the bearer to any point in the confederacy and charge his expenses to the Davis government; a letter from the Tirector of the Richmond armory, containing grave matters not yet made public; and one from George B. Sloat, the pree nature of which is not yet jained, which the prisoner was detected chewing to pieces, He succeeded in swallowing half tho missive. More than $1,000 in gold was likewise taken from his effects. The hearing to-day disclosed a strange and smart his y,which made much sympathy for Eaken, in spite of formidable accusations against him, He is a native of Massachusetts, and was educated in Philadelphia, manifesting from th’ beginning a wondorful aptitude for mechanics, Among his early applications was that of a sewing machine, and Sloat & Co. employ him to improve sewing machine needles, for which they dd the patent and emoluments. Ho afterwards went to the Crimea, in the employ of the Russian govern- ment, and managed for some time the application of in- fernal machines of his own contrivance, yery nearly biowing up a number of war vessels, and afterwards the to raiso the subm docks at Sebastopol." Thence he led a life, endeavoring without success to press inventions upon most of the European govern- ments, and, returning home, engaged in the business of electrotyping for Pailey & Kitchen, jewellers. When the great tunnels on the Reading Railroad were about being extended, Eaken applied galvanism to blowing the solid rock, and thus completed the work in unexampled time by one hundred and fifty discharges and upwards .

Tho funds in his pos. session attest how well he was rewarded, He remained in Richmond three weeks, systematized the business of the Armory at that place (a time table of which was found in his trunk), ahd returned to Philadelphia a few weeks ago to buy material and got a force of mechanics. His behavior in town—considering the circumstances— was childlike; for he made no sceret of his intentions, and seemed indifferent to the aims and ends of the belii- gerents, so his own mechanism was put to use and re- warded.

Sharkey heard of him in this manner and entrapped him by a decry letter, At tho hearing most of the inventors in the city attended, and they bore unanimous testimony to his fertillty and Skill. In appearance Esken isa very remarkable individual, having a most capacious head with a great forehead, full of black hair, a littie gray, and strongly marked features, half enveloped in beard, Ho has the keenest of medita tive eyes that look thorugh spectacles, and his manners are those of a gentleman, apparently unconscious of hay- ing committed fault, He was taken to Fort Lafayette at two o'clock, in company with a German named David Ryno, who North to purchase iron for bridge build- ing in North Carolina.

