Brigadier General Faward Richard Sprigg Canby was ‘orn in the State of Kentucky about the year 1819, and after receiving a liberal education was admitted into the Miliary Academy at West Point asacadet during the year 1836. He graduated on the 30th of June, 1889, in ‘the same class as the General-in-Chief (General Halleck); ihe late General Isaac Stevens, who was killed at Chan- Ailly, September 1, 1862; General Ricketts, of Bull run fame; General Ord, now commanding the Thirteenth Ar- My corps; General F. Paine, of Mlinois, and others, Ho @id not stand bigh in grade in his clase, but, as it has Been evidenced in the case of many general officers of the present war, this is not always to be considered as a vest ‘Of want of merit. He entered the United States regular army with the full rauk of second lieutenant of infantry on the Ist of July, 1839, and was attached to the Second regiment. ‘He was appointed assistant commissary of subsistence during the following October. On the 18th of June, 1846, he was promoted to a first lieutenancy, having been ap- Pointed adjutant of his regiment during the previous ‘March, and served in General Riley’s regiment in the Mexican war. in that regiment we also find the names Of the following noted officers of the present war: General Heintzelman, then captain; Major General Casey, ‘then captain; Brigadier General Wessels, then captain; Brigadier General Patrick, then captain; Brigadier Gene val Lyon, killed im Missouri, August 10, 1861, then tirst Jieutenant; Brigadier General F, Steele, commanding a @ivision under General Grant, then second lienten ant, and others. On the 3d of March, 1847, he Was appointed assistant adjutant general on Ceveral Riley's etal, with the rank of captain. During t Dattle of Cerro Gordo he was greatly distinguis! and for his gallant conduct during the battles of Contreras and Cherubusco he was breveted major. This brevet was awarded during August, 1849, aud bears the date of August 20, 1847. His conduct during the attack upon the De Belen Gate is highly spoken of by uperior officers, and during the executive session of March, 1851, he was awarded the brevet of lieutenant colonel to date from Beptember 13, 1847. He was promoted ty the full rank Of captain of the Second infantry during June, 1851; but part Liew having been appointe ment as aseistant to the Adjutant General's d jutant yeveral, with rank o tenant colonel, he relinquished his rank in the li the third of March, 1865, he was appointed major ‘Bens United states infantry, a new ized under section 8, chapter 169 mminand of F is control po Territory, baving under ood dragoons. Seventh and Tenth United States infantry reg ments. fie held this post until 1860. when he was up poate commander of the Navajo expedition against the jans, and held commaud of the cam) near Fort Deti- ance, New Mexico, at the beginniug of 1861. His second fo commant, Rrevet Major Sibley, turned traitor and join ed the rebeis during the early stages of the rebellion, and although occupying a post of great dauger in their midst, Brevet Lieutenant Colonel Canby refused two join their Panks, nor would he leave his post aud go Nortti, When the regular army was increased under the Proclamation of President Lineotn, the subject of our sketch was promoted to the commund of the Nineteenth regiment of United states infantry, ‘with rank and commission from May 14, 1861. He was thea placed in command of the military district or sub- Department of New Mexico. A+ an instance of his deter. mination of character, it may be remembered that during the administration of this department be suspended the habeas corpus throughout New Mexteo, and ar Pelham, formerly Surveyor General of that Territory, and Colonel Clements, and contined them fo the guard of Santa Fe, for giving treasonable in formation to the rebel Texans at Fort Bliss: and on ‘General Pelham refusing to take the oath of allegiance he ‘was held in darance.

