A REBEL PIRATE AT HAVANA
Last week there was a slight thrill of that
kind of excitement which belonged to the
past months, produced by the intelligence
that the rebel ram Stonewall, last heard from
on the Sp apish Coast, had gone into the har
bor of Havana on the 11th inst, She was
allowed to land and take in coal. Our Con
sul at Havana, after being libfused permission
to send a naval tug boat, despatched the
American steamer Columbia, which was in
the civil service, to Admiral Stribling at Key
West, with notice of the event. The latter
immediately despatched the U. S. frigq . te
Powbatan and the gunboat Aries to Ha
vana, where they arrived on the 13th. - As
they were in the waters of a neutral power,
and the Captain General of Cuba has not
comprehended the expiration of the belliger
ent existence of the C. S. A. nothing could
be done but to work on until the pirate
should leave for the high seas. - On the 13th
the Stonewall was still in port. It is reported
that a demand upon the Cuban authorities
for the surrender of the Stonewall had been.
made by the American Consul, but it was
refused. Three Union steamers were off the
Cuban coast, and it is stated that six moni
tors were on their way therefrom Mobile and
Key West.
THE TRIAL OF THE CONSPIRATORS.
The trial of persons under arraignment be
fore the Military Commission, for participa
tion in the assassination conspiracy, is still
going on. The testimony is voluminous,
and it is yet too early to attempt to give a
summary of it. It was expected that the
examination of witnesses for the prosecution
would have been finished yesterday. An
argument was expected from Reverdy John
son in denial of the legality of the trial, and
it is said that the number of witnesses to be
examined for the defence is immense: There
is therefore no prospect of a very speedy
close of the trial.
ARRIVAL OF JEFFERSON DAVIS ANDI
PARTY AT FORTRESS MONROE.
The Arch Traitor with those captured
along with him, has been very quietly slipped
across across
.the country to Hilton Head,
and from thence, by the steamer Wm. H.
Clyde, under convoy of- the U. S. gunboat
Tuscarora, to Fortress Monroe: It is under
stood in Washington that his trial, with its
events, will take place within that fortress.
The party consists of Davis and his family,
Alex. H. Stephens, C. C. Clay, Col. Win.
Reagan, Gen.- Wheeler the rebel raider, and
some fifteen other rebel' officers. _
ifIPORTANT ARRESTS.—Gov. Brown,. of
Georgia, was arrested on the night of the 9th
ink , at his mansion in Milledg,eville, by
Captain Kneeland and Lieutenant Bayard.
Ile arrived-at Washington on the 18th in
charge of the latter.- A short time before
his arrest he issued his proclamation assem
bling the State Legislature with a view to
resuming the Federal relations: These trai
tors talk this resuming of Federal . rela
tions as though all their vile treason required
DO expiation bilt the simple one of coming
back. We judge they are in the way to take
in a few idetts under •that. head. It; is said
4 , l baLGov. Brown will.be used as a witness, in
TaEn trial of Davis.

expect to be supported in idleness:Rh=
labor for -their own maintenance. It is 'not
surprising, considering all the past, that some
occasion should exist for making such a pro
clamation. We also notice a manifesto issued
by Gen. Howard ;

elsewhere mentioned, whieh-o.....isa.ciAg,tafol

The negro should understand that he is really
free, but on no account, if able to work,
should he harbor the thought that the Gov
ernment will support him in idleness.”
WESTIMONY OF GENERALS MEADE AND
GRANT ON THE CONDUCT OF THE WAR.
The Committe on the Conduct of the War
have thought fit to publish Generals Meade
and Grant's testimony as to the manner Mr.
Stanton has supported them in the campaign
they were engaged in. General Meade says:
"So far as my knowledge extends, and I
have had many relations with the War De
partment, I can say most cheerfully that eve
rything I have required, or that I thought
ought to be done has been promptly attended
to by Mr. Stanton as the head of the War
Department. As to the general management
of the War Depattment, I consider it has
been conducted with great ability." Gen.
Grant says: "-So far as the Secretary and
myself are concerned, he has never interfered
with my duties, never thrown any obstacle in
the way of supplies I have called for. He,
has never dictated a course of campaign to
me, and never inquired what I — was going to
do. He has always seemed satisfied with
what I did, and has heartily cooperated
with me."
FIRE IN PRILADELPHIL—The extensive
foundry of Messrs. Merrick and ;Sons, occu
pying a censiderable portion of the square
bounded by Fourth & Fifth streets, and Wash
ton avenue and Federal street was consumed
by fire on the night of the 17th inst. For a
time a much more general conflagration ,
seemed to be threatened, but the energy of
the Fire Department conquered the - peril.
A vast amount: of machinery, and valuable
work in various stages of readiness, were con
sumed in the buildings of the Messrs. Mer
rick. The loss is estimated at $75,000, for
tunately pretty well covered by insurance.
A few persons were somewhat burned, dut
no lives were lost.. There is no doubt re
specting the origin of the fire.• The spiggot
of a cask containing varnish had been care
lessly left: running, making a puddle of the
liquid upon the floor of the paint-shop,
which contained an abundance more of in
flammable material, and into that puddle a
man accidently dropped a burning lamp.

of others.
I do this more readily in regard taMoofland's Gor

years, under the impression that they were chiefly an
alcoholic mixture. lam indebted terns friend, Robt.

proper tests, and for encouragementto try them, when
suffering-from great and long continued debility.' The
use of three bottles of these Bitters. at the beginning

and restoration to a degree of bod ily and mental vigor
which I had not felt for six months before, and had
almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank

REV. CHARLES: A, SMITH, D.D.,
PRINCIPAL.
This Seminary has been in satiessful operation for
Several years at N 0.1530 Arch Street. A new locality
has been'selected, not only because it-is more central
in its relitions to the most densely populated portions
of the city, but also because the school-rooms are un
usually largo and airy, and admirably adapted to the
purposeto which they are designed.
To the present and former patrons of the school it is
needless to speak of its advantages. To others, who
desire to send their daughters to a first-class institu
tion, it will be enough to say, that the design of this
school is to educate, in the only true sense. To secure
this end, thoroughness is aimed at in all the branches
pursued, so that the scholar may understand the
principle involved in every investigation.
The classes are arranged in three departments:—
Primary, Academic, and Collegiate. There are sepa
rate and am pl e accommodations for primary pupils, as
well as for those belonging to the higher departments.
All the departments are subject to the same discipline
and general supervision.
Circulars containing Course of Study, and other in
formation. may •he obtained at the Presbyterian
House, 1334 Chestnut street; also, at 1226 Chestnut
street, or address Box 2611, Post Office. Philadelphia.
• The nest session will commence on MONDAY, SeP

The rooms will be ready for examination about the
first of September.
