New Toek, Feb. 24—The steamer Hecla has
arrived from Liverpool with dates to r the loth inst.
The reported retreat of the Banes to Flensburg
is confirmed. They are ah o reported to have re
treated from there to Duppel, after a severe en
gagement.
There is great discontent at Copenhagen. The
Banish Commander-in-chief has been recalled.
An unreliable report prevails of a revolution at
Copenhagen.
The British Court of Exchequer in Chambers
has dismissed the appeal in the Alexandra case
ior lack of jurisdiction.
Livebpool, Monday, Feb. 9.—The sales of cot

[SECOND EESr ATCH. ]
The Judges of the Exchequer in the Chambers,
by a majority of one out ot seven, decided to dis
miss the appeal in the Alexandra case, on the
ground ot a want of jurisdiction. The case will
therefore be carried to the House of Lords.
The Parliamentary proceedings are unimp or.
tant.
Lord Palmerston said the Government had re
monstrated with Austria and Prnssia on the pro
clamation of the Buke of Angustenburg, and their
action placing behleswig-Holstein under their pro
tection. Prussia had adopted the disapproval of
the i dvance in Schleswig, and ordered its stop
page. Prussia had also positively declared that it
would respect Denmark.
The report that the Banes had retreated from
Schleswig is fully confirmed. They evacuated
the Bannerwerke and blew up the works at Mis
suDde. The Germans followed them to Fleusburg,
whence they also retreated towards Buppel.
There had been several severe engagements with
considerable losses on both sides.
The Germane secured, great booty and a large
number of guns and prisoners. According to*
some authorities the Banish possession of Schles
wig is probably ended, and the army will retreat
to J utland. Others assert that a formidable stand
will be made at Duppel wh*re the Banes, sup
ported by their fleet, nmy assume a strong posi
tion. There is great' excitement at Copenhagen
under these retreats. .
General De Meza, the Commander-in-Chief, and'
his chief of staff, have been recalled.
Atan extraordinary meeting of ihe Bigsrad, the
President of the Council said that the King was
not instrumental in the retreat. The proceedings
of the Commander were inexplicable. °
Jiwas reported in Paris that a revolution had
\ roken out in Copenhagen and that the Kiug had
embarked for England and the King of Sweden
was proclaimed. The statements are unreliable
and unconfirmed. Active naval preparations are
going on at Copenhagen.
The English journals continue very anti-Ger
man in tone. The conservatives hold Earl Bus
sell responsible for the Banish reveres.
Duke Fredcrick-hae been proclaimed at various
places in Schleswig.
The Paris Bourse closed flat. BentesGGf. 55c.
An engagement occurred on theGlh nearldstedt,
in which the Anstro-Prussian army was victo

Captain Borland arrived by a tugboat at ten
o’clock.nnd report, the ship to be in four fathoms
of water off Broad Cove, .lightly heeled dff- the
mein deck at low water is two feet under on one
side, and at high water Is seven leet under. Ho
think, she will hold together if the weather is
fair. The only way to get the cargo out is bv
divert, and taking her into .hallow water by lift
ing her.
The weather is thick and foggy,
Three mail bags were eared.
It is thought bat few passengers are lost, except
those in the swamped boat. Some of the firemen
probably perished.
The Bohemian was bnilt in 1659 and was a, 100
gross tons burden. On the British Register she is
clsssed A Ko. ,1.
From the statement of a passenger who came up
In boat No. 5, I learn that he was standing on
the deck at the time of the accident. The steamer
patted'the buoy, and the passengers thought it
waa the pilot-boat. Immediately after the steamer
struck, the boats were got out'salelv with the
exception of No. 2, which swamped. "No. 5 took
aboard .11 she could hold, including .everal who
jumped into the water to them. Being unable to
find a landing place, she was rowed up the
harbor, fche contained mostly cabin passengers,
and some steerage passengers whose names I do
not learn, with the exception of a Mr. Brown.
The mails saved were from Glasgow to New
York, from Glasgow to Cnlilornia, and one bag of
papere for Boston. The press despatches were
not saved. “

to gain admittance to the hall tickets will neces
sarily have to be procured in advance.

says the reason 'women so seldom stammer is be
cause they talk so fast—a stammerer bas got no

you see, one day, down on the Rappahannock’
our color sergeant wanted shaving, and as I
sometimes barberized for our fellows, I agreed
to do it for him. So we brought out theshar
mg tools and hot water. The sergeant sat
down on some knapsacks, and- very soon I had
him nicely lathered. I had finished each sid
of his face, and caught hold of his nose to cu
the beard off beneath it, when just as Iw»
prepared to use the razor, whiff! bang!

and when I went into camp again, the bow
had many a laugh with me about it; but I never
could get any of them to let me shave their
laces. They thought it rather dangerous fun.