DEPARTURE OF THE FIFTY-POURTH REGIMENT NEW YORK NATIONAL GUARD AND THIRTEENTH VOLUN- TEER HEAVY ARTILLERY FOR NEW YORK, {From the Rochester Union, July 16.} e About nine o’clock last evening Brigadier General Wil- liams received a despatch from Inspector General Miller, stating that his command would _be ordered forward at once. Colonel Marshall, of the Thirteenth heavy artil- lery, which pumbers some three hundred men in camp ‘on Lake avenue, also received like orders. Subsequently General Williams received another despatch ordering the soldiers to leave on the half past twelve train this morn- ing. ‘The prearranged signal on the City Hall for the men to assembie at the armory was struck, and at once there was “‘burrying to and fro” of armed men through the streets. Everything was ready but transportation, and the men chafed somewhat at the delay. About eleven o’clock @ despatch was received from Superintendent Vib- bard, of the Central road, saying that cars for the regi- ments could not be furnished before this morning, and ordering the train carrying the soldiers to follow the 7:25 express train. ‘At six o’clock the cars were ready , and at seven o'clock Colonel Marsball’s regiment, with about two hundred men in line, was at the depot. It was nearly nine o’clock before the Fifty-fourth regiment made its appearance at the depot, when the cars were speedily filled and the train started. ‘The Fifty-fourth numbered four hundred, and with the heavy artillery made a force of six hundred men, who have left for New York. Colonel Marshall’s men are without arms. They will be supplied with them at New York. The Grays (artillery), attached to the Fifty-fourth, did not take their guns. ‘They will be furnished with a battery in New York. This company had, prior to tho riot in the metropolis, been ordered there to garrison the forts. The company has been recruited nearly to the maximum number, going off this morning with one hun- dred men. Colonel Clark is in command of the Fifty- fourth, aud General Williatns accompanies them to New ‘York. As the regiments passed through Exchange and Stave streets to the depot this morn- ing they presented a fine appearance, aud they will doubt- less give a good account of themselves if called upon to quell the mob. The Thirteenth heavy artillery is mainly composed of old members of the Thirteenth New York Volunteers, who were engaged in every battle in Vir- ginia since the rebellion commenced up to Burnside’s massacre at Fredericksburg. The New York mob will find them ugly cusiomers to deal with. We give below a list of the commissioned officers and the number of men in each company in the Fifty-fourth regiment :— Regimentat Officers—Colonel, C. H. Clark; Lieutenant Colonel, Fred. Miller; Major, Nathaniel ‘thompson; Adju- tant, G. 8. Stebbins; Quartermaster, M. C. Mordoff; Sur- geon, Dr. Wm. H. Briggs. Union Grays—Captain, W. M.

J notice by an article in your edition of this date that a company of elghty men, under Capt. Bagley, had arrived in this city, to protect the armory of the Sixty-ninth regi- ment, at the corner of Essex and Grand streets, over she Essex market. I have made inquiries, and cannot ascer- tain that Capt. Bagley and men have arrived, as above stated. I have not heard of any person threatening or making any attack on the said Armory, or any disturbance whatever in ‘the vicinity of the said armory, since the evenmg of the 14th instant, when a large number of riot- ous men and boys came {rom the fire of Capt. Dutfy’s house, on Grand street; the party came through Grand street to corner of Ludlow street, and threatened to burn the station house of the ‘Tenth precinct, which 1% in the game building with said armory. I was at the station house at the time stones aud other missiles were thrown at the doors and wintows of the station house. I left the station house and cailed on Mr. Andrew Mulligan, of No. 76 Essex street, stated to him the circumstances, and re- quested him to go to the crowd of rioters and endeavor to get them to desist. Mr. Mulligan said it was a risky mat ter, but that he would attempt it, Mr. Mulligan went boldly forward and requested the party to leave, and through his persuasion they did leave the front o¢ the station house and streets adjacent thereto. Mr. Mulligan informs me that he has consulted with several of the old members of the Sixty ninth regiment now in the c and if apy authorized person will call them togeth for the purpose of protecting the armory, or protecting any property or persons in this county, at any time, lwillingly respond.

