Rights op Married Women.— On the first page of this days Volunteer we publish a law passed by the late Legislature of a most interesting and important character—w.e refer to the act in regard to the rights of married women. Thp subject has agitated the Legislature for someyms past, but has never before been embodied into a law. Wo trust tiial it may have a fair trial, and that our courts may give it such constructions as will' tend to strengthen it instead of weakening-it in the eyes of,the.people. If it has defects therein be cured-hereafter, but wo should regret to see.its total repeal. ... Tub Foreign News. —We give in to-days paper os much in detail as our limits will permit, the highly important .intelligence received by lho Sardh Sands. Although no grand national movements are recorded, (he evidence is nnmistakcable of tho advance, of that revolutionary spirit before which kingdoms and prin cipalities teller and Tull. Italy is in u blaze, while (he attitude assumed by Prussia, Austria, and Russia, lead to the belief tha t wo are oh the evo of a long, general, and sanguinary.war. Notwilhstandingtb/ financial embarrassments, the news from Franco is of a highly satisfactory character. Affairs in Eng land wear a.troubled aspect Ireland appears to be ripe for revolt I. . (Ej*Capt. William F, Small, who has been doing duty as a civilian in the State Senate during (ho ses. eion just closed, has been ordered to join his Regiment about the 23d ofMey, at which time his-leavo of ab. Bcenco expires. Capl. Small has boon an applicant for promotion to tho rank of Colonel in the regular Army, but we have not yet had the pleasure of seeing his appointment announced In the public prints. Militi£ Trainings.— A letter from the Brigade Inspector of the Ist Brigade, Ist Division, stales that he is informed by Auditor General Purvianco (hat (ho bill abolishing, militia .trainings, after passing the Senate, Was lost in (he House. The Brigade Inspec tor adds. the following comments:—“ From the ex perience I have had for some years past, I am per. fectly satisfiqd of the utter folly and absurdity of these 4 militia' trainings,' and am equally well satisfied that nine-tenths of the whole community ore deci dedly averse to them. They ought .to bo abolished, and could be, if the public papers would take the matter in hand during ihu session of our Legislature, and 1 sincerely hope they will do so during the next session.”, . Important Legal Decision. —ln the case of Ran dall Huchinson, the Mint Defaulter, Judge Grier has overruled Judge. Kane, deciding that the acts of Congress against embezzlement do not reach (be case of tho defendant; that (he indictment could not be supported by them, and a new' trial must be granted. Wo understand that it is the intention of the District Attorney, after the expression of this auUiorativo opinion', to enter a nol.proi, t as there are.no grounds upon which a conviction can now be urged. Thus tho rouge who steals thousands, by a legal quibble, is suffered to go clear; while tho wretch who pilfers a loafofbrcad, must pay the utmost penalty of the law, without demurrer. - Crarlcs true bill hat been found against Charles Langfeld, charged with the murder ofMrs. Redemacher, by the Grand Jury now silting for Philadelphia county. Owing to the excitement ■till existing in relation to tills, tragical occurrence, his trial will be postponed until the next term. Right enough—when a man's life is at stake, no matter how honlous the crime for which ho stands charged, justice and mercy demond for him a calm and im . partial hearing. CO" Judge Patton of Pittsburg, has depided that when's man becomes an hnbi(nn) drunkard after ro. ceiving on apprentice, il is sufficient cause for (he apprentice to claim a discharge from his indentures. Baltimore, April ID.-*-Tbe City Whig Convention which assembled here to select Delegates to the Stale Convention, was fully attended.

James Bu ohsnan, to the great war meeting, held in Philudc). phia in January lost: “ I never, full more proud of Mr. Buchanan than after rending that letter. There is but one opinion hero in regard to It and its author, and that is one of praise and admiration. Let him only rumuin (rue to (ho views so beautifully foreshadowed in the clo sing paragraph of the letter, and his reward will bo a rich ono Indeed.” The National Convention.—Wo perceive that several of the Democratic journals differ aa to (ho time of holding (he National Convention..