Johnston, a nephew of the rebel Major Gene- ral, was arrested at the Pittsburg depot, in Philadelphia, on Sunday night, by two detective officers. Ho was at the battle of Manassas, under General Beauregard, who deallded to release him at the intercession of his grand- Henry D. Gilpin, but he was afterwards. re- by General Lee. Young Johnston held a Lieute- nant’s commission in the Confederate service, and his anxiety to serve his Southern friends seems to have equalled his affection for his own relations, Ho deter- mined to go back to the army, and took away a trunk weighing two hundred and fifty pounds, containing maps of our forts and of the seat of war, letters not yet dirceted, but full of treasonable correspondence, and suill 5 ¥ matter to place him for a term of service in ette. He is a favorite and probable heir of Mrs. Gilpin, the widow of a former lawyer of Philadelphia. Young Johnston is now in Moyamensing jail. SHORT MOGRAPHY OF AN ALLEGED TRAITOR, Captain Robert Tansill, who resigned bis commission as Captain of Marines when the frigate Congress reached Boston on Saturday, was a farm boy, and born in Prince H , Va, near Manassas, and almost in sight ashing ran away from home at of seventecn and enlisted for five years in the service. His bravery and attention ‘to du ed him toa sergeanty, the highest non-commissioned rank, He made na emies among the commissioned officers from the beginning, and’ was once d to be tied up and flogged swore to shoot down any man who laid hands upon him, This gallant conduct saved him for the time. When the five years had expired Commander Bal'ard persuaded him to re-enlist, under promise of a commis- sion. He according y reevived a second lieutenantcy about 1826, when on the ship North Carolina, off Hampton Roads, at which the indignation of the other commis. sioned officers was great. He fought his way through all obstacles, however, and acted as Commander of Marines in the Mosquito squadron, under Lieutenant McLaughlin, during the Seminole war. McLaughlin took occasion to flog one of Tansill’s marines to death one day, and the latter exposed him in the St. Augustine ’(Fla.), News for which ho was court-martialed, © and’ found guilty of ‘prevarication” in denying’ his signature. For this he was suspended for three years on half pa; during which time he taught a nayal school near Wash? ington and married Miss Weems, the dai g'iter of a Mctho- dist preacher. He was reinstated duiing Tyler’s ad- ministration and made first lieutenant. In the Mexican war he was breveted captain for a gallant defence of Guaymas, on the Pacific coast. Ho went to Paraguay as commander of marines amid much opposition, but al- ways behaved with marked courage and forosight—owing everything to the government that raised him froma common soldier, to desert it when imperiiled and me- naced. is now in the neighborhood of fifty years of age, having been the recipient of federal bounty for about thirty years. His friends had every confidence in his loyalty, but his resignation sets that matter forever at rest, and he has gone to Fort Hamilton, where he will at least be unable to auccor the rebellion. REMOVED TO FORT LAFAYETTE. Daniel C. Lowber, of New Orleans, who stands charged with being a besrer’ of despatches from England to Jeff. Davis, was removed yesterday from the Detective’s of- fice to Fort Lafayette. The change was made at the in- stance of the authorities at Washington, who regard the prisoner as a person of some importance. Lowber has relations in this city, among whom is Captain Alexander H. Shuitz, late candidate for the office of United States Marshal. A number of his friends were on hand to see him off and comfort him on his dreary journey. Supor- intendent Kennedy accompanied the accused to the fort. The prisoner felt’ independent about the matter, and seemed quite careless about the uncertainty of his fate. ANOTHER STATE PRISONER SENT TO FORT LAFAYETTE. Yesterday morning the United States Marshal for the District of Rhode Island arrived here, having in his custo” dy, as a prisoner of State, William M. Fike, said to belong tothe State of Louisiana, who is charged with uttering seditious and treasonable sentiments while eRe the society of the fashionable hotels at Newport The gentleman from Louisiana was promptly Nlboratehed to the retirement of Fort Lafayette, in accordance with or- ders from the Secretary of State at Washington. ae THE FEMALE SPIES IN WASHINGTON. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Avavst 26, 1861. In the Herarn of to-day notice is taken of a female spy of the name of Greenough. This is an error. No one bearing that name has ever yet proved recreant to out glorious Union, nor has it ever been tarnished with an act disloyal to the ‘country. The lady referred to is probably Mrs. Robert Greenhow, widow of the late translator of the State Department. ' Will you be kind enough to cor- rect the error, and thus free from obloquy the name of ee GREENOUGH. __| THE NAVAL AND WAR CONTRACTS. ‘The committee appointed by the Speaker at the late extra session of Congress to investigate the contracts en- tered into by the Secretaries of the Navy and War De- partments, commenced their session at tho St. Nicholas Hotel yesterday afternoon.

Allow me to suggest, through your widely circulated Paper, a mode of soon filling up our army, Lot the go- vernment advance a month’s wages, or say twenty dol. lars, so that a man when he enlists can leave something home for his family, and Tam sure ina very. short time more men—good mon, not boys—will enlist than are required, The government cannot expect men to fight the country’s battles and lot their families starve.

The object of the meeting having been stated, it was resolved that a committee of ten be appointed, consisting of one from cach company, to inquire why the Twelfth received less for their services than other regiments. The committee was appointed accordingly, Drum Major Smith being olected their chairman, and they are now engaged in col lating facts and figures to prove that there are considerable moneys due to the members of the Twelfth regiment, which they mean to pallies ¢.