Besides this the Ordnance Department, under Captain Drayton, has furnished large quantities of small arms, ammunition, and those troublesome little affairs kiowp as “hand ”» ‘Work goes on as usual at the yard, and the workmen are Joyal and true to their trust. In times like these we can see of how much import- ance a well conducted naval station is to a large city. Admiral Paulding, Commodore Radford, Commander Fillebrunn, Captain Drayton, and in fact all of the officers of the yard, are entitled to the highest credit for their promptitude and efficiency in rendering the State and city authorities so much good service. THE POLICE HEADQUARTERS. The Withdrawal of Troops. The most carnest efforts have been made to effect a withdrawal of the troops from the Eighteenth ward. Senators Bradley and Connolly, being able to effect nothing personally, went to Governor Seymour and begged him to use his efforts to have the troops withdrawn. Mr. Sey- mour, satisfied that it would be a measure of good policy, immediately addressed the following note to beadquar- ters:— pairs Ponce - : —e ope you will comply with the suggestions of Senator Bradley with regard to the Eighteenth ward, Sr. Nicnoias Horsz, July 16, 1863. yMMIBSTONERS RATIO SEYMUUR, Commander.in.Chiet. This missive bad no effect upon the authorities. Mr. Acton declared the Eighteenth ward to be a plague spot; but he had no power whatever over the military. The United States troops were under command of General Canby, and he alone had power to act. Here it is proper to remark—and with full authority—that there is no con- flict between the Governor and the Police Commissioners. They have worked together from the beginning, and Sir. Seymour has in no way sought to intertere with the po lice authorities. The latter say that they consider the Governor entitled to full credit for his conduct during the existing troubles. ‘This explanation is reodered necessary for the reason that certain interested parties have at the headquarters sought to create the impression that Governor Seymour ‘was nearly, if not quite, in command of the people who bave resisted the military. The individuals who make these charges are generally persons who flock to the cen- trai office with large stories, the creations of tbeir own fertile imaginations, who demand extreme measures with- out limit and make fools of themselves generally, It is not known that one of them bas yct been sworn in as a& special policeman, and it is very likely that none of them ever will get in harm's way. MR. ACTON NOTIFIED OF HIS APPROACHING END. President Acton seems to be peculiarly obnoxious to some of the people. ‘the following missive was received yesterday by him:— Commissioner and conspirator against People, prepare to meet your God." By ad dra State and the view of & COMMITTBE. Mr. Acton is not known to have been particulariy af. fected by the reading of his ‘death warrant.” He an ticipates the exercise of the pardoning power. THE PRISONERS CAPTURED. The following Is 2 compicte hist of prisoners captured and now in custody at the central olllce:— Stephen H. Pullen, James Mehan. Michael Barry. James Smith. William Maxwell ‘Terence Connor. John Van Houten, Peter Leonard. John Régnar. Jonn Kerrigan, Owen Malloy. Neil McGorhen. John Fitzsimmons. Hugh Fitzpatrick, ‘Thomas McLaughlin. James Tuite. Thomas Serve. Thos. McGuire. Patrick Tooney. Patrick Hirscnott, Benj. Hannigan. John Riley. William Keegar Phi). Fitzstmmons. James McGovern, Peter Kelly. Edward Luderick. Peter Fitzsimmons. John Hussey. Martin Morand, John Hussey is accused of being a leader of the crowd in the tight corner of Pitt and Delancey streets. The rest are not known, except as belonging to the general mass. No determination has yet been arrived at as to the dis- Position of these prisoners. The police have handed them over to the military autnorities, aud it bow becomes a question whether United States or New York Stato law is to be exercised in their case. It this question is raised, as it probably will be, there 4s likely to be some unfor. tunate trouble about the matter of jurisdiction. THE ORDERS FOR THE DRAFT, Our yeporter at the police headquarters understands that there ig a renewed expression of bitter feeling con- cerning the fresh orders for the draft. There is a large class of citizens who have volunteered their services to the authorities against the crowds who have arisen in op: position to the military, who say that their service 18 ouly intended to be used against thieves. In case the draft 13 Again attempted they will resign. These people are Ubanimous m their desire to have the © mstitutionality of the Conscription act tested — It ix proper to say that some officers of a militia regiment now on duty here take Uhis view ot the case, and they clann to represent the almost unanimous feeling of their command. THE TIME FOR DRAPTING. It is not positivety known at what time the draft will be proceeded with; but from intimations of gentlemen who ought to know, no further steps witl be taken for a week atleast, By that time itt believed the government not less than thirty-itve thousand troops in THE CONFLAGRATIONS. by Fire Marshal Baker Caused by thé Recent 11:05 A.

[From the New Bedford (Mass.) Mercury, July 16.) Before the opening of the Boston mails yesterday morning, @ ramor was circulated through the city that orders had been recetved for the discontinuance of the draft, which would seem to have been veritied by the fact that the Board of Enrolment for this district, shortly after eleven o'clock, announced that further proceedings would be suspended for the present, and that due notice would be given through the papers when they would be resumed. No orders requesting @ suspension of the draft were received atthe Provost Marshal’s office, and the ings were suspended for reasons of an entirely different nature. When the work will be resume! not yet been decided upon, but will be duly announced, The rumor referred to’ probably originated from the fact that Provost Marshal Hatch received an order to dis- continue further notification, and to parule those who should report at his office for examination.