Scott has befogged and belittled him self. So far as the letters complained of in the Now Orleans Delta arc concerned, tho only proof commit ting Gen*. Pillow in regard to them, is that they were written byhis intimate friends. On the examination of Col Hitchcock, & member ofOcn. ScottVstoff, and high in his confidence, the fact pamo out that since the celebrated order of Gen. Scott against the Tam pico letter, that officer, Col. Hitchcock, had written a letter (o a friend, in New York, with the expectation that its contents would bo used as a reply to the let ters which eulogized Gen. Pillow 1 The letter of Gen,. Scott's aid and friend was accordingly publish ed in full, against a general officer under arrest, and filled with biller abuse of him! But worse than this. This letter, thus written, and a£nt off, was read to Gon. Scott himself, and hot disapproved—nay, was absolutely sent off with his implied sanction. This, it seems to os, is rather an ugly business for.tbc coin mandcr-in chief, when we reflect that it was a violu- lion of his own order, end an a Hack made upon a sol. dier under arrest by that very order. We give tho fol lowing extract from the examination of Col,. Hitch cock : - - ■ Q. —When you submitted or road, a part of that letter to Gen. Scott, did he not object to its publication, os being contrary to every rnio of military propriety; as conducing to prejudice tho public mind against an officer under arrest and wailing trial? A.—l did not stale to. Gen. Scott that the piper was intended directly for tho press—nor was it so intented—hence, 1 wrote with tho freedom of mere epistolary correspondence. The object was to pul the facts, as I Understood them, in the hands of a friend, to enable him, by a proper use of them, to meet what 1 considered us misstatements olrcady before the pub. lie, [Gen. Pillow again culled (he attention of the witness to the points of the question. Witness con tinued:]—Gon. Scott made no objections to- my wri. ting tho letter, or to tho use ofifc as designated; which design, I think, I stated to him. Q.—You have said, your object was to correct ‘er* ron In the public mind, and have now just said this < Idler was not intended for publication. How, then, did you expect to correct the errors, which you pro i fees to think had spread through the country by pub* lishcd letters, if this letter Wus a private one 7 A.—l have said, and say again, that I expected my friend to use the contents of the letter. I did not expect him to publish the letter. In writing it, 1 communicated what 1 believed to bo facts., Q.—Did you or did you not expect your friend to publish in the newspapers the letter you wrotnJiim 7 1 A.—l expected him to give the facta contained in it, by publishing them in his own way. >y Q.—Pending these charges, did no principle of justice or courtesy—no sentiments ofhonor—no sense of decency—suggest to you that it was improper, as it was dishonorable, thus to assault In on anonymous publication an arrested officer, about to be trlcd'npon the very mallers'discussed in that communication? A.—Although I suppose the object of the question is obtained by putting it upon the record, 1 answer in the first place—no; that the Inquiries which a let* tor might make would refer principally to one letter, known us the Leonidas letter, while in fact we had received at this place several letters or communica tions from several partsoftho United States, referring to the operations in this basin, calculated, as 1 be lieved, to mislead the public mind. I saw no Impro priety in endeavoring to stem the current likely to bo created by those communications, anil 1 wrote the | letter in question, intending to contribute towards that object. Q.—Has (ho witness never seen and read the char, ges against Gen. Pillow, and did ho not know'that nearly all the matters of assault upon Gen. Pillow, in his letter were embraced In Gen. Scott's charges against Gen. Pillow,? A.—l never read those charges, when completed, in their entire form, hut read parts of them, and per. haps tho whole, by rending separate specifications on seperate sheets at different times, when iu course of prepqrrition | and I cannot sty without a careful examination of (ho chagts.and the loiter, In what respect (hey touch the same subjects. Mr. Trist under Arrest.—To db sent Home.— The correspondent of tho Now Orleans Picayune, writing from Mexico, under date of March 23d, in speaking of tho tcstiniony of Mr. Trial, says. “You will perceive, oven'from his language, the bitter feeling of hostility ho has towards Gen. Pillow and tho President, but It was necessary to have hoard him give his mark his (one and cm* phusU—to measure (he fullness of this feeling. It la not known when his onlmosity to the President look root, but it has been by no means modified by the President's recent course towards him.

Tho writer says: The chances for pcaooaro becoming every day more doubtful, and even the Star, which paper was an ad vocate of peace, and 1 have no'doubt conscientiously believed that the Mexicans desired it, seems now to be in doubt. Tho Monitor thinks that a durable peace cannot bo made unless American troops remain in tho country, to sustain the Government The Goy ernmenl party js, of course, in favor of peace ? but. when we oomo to think that this parly - is composed of about one-eight of-the people, it can hardly be be lieved that this minority, which is held in power on ly by the presence of the American Army, can make a.peace winch will be respected by tho great mojori. ly which is adverse to it. I really think, like the Monitor, (hat peace cannot be made unless, we leave the army in tho country. The annexation parly, m tho places occupied by our troops, is becoming more and more formidable. Since tho armistice Is in force you can have no idea of the progress that parly has made. The Annexationists want nothing short of annex* alion. This party is composed of all tho Mexicans who have been employed by Our Government. These men are looked upon as traitors by their countrymen, who take, every opportunity tolnsDll them, whenever they, can do so with impunity. They sre threatened sometimes, and I have no doubt that their lives would bo in danger, should they remain in the country of* ter the doparturo of our troops.