A Southern Lotaiist. — W ehave mentioned
the death of Hon.'John E. Bonligny,~a Union
member of Congress from Louisiana—one of
the few Southern men who adhered to the
cause of the Union from the very; beginning,
at the sacrifice of all his property and great
numbers of his oldest and most devoted friends.
He was a man of ability and of high char
acter; and his action in this contest involved
sacrifices and losses on his part which
few of our Northern people can fully
understand." He leaves his family unprovided
for. His last efforts were to secure for them,
at the hands of the Committee on Private T.nrut
Claims in Congress, compensation for property
taken by the Government for public uses. At
the last Congress the was favorably con
sidered by the same committee, and thero
would seem to be special reasons of decided
force why it should receive prompt attention
from the present Congress. "We feel confident
that the peculiar circumstances of the case will
lead the committee to take as early action as
possible upon it.—A. Y. Times.

A Joes which had a Sejuocs Tshhisaiios'.
—Some silly young men think it is “a capital"
joke” to publish the marriage of two parties
who perhaps have no idea of uniting their
future lives. Often this is “done for fun,”
sometimes malrciohsly. Every newspaper is
liable to be imposed upon in this way, in spite
ofcall precaution. It is well for those who are
thus disposed to perpetrate a senseless joke to
know that the newspapers and the public have
some protection in the law. A few days since
a fraudulent marriage notice was sent to the
Boston Journal and the Taunton Gazette. The
matter was placed ,in the hands of Deputy
Sheriff Thayer, of Taunton, for investigation*
who traced the fraud to Samuel TV: Day, of
Mansfield. Day was arraigned before the Police
Court in Taunton oh Saturday, and pleaded
guilty to the charge. The case was continued
for two week?, at the request of the defendant,
for sentence. This case should be a warning to
others who are tempted by exuberant silliness
to violate the law, as well as the personal rights
of others. —Boston Journal.
Silver anb Gold bt thb Tos.—SUTer quar
ters and gold dollars hare so long been rare
curiosities in the States east of the Rocky
Mountains, that gold and silver by the ton has
a very fabulous sound to the masses. Even
nickel cents are hoarded, and shown to children
as “pretty coins,” if new and bright. Not so
with our “Silver State,” Nevada. - The Vir
ginia Territorial Enterprise of January 23d,
"says:—Yesterday morning Wells, Fargo & Co.
shipped thirty-two bags of bullion from-their
office in this city which weighed 2.343 pounds,
valued at $61,977. For the past three days
the shipments from this one office have
averaged $40,000 per day.
Knißn.—A Mr. Gregory, an engineer on
the Reading Railroad, employed in running a
“pusher,”was killed on the siding that leads to
Steam Forge, on Saturday, by
coming in collision with another engine, which
happened to be on the same track unknown to
him. He attempted to jump, and fell under
the other engine, by which he had a leg cut off,
and received other injuries from which he died;
He was a resident ot Sixth street, in this city.
—Reading Gazette.
Tes 'Vxraxoo On. Trad*. —The Oil City
Register, in its review of the oil trade for last
week, says: “The market has been active for
the past week, and a considerable amount has
changed hands at prices slightly higher. Tho
advance we consider mainly legitimate, and
consequent upon the favorable news from
Europe, and enhanced quotations in New York.
The dally production of oil at present we esti
mate at scarcely 4,000 barrels! There have
been no new wells of consequence struck
lately. The shipments from the wells to the •
railroad have been considerable, during the
past ten days, thus lessening the amount held
in tanks along Oil Creek, which we estimated
last week at from 35,000 to 40,000 barrels. We
give as the ruling quotations, s4a4 50 at the
wells, and ssas 25 per barrel, at this point.
We heard of one sale on Tuesday, on the Ham.
HcClintoek Farm, at $4 76 per barrel, but this
was above the market price. The market
closes firm with a decided upward tendency
and a good demand.”
Schoson-Gexeeal Haumoxb’s Case.—The
eourt-martial of General Hammond is still pro

for the Government is nearly, concluded.
There are between thirty and forty witnesses
for the defence,among whom are the Secretary
of War and Dr. Joseph R. Smith, Gen. Ham
mond’s chief assistant, now Medical Director
of the department in Arkansas. It will pro
bably be three or four weeks before the exami
nation concludes.
. Cotton Plantations.— Owing to the ad
vance in cotton, caused by the war, its cultiva

treasury agent in’Louisiana has raised tha
regulated wages of the freedmen to $25 per