STEAMER SILVER Moon, Ew Rovrs vor Sr. Louus, July 5, 1863. ‘We have had a considerable of a fight at Helena since? Jast wrote you, and as I chanced to be upon the ground, and am now passing up to Cairo with the prisoners cap- tured, you will have all the particulars as early as thé earliest. ‘THE FEDERAL FORCES at Helena, consisting of Western troops, under General B. M. Prentiss, numbered some four thousand, They wera in excellent condition, well drilled, free from) fatigue, and ready for fun, frolic or fight ag ever men were who for several months had been i garrison and unannoyed by enemy. ‘The glorious Fourth was to have been celebrated at Fort Curtis in a civil, but at the same time an imposing: style, Preparations to that end had been made; but scouts sent out on the previous day by General Prentiss’ returned at night on the 3d and brought the intelligence that the advance of what was thought to bea cvnsidor~ able rebel force was known to be within seven or eight; miles of the place, and still marching forward. They un-; doubtedly intended to give us a surprise on the morning of the anniversary of our independence, capture us without a struggle, and then proceed to convert Helena into a second Vicksburg, and blockade the river at this: point, thus temporarily cutting off General Grant’s sup- plies, and using up his line of communication. But Gens Prentiss thought, with his men, that two could play at that game with advantage, and late on the night of Fri- day orders were issued for every man to be prepared to meet the enemy instead of celebrating the great day ag had boen proposed. Yet, as the matter has turned’ outy who can say that the day was not appropriately cele- brated? ‘THE OPENING OF THE FOURTH. General Prentiss as early as two o’clock yesterday morn- ing. ordered tho rifle pits outside the works to be occu- pied by the ritlemen. This was done, The artillery wero then called to the siege guns in all the redoubts of Fort Curtis, the field artillery were drawn out and placed in position, the infantry in live, and all in a forward state of preparation to give the rebels a warm a8 well as a wel- come reception. It was some hours to daylight when the outermost of our pickets were driven in, and reported the rebels coming with great speed, infantry, artillery aud cavalry. General Prentiss received the news with com- posure, and only desired that the rebels should not back: out before he had a chance to pepper them somewhat. THE ATTACK was made by the rebels in the centro, left and right al- most simultaneously at about three o'clock, and i. was ‘an impetuous and partially successful charge. According to the statement ,of the rebel colonel, Lewis, who was among the prisoners taken, Parsons was ordered by Lient Gen. Holmes, in command, to charge the centre, consisting of throe redoubis, near the graveyard in the rear of the town. He did so, and was partially success- ful, He carried two of the redoubts, baving first driven our men out of their rifle pits. These redoubts had three guns. They were for atime silenced by the assaulting party. But Fagan upon the right and maduke, with his cavalry, on the left, failing to mako the connection, Parsons and having themsclves im @ position where they received the enfllading fire from the remaining batteries of the fort, and a well sus- vained cross musket fire, were compelied to sur- render, or see their men cut down by hundreds. Like sensible men, a8 they seemed to be, base rren- dered. The prisoners were quickly marched wo the rear, under the care of a general officer, and at once comme! embarking upon traraperts. Meanwhile ‘THE FIGHT CONTINUED. Parson’s brigade, consisting of White’s régiment, the Seventh, Eighth and Ninth Missouri and Pickett’s Tenth Missouri haviug surrendered, the fight was continued by Holmes, who had left him, Price, in command of only one brigade, and Marmaduke with a division of Missouri and Arkansas troops, Following up the advantage he had gained, Gen. Prentise ordered his entire force to the front, and the cousequence was, that after about three hours’ hard fighting, the rebels were broken up, their men many of them killed and the remainder driven off in disordor, ‘They managed. to take off uearly all their killed and wounded, however. ‘THE FIELD OURS, Refore noon yesterday not a rebel was to be seen in the vicinity that Was not dead, wounded or a prisoner. They had made an impetuous attack, in greatly superior force, upon asmall but not an uuprepared garrison, and had been whipped, driven off, and over seven hundred men and officers made prisoners. Thoir killed and wounded cannot be far from four hundred, though [ am unable to obtain many facts in this direction from tho prisoners upon the boat with me. They are remarkably silent om that subject, though loquacious eaough when it comes to the manner in which they fought. -Having obtained my knowledge of that from other sources, { am not in need of their facts, abd | doubt their being facts. OCR LORR. As I was compelled to eave on the Silver Moon with the prisoners, late in the day, aud the returns not having come 1 at Beadquarters, i am unable to furnish a list of our killed aud wounded; but Iam assured by an officer who has been over the field and among the hospitals, that our loss eaonot be more than one hundred killed, wounded and prisoners, all told, though the rebel oflieert- claim that they carried off an entire reziment of oar men AS none are missing—by regiments—I must put thas down as a canard.
